The Yankees really need to figure out what's going on here, because it's been real tough to watch the last few weeks. The bullpen has blown a TON of games, and the Yankees have shown a real lack of clutch hitting during this period of time. The starting rotation has been pretty good during this time, but still not being able to win games due to the bullpen and just not scoring runs. Yanks were great for 3 and a half months, but the last 2-3 weeks have been atrocious. They need to get it together quick. Already lost best record in AL to the Astros (at least for now). Definitely don't want to face them in the ALCS (if we get there) and NOT have home field against Houston. I'm sure this is just a blip, but I sure haven't had fun remembering what it's like for the first time in a while to have to watch BAD Yankees baseball. yeah its been atrocious to watch since the ASB really. and Cashman's "deadline" moves are not exactly lighting the world on fire. I was happy to get Beni to be honest, but he hasn't really done anything. trading Monty was beyond stupid, and its really weird how ever since the trade deadline they've been WORSE... you're supposed to get better at the deadline when you're a playoff team i know injuries haven't helped, but these guys are not playing good. they aren't doing anything that they were doing when they were winning games. not stealing bases, not playing for hits. its like they've all regressed back to 2021 because Judge hits home runs, and everyone wants to be like him.

Idk what it is but we just can't beat the Mets for some reason.
It's like an alternative universe where we just cannot hit the ball. A 2-1 win Friday and then two shutout losses. Wtf.....

Walker Buehler is out for the year and Kersh is still on the DL but might be back next month.

This is actually incredible what's happened to the Yankees. 3 weeks ago, they were on pace to BLOW by the 1998 Yankees....now, I don't even think they'll win 100 games There's a growing possibility that they won't win the Division. I wonder if they could lose enough games to miss the Postseason all together? That would be absolutely shell shocking. That would probably get Boone and Cashman fired. The 2021 Yankees are back!

The Joey Gallo curse.
At the beginning of this horrid run, a buddy at work joked that he wondered what betting odds he could get on the Yankees failing to finish over .500…. I’ll be hearing about that yet again when I go back to work tomorrow.
Could failing to win their first playoff series spell the end for Boone?

Nice win tonight for the Phillies. 3 of 4 for a series win against the Reds.
Got Pittsburgh this weekend then out west for some late night games.
And it's looking very promising that Bryce FREAKIN' HARPER will join the team when they head to Arizona.

Could you not play cupcakes every day? Geez.
Everyone over here is going crazy about Harper playing at LHV all week. Saw he had 2 HR's last night.

So the Mariners were able to see that they had a great young talent and locked him up. Wish the Red Sox knew how to do that with Devers before he becomes another Mookie Betts.

I get that it's a big happening that Judge might get over 60 HRs.
But dammit Fox stop cutting away from my Phillies to show him. I really don't care to have my game cut out to see.

I don’t really care for the existence of the Phillies, but whatcha gonna do?😂
I’m not sure I’ve ever watched a regular season game like the Yankees game tonight. The anticipation every time Judge comes up, booing every pitch that is a ball, and I think the Red Sox factor added to it even more. It didn’t feel like it mattered whether we were winning or losing. Then the breathtaking drive to CF in the 9th that looked like it was going to be a walk-off HR. The disappointment that it didn’t go out nearly felt like it was a season-ending out. Absolutely fascinating to watch.

Albert Pujols hit home run #700. What a resurgent, final season he is having. And he can still do plenty of damage in the postseason.

Where were you when… Aaron Judge hit #61?
Not in front of my TV like I would’ve enjoyed most for the moment, but rather in Philadelphia at AEW Dynamite. Apologies to Saraya and the women involved in that segment, but at least I was able to get the stream up in time on my phone to see history (had missed the two previous at-bats).
ALL RISE

You know as well as I do we’re not even going to make the World Series. If we beat Cleveland, the Asssstros will take care of us.

Welp Yanks are blowing it and something different, The Astros in the ALCS, if the Yankees lose im checking out. I have no interest in any type of Astros/Guardians/Padres/Phillies world series.
