Josh Taylor pitched three straight games vs Rays....nothing against right handed heavy Yankees. He should be well rested, not pitched since 6/24.

 

Looks like he's coming in.

Renfroe has been an amazing get.

 

Just his defence has been worth the money, but wow on the offence!

 

Maybe Kike is on a run of his own.....he's had good at bats today. His walk was very impressive...usually he'd be swinging at those.

Richards location has been better. I don't care what you are throwing, if your location sucks you will suck.

 

This team should be as tailored to what he can throw as there is. KC is not selective. Swings at just about anything. Richards has been throwing the 0-0 right down main st. They have been taking those. Richards does not throw another in the strike zone for the rest of the AB and the Royals swing themselves right out of the AB.

 

The only guy Richards has not tossed the 0-0 down main st too has been Perez who will absolutely swing at anything.

 

I haven’t checked but no bbs for Richards is what saved his ass, this game. Not sure if it’s his first start without a BB.

 

You are right.

Remy keeps saying icing the arm maybe helped Richards. Richards put his arm in ice to dry it off. He then applied rosin all over to keep it dry. Maybe that improved the grip.

Coming from behind, again.

 

Winning is always great, specially when the Yankees lose. This week could be the death sentence for the Yankees and could become sellers for once and for all.

25 come from behind wins. 23 straight scoreless innings by Taylor.

 

Amazing!

 

The O's are up 3-2 on the Astros. If they hold on, we're tied for the best record in the AL, again.

Barnes-Ottavino-Taylor-Whitlock-Sawamura combo looks pretty nasty to me.

 

That is WS contender BP in my book.

Stunning win, beginning with Richards reversal after giving up 5 runs. He then went 3.2 unscored upon. Slumping Dalbec was benched in favor of hitting Dalbec. Rike continues to act as though he belongs in the leadoff position, which we all know to be impossible. The only non-surprise: bullpen 3.1 scoreless innings for the win, hold, and save. Dever's continued defensive prowess not so surprising.

 

4 in a row--wild applause, mvp78--when backs were to the wall after losing 2 of 3 in the Trop, which I swear bothered out players as much as the Rays prowess did.

 

Sox 1 up on the Rays, 6.5 on the Jays, and 7.5 on the Yanknays. And just 1/2 game behind the Astros with their astronomical (pun intended) run differential of +142.

 

Kimmi keeps reminding us that the experts say winning by just one run is luck, not merit. Tonight did not look like luck to me, especially--and I have to admit it--Garrett Richards gritty comeback after giving up 5 runs in 2 innings.
