I’m happy about what the team has done the last 3 games (yes there are the flaws), but it’s 3 essential wins in a row. Smile.

Getting their mojo back at just the right time

I doubt the Yankees lose at home

It took Schneider 15 terrible Hoffman outings before he decided to use Domínguez as closer

I think it was mostly because Hoffman pitched yesterday. Pretty sure Hoffman is still the closer

Hoffman will close every playoff game, even if it means we get swept.

He’s not even started full hitting yet, let alone running. Looking like he’s weeks away.

Sit the half billy tomorrow. Start Barger. Recipe for a win. Id rather Straw in there than the Gatorade man

What's wrong with Ernie?
Bichette ain't coming back.

Given that Bichette hasn’t started running or even taking a full swing, I dont ser him avaliable until the ALCS

It doesn't sound like Bichette is a week away. I think there's a real chance he's done for the season. Have to hope Santander can make up for some of the lost offense.

Hoffman had pitched two games in a row, including 25 pitches on Friday.

He was sidelined for last night. He was not demoted.

Id trust Dominguez to close against a team that has strong RHH due up that they wouldnt pinch hit for. Hes so bad against lefties man lol

I still trust him over Lefties over Jeff Coughman.

Randle McMurphy · Post #859 » by **Randle McMurphy** » Sun Sep 28, 2025 4:59 pm

So Barger instead of Lukes and Straw got in there rather than Gimenez from my prediction yesterday

No needless IKF start so I can live with that

Decent reasonable lineup. Hopefully things pan out today. And I hope this doesn't become a life or death extra innings affair.
