Not bad
-
Health has been an issue for Trout the past several years. There's no question what he can do when he's playing, but he hasn't played a full season since 2016. -
Houston had won 8 of their last 11 when they played the Yankees. The Rays had won 6 of their last 8 when they played the Yankees. Your feelings about the Yankees don't change reality. For as good as Boston has played and as poorly as the Yankees have played, the Sox are only one game up on them.
-
Initial report is that it was just a cramp. So he'll probably be out until July.
-
Seems like most of the teams that were predicted to finish near the top this season are performing worse than expectations. Still the Yankees have managed to stay over .500 while playing pretty bad baseball. And only two teams have won at least 60% of their games so far (which translates to about 97 wins in a full season), so it's not like anyone is running away from the rest of the league. The White Sox were expected to be good but not great. They have a .625 winning %, but that's inflated by going 12-4 against the mighty Tigers/Royals/Twins. The Giants have a .610% but who knows if that's sustainable. I'm pretty sure this was a rebuild year for them, but admittedly I have not watched any of their games so I can't comment much on them.

Just keeping it warm for Boston 😁
-
Possibly, but this has happened basically every year for the past 10 or so years (starting with Teixeira's "minor leg bruise" that turned out to be a fractured leg). Everything is considered a minor injury until it isn't.
-
Funny how it went from "just a day off to get him off his feet", to "just a minor pull that we want to get ahead of", to several missed games and now on the IL. Are other teams this poor (or maybe dishonest?) with their injury diagnoses or is it just a Yankees thing?
-
I proposed this trade to you in the league.
-
I don't think it would've mattered since I had already won ERA, WHIP, and Ks. But one would've expected Mongomery to pitch better and deeper into a game against the O's. The one that hurt was Dylan Cease getting pulled after 5 and 2/3 innings yesterday even though he was only at like 80 something pitches and had only allowed 1 run. That quality start would've at least gotten me a tie for the week. Oh well, nice win. Your pitching almost came back against me as well.
-
I'll take him off your hands. How about Ohtani (pitcher) for him?
-
How come nobody, including yourself, has picked up Pivetta in our fantasy league? If he's so great I would think a league full of Sox fans would want him. Or maybe nobody is buying in to his good start.
-
Wheels came off for Kluber that inning. Not sure how he went from dotting the corners batter after batter to having no clue where the ball is going in the span of one batter.
-
Doesn't look like I'm coming back in any offensive categories anyway, my guys are hitting like the Yankees. So hope Judge hits two more. I'm hoping someone on my team can get a steal though, guess it's hard when nobody gets on base.
-
Teixiera had that injury twice in his career. Once he had to get season ending surgery, the other he missed three games and finished second in MVP voting. Depends on the severity.
-
Needed a good laugh after tonight's drubbing, thanks. I do like your optimism though.
-
It's possible, and we'll be able to evaluate that in a couple of months. Right now all we can do is make guesses based on past and recent performances.
-
It's still too early to write off any team. Boston's pitching might have been overperforming early on but their lineup is legit. Do I think they're a top team? No. Maybe a fringe wild card team if they continue to hit and their pitching doesn't totally suck. But time will prove that out. It usually takes until around the All-Star break to see who the real contenders are.

Yep, trade didn't work out for either of us -

Kaprielian making his first career start. I was big on him when he was with the Yankees and kinda bummed when he got traded, but injuries really derailed his career. Good to see him finally get a shot. -
Good defensive game for Sanchez too. Big play throwing out a runner off a wild pitch in the 9th. No way Higgy has the arm to make that play. Monty also had his best outing of the season with Sanchez calling the game, does that make him his personal catcher?! Being serious though, Sanchez is trash most days but then sucks you back in with his potential when he has games like this.
-
Hoping he gets rocked this week
-
1 and a half now baby
-
I guess that's what I get for posting stats on how great the bullpen has been.
-
Green looked off but that was a great swing by Altuve. That pitch was at his eye level and he still crushed it.
