Yankees are 1-5 vs these bums. Let's change that.

Rizzuto’s Reasonable Roster:
1. LeMahieu 2B 2. Stanton DH 3. Judge RF 4. Urshela 3B 5. Voit 1B 6. Torres SS 7. Higashioka C 8. Frazier LF 9. Gardner CF
Give me your your tired, your poor, your huddled masses of opinions of the lineup chosen by me. Of course, Boone usually has a much different order by game time.

But you know Boonie will throw in Hicks at 3rd or something stupid like that.

It’s about time to platoon Hicks against right-handed starters, though Boone will probably say he believes Cashman’s Guy is “close.”

Orioles beat the Red Sox last night so that leaves us in second place, percentage points ahead of these Rays, three games behind the Rex Sox, and two and a half ahead of the basement-dwelling Orioles. The Red Sox will be visited by the Oakland A’s. Anything could happen...

Interesting, Luke swings lefty with the light Sabre. I imagine it’s so light that his top hand comes off after the strike, leaving his dominant arm to continue to provide impetus. I’d recommend minimal weight shift in that scenario...Nothing longer than a four inch stride for certain. Warning: Catcher interference could have long term implications...for the catcher, of course. Ask half-Hans solo...

This Patino kid is very highly ranked, 5th best SP prospect on all of MLB. He’s a high velocity guy with a natural cut on his fastball without losing any of his 97-99MPH. He has a wipe out slider, a change good enough for now, and an occasional changeup.
That sounds like he’s got enough raw material to have us floundering for 1/2 the game... oh joy! ...

Oh, and Patino was the grand prize in the Blake Snell deal. You know, the zombie-like former ACE. Snell is still nasty this year in SD, but has only thrown 30 innings in 7 starts with 21 walks. He’s 1-0; 4.05. I’d rather be facing him today, to be honest...

Patino looks pretty nasty but he only went 56 pitches last start so let's get him outta the game early!

Let’s see 56, divided by nine... that’s 6.22 immaculate innings... maybe allow for him to stretch out to 63 pitches this time, so divided by nine... 7 immaculate innings and he’s gone! ... Montgomery pitches the first three perfect innings, gives up 2 in the 4th, then 2 in the 6th... we’re only down 4-0 in the battle of the bullpens... we get to bat in the 8th and 9th...we have a chance!... Another brilliant Boonie game plan!’...

Yankees are always the last team to release their lineups (for the same time games).

Uh, oh.
At least 5 Yankees coaches have tested positive for COVID-19, sources tell ESPN.
