Let the burning of pants commence. These things drive me nuts.



With his HR in his first at bat tonight, Andujar has had an extra base hit in his seventh straight game. He’s now tied with DiMaggio (June 1937) and Mantle (May 1955) as the only other Yankees to have 7 straight games with an XBH streak before their 24th birthday.

I'm sitting in 231 tonight and that Sanchez foul ball landed 3 rows in front of me and it was terrifying.

It got here so fast.

Didi Gregorious is my spirit animal. Aaron Judge is my large adult son. Andujar is a beautiful, beautiful beast. I love this offense.

They cost themselves so much money not signing Didi before now... He's gonna get Altuve's deal minimum. Probably more.

seriously. You don't need 8 relievers, especially if the starters are in a groove where they're throwing 6-7 innings a night (You can reasonably expect this from Sevy, Tanaka, and Montgomery. Gray will get there and CC is very 5 and fly these days)

I think Drury goes to 1B when he comes back, and then goes to supersub mode when Bird comes back. it might be curtains for Tyler Wade's time in New York tho, he's the odd man out and he hasn't performed well in his short stints

A bunch of these guys like Wade, Austin and maybe even Drury could be traded for a pitcher.

On the train home from the game I met the guys who caught Didi's grand slam, they grabbed it out of the air right in front of Zack Hample. My dudes.

Also THE YANKEES GET COLE! (It's AJ Cole but that's a minor quibble.)

They need to pay the man already.

Edit: Also it’s looking like that has to be Cashman’s best trade since he’s been GM, right?

Of course I would love this to be permanent but I would bet a lot of money it's not. A lot of players have had super hot weeks. I've always thought he's fine as a long term regular, just I think he needs more polish.

The only place for Andujar to get more polish is in the bigs. not gonna get high caliber pitches in AAA

also lol Gary Sanchez is a god that we forget about

If you warm Dellin up you have to warm up somebody right next to him to come either bail him out or (best case) start the next inning.

It's so sad to watch :(

He clearly needs a change of scenery and it's going to be impossible for the yankees to get fair value for him.

Thinking about this lineup once Stanton gets on a hot streak and Bird comes back in a month or two.
