I hope getting pushed to DH doesn't hurt Andujar's confidence. We have to understand that this team is completely built around Neil Walker. As Walker goes, so go the Yankees. What Neil needs, Neil gets... Neil walker is definitely not my favorite but he was one of our best hitters in July. Then inexplicably he sat. He can contribute if he keeps hitting.

Lopez was one of the young pitchers I suggested the Yankees should target earlier this year. As it turns out, he started pooping the bed about that time. I look for him to be a real good one long term. When a guy is as hard to square up as he is, I don’t mind a few extra walks...
If you don’t walk against him it’s awfully hard to score...

Is Romine hurt? It's strange that he's sitting the bench two games in a row. Higgy & Robinson in the same lineup makes the Yanks National League like. I don’t see why Robinson isn’t just sitting on the bench waiting for the team to need a pinch runner or defensive replacement. Does Boone have a plan here or is he just winging it?

He is trying to find a way to get Gardner some rest. I suggest waiting until between games might be a good way to go...

No. Boone said on the pregame that he just needs to find ways to get his players rest with this stretch of 21 games in 21 days. It was the same reason he gave for Gardner being off and for Andujar DHing today... Boone is absolutely obsessed with the idea of resting these players. I hope he doesn’t rest us out of the playoffs... ): I wish he was more obsessed with winning games. Thumbs up...👍

Robinson with a stupid base running gaffe. Every time I see a MLB player do this I want to beat him to a pulp. You should know better by the time your about ten years old...

When you run 5 sub-.250 hitters out there, it's tough to score runs. I wish Boone recognized that wins in July and August count as much as those in September.

Ump costs Yankees a strike out and throw out double play. Instead, two on, no outs.

CC gets out of the jam. Of course the Red Sox just came back against the Jays in the 8th
