Most of you know, from experience and evidence, that I am close to infallible when it comes to predictions.
I said we would win 85 games this year, for example, and we did.
So here is gist for the mill :
Our rookie manager will name Luis Severino as the Yankees starting pitcher in the one-game play-in against Oakland.
My reasoning derives from Mr. Boone's pre-designation logic for naming Gary Sanchez as the starting catcher.
Here it is: Luis is our ace. Boone has designated him as our ace. As such, he will start the game and pitch at a high level of efficiency. That's what aces are for and that's what aces do.
He believes, similarly, that Sanchez is a great hitter, and a great catcher, waiting to break free. So he supports Gary.
And he will support Severino in the same manner. " He is our Ace !"
Listen to the music.
Anyone who wishes to discuss may reach our help line at; 1-800-IDIOYT ( note minor misspelling).

I predict Sevy doesn't go more than 4 innings. Book it.
NOT TOO LONG AGO, SEVY PITCHED AGAINST OAKLAND, AND GOT POPPED....REALLY BAD TOO...
WHY TAKE THE CHANCE AGAIN?
TANAKA IS THE CHOICE.
I WOULD EVEN GO WITH HAPP BEFORE SEVY AGAINST THIS TEAM.
We have bullpen enough to keep any starter on a short lead. Put two men on? Grab some bench.
Why is Neil fucking Walker and his .656 fucking OPS hitting fifth fucking tonight!?
Wow. That was some amazing profane fucking JuJu just there.
I was thinking the same thing, TWW! :)
I dunno, I think the playoff starter is a real question. Maybe you DO start Severino, because Tanaka probably has a better chance to beat Sale? Or do you just say 'Nobody's beating Sale,' and put Sevvy in because of that?
In general, I think anyone of the Yankees' Big Three is perfectly capable of getting beat up by the A's.
Well, I again must quote Stephen Foster: "Masa's in de cold cold ground."
Quoting Stephen Foster is a fairly dangerous activity. Especially in Newark.
Did anyone notice that Boston won its matinee with the O's this afternoon... 19 to 3? David Price took the win.
Please tell me they're not going to send Masa back out for another whipping. Maybe some Lasagna? Goes well with Ice Cream Sandwiches.
I see ICS has reverted to mean. Or is it Mendoza?
19-3? Who scored the safety?
Wow, the JuJu giveth and the JuJu taketh.
As far as strategy goes, the post season is simple. You have a game? You must win that game. There is no looking ahead. It isn't early July heading into the All-Star break. There is no setting up a rotation. There is no planning ahead. You go with your best option in the game right in front of you and hope someone pulls a Don Larsen.
Dammit! I should have been bird watching instead watching Rachel. There was a brief Bird sighting? Yes? No? Sorta?
Pinch hitter for about 30 seconds. I think. I have Rachel on, too!
I switched to recordings of "Lodge 49" and "Mr. In-Between." Both mediocre, but at least none of the lighting systems collapsed because the director had a new theory about lighting.
Ah, the thrilling baseball of the future! It's so exciting, you can't keep your eyes on it!
Well, the good news is that Stanton did NOT break Judge's single season team strikeout record. The bad news is that he has managed to leave five men on base already.
His 17th GIDP of the season, by the by. Just thought you should know.
Well now. This is a very sad sad night.
I watching videos about old firearm mechanicals. I can't take this shit.
That is, incidentally, a career high in DPs for Stanton, to go with his career high in strikeouts.
Also, Ma didn't start El Conquistador—still in his deep, endless second-half slump—because of hip tightness. But he did pinch hit him. Right. That makes total sense in what is probably a meaningless game.
What channel are the firearms mechanics on, Warbler? I even switched to the Mets game at one point.
It was like going into an alternate dimension, in which people miraculously knew how to play the infield. Spooky.
Tyler Wade up with winning run on base?
Has any one else noticed the VERY UNDERWHELMING season Robertson has had he's BLOWN allot of games. I feel he gets a free pass alot because of his history with the team and apparently he learned the cutter from Mariano...
Miggy.
Foul pop out. First freaking pitch.
Jesus.
A wild day in Beantown -
- Game One: Redstockings 19 - Balmore Birds 3
- Game Two: Redstockings 3 - Balmore Birds 10
So yeah - up and down the East Coast, a lot of a poor players, strutting and fretting. Tales told by idiots, full of sound and fury, signifying...
NOTHING.
Call 1-800-IDIOYT
Post scriptum: Oakland and Seattle 2-2, bottom of the 4th
Oh - for the one-season-in-one-night which, I assume will take place in Oakland a week from tonight. what time will it start?
Call 1-800-SCROTUM and then ask for “Doctor Pineapple.” Tell him you want “the special cleanse.”

I thought 1-800-SCROTUM put me through to Brett Cavanaugh. Or is that 1-800-SCROTUS?
I love Houdini, Joe F., but you're right. While he has given us some big games, he has also been much more erratic this season than he usually is.
Often, this is caused by fatigue in relief pitchers. And, sue enough, at 33 he has already pitched more innings than he ever has in a season.
So...why is out here throwing innings in fairly meaningless games?
Thanks for the morning recap, all. Far more fun that reading the box snore. I did a flyby listen last night in the middle innings - the Bird sighting.
Austria's Only Baseball Fan - you are stealing my "poor player" thunder! :-)
