Can the Yankees hit better than last night?
Yankees need to hire a pyromaniac -- to light a fire under them.
Major line-up shakeup: Torres and Judge flipped in batting order!!!!! That'll fix the Yankees.
Fangraphs has ATL at 66% winning chance.

NEXT UP: Fri, 8/18, 7 pm, vs Red Sox
Well, at least tonight they made it to the second inning before the Braves put the game out of reach.
With apologies to the Scooter I will be "NW" (Not Watching) again tonight.
Another jerry-rigged lineup card. Every night no one knows why or wherefore.
The Yankees have a chance, TONIGHT to do two big things:
A loss will give them five losses in a row. That would be their longest streak of the year!!!
2. A loss will put them under .500 for the first time this year.
I thought coaches and managers are supposed to fire a team up.
