Will Warren...sometimes I gotta remind myself to have patience with the young dudes. Got himself into trouble in the 5th and Boone let him stay and I thought it was the right decision. If it's not going to cause the team to lose, you gotta give him a chance to get good experience.

Jazz is on fire...nice. Guy is so up and down.

Damn...we gave a nice catcher to the Red Sox.

Hope Volpe is okay.

Judge...not gonna lie. I thought the chase for .400 was over once his BA got into .380ish, and somehow it's at .397 again. It's so amazing what he's doing.


With Yanks since 2015. How did we let him slide out and for nothing?
Wells was supposed to be the offensive talent and he is hitting .216!

On December 11, 2024, the Yankees traded Narváez to the Boston Red Sox in exchange for minor-league pitcher Elmer Rodriguez-Cruz and international signing bonus pool money.[

If you score 7 runs against a team's ace you should be able to win.

Boone should have pulled Yarbrough after he gave up 6 runs. There was no business leaving him in there to put the game out of reach.

I have always felt that "this is their championship" is a loser thing to say in any sport - but man, when Boston plays NY in the regular, it IS their title game. They play their best against us.

Like I've said before, any half decent hitting team can easily smoke us. The Dodgers series and this series is proof that we do not have the pitching to win a title. The reason why we're even in first place is because most of the teams in baseball that we beat have terrible lineups. You're not going to go very far with Rodon as your second best pitcher, a journeyman in Yarbrough as your number 3, Warren as your number 4, a bullpen who is incapable of keeping you in the game and a manager like Boone.

Because they actually approach us like it's a rivalry. While our team thinks they can just show up, when they get punched they fold up like a cheap tent typical of a Boone managed team

Time to enjoy the summer months focused on my Yankees. So far so good.

40-25 leads the AL East. 2nd best in American league. 4th best in the majors. Fried has been killing it. Judge having a monster year. Contributions from more than two players this year has been great. DJL showing signs of life!! Who had that on their bingo card?!? :lol:

Let's get back to the WS!!

Loving the patience from the Yankees here. Long ass at-bats...18 pitches from Bubic in the beginning of the 5th and now he's gone.

Whatever you say. Judge is the best hitter in baseball. Has been for a couple of years. You probably won't see this again in your lifetime but, yeah, let's make baby Ruth jokes. He's 5th all time in post season HRs for the Yankees. That's no small feat at all.

Anyway. Another good win last night. Judge blasts another HR and the rest of the lineup beat up on KC. Keep it rolling boys. Summer is almost here.

Can't lie, didn't expect Warren to pull that one off. That second inning was scary. Two on via singles, no outs. He gets a clutch double play, walks the next guy. 2-0 on the next guy, and then strikes him out after a really long at-bat. Settles down, pitches around a triple later, comes back after a rain delay. Good for him. If it was last year, I feel like we'd be down 5-0.

Got to rest Judge for most of the day, which is big.

Can't complain about this one at all.

Won that one despite Boone's dollar store lineup. Hopefully Williams has worked out the kinks.

Anytime the Yankees can win a game with Paula Reyes in the lineup it is a huge plus.
