lol, Koerner hasn't pitched in 16 days. He’s been standing in a corner…

Gallo has def helped this team though even in games he doesn't hit much hes usually on base or he has saved runs in the field cause of his arm. I sure don’t want Gallo sitting. He’s miles ahead of Stanton in the field. Some commented earlier that .210 hitters don’t normally bat 3rd, which is very true. But most .210 hitters don’t have 40 HR power, nor lead the majors in BB…We have to remember that he’s not exactly seeing fastballs grooved down the middle, and a pitcher that pitches around him is adding a base runner while still facing heavy lumber behind him… Actually I gave Gallo too much credit, he's a .160 hitter with the Yankees, batting 3rd. I've seen Gallo swing though plenty of fastballs down the middle, including tonight. Swinging and missing is what he does best.

I knew that cat was a Yankee fan. He wasn’t even a black cat, and look what he did to the Orioles. Maybe those tabby stripes were actually pinstripes?

Playoff implications:
Toronto lost 4-1 Seattle lost 12-3 A's lead 4-1 in 7th Rays lose 7-5 Red Sox win 6-0
So that puts it at:
Rays 48 losses Astros 50 losses * White Sox 51 losses * Yankees 52 losses A's 53 losses (Yankees lead season series 2-1, 4 left) could be 54 if Giants come back Red Sox 54 losses + Seattle 57 losses * Toronto 57 losses (6-6 season series, 7 left)
*= Yankees have clinched season series vs these teams + = Yankees cannot win season series vs these teams

At four games behind Tampa with 39 left to play this has become a fight for the division title as much as a fight for the wild card. Win or lose, this has been a remarkable run at this point. If the Yanks take the division, it’ll be historically significant…

Plus, the other side of the equation with our competitors cooperating by losing more often than we have. What we have to beware of is that we also may have another one of those 9-15 stretches ahead of us. I we do, it all goes back to the way it was at mid-season…
