And that thar new short stop fellow, he can’t hit .275 to save his life. Why last year he only hit .271… How dare you imply we might have good players, sir. I may have to leave this venue if you keep saying so! … You missed your chance to also say the requisite "It was just the lowly Orioles" Well, it was them, weren’t it??… |

Looking at the boxscore looks like we beat up on the Orioles. Deivi and Gil pitched well and we got good offensive contributions from Gallo, Stanton, DJ, Gleyber, and Falafel. And that thar new short stop fellow, he can’t hit .275 to save his life. Why last year he only hit .271… How dare you imply we might have good players, sir. I may have to leave this venue if you keep saying so! … At the third highest salary in the league we do have good players. We just don't have the caliber of players that are likely to win a WS or that you should have for the league's third highest payroll. |

Why should we care?… It’s not a game called Payday, or Monopoly. Players expect to get paid more to go under the microscope of NY. You mentioned yourself that you stayed with the state rather than take more money to work in private enterprise. There is a similarity here. Working in relative anonymous situations or being on the tabloid covers in NY. The Yanks pay premium salaries. It’s a good place to work, IF your constitution can take it… |

And he featured a bit of a new look, as he’s reverted some of his mechanics back to where they were in 2020. Garcia and pitching coach Matt Blake said the 22-year-old is using a more overhand delivery than he did a year ago, when the Yankees adjusted his arm slot — with disastrous results
“I think I’m more back to being myself,’’ Garcia said this week through an interpreter. “I’m trying to get back to a natural set of movements and not overthinking my mechanics.”
He called his current delivery “very close” to his 2020 version, when Garcia impressed in six appearances with the Yankees after skyrocketing through the system in 2019, when he reached Triple-A and put himself on the Yankees’ radar.

Considering how helpless he looked last year, if the ship can be righted that would be an astounding comeback! |

Yanks lose 5-3 to the Tigers but were playing their D lineup. By the boxscore Schmidt, Sears, Loaisiga, and Abreu pitched well but Joely Rodriguez stunk up the joint giving up 5 ERs in two thirds of an inning.

Wow, get all the suckiness out of you while the games don't count. |

Wow, get all the suckiness out of you while the games don't count. Joely is 30 now and still seems more like a marginal prospect than a bone fide MLB pitcher. He K’s plenty. He doesn’t walk a ton of guys. It seemed like he took a leap forward when he added an 87-88 MPH change up to go with a nice 94 MPH fast ball. He more or less ditched his slider for it, though he still tosses a slider once in a while… I hope this is just a rust-induced blip… |

Would be a massive, massive help to yet another questionable rotation - going on two decades. |

Would be a massive, massive help to yet another questionable rotation - going on two decades. Even in the greatest of seasons it’s been rare for the Yankees to have a great rotation. They’ve had Pennock and Whitey and Guidry, but they seldom have had a full complement behind them. It was simple, they paid for the firepower at the plate. They would often nab very good pitchers just as they were flaming out. It’s almost unthinkable that a team with 27 championships is not a team with multiple 300-game winners, or that we’ve never featured a 300 strikeout season. The full investment has never (okay, maybe seldom) been applied to the starting rotation… |
