Yeah tough without Judge. Lineup is so different.

Still, even with Judge, Yankees are a team with a lot of flaws. 

The best hitter in baseball does cover up a low of flaws though.

Their lineup plays a lot better at home, so wouldn't shock me if they win the next two. 90% of their lineup without Judge are LHB that benefit from their Mickey Mouse home dimensions. Cody Bellinger has a wRC+ of 97 and 81 on the road the last two seasons, while it's 149 and 152 at home. Of course, their fielding likely sucks anywhere, so all the Rays have to do is put the ball in play and the Yankees will panic.

The Yankees are hilarious.

More likely to finally get fired if they suffer an embarassing sweep - Boone or Cashman or neither 

[Spanky__99]

For those that don't believe defense is a thing, it's shown up glaringly in this Postseason set of games.

Tampa's game plan moving forward should be pitch around Rice.

1. Middle of the order this series:

Luis García Jr., Spencer Jones, George Lombard Jr., Jazz Chisholm Jr. and Trent Grisham

0 for 33

2. They put out in their "best defensive lineup" yesterday and committed 4 errors

Laughing at the Yankees is light consolation after our awful season but I'm still enjoying it.  NGL

[G-Snarls]

Yamamoto vs Sale 

Nice!

[Brownie19]

Roberts showing his massive balls by moving Ohtani down in the lineup to 5th.

[G-Snarls]

Kim cost Sale a potential inning ending double play

Yikes 2 runners on for Ohtani

[G-Snarls]

But Sale gets gets him swinging

No runs score

[Super Jays]

Yamamoto is lucky he didn't get hurt fielding that bunt

[SpencerBateman]

Glad the whole Ohtani gimmick is over.  Hitting 5th lol.  Our Japanese will put up a better season than him next year 

I would be glad if he went back to Japan all together 

[Super Jays]

They're all over Sale.  It was only a matter of time before they hit one out (the only way they can score apparently).

Kike

[SpencerBateman]

I dislike kike Hernandez.  Just a s***** guy and I’m not impressed that he put up better stats for 90 career playoff games.  If he was actually the playoff guy he wouldn’t hit 9th 

[hanton]

Yankee infield defense vs what we just saw right there

[hanton]

another park with the Purge horn

[G-Snarls]

Every remaining series on tomorrow

Sweet!

Every one of them a potential elimination game too...

 

[hanton]

[SpencerBateman]

911 happened to the wrong city
