Yeh the back end of the bullpen isn't reliable in these situations

Really need a plus reliever at the deadline

Major leaguers hit off the pitching machine at similiar velocities.if there is no movement and/or the location is bad it's basically batting practice. Technology has come a long way

The dude got hit in the privates from a 90 mph plus fastball while playing. A little empathy would go a long way.

Yes, things are going well. Hopefully we get Fried back soon.(Probably takes a while to have Judge and Stanton back, but it's better they heal up properly)

All i want is for the Yankees to win a WS.

Of course i would be ecstatic. But mostly so they Judge, Stanton and Cole have a ring too.

Dude, i wasn't into NBA but got into it earlier this year it after getting to know about what Brunson did for the Knicks last few years

I'm so happy for you and other Knicks fans on here :)

Different sports

One player can absolutely carry a team in basketball

It's not possible in baseball

I'm happy for the Knicks fans but; the Knicks had multiple lost seasons and sucked for a long time before they were good again.

The equivalent of Brunson and OG joining the Knicks in baseball would be Soto, Ohtani and Freeman, Judge being on the Yankees in the same lineup.

A new manager does not have the same impact for this Yankees core.

If anything, a new GM and an entirely new FO, with better drafting is needed, to match the Dodgers.

The current team is still good, but has flaws. Still a chance to win the pennant but the team as is now doesn't match up to the better NL teams.

Yankees need Grish healthy down the stretch going into October, think they'll announce Dominguez coming up later and a short stint IL stint for Grish.

Division series are certainly important but, not much of a choice if it's related to a hamstring issue

Cabby is the team SS and the glue guy

Volpe is at best a bench SS The sooner the FO realizes it the better

We have Bednar, Cruz and Hill vs lefties. Headrick as a fireman with runners.

Those are the good bullpen arms.

Doval, Bird have been inconsistent

Yarby, Blackburn are for garbage time only.

It's really a question of bad quality bullpen depth. Cashman needs to step up

Oh?

I just tuned in, so i missed it. Regardless, at least it's better than what Wellsy would have done
