Okay, since Luke Weaver got the job done today, should they make him the Closer now?


I think the Closer (for the rest of this season) could be either Luke Weaver or Jake Cousins.


OR.....Maybe they can do a "Closer By Committee" in which it won't necessarily be the same pitcher each day that they call on to close out the game.

Can we please pull Torres right now? Second time this week this has happened. It was one thing when he used 'I'm still getting used to being in the other side of second's, but when Jazz came, he said 'I'm a second baseman's. ENOUGH!

Now, let's see what Schmidt can do tomorrow.

I'm thinking in the post season, you're looking at complete innings with pitchers, so, 5 innings by this guy, 3-4 innings by another, 6 innings by another. I don't expect any of the guys who are out in the bullpen to be true relievers, and even then, i can see them being long men, not staying with guys long.

"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

From Compton to the Bronx.jpg

"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."
