    It’ll be tough to win this game. Indians have lost 3 consequetive games to one team twice, Minnesota
    and the A’s, in the first half of their schedule. Second half they were ‘lights out’. Big question is............
    will Biggie be on his game? Do not expect Kluber to be off in back to back appearances. I’m still hoping.

    ^^^the good news for the Yanx is that it will be "all hands on deck" if CC starts to falter.

    ...the Yanx have faced 3 elimination games in the last week...and they won ALL of them.

    Well that is the "A" line up, now if CC & Staff throws and "A" Game the Yankees stand a pretty good chance.

    As awful as this sounds, I'd also throw low at his feet to make him not feel comfortable planting at all on either foot. Make him have to hop away from some pitches.

    Great first inning. On the board first and CC with an easy inning. Keep it going in the top of the second.

    ...Judge is clearly hurting his team by being overly aggressive.

    Judge is too god damn far off the plate so low and away is wide open for him to swing and miss. He needs to move in and crowd the plate. Unreal how this keeps happening during his slumps and our coaches can't fix it.
