Is losing to Oakland going to become "a thing?"


Yeesh. We get every break in the book - (umps trying to make amends for LA?) - but still lose by six. At home. Six. At home. Six...

I'm not gonna go Chicken Little on you. Not on a hungover opening to Gleyber Day Weekend. But we better not get swept. At home. Swept... 

I'd like to think we're using a rope-a-dope: Let them punch themselves out, so we can take them in October. But it's been a while since anybody knocked around Tommy Kahnle. And their guy, Anderson, threw the perfect pitch every time he needed one.

We better not get swept. At home. Nope.

I've said this many times: The Yankees are a mirage. They will collapse in historic fashion and be lucky to make the wild card.



Fick dich Hal.

WE CAN'T FUCK UP HOME FIELD.

IF WE DO, THE WRITING WILL BE ON THE WALL.

2019 COULD BE OUR YEAR.

NOT IF WE LOSE HOME FIELD.

SIMPLE.

TIME TO BITCH ABOUT CC....AGAIN.

HIS INABILITY TO GIVE US ANY KIND OF QUALITY LENGTH JUST KEEPS KILLING US.

....AND THIS GOES BACK TO LAST YEAR.

I KNOW OUR BRASS WANTS HIM TO RIDE OFF INTO THE SUNSET WITH A WORLD SERIES CLINCHING PERFORMANCE, BUT THEY BETTER BE ABLE TO MAKE THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN FANTASY AND REALITY.

I was reading Bill Madden in the Daily News today and he was getting all effusive about how right Hal was not to make a trade for pitching given how poorly all the trade candidates are doing on their new teams. But, he conveniently, and disingenuously left out the one pitcher who could have been had just for $$$$$ and is doing great.

Also, I did not notice a "YANKS LOSE TO OAKLAND AGAIN!!!!" headline. At least it's being acknowledged here. Instead it's all about CC.

Meh!
