2020 Yankees Season thread

My guess is we'll see some mix of Cole/Garcia tomorrow with Britton and Chapman hopefully closing it out

[jacksonianmarch]

Cole can work on 3 days rest and go as long as needed. Deivi can be of assistance should we get out to a big lead or should Cole falter.

 

The craziest thing here is that the Rays are going Glasnow on two days rest after a 93 pitch outing. I said from the beginning that the Rays would win the series if Glasnow pitched game 1 as he’s harder for us than Snell and he’s have at least 3 days rest for game 5. Having an oft injured guy throw on 2 days rest is a recipe for disaster for the Rays (or maybe he becomes a new hero wrecking his arm in the process).

 

Either way, I’d take Cole on 3 days rest. This one will be fun

Advantage Yankees, just like it would have been if they beat us in game 4 in 2018

[Bellhorn04]

As Earl Weaver said, momentum is the next day's starting pitcher. The Yankees' advantage is Cole. He is the man of the moment.

 

As for Garcia, if I'm a Yankee fan I'm hoping he doesn't have to come into a tight game. He's a kid, and he didn't look that solid in his one inning.

Glasnow probably only throws 60 pitches tonight.

 

And then the deadly Rays' pen takes over...

[Bellhorn04]

Like most MLB starters, Cole has NEVER pitched on 3 days rest.

So think the Rays hit Ji-Man Choi second tonight to maximize his appearances against Cole?

 

Choi has a 2.400 career OPS vs Cole in 12 PA with 6 of hit 8 hits going for extra bases, including 3 HRs.

 

Maybe put Joey Wendle (.812 OPS vs Cole) at leadoff?

Here comes the Ji-Man!!!!

Big game with all the pressure and Cole pitching. Rays are f***ed.

For the life of me , I can't see what all the hype is about with Deivi Garcia . I would expect Cole to go as long as he can. When the Yanks go to the bullpen , I would expect nothing but Green , Britton and Chapman.

This is the best part of baseball. One big game. The brawl for it all . But in the end , who is going to beat the L. A. juggernaut ?

Glasnow vs Cole. Two former top Pirates prospects facing off...

Thinking this could be the year LA finally wins it. They just look way too strong.

[Kimmi]

Ballgame! Tomorrow is gonna be a dandy

 

Should be a fun game. Sadly, I don't think the Rays can hang with the big boys.

[TylerD]

Bases loaded for Tampa

[jacksonianmarch]

He’s way off today

[TylerD]

Dammit.

[jacksonianmarch]

And he righted himself. He sucks in inning 1

[d-money]

Rays look pathetic. Cole on four day’s rest making them look silly.

Yup.

[jacksonianmarch]

All Rise!

[d-money]

Rays offense looks pathetic. Can’t give up more runs. No hits thus far.

[jacksonianmarch]

Cole needs to get efficient and get through 6

[TylerD]

Tie game!!!!

[d-money]

Big inning for the rays here.

[d-money]

Close the damn inning.

[d-money]

What the f*** is this pitcher doing? He gets the first two outs and now he gives up a hit and he walks the batter. Brutal.

[d-money]

This dude looks shook as f***.

[d-money]

Finally gets out of the inning.

[d-money]

The rays keep choking.
