Intruder posted:The Astros one is funnier because he goes 2nd to home without a throw even though the ball is fielded like five feet away from him while he's rounding second Yeah, I just thought it was funny that he scored from 1st on a ball that never left the infield for a second time purely because of defensive incompetence and "don't stop running." But yeah, this is just one defender falling apart where a bunch of people had to freze to make the Astros thing possible.

The Yankees also largely got the J&J vaccine early, so its possible that's a factor into why they keep suffering these outbreaks of mostly breakthrough cases. Although Aaron Boone also likes pointing out they keep happening after Florida/Texas road trips. I mean everyone has to make those trips so its still a Yankee thing, but it makes me feel better to say it. https://twitter.com/YankeesWFAN/status/1423378707851485185 STAC Goat fucked around with this message at 00:14 on Aug 6, 2021 |

Nodoze posted:The Yankees all getting covid, Rizzo aside, is not doing well for the "get vaxxed to stop the plague" movement That seems silly to me. Putting aside that some of these players are unvaccinated and many others got the much less effective J&J... and putting aside that there has always been a chance to get it even if you're vaccinated... and putting aside that most of the sick Yankees have avoided any major symptoms, a boasted benefit of the vaccine... the Delta variant has proven a new danger to all. I mean, yeah, some dumbasses are gonna go "See?!?!" But that doesn't mean they have a point.

Chris James 2 posted:It'll be enough. You already had some people who got the shots in the first place but were skeptical of a future booster shot. This will do the opposite of stop that mentality, especially with "lock it down" now being a fringe position neither recent president agrees with I mean, if there's anything this stuff proves its that all this "covid's under control now, no more restrictions, full capacity" bullshit was unquestionably wrong. No, I don't think anyone is gonna support lockdowns because of how many problems that cause and fortunately/unfortunately vaccines should help manage the situation from getting too out of control - at least in places where people are getting vaccinated. I think the recent push from the right for vaccination is the place we're at. We're seeing massive numbers to show that the vaccinations and mask mandates help and the places with them are getting hurt badly (and precious voters are dying). Is an outbreak amongst the Yankees gonna counter that amongst a percentage of people? I guess, maybe. Probably to those looking for a reason. But I'm not really sure what to take from that or anything. Rizzo (and probably Judge) should have been vaxxed. Yanks maybe should have gotten one of the more reliable vaxs when they became more readily available? I don't actually know what the medical opinion is on that. MLB/The Yankees should be pulling back and instituting mandates. I don't know what else to take from this.

They had an old timey scoreboard complete with a dude who walked up a ladder to change the score while you heard creaky noises. It was perfect. The scoreboard... I mean it IS a MLB game with people who paid way too much. I guess they should see replays and know who's AB.

I feel the same way about the Yankees I have all season. They clearly have the talent to win and if even half of it is clicking at the same time they're contenders. They definitely have a more versatile offense now than they had at the start of the season, and for as much as Yankee fans want to blame coaching and team philosophy for the flaws its also been in guys like Judge and Gleybar who have been agressive on the basepaths. Its clearly an overall team adjustment. The pitching is what it is. I've mostly stopped expecting to get Sev back this year but if they can get anything from him, Kluber, and German that should help. The pen's gonna remain a crap shoot but in the playoffs pens kind of always are and those starters can help compensate. There's still time to fall off and miss the playoffs but I'm feeling pretty good about the wildcard at least. After that, I dunno. Yanks can score 10 and/or give up 6 in the 9th. Makes for exciting baseball. And going forward its clear all the histrionic stuff was just that. I dunno who gets resigned, who never recovers from a bad season, or what but I have little doubt they'll be contenders again next season.

Its dumb for Baez (and the Mets, but Baez for verbalizing it) to do it because like you're not gonna get a bunch of booing assholes to go "Haha, you got us. Fair turn." If they could do that they probably wouldn't be booing assholes. But it makes me laugh.

Big fan of "the fans have the right to express themselves, the players don't" approach. The fun part is Baez's comments aren't even aggressive or anything. He's like "it sucks getting booed when we suck so we just want to express that because we're all in this together." The monster.
