Can you be angry at a team when you’ve got no expectations? The Yanks lost again last night. Had a 3-1 lead, and Eovaldi pitched pretty well but not long enough, and the bullpen blew it. The offense rallied but came up short.
Final Score: Orioles 7, Yanks 5.
I wish I could feel outrage, despair, something other than resignation. But there it is.
It was nice to see Alex Rodriguez’s home run. Man, that was a bomb. I don’t imagine he’ll stay healthy this year but pretty wild to watch a guy well past his prime do something like that.
Man, once the 6 - 9 hitters come to bat this team makes you want to poke your eyes out.
I never used to go to bed during the game. Last night I left at 7-3, and I don't care about the next 2 runs.
I hope Didi has a short term deal. Bring on Jorge Mateo! I don't care if he's 18!
I was following the game online, and was surprised to find the rest of it on my DVR when I got home.
Lesson learned: I should have gone outside to play with my kids and enjoyed the last of the daylight hours. The silver lining was that I could fast forward through the commercials, and most the horrible collapse.
2) Didi does look like he is pressing, and this is not unexpected. If this proves to be a lost season for the team, I say give him a shot for a few months first. He might be in over his head, but I would give him more time.
It is tough to play in NY, just ask Brian McCann. Nice sac fly last night, it was almost an extra base hit, but like a lot of the Yanks he can't seem to catch a break right now.
It's going to be a long season. And not in a good way. I thought pitching and defense were supposed to be pluses this year.
Wow, that home run sure did have a pretty sound.
[5] yeah, A-Rod's swing looks pretty frickin' beauteous. good for him! (and us...)
