DFA Severino, did you see how he gave up a run?!

I threw my TV out the window after he walked the first batter on four pitches. That’s not how big leaguers pitch, and furthermore

For real though, Sheff got into some trouble last night (and got a bit squeezed) but his reaction after he got out of the jam is so good and I <3 him.

I also loved how Gary practically picked Britton up off the ground while hugging him on Tuesday night.

Guys, if we only look at the at-bats where our hitters didn’t get on base, you’ll see that we really lost that game 1-0 and you should be furious.

Sanchez has actually looked good this series so far. Seems like his approach at the plate is a little better, too.

This nine hour game notwithstanding they've looked really good this series.

When the batter steps in front of the plate to get in your way it's a tough play, so we'll give him a pass on that one.

I feel like its something that was mentioned on commentary by kay but that is the way they intend to pitch in the playoffs. everyone playing short games so we have a battalion of arms to use at any time.

I am a fan of Kevin Cash saying the Yankees didn't have a "Bullpen Day," they had a "Closer Day."

Tarpley was a bubble 40-man candidate for this winter (I think he'll be Rule 5 eligible and will absolutely get taken) and I think he's making a pretty good case to be added right now.

I'm sick so I went to bed in the 8th, but I saw that catch and hot drat was it a good one. Any word on Hicks? When I saw him run to 1st I told my daughter "He's hurt. He won't say anything but he just hurt himself" and I further cemented her mistaken opinion that I am an all-knowing genius when he left the game.

Bullpen / Closer Day was interesting... we found a way to get Sonny some wins! :v:

E: I think Gray only getting an inning or two, and knowing that ahead of time, would do wonders for him. I genuinely like him, and hope he can have some success somehow with the Yanks. From my armchair, it seems like knowing he only has to face X batters and he's done lets him free himself up mentally and just attack the zone and be more aggressive.

Hicks says he should be back in a couple of days and the pull was mostly precautionary, but it's a hammy issue so I assume he'll never play again.
