    Pineda, Oh shit ......has he gone south in his progress. Like Eovaldi, has great velocity
    but not a clue where his pitches are going! Not a plan for a possible elite pitcher.
    What we wind up with is just a very ordinary pitcher. May wind up the same
    road taken by Ivan Nova......if he doesn't turn his game around.

    Yankees need much work on pitching. Every start from someone not named Tanaka means we look for a fold in the 5th or 6th, sometimes sooner. Ditto the "long" pen though it looks like Sevey and Warren are stabilizing that area. We know the Indians can mash, we know Pineda is pitching, end result could be lethal. Be nice to see the Yankees get two of three. Look for Cleveland to hustle though, the Tigers are chewing on their tails.

    Tex announcing his retirement must have Rick overwhelmed.

    Now 11-7 Yanks, and two runners on base for Cleveland....yeesh.
    Okay- Warren douses the fire. Minimizes damage after coming in with bases loaded and none out.
    Excellent job by Warren.

    Barbato sure can implode quickly. It all started with a walk.
    This kid has good strikeout stuff, but he also has serious control problems and loses command of his breaking ball.

    these wise guys picked one helluva time to pick up the pace; with their bats....everyone gets a hit day....

    or is the Pitching that bad....?

    If this 7/11 lead gets blown, there will be tickets given out to those who loiter the field....a DFA, or DUI....

    Strange shit tonight, two Yankee hitters drew IBB, Ellsbury ad some hits, ditto Tex, Castro with a salami, even Hicks had a bomb. As the Dells once sang, "Oh What A Night"

    Your right Michael, strange night indeed just proves to me how bad the middle relievers really are. Oh well at least they won.
