  1. Thank goodness. I guess Fisher, Little, and Hoffman to try to end it? Or is Yesavage an option?
  2. Don’t like this move. Yariel wasn’t good to end the season and Lauer was pitching well.
  3. Lauer eating up 2-3 innings (assuming he’s effective and JS allows him) would be huge.
  4. JS is going to make a bunch of panic pitching changes. Whatever plan they have, let’s see if he stays with it. Have a feeling they already know Yesavage is coming in at some point.
  5. The playoff crowds this post season have been amazing. Loud and passionate. Can't ask for a better atmosphere.
  6. Not a fan of using Yesavage tonight. Go with what you have, and if it doesn't work, then go with a Gausman/Yesavage tandem in Game 5 and hope for the the best. Giving JS the green light to use anyone is terrifying because he absolutely will. If it's late and the Jays are leading and Yesavage is the best option they have left, then that's one thing, but otherwise save him for a possible Game 5. The Yankees seeing nothing but splitters all day Friday (if it gets there) on the road should be the goal.
  7. Tony had his breakout year in 2022. Since then... as DH 80 wRC+, 581 PA In the field 129 wRC+, 1602 PA Maybe that means nothing, but since Springer seems to be the opposite (prefers being DH from the sounds of it), I think it's probably a reasonable decision to go with that alignment. As long as JS is ready for a defensive replacement late if necessary.
  8. One thing for sure, Schneider going to bring in a LHP to face Bellinger despite the splits. Everything else remains to be seen.
  9. Using Varland for the 4th time in 5 days when I'm pretty sure they knew he was going to be the opener going into the series is strange. Why use him in a blow out in Game 2 then? Last night's game was lost with IKF in the lineup. Not sure if that was a JS call or FO call, or maybe both, but the Baseball Gods were having none of it (IKF error in the 1st, and then the Barger error later in the game, when both are likely avoided with DS at 2B and Straw in the OF, which is the configuration many wanted to begin with). Unfortunately, a lefty is going in Game 5, so IKF starting in a do or die is a pretty safe bet. Win tonight so we don't have to deal with it. I'm not expecting it, I'm actually expecting a laugher for the Yanks unfortunately, but it's baseball, so hopefully baseball happens tonight and the Jays pull it out.
  10. Is there a way to IL Bruihl and put Bassitt on the roster by tonight? I actually liked the idea of an opener in Game 4 but the Yankees made me hate it after 3 games. If the Jays bullpen actually wins Game 4 then it’s destiny because man does this matchup look one sided. Lauer needs to throw up some zeros. I think it’s going to Game 5 unfortunately. Hope I’m wrong.
  11. I think the sad part here is that both errors (IKF's and Barger's) could have been avoided if they just started Straw in the OF and DS at 2B. I mean, I guess DS could have made that error too but at least the Barger error would have been avoided. Either Clement catches it or Straw catches it. Ultimately it came down to Varland giving up 2 bombs. Errors happen, but the pitching couldn't cover for it.
  12. Yeah I hated starting IKF, but pinch hitting for him in the 3rd inning when the team was leading by 5 when the only reason you started him in the first place was to play defense (which you need when you're leading) was highly questionable. Might as well have started Barger in the first place. I think that error in the 1st inning shook JS and caused him to make that move.
  13. Bullpen game tomorrow. Worst case scenario playing out.
  14. It's 10 pm and it's the 4th inning. Big FU to Fox and MLB for starting this game at 8 pm EST.
  15. Pulled Bieber at the right time IMO. Now the Jays have to win this game because they can't afford 2 bullpen games in a row.
  16. If IKF starts another game, then fire JS immediately,
  17. IKF’s 0-4 with nothing but weak contact would be more palatable if he could actually play defense.
  18. Teams that don't have retractable roofs on their stadiums will forever annoy me, I don't care what their reasoning is.
  19. That's what I'm going with as well. IKF about to hit a homer at Yankee Stadium in front of a fanbase that didn't like him when he was there.
