As you all know I am of the opinion that the ball has been juiced for this series.
This means two things.
One: The balls go further. Duh.
Two: It doesn't respond the same way to the pitcher. Meaning they don't have the same control and command as they would with a regular ball.
Because of this, the better pitcher, Yamamoto, who has dominated the Yankees, will struggle more as the ball doesn't go where he wants and the Yankees will score on him big time!
"He surrendered seven runs on 10 hits in 6⅓ innings across two starts for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and has not pitched since May 18, making him available to give the Yankees length"

Does this mean they will win? No. But they might.
And then we can all be happy.

Thank you Doug 🙂 !
Delete(I of course did revisit and sample a few episodes of R&S whilst mining for tonight’s game thread.
John K was OK in my book
Currently 5-1
ReplyDelete6-1
ReplyDeleteCale I mean Ryan Yarbrough has pitched great for us…
ReplyDeleteKale is also a super food 🥬
ReplyDeleteWilliams for the flush?
ReplyDeleteI swear, Booooone is going to ruin Lasagna. Guaranteed he’ll be back in the IL before July.
ReplyDeleteIt will be Paul Quantrill 2.0
DeleteDJ is back…
ReplyDeleteOne can only hope.
DeleteYankees Win!!!
ReplyDeletePennies from heaven.
ReplyDeleteDon’t believe any of the positive feelings that you may be feeling from tonight’s win.
ReplyDeleteThis team will still let you down.
That said - the Yankees did in fact win.
The Yankees Won.
Yet somehow my contempt for booone grows , even in victory
ReplyDeleteHe brings in Lasagna to face a few righties, then brings in Williams to pitch to a handful of lefties. Does Boooooone live in an alternate reality?
ReplyDeleteSeems more sane to use Williams to pitch to all the right-handed hitters in the seventh, then bring in Lasagna in the eighth to pitch to Ohtani.
What a world we live in. Am I crazy or does Boooooone not have any idea how to handle a bullpen?
He has no idea.
DeleteNone.
Boone is an idiot. We won, anyway.
ReplyDeleteWeaver injured, Martian injured. Well, that's par for the course, too.
ReplyDeleteThe Fans are also injured….
DeleteWeaver was injured? Missed that.
ReplyDeleteJesus, Carrasco again?
ReplyDelete"He surrendered seven runs on 10 hits in 6⅓ innings across two starts for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre and has not pitched since May 18, making him available to give the Yankees length"
You’re not questioning Cashman, are you JM?
