It's unbelievable how many of these just gagging no show games against horrible teams they have had this season.

What a complete embarrassment. 1st and 3rd no one out and they can't score vs this AAA garbage.

We all know Andujar is a bad 3B but players have improved their D before. He can get better over the offseason.

If I was a GM and I saw a performance like this against basically a AAA team, i would start firing people. This is an utter joke.

Greg Bird has AB 200 ABs this season with a 215/306/410. That isn't major league caliber.

Didi in 313 AB's since May 1 249/296/403. Not major league caliber.

Why didn’t they IBB Abreu? He’s like the only good hitter in that lineup. And they had a lefty on deck.

Because no one on the team has any idea what they are doing. Their baseball IQ is like 7.

I like how baseball pundits have been pointing out how easy the Yankee schedule is for the next month. They clearly haven't been following this team.

Maybe that's what it was all the time. In Oakland his lack of run support focused him. Luckily now that the Yankees can't hit anymore, he'll return to form.

People are hurt. Chill out. He's like 9th on the outfield depth chart, we just happened to unfortunately reach that far down at this point.

Judge will be back, Frazier will be healthy at some point and would be able to play.

Nah it's unacceptable to have minor league players playing every day in a pennant race. They should've got another bat or 2 or just not traded Austin.

Maybe they should put Sevy in the bullpen and give Gray his rotation spot because he's been loving terrible for the last month. Over 9 ERA in past 30 days. Gray's is under 4 in same time frame. :suicide:
