I guess they were right to get rid of Nestor

Nestor in World Series form

Hinkey Haines said...

Boone seems to have figured out how to pick lead-off hitters.

BTR999 said...

Gonna be a high scoring game.

BTR999 said...

Bad throw by Volpe, but Goldschmidt waved at it like a little leaguer.

BTR999 said...

More little league D

Doug K. said...

Error on Fried as well. WTF

Joe of AZ said...

Our defense is ALSO in world series form 😒

No pouty-face from Fried….

I saw footage from the security camera at Jane's from yesterday afternoon, including Happy Hour. I'll be damned, Pete Hesgeth was pounding down martinis as fast as the bartender could make them. Next thing you know, some commenters will be confronted by hooded, masked ICE agents while walking their dogs.

A GD GS for 99

So much for my prediction that Judge would get off to a slow start. Two games, two homers. Actually, one game, plus three innings, two homers.

They threw him two cookies though. He should've hit those, and he sure hit the hell out of them.

The Hammer of God said...

Volpe hit out to left field. Uh oh, watch for a big slump upcoming as he starts to pull off on everything.

The Hammer of God said...

Who the hell is Pablo Reyes? They're platooning him with Cabrera? Methinks it'd be better just to try to develop Cabrera's right handed swing. But that's just me.

I think we might win this one.

Judge. My God.

ranger_lp said...

I think Fried has enough runs...

Joe of AZ said...

Not if the defense has its say 🙄

BTR999 said...

The fact that they started Reyes over Peraza tells you how little they value Peraza. They should option him if he has no role, and if another team claims him, so be it. Let the poor bastard go.

BTR999 said...

Fried fried today.

Cole Fried and Rodon bout to go out for drinks and mourn over their defense 😂

You've got to be kidding

Picked the wrong day to sleep in.

I hope YES does the replay.

The Missus just asked if I was watching football.

Yankees Win!!!

BTR999 said...

Haiku Saturday for this one

It was quite a game
It was a little sloppy,
But who can complain

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Bench Volpe! He's only batting. 250

Doug K. said...

Well that was fun. Maybe we should collectively vow to never watch another game and go out on top!

Picked the wrong day to see an Opera

AboveAverage said...

I’m AA and I approve Saturday Haikus

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Was Enrico Palazzo singing?

JM said...

I think it was Rodolfo Lassparri.

From X: Looks like our MIT analytics guy invented it...

Yes, the Yankees have a literal genius MIT Physicist, Lenny (who is the man), on payroll. He invented the “Torpedo” barrel. It brings more wood - and mass - to where you most often make contact as a hitter. The idea is to increase the number of “barrels” and decrease misses.

Kind of reminds me of this...
