The one after game three of our last series against them was amazing.

1st in the AL... 2nd in the MLB... non contenders, lmao. What a bird! 🖕😅

Something something run differential. Michael Kay is likely mainlining Prozac right now and I'm all for it.

I've said this before, but it bears repeating.

This is a top 10 Yankees defense with multiple gold glovers. We are in their heads, they are rattled. This isn't because they have no talent.

That depends on which metric you are looking at. Yankees are 6th by DRS at +33 but down in 20th by OAA at -6.

Yankees have such an awkward roster. They should shake it up huge at the trade deadline. 

• Stanton clogging up DH most games. Cannot man a position even for one inning. 
• Three left handed catchers in Wells, Escarra, and Rice. So they can't play the platoon advantage game at C when deciding when guys play or get days off. 
• Ben Rice can really hit and needs to play but his only "real" position is 1B and to give him run there means putting Goldschmidt in the short side of a platoon. 
• Their best defensive of is Bellinger - Grisham - Judge. But Jasson Dominguez can also really hit. But Jasson Dominguez is inexplicably bad at left field, somehow. So it's kind of like the Ben Rice situation where getting his bat in there is so tempting but you lose so much on defense.
• Vivas and Peraza should not be on MLB rosters but they are sharing time at 3B until a trade happens.
• Volpe has the yips and still has not developed with the bat. 

They are stuck with Stanton and they cannot honestly roster Stanton, Rice, Goldschmidt, and Dominguez at the same time. We might see them trade Rice despite the offensive prowess, and demote Dominguez to work on his defense. Clint Frazier flash backs.

Stanton, Rice and Dominguez should all be dh and should stay 10 feet away from anything resembling a baseball glove. Plus Goldy needs to play. 

They have to get Judge off his feet at least once every six games. What can they do?  Cashman really effed up his roster construction.

The Yankees fans and commentators seem jealous of the Jays' roster construction and it just tickles me pink to be honest

Love this f*cking team boys!
