    Right, yeah that was a pisser. Would have been great to beat Barnes twice in 1 day.

    I remember that game and I was in the camp saying that replay being overturned was the right call. The wrong call was sending Valera in the first place. Vlad was up next. Also Semien should have done better there. Also if we had Dyson at the time, he probably would have been able to score.

    This was honestly the worst stretch of losses I think i've ever witnessed from the Jays. That week was so demoralizing. As for your question, if you just compare something quick like Bullpen WAR here are the numbers: Yankees: 7.2 WAR Tampa: 7 WAR Seattle: 7 WAR Boston: 4.7 WAR Oakland: 1.5 WAR Toronto: 1.4 WAR (25th in all of baseball) And that made the difference. Bullpen definitely sunk the season early on.

    Yeah I agree I don’t think we can be too harsh on the players this year. For a lot of them, its been their first full season at the MLB level. They had to go through 3 different “home fields” where the majority of fans were actually rooting against them vs New York and Boston. Making the fake playoffs in 2020 set somewhat unrealistic expectations on this team for 2021. Its easy to blame Charlie for being a dolt, but inexperience likely played a large role here too. Even saying all that, they actually surpassed their projections for this year. Absolutely no excuses for 2022 though. They should be competing for 1st place in the division.

    Who can resist this beautiful smile?

    They really just needed another few games of hot hitting to extend that great streak and we'd be in a spot right now. f***ing frustrating that it looks like they're gonna fall just short like this. Or imagine they didn't throw the ball away to lose that Detroit game. Or if Charlie brought in Romano instead of Hand in that Seattle game with the bases loaded. So many f***ing games pissed away. Im sure we'll be putting together a big list once the season is over. I can think of 5 more off the top of my head.

    There’s 5 games left

    Sadly true. Jays could MAYBE make it through if they take 1 from the Yanks and sweep the Orioles.... but they’re gonna have to beat the Yankees again in NY for the wildcard game.

    Its sad that the bullpen absolutely sunk this team. Starting rotation was solid this year too.

    If you watch the podcast that Shea Hillenbrand was on about a year ago, you can tell how much of an absolute douchebag he is. I don’t blame Gibby at all
  11. Stangstag
    Yup. It ain’t over yet. But the bats need to wake the f*** up
  12. Stangstag
    Stanton is a freak right now. A mutant. Do not throw strikes to this man
  13. Stangstag
    Gurriel was dumb for not getting out of the way
  14. Stangstag
    Idk man, the offense looks lifeless right now. Pretty much need perfect pitching performances to win
  15. Stangstag
    Come back tomorrow night and start the win streak
  16. Stangstag
    Springer looked like he might be heating up in the last couple Minnesota games... but no
  17. Stangstag
    Lifeless
  18. Stangstag
    Go back and read box scores from earlier in the season. None of those bullpen guys are even on the team anymore minus Romano. Bullpen was laughably bad earlier in the year and we lost a ton of winnable games
  19. Stangstag
    Alright lets go Springer, start this off right
  20. Stangstag
    Yeah... this feels like a weirdly managed game where guys from the front office sat down and said to use a different pitcher every inning to keep the Yankees off balance or something. This reminds me of our playoff game vs Tampa with Shoemaker
  21. Stangstag
    Lol nah they’re just hot right now. Stanton has long streaks where he looks like he’s never seen a curveball or slider before. Then he has stretches like this where he could swing with his eyes closed and smash everything.
  22. Stangstag
    I mean they do have a much better bullpen, a full 6 WAR more than ours. But a lot of it is luck. Its the type of s*** that you definitely don’t repeat 2 years in a row.
  23. Stangstag
    This home plate ump is atrocious
  24. Stangstag
    Ah so its gonna be one of those games where Yankees have all the luck
  25. Stangstag
    Redsox also took a nice steamy dump in Fenway last weekend
