They put up a .692 winning % in their toughest stretch of the season. .692 is higher than any winning % in baseball other than their own.

But it feels like they are on a collision course. I wouldn't want it any other way. Red Sox in the divisional Astros in ALCS Dodgers in the WS That would be my ideal lineup of opponents I'd like to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg S Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Overall not a bad weekend getting the split in this 4 game series. It sucked getting no-hit on Saturday. It looked like that would happen again yesterday. But Stanton, DJ, and Judge all go yard for an exciting comeback win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both games were close enough for a no-no to turn into an oh-no in 10 pitches or less for the Astros.........and the second one did. I'd like to see the Yanks address the lineup with another hitter who can actually get hits when needed and move Gallo or Hicks out. Benintendi is an oft-mentioned option. He's not great but should be a cheap add for some team and can get hot and hit .330 for a few months and ultimately be a high 700's OPS guy which is a lot better than the .630 Hicks and Gallo have been running out there. Also Carpenter should be platooning with Donaldson at this point too. With Gleyber possibly, unfortunately out for a while maybe Carpenter gets some at bats. "Carpington".......as Carlos called him one game........ has played well enough to warrant a chance to show that he can't do it on a regular basis. Hopefully Donaldson doesn't turn into the next Hicks as the guy that has to play just because of his contract status. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T&C Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Pretty cool. https://nysmusic.com/2022/06/26/yankees-announce-upcoming-jerry-garcia-bobblehead-night/ Count the New York Yankees as one of the many entities lined up to celebrate the late Jerry Garcia’s upcoming birthday. August 1 will mark what would have been the legendary artist’s 80th birthday and to celebrate, the Yankees are breaking out the bobbleheads. The first 1,000 fans to purchase a special event ticket for that night’s game against the Seattle Mariners will receive the collectible Garcia bobblehead figurine, adorned in a Yankees jersey, pinstripes and all. Portions of the ticket sales will also benefit the Grateful Dead’s longtime non-profit, Rex Foundation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NobesBLO13 Posted June 27, 2022 Share Posted June 27, 2022 Carpenter has earned more playing time. I get why he was brought in but he can contribute much more than they’re allowing him. Gallo is lost right now. Bring up anybody that isn’t an automatic strike out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leading league in stolen bases, hitting for power, playing excellent defense. Had a walk-off HR to clinch a playoff spot (league has a first half of season winner).
