Yankees’ Zack Britton on Domingo German return: ‘Sometimes you don’t get to control who your teammates are’ https://t.co/AehmVMc8qn pic.twitter.com/MANnJT74gA

It sounds way worse taken out of context like that, tbf.

Red flags are up already about German’s state of mind. On Wednesday night, he posted a bizarre “everything is over” message in Spanish on his Instagram account. He quickly deleted that post and then wrote a new one in Spanish that stated, “I’m ready.”

?

Gardner returns (again)
Would have liked to have Frazier

I’m sure Frazier will have a leg up in the everyday job

yanks lineup is extremely right-handed

Feeling really good
Can’t wait for Thursday

Big Gary smashing one, has to feel good, then runs around the base paths looking like he’s stuck in a massive line at Costco

last in our hearts, last in the american league

This year is turning out all right!

last in our hearts, last in the american league

11 hits in this three-game series

Giancarlo! He can't hit it real far-lo!

enjoying all the insane twitter despair about a team that's still projected to win an AL-best 90 games. lotta mr snrubs out there

I like adler’s parent-disappointed-in-the-fanbase voice

You love to see it.

Team hasn’t had a losing season in 29 years, so I guess this is “adversity”.

Brian Cashman: "We just need to calm ourselves down, go back to the basics”

Just 26 guys in a room

team batting

.205/.296/.334
83 wRC+
-0.1 fWAR

most valuable position player is backup catcher kyle higashioka at 0.4 WAR; he has 16 PA

Stanton 3 for his last 33
Frazier no RBIs in last 67 plate appearances
Aghhhh

we're not, or at least shouldn't be, anywhere near it -- he's a solid manager, cashman is too calm and too smart, and hank is no george -- but i do wonder what it would take to get boone fired

I've been out of NYC metro for last three weeks so haven't been able to relish the yankees calls on wfan.

Calls when the yankees are winning or losing are essentially the same

Only the level of schadenfreude changes.

Number of hitters in the starting line up today hitting over .200: 3

The Home run Stroka

higgy slugging .622 i.e. fuckin carrying this team

One World Series in 20 years. Who do you think you are, the Phillies? Not so easy to win championships when you can't buy every 'roided up FA around, eh?

Lol

Sorry about my enthusiasm.

Would love to go to subway series with calstars, mookie, et. al.

At least 5 Yankees coaches have tested positive for COVID-19, sources tell ESPN. https://t.co/UsxRihOXfB

TFW your number 3 hitter is hitting .214

What made that fastball come and blow you away?

Stanton is such a slob, it is hilarious the Yanks are going to be stuck with him for another 6-7 seasons.

the yankees lineup is completely ridiculous now. these gargantuan sluggers striding around like trees.

The Yankees are averaging 4.3 runs/game this season, 20th in MLB and 5th-worst in the American League

Fewest runs/game, AL teams this season
Rangers 3.9 (541/139)
Orioles 4.2 (575/138)
Royals 4.2 (582/139)
Mariners 4.3 (596/140)
Yankees 4.3 (598/139)

I think they are trying to not make the playoffs tbh

Jays just tryin harder.

i wish this game had the old callup rules so we could see the 80th guy in the yankees bullpen it's 8:45PM and we just finished the third

the only possible explanation for this is that he was trying to avoid a bullshit 'blocking the plate' call, but fortunately no one even tried to suggest that

Gary Sanchez is next-level terrible 😂 pic.twitter.com/0nG1mMuJyU

haha

Unbelievable. Little league shit

hate when the yankees win important games

gerrit cole’s pretty good. and eovaldi had nothing. but yeah. at least now the sox will get rid of those stupid uniforms. it’s crazy how dominant the sox look over bad teams and how helpless they look playing good ones.

and like, the yanks’ inclusion in that latter category is slightly debatable

Haters get the fuck out

i hear you cluckin

but also at best you get to host the wild card game

Can’t you hear me Cluckin

3 more games dudes, let’s not mess this up

no, mess it up.

Boys in trouble
Shit gettin real

no, mess it up.

She’s probably scored more than the Yankees did today!

damn

Apparently there is a minor scandal about the Yankees celebrating by spraying a turtle with champagne?!

hitting coach marcus thames and 3B coach phil nevin out

Phil gonna sleep in every damn day next summer

they're gonna keep boone

I was going to say that it seemed like a low bar for number-retirement, but then I found a list of all the numbers the Yankees have retired--22--and it seemed reasonable...although it's ridiculous that Willie Randolph isn't on the list (twice as many WAR as O'Neill as a Yankee).

https://www.mlb.com/news/paul-o-neill-number-21-to-be-retired-by-yankees

https://www.yankeenumbers.com/retired.asp

also ridiculous that willie randolph ~somehow~ never got another shot as a manager after going 302-253 with the mets

o'neill did win four titles with the yankees, but i have a feeling it has more to do with westchester county irish americans than his actual performance

That, plus Seinfeld.

sometimes the world is so unfair to brian cashman

Todays game was nuts. Cole getting smoked in the first, Jizzo’s HR, news about Jaws’ not signing, Stanton’s eyebrow muscle sending a bullet to the porch in right, Higgy solid
