    What a clusterfuck of a game that was, but the Yankees win and Gary Sanchez will live to see another passed ball. On to Tampa!!!

    Aaron Boone is a fucking genius, unleashing Frazier against the unsuspecting Devil Rays.

    That was a nice win.

    Tomorrow is really a toss up with Garcia. Hope for the best.

    Homered in three straight playoff games. Maybe this is where he earns his dough.

    Deivi starting. Not really getting that move. Tanaka may be hurt/fatigued from the rain delays? But why not Happ, he ended the season as strong as he's ever been. Now he's been on ice for a long time.

    Only took four games into the postseason for the Yankees to run out their A lineup. Okay, now watch them lose.

    Maybe to take some pressure off Garcia?

    I guess I understand the move to go to Happ... but the only problem was relying on JA Happ.

    5 games in 5 days exposes a starting pitching staff that has only 1 useful starter, thanks Brian Trashcan

    Given the five games in five days, why would you waste a starter like Garcia as a one-inning opener? It sounds like Cashman was trying to be a little too cute.

    The Yankees struck out 18 times. Three-run homers are nice, but tight games in the post-season are the time and a place to just put the ball in play and make things happen.

    As for Stanton, notice that he hit one of his HRs to right field. When he wants to, he can hit the ball hard the other way. That's a good sign, because when he gets pull-happy, he can be useless.
