It was AWESOME having Bob Costas join David Cone and Paul O’Neil in the booth for both games. He’s such a legend and melted seamlessly with both of them.
The Red Sox are FIFTEEN behind in the LOSS column.
No, I don't mind talking to myself in here because I know that the haters are watching lol
As soon as the table turns on Yankee fortunes they come a runnin
I was asking a Yankees fan friend of mine if he could ever recall any other team in MLB history that had come down with so many injuries as the '19 Yanks and still just continued to knock off their opponents right and left. We're both still searching our memories but no luck. It's amazing what they've accomplished this year given all their adversity.

As far as at the plate and in the field the Yankees have ZERO peers in the game as far as depth goes. I'm not just talking about the big league roster. Their depth is rooted much further down than that. Hands down the deepest offensive and defensive team in the game and it's not close.
I got to see them at Camden Yards last night. Lots of home runs for the Bombers. Starting pitching woes continue w/Tanaka - hopefully this will get straightened out.

You guys are doing some serious a$$ kicking. Looks like you're on a collision course with the Astros and Dodgers. Should be fun for Yankee fans.
Astros are going to be very, very tough to beat...

I'm not expecting them to beat the Astros. How could you? Their SP is on a different level. BUT, this Yankee team is only going to get better (well rounded) down the road.
Joe Torre in the booth with Paul O’Neil tonight talking about the extreme difficulty and pitfalls run into of being able to repeat back to back to back as a World Series Champs. Awesome stuff

The A's beat your ace last night in Oakland. I think you guys are right. You have a really good team this year, but your starting pitching may not be enough. Got to ask Cashman to get you some for next year.
I think it would be a miracle if you guys win it all this year. Very good team, but not enough pitching.
Tanaka is the closest thing we’ve got to a postseason ‘ace’ but your point is well taken.
BUT...
...unless it’s a no brainer starter like Gerritt Cole or Madison Bumgarner, Brian Cashman should not be picking the pitchers - at all - because he sucks at it.

The Yankees don't have an ace. German has been great but he's never been mistaken for an ACE.
Let's see how Severino pans out. I'm not counting on him but his rehab has been going well.

Red Sox are reeling. Yanks finish off a DH sweep and if the Sox lose tomorrow they go right back to the last team that just swept them. Rays

The amount of injuries the Yanks have had this year is staggering. Yesterday Encarnacion and Hicks fell.

4 game SWEEP of Red Sox
They are another three game sweep from being a .500 team
That’s crazy

I am still concerned about the fact that a new guy gets hurt every day and the rotation has no true ace.
I’m delighted by the run and the season but Houston will be very tough to beat for the rest of the AL.

Congrats on broomsticking the Sox, I was away camping with no internet so I didn’t get to see the festivities.
OH SWEET I LOVE CAMPING

Absolutely. There is PLENTY to be concerned about. Houston is an odds on favorite no question about it.

Alas, we ain't deep in SP.

Yanks decimated O’s tonight. 6 HR’s after 5 last night
COPPER is gutter !

Yanks flushed the O’s in Baltimore. Embarrassing for them. An all time season HR record in a visitors park I think it was.

Gleyber Torres lol

More like Orioles LOL. This tanking makes me ill. This O’s/Yanks Series is a joke, these are not major league games.
It's been a blast listening to the Orioles broadcasts. The Orioles have some bats but their pitching and defense is atrocious.

Down in Baltimore, I think Chris Davis wears a ski mask when he picks up his paycheck.

Should be a fun series in LA this weekend. Maybe a World Series preview to bring back the world series of my youth in 77, 78 ad 81. Good times!
Yanks were way over due for a rough patch. No better time and place than a west coast trip.
COPPER is gutter !

Yanks are in a fight for Home Field. So even though a let down is always expected in a long season, it's not like I'm OK with it. Nice sweep.
COPPER is gutter !

Yanks get swept by A’s and then wallop the Dodgers last night

Yanks blew by all time monthly HR total with a week to go
COPPER is gutter !

A good sign taking 2 of 3 at Dodger Stadium. The starting pitching actually held up pretty well this weekend.
Huge game from German. Bigger than in Boston a few weeks ago.
COPPER is gutter !

Bump for a great West Coast trip. Judge heating up. The starting pitching is coming around a bit.
Yankees absolutely owned the Red Sox all season.
COPPER is gutter !

Judge doing well finally, but Gleyber...
I do wish a dugout roof would collapse on Gardner.
He's from my wife's hometown and was never really popular. Very small town and not one person speaks highly of him or his brother.
Who cares .... he’s been an excellent Yankee
COPPER is gutter !

Well, dugout repairmen for one.
Parents and sportsmanship for two.
Solid effort over Twins tonight. Yankees won’t be easy to beat.
COPPER is gutter !

Twins pitching isn’t ready for this kind of stage. This is probably a sweep.
