Once again, Yankees cannot afford to lose any more games started by their Ace!

Schlittler must cut down on the walks. And must pitch better at home.

Lombard's wRC+ has fallen drastically after his 1st game.

How can they bench Garcia? He's only Yankee with HR vs Fluharty!

Rosario gets start at 3B. What happens when Belli returns?

In the field, Ramos is the anti-Bellinger.

Ramos should play for the Mariners. He stoppeth one of three.

"Scattering The Ashes has all the feels. Paul Russell Semendinger's debut novel taps into every emotion. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll reexamine those relationships that give your life meaning." — Don Burke, writer at The New York Post

"This charming and meticulously researched book will remind you of baseball’s power to change and enrich lives far beyond the diamond."

—Jonathan Eig, New York Times best-selling author of Luckiest Man, Opening Day, and Ali: A Life

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
