Welcome back Clarker!
Is this the return of the Yankees Ace?
Which happens first? Judge breaks his HR drought? Or Ellis gets a start?

i do expect that Judge will get back in sync. we did, however, see him struggle at the end of the 22 season and was ineffective in the playoffs. if that history is repeated... well I guess I dont need to say anything else
Gleyber on base 2x today
Wells on base 2x today
Soto on base 2x today
no hits from Judge or Stanton
If Judge provides his normal performance, we probably score 5 or 6 runs today. maybe it starts some type of avalanche and we put up an even bigger number
Stanton probably did hit the hardest ball of the day. i think it would have been the only ball to hit the OF wall if Bellinge…
the prof figured it out
your offense can be a muted and still effective
if the pitching staff smothers the opposition's hitters.
two or three runs are a whole lot better than too much of nothing
Either the Yankees have excellent pitching.....Or the Cubs currently have a lifeless offense. Probably a combination of both in this series.
Let Cortes finish the game. Screw the so-called formula.
nice flip from Rizzo
Nestor a tad slow getting over
