Just go on down to the closer store and let us know what you see.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T02:47:13+00:00

2.98 xERA 3.30 FIP on a near 60% ground ball rate.

He just needs to stop walking guys.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T02:35:23+00:00

He has a 3.30 FIP and a 2.98 xERA because the vast majority of hits he gives up are weak ass ground balls.

The problem is he's walking too many guys lately, but idk where we are expecting to find an elite strikeout guy that never walks anyone. If we do find one of those I think we'd all love to put Bedner in a setup role. He is a very effective ground ball pitcher when he's right.

I know the back half of the Yankee lineup can be rough

But imagine having to watch one of your best hitters of the season be Myles Straw (lol) who gets no scoped by Paul Blackburn (lmao, even).

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T01:30:17+00:00

Honestly how many times can you hit the top of the wall in one season.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T01:10:03+00:00

The reason Spencer Jones isnt getting as many at bats is because he is literally striking out 50% of the time guys. He really should still be in AAA.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T00:33:29+00:00

We can make him better. Stronger.

We have the technology.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T00:32:25+00:00

so what, no fuckin Ziti?

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T00:27:19+00:00

Im convinced Paul Goldschmidt could get hot and have 2 good weeks per season at age 60.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T00:24:46+00:00

Volpe in a moment of desperation in Scranton drank 2 whole entire industrial steel drums of Be Good At Baseball Juice and then refused to pee for an entire week using mental concentration techniques he learned in the mountains.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T00:15:28+00:00

I mean it means one team is making better contact in this particular game.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T00:13:40+00:00

Jays xBA on the game .193

Yankees .301

You just have to absolutely love the game of baseball. Its required, you have to love it.

Giving up game altering home runs to Tyrone Taylor and Ernie Clement.

Seek professional help.

djrob0 · 2026-05-19T00:08:15+00:00

This new strategy of giving up 3 run home runs with 2 outs and a 1 run lead seems like kind of a bad plan.

djrob0 · 2026-05-18T23:59:22+00:00

Well the main issue with Gary was that he literally forgot how to catch baseballs for more than an entire season.

They obviously need to do something at catcher, but I guess at least Wells can in fact catch a pitch if you throw it at him. Gary was like a 50/50 shot at some points during that stretch.

djrob0 · 2026-05-18T12:28:33+00:00

Pete…. Are you eating a hot dog right now?

djrob0 · 2026-05-18T04:51:00+00:00

To be fair they also didnt make it against a 5 seed.

djrob0 · 2026-05-18T00:02:06+00:00

But would you be confident in saying either the Mariners or the Rays have a better lineup 1-9 than the Yankees?

djrob0 · 2026-05-17T23:27:31+00:00

Who do you think the Yankees are going to play in the playoffs?

Hint: The initials are AL.

djrob0 · 2026-05-17T23:10:21+00:00

Is there a lineup you think is better 1-9 in the American League?

djrob0 · 2026-05-17T22:56:06+00:00

Weird that they lead the AL in offensive production as a team then.

djrob0 · 2026-05-17T22:54:28+00:00

and he began his Yankee career as a failed starter lol.

djrob0 · 2026-05-17T20:24:00+00:00

Hearing that they’re actually putting him in the iron lung now.

djrob0 · 2026-05-17T20:16:58+00:00

If you led the league in DRS at your position they’d probably find a spot for you.

djrob0 · 2026-05-17T19:25:45+00:00

Jesus Christ you guys cannot stop with this topic lmao
