They faced the Rays Marlins and the Rays again... Talk about a easy start.

Those arent major league teams.

Stanton and Sanchez are slow cookers. Sanchez started slow last year and Stanton didn't go on a HR spree until like June.

Gary Sanchez missed most of April last year.

The offense is not the problem on the Yankees. The pen has not found its groove yet.

Let's be clear on this, the Orioles are playing like this is the World Series. The Yankees are just trying to get a feel for the season. By the time Sept rolls around, Manchado will be traded to a different team and the Yankees will be contending for the post season.

Boy, he didn't take long to adjust to MLB. At least, the decision was his...the Yankees tried their best so I can live with that.

Not looking too good right now with the Yankees missing out on Ohtani and Cole and Stanton currently struggling,nothing you can do though when Ohtani wanted to play out West and the Pirates wanted a huge overpay with Cole.

It’s been 10 days. Let it play out.

But we should have Ohtani, Cole, and Stanton.

i want to know the odds of judge hitting into a home-to-third double play right there. i've been watching for 20 years and don't think ive ever seen that type of double play.

Ohtani definitely would have been nice but it looks like being on the west coast was a top priority for him. Yankees Starting pitching has mostly looked good early though.

Stanton would’ve struck out 15 less times tbh

The Yankees starting pitching isn't what's killing them. It's sloppy defense, I think they have something like TEN errors which has come back to haunt them. Obviously the pen has either misused or overused.

You're not going to get Stanton, Judge, Sanchez to bail you out every time.

I love this series in Boston, we'll see if this young team that claims there's no pressure is ready.

Errors definitely can stretch out innings and wear out your bullpen. Overall this team is a bit sloppy right now.

Ive seen it many times with the yankees and im only 29. Its the most disturbing double play.
