Nestor Cortes remains injured, but Caleb Durbin - a cog in the winter trade for closer Devin Williams - is now playing for the Brewers.
The Yankees love to proclaim themselves "winners" in every trade. With Nestor out and Durbin at Triple A, it was an easy gaslight. Now...
We'll see...

IMHO, Durbin has a solid MLB career ahead of him.
Cabrera can’t handle 3B. Back to the bench.
Fried seems to be pitching well. Ca$hole played blind hog for once.
Worse luck than Harvey Haddix, though.
Max-imum Fried today. Great play by Chisolm preserved thr no-no
4-0.... please, no Devin....
Cruzin’
Can't make it too easy
Then the overturning of the error call by the official scorer - classy move
Max is even better than advertised
What, no final call of the game? The Yankees WIN! Thhhhhhhhhhhuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhh Yankees—win!
Couldn't watch it, due to a family obligation (Happy Easter to all who celebrate, and just to break my own rule about politics on the blog, I have to say as one who celebrates that the president's Easter message was the most disgusting, sacrilegious thing ever sent out by an American leader.).
But I digress...
Um, could Rob Manfred's MLB be more MiLB? I don't think so. A call reversed two innings later, in a no-hitter? That ridiculous call on Judge's home run? That joke of a ballpark?
All disgraceful. But hey, at least The Airbender didn't see action.
How can they reverse an error to a hit on the basis of "what might have happened" ? Goldschmidt makes an error, the scorer can't assume that a faster runner would have beaten the pitcher to the bag (perhaps the pitcher slowed up after hearing the first baseman cursing because of his error...). I personally never heard of something like this. I live about an hour and a half from Tampa and got to watch their feed. Their announcers started yapping that the ruling should overturned on that stupid premise, then started to speculate that if Fried gave up one hit the call would be reversed. And bam! It happened. And Judge's homer that wasn't, you would almost have to start thinking nasty thoughts. Like "fix". But the commissioner stopped that kind of thing back in 1919.
Ridiculous Wretched Reprehensible Rubbish
