Chase Whitley remember his debut game for the Yankees against Jacob De Grom debut for the Mets. Yankees won the game but Whitley never did well, Now the man is with Tampa Bay and every time he pitches this team can't do shit against him.
When hicks comes back frazier must stay up. They can send wade down who stinks and take at bats from halliday who has been awful for awhile. Rotate hicks once he's ready, judge and gardy in dh spot with halliday
This was an important victory for the Yankees. Why? TANAKA. This game was vintage Tanaka........ You know, the one that's been missing the whole year! He was in control from the git-go. And it could be the game that catapults the team into first place.
I bet that Clint Frazier will make it very tough for Cashman to send him down to Scranton when Hicks comes back. I'd rather they send Cooper down. I'm pulling for the Red headed Bomber!
Tanaka you old 2017 under achiever, whale of a game, enjoy some sushi & sake at your post game spread. Tanaka got in there took charge and held on until the offense finally got him some runs. The Yankees are at a point to win or sweep this series.
He's become a fan favorite. An outfield of Judge, Frazier, and Hicks is as good as any in baseball. I'd rotate Gardner between 4th outfielder & DH to rest days and get Gardber ABs. Ellsbury would be benched or do running duty. As Girardi said, play the best, bench the rest.
Royals knock the Red Sox out of first place! Yankees say 'thank you' and stymie the Rays, 6-1.......... and it was not that close!
