  1. If Cora says to Chapman, will you be ready to close this out tonight, you know Chapman is going to be ready. He'd probably pitch all 3 games if he had to.
  2. Sox were underdogs at approx 33% chance to win, now at 62.4%. Yankees were given the highest likelihood of yesterday's losers to comeback after the game 1 loss.
  3. He wouldn't be in prospect lists anymore because he's graduated.
  4. It wasn't Showalter (92-95). Would have had to be Torre? They ended the season vs the Sox in 96 and 05. I couldn't find any quotes about Steinbrenner blowing up about it. In 05: The Yankees wrapped up another AL East title Saturday at Fenway Park. But New York's loss to Boston on Sunday cost the club home-field advantage in this series and sent the team trekking across the country. Steinbrenner repeatedly has expressed confidence in Torre. Asked this week through spokesman Howard Rubenstein what he had to say about the manager, the Boss declined to respond, with Rubenstein saying Steinbrenner was concentrating on the end of the season.
  5. No reason to hold back Chapman yesterday. No idea if they'll even need him tonight. Win the games you can win no matter what.
  6. He wasn't, but the Twins didn't want any of the Sox's offers. Sox would have had to go overboard to get Ryan. They offered Tolle, Abreu and more and didn't get it done.
  7. He wasn't going to be on the Red Sox unless they gave up Roman, Tolle, Early and Abreu.
  8. Career: 61 tOPS+, best against any team with more than 6 GS (Marlins, Rockies and Pirates had lower tOPS+ in small sample sizes) 2.35 ERA
  9. Unless he has a big lead or is cruising, probably need to pull him after 5. You got rested arms in the pen, use them.
  10. He's struggled down the stretch, but is a certifiable Yankee Killer. We'll see how tonight goes.
  11. Overall, he's a very good manager. We just see the moves that don't work out because we watch 162 games every year. Most of the other managers are far worse.
  12. I'm not sure he put the best lineup out there tonight. Fried has a reverse split and Cora just said "we're going with righties because that's what we always do" even though Masa has been hitting the ball really well lately. Needed a bullpen meltdown (and Masa) to win the game.
  13. I'm fine with the middle relief. Just bring them in for clean innings. Don't do the "let Bello put a or two runner on" gimmick. They have one of the best bullpens in the league. Just go to them early and secure a win if up.
  14. Game 1 is the 15th day. He's not eligible until Game 2, I believe.
  15. Pitching wins championships. See how Bello holds up tomorrow.
  16. Has that happened before? Seems unlikely?
  17. Will most likely miss all of October per Cora. 🎈
  18. "Rolled with righties (and trying to ignore Masa) all year"
