His helmet cannot keep up
Tie the damn thing down; August 27, 2024 at 11:44 AM
AboveAverage said...: nicely done; August 27, 2024 at 11:58 AM
JM said...: Jerk "Athletic" guy
Says Judge can't play center
Fuck off, you moron; August 27, 2024 at 12:15 PM
Pocono Steve said...: Volpe: great speed and
defense guy. If only he
could get on base more.; August 27, 2024 at 12:16 PM
JM said...: Further clarification on Hamilton: "since he’s already spent 60 days on the IL, this is just a procedural move. He can be activated at any time if the Yankees decide that he’s ready; they’ll just need to make a 40-man move at that point."; August 27, 2024 at 12:17 PM
Pocono Steve said...: Nestor was lucky.
That game could have been sucky.
Sans Judge's magic.; August 27, 2024 at 12:18 PM
AboveAverage said...: That play in center yesterday secured Judge the 2024 MVP (not that there was ever much doubt prior to that play in center yesterday). Oh and nice Haiku, JM.; August 27, 2024 at 12:18 PM
AboveAverage said...: lucky and sucky - together again for the first time on any record!; August 27, 2024 at 12:20 PM
JM said...: Lucky and Sucky...weren't they an x-rated wrestling tag team?; August 27, 2024 at 12:27 PM
JM said...: Thanks. Had to put a little effort into that one.; August 27, 2024 at 12:38 PM
AboveAverage said...: Their manager's name was "Long-time Bucky"; August 27, 2024 at 12:41 PM
AboveAverage said...: I briefly wished that I owned a fitted Yankees cap (New Era 39THIRTY flex hat L/XL) with the words Elephant Stool Cashman Drool stacked and centered along the bottom center of the back of the cap. Than the feeling . . . passed.; August 27, 2024 at 1:00 PM
JM said...: A simple Cashman Sucks would suffice.; August 27, 2024 at 1:42 PM

Coming into today Jasson Dominguez was hitting .464/.531/.571 with a 198 wRC+ in his last 7 games.

He’s 2-3 tonight with a double and a 105.3 MPH, 408 ft homer.

Alex Verdugo has a .500 OPS since mid-June; August 27, 2024 at 2:39 PM
JM said...: Obviously posted a couple days ago.; August 27, 2024 at 2:39 PM
AboveAverage said...: when can teams expand their rosters?; August 27, 2024 at 2:49 PM
BTR999 said...: Sept 1st; August 27, 2024 at 3:13 PM
AboveAverage said...: Gracias; August 27, 2024 at 3:45 PM
JM said...: Germany attacks Poland September 1st to officially start WWII. That's how I always remember.; August 27, 2024 at 5:32 PM
AboveAverage said...: I just had to double check that you didn't type WWIII - you did not - just in case you were wondering. . . .; August 27, 2024 at 5:55 PM
Doctor T said...: Marinaccio?
No, sorry, that will not do
More Will Warren? Grrr....; August 27, 2024 at 7:36 PM
ranger_lp said...: Looks like no-star Cole showed up…; August 27, 2024 at 7:43 PM
JM said...: I thought Washington sucks and Corbin really sucks and Cole is back to form. Huh.; August 27, 2024 at 7:55 PM
JM said...: So that guy was in our organization for seven years? And we let him go. Of course.; August 27, 2024 at 8:08 PM
JM said...: Nice defense, Trevino.; August 27, 2024 at 8:22 PM
JM said...: Nice defense, Jazz.

Nice defense, DJ; August 27, 2024 at 8:23 PM
JM said...: Fucking hell.; August 27, 2024 at 8:23 PM
Copelius said...: DJ says hold muh beer; August 27, 2024 at 8:23 PM
JM said...: More great defense, Trevino.; August 27, 2024 at 8:26 PM
JM said...: Pathetic.; August 27, 2024 at 8:26 PM
Platoni said...: "I thought Trevy had a couple of nice throws on those steals. The ball got there before the runners."

- Aaron Boone; August 27, 2024 at 8:31 PM
Copelius said...: According to the crack catcher John Flaherty, Trevino did nothing wrong in the 6th. Just bad reaction on DJ and Gleyber.; August 27, 2024 at 8:33 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: No way this is a championship team.

Signed: Captain Obvious; August 27, 2024 at 9:23 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: JM,

I was in Poland 15 years ago on September 1st.

Had no idea, but quickly learned.

They're not real keen on Americans but they positively, absolutely hate the Germans and the Russians. Something about continued invasions pisses them off.

Surprisingly good sushi in Poznan. Strange world.

Great bad for you food there.; August 27, 2024 at 9:31 PM
DickAllen said...: Was I imagining things? Did Boooooone actually let two right-handed hitter face a righty when he had four lefties sitting on the bench?; August 27, 2024 at 10:53 PM
AboveAverage said...: I do believe that we all are imagining things, DICKALLEN; August 28, 2024 at 1:42 AM
