NY Yankees

Last night's loss was the 11th walk off loss by the Yankees this year. That's 1/6 of their losses.

If it's a road game and it's tied in the 7th inning or later, I just assume the Yanks will lose.

Heliot starting to hit. Bellinger and Garcia are struggling now. Lombard just crushed a home run after Heliot tattooed one. And now Jones goes 450 feet to dead center. All off Corbin Burnes. Yanks up 4-1.

Should've never reduced Paul Goldschmidt's playing time.

**** this Yankees bullpen. Hendrick walks in a run then gives up a grand slam. 3 inherited runners score and 2 more of his own. I thought it pissed me off until I saw Will Warren's reaction. Will had a 3 run lead. Boone is such a poor handler of pitchers. Every time a starter gets in a little trouble in the 5th inning here comes Boone to yank him and the reliever Boone calls on invariably gives up the lead. Over and over and over. It's Ground Hog Day. Our pen is only effective when no one is on base when they enter.

A loss today really makes next week’s four-game series with the Rays immaterial. If we are being honest, the season kind of ended when judge went down again. It’s hard not to call him injury-prone at this point. And I hear you about the Yankees ‘ conditioning staff, but he’s a grown man whose job it is to play professional baseball. If he wasn’t prepared, a lot of the blame has to go on him.

The Yankees baby their players because of the salaries and these guys with the big salaries have no fear of losing their jobs. I grew up in a different era than these pussies of today. We played hurt like hell and never thought about it. It was our job. Stanton has sat out all year with calf strains? Give me a break. Judge's rib injury was in a really bad spot, but muscle tightness in the calf? Really? No sympathy from me. I can't tell you how many Yankees players I've heard since the George Steinbrenner era saying they could play but were put on the IL or if it was the playoffs they could play. And I've said it so many times. These guys are too muscular. They don't need bulk muscle they need lean muscle. They aren't boxers or football players.

And yes, it's time to get ready for Boston in the wild card. All that Boone resting of players all year didn't help one bit. NOW IS WHEN YOU CAN START RESTING PLAYERS ON A ROTATING BASIS BECAUSE YOU FAILED AGAIN TO WIN THE DIVISION WITH YOUR DUMBASS MANAGING.

Sorry. I'm done now.

We were never going to catch the Rays anyway so securing the wildcard series at home was what we needed to do and have done. Now just get everything lined up to win that series and then get a shot at the Rays.
