    This lineup was the one I thought would be on the field this year.

    Never envisioned the actual lineup for game 2 today.
    At least 4 of the players were not starters or even in the major leagues.
    And again the Yankees start the game with a relief pitcher, Chad Green.
    Hope the team did not score their quota in game 1 for the day. They will need run production tonight.

    The good thing is that they didn’t have to use anyone important in the early game.

    Bosox 6 Consecutive Losses, longest losing streak of the year.

    12.5 back, 10-11 in the 2nd half.
    4-8 vs Yankees

    Have NEVER been in 1st place this year and their odds to win the AL Pennant are non-existent, barring The Parting of the Red Sea and a 40-day flood, "feats don't fail me now"...!!

    Bosox Odds 1.7% to win AL East
    3.7% to win ALCS
    0.4% to win World Serious

    Yanx Odds 28.1% to win AL East ??? Hmmm
    51.5 % ALCS
    14.4% W.S.

    Ass-tros
    31.2% AL West

    56.8% ALCS
    15.4% W.S.

    LA Bums
    20.9% to win the W.S.
    39.0% NL West
    61.2 NLCS

    These odds honestly don't make much sense

    This team did get a few surprises position player wise this year and they all turned out pretty damn good much to Yankee Fans surprises. Per MLB network las night Sanchez was supposed to be re-activated guess that did not happen. Stanton, do not miss him at all. In my view it is highly improbable for either the Yankees or Boston to accomplish a 4 game sweep of each other but not impossible. Yankees owe Boston for that 4 game sweep in Fenway during the '18 Season. A win tonight or tomorrow would give the Yankees a win for this series.

    It's absolutely absurd. As soon as they get people back more get hurt. Every injury isn't the same but it took Judge seven weeks to get back from a wrist fracture.

    What’s the up to date status on Giancarlo Ellsbery?

    Looks like runs are at a premium tonight. No clutch hits yet.

    I do not think Ellsbury will be back this year. And that may be a good thing!
    Giancarlo not ready, maybe September.

    One thing for sure, they’re getting paid to do nothing! The new American way!

    Ellsbury is laughing all the way to the bank, no doubt he'll be joined by GianK.

    Stanton Hirt his knee in June. He could have had surgery and been back already. What the hell is the deal with him. He’s in the dugout every game.

    It’s called being “pampered”.
