The Guardians have officially blown the lead. Back to back doubles by the Yankees have tied the game at 4. Walker on 2B with 0 outs. The Yanks are going to pull this out.
True. It wasn't quite as much as his velocity being down a bit as it was he wasn't locating particularly well and his breaking stuff was just hanging up begging to be hit hard.
Hopefully once the weather starts getting warmer we'll see the velocity on Sale's fastball find the consistency in the mid to high 90's like we're used to seeing.
It really was a huge blessing the throw to home was well offline. I had a chance to see Martinez round 3B and by the look of it Febles has no intentions of holding JD at 3B. Fortunate as hell but I'll take it.
Goodness, Xander is a completely different hitter this season. He's not content to punch the ball the other way. He's pulling the ball with authority and has been a beast.
Their bullpen is taxed beyond belief and since Miller went on the DL, they have struggled like something fierce. It makes it worse when a closer like Cody Allen is running on fumes as well. The Guardians look like a tired team in general.
