Wells starts day game after night game.
Not sure how he does with horses, but so far Paddock has not corralled hitters.
So far Caballero has posed no threat to Volpe's job.
Can McMahon break the one-quarter Mendoza Line?
The BA of anyone in the Marlins' bottom 3rd is higher than the total of the Yankees' bottom third.

ALWAYS a bummer to lose. probably a bit more when you have a late lead.
that said, the Yanks sit at 7-2 and the offense has been nowhere close to hot so far!
the truth is that they only have 2 hitters that are hot
Rice and Stanton
2 hitters that are doing fine but definitely not hot
Judge and Belly
Grish is having good ABs and getting quite a few BBs, but so far not getting hits.
I would say he has had some balls that he hit very well that did not fall
I would also say he seems to be a bit less aggressive than he was last year. maybe the stats would prove me wrong, bu…
WOW!!
well there we have it, PROOF!!
even in the ABS era it is not impossible for the umps to have a GIGANTIC negative impact on the game
home plate ump negatively impacts NOT 1, but 2 ABs in one inning, and that happened to be the 9th inning
wrongly called strike on Stanton who is the tying run in the box, changes the count that should have been 2-0 and put Stanton in total control and makes it 1-1 instead and forces Stanton to have to swing at bad pitches
then calls a TERRIBLE strike on Escarra with the tying run on 2b.
Chat at y'all Tuesday night!
Dang, I wanted that cigar.
Yankees get penalized by Stanton hitting the ball with not enough loft and Well hitting the ball with just a tiny bit too much
consecutive good ABs from McMahon. hoping it leads to a hot streak, or at least a warm streak!!
going to the 9th. we need our 2 warm hitters to get on base before our 2 HOT hitters come up
