i dont understand how Tyler Clippard is still a Yankee Betances was the main problem last night. I don't understand how you load the bases on 2 walks and a HBP.

Yankees bullpen is shot. They've blown more leads in the 8th and 9th in the last 2 weeks than I've seen in years combined. Very worrysome. Watched the bottom of the 9th on the mlb network. One, why was he in the game for a 3rd consecutive night? Two, the pitch selection was horrific.

One, why was he in the game for a 3rd consecutive night? Two, the pitch selection was horrific. They had no choice. Chapman pitched Sunday in the loss, and then even though they led 6-1 on Monday, they BARELY held on to win Monday 6-5, and Chapman threw over 20 pitches on Monday in a game he shouldn't even have had to be in. Girardi didn't want to push it with a guy who just missed over a month with a shoulder strain. Yankees bullpen is a disaster. The last few years the Yankees would lose maybe 3-4 games a YEAR when leading after 7. Now, it's happening multiple times a week. The sad part is, they are WASTING really great pitching performances and really great clutch hitting by pissing away these leads late, when that should be almost a FORMALITY that we win games when leading after 7. They way Judge and Sanchez tied the game and then took the lead in the 8th last night was epic....but, the bullpen pissed away another one. Doesn't matter who it is, somebody in the bullpen finds a way to lose. Clippard has been the biggest issue, but even Betances and Chapman haven't been that good recently. Yankees really need to make a trade. I'd revisit the proposed trade in the offseason that would have gotten us Jose Quintana and David Robertson from the White Sox. Unless they want the farm, the Yankes need bullpen help, and another starter wouldn't be a bad idea either, just because you never know if everyone stays healthy, and the spot starts by Green and Cessa have not been acceptable.

The MEts have to Sweep Miami this series in order to get back in the playoff hunt Playoffs?! You talkin bout playoffs?!

I agree with the whole Prospects but i'd keep bruce he done a good job for us. The Bullpen is a complete ing joke.

The Yankees bullpen continues to find new, dynamic, and creative ways to lose games every night.
Last year it was No Runs DMC. This year it's All Runs 7,8,9.

ing Christ, please let Nick Williams succeed. He's off to a decent start at least. There's literally not a single positive to take away from this season, so far. Franco has regressed. Herrera has regressed. Almost every "low risk, high reward" deal has ing sucked, except for Neshek - who won't net anything significant in return. Hellickson is tanking his trade value completely. Any promise left in the bullpen is ing dead and gone. Ugh.

Zack Wheeler just did not have it today. Threw too many pitches and command was off. The Bullpen and offense picked him up as the Mets went on to win their 4th Straight and pull to within 4 games of .500 Nationals lost so they are now just 8 GB. If any type of run is going to come it has to come now with a big series in Washington and St Louis Looming ahead. We need to Sweep Philadelphia tomorrow and get on the bus with a ton of confidence. Nationals lost Trea Turner for a while so lets see if we can take advantage and at least win 2 Games in Washington.

This year it's All Runs 7,8,9. what pisses me off is that it is PAINFULLY obvious when Betances doesn't have anything, yet Joe always leaves him in. its like he's trying to lose the game, but he wants to make sure his guy "works through it" problem is, you're paying Chapman too much money to be the closer, so they aren't switching them. I wonder what the ChiSox would take for D-Rob & Quintana

This HR Derby is STACKED.
Plz let Stanton vs. Judge happen at some point.

Aroldis Chapman sucks this year. I don't think anything is physically wrong with him because he's throwing 103, but his ball just seems to have no life. Batters are picking it up EASILY. Plus, his control is bad. Too many pitches out of the zone as too many walks.
Him and Betances should learn how to throw strikes over the All Star break instead of Betances going to the ASG to celebrate all the games he's blown this season.

Trade chapman for a starter and a reliever.
Trade chapman for a bag of chips. He's lights out when he's on his A game. Once he and the rest of the bullpen find their rythym, the Yankees will win the division.

i see Logan Morrison got his daily dose of salt yesterday, who are you to say who's supposed to be in the HR derby? MLB actually wants people to watch the derby, maybe Logan Morrison should work on getting a little more "star power" before he starts saying who deserves a spot in a home run derby

Home Run Derby needs Bellinger vs. Judge and it could happen in the semi-finals with the winner going on to hopefully play Stanton. If this was wrestling that's what they are booking for. Let's hope it doesn't turn into the Free 4 All where the people they expect to win loses.

I was excited to see the Pirates were on TV today and I had nothing to do so I figured I would watch the game. Well, it's the top of the 4th and combined there has already been 5 errors, 7 hits and 5 walks and there still hasn't been a run scored. It is a Trainwreck I can't turn away from. lol

The Yankees seem shot to me. 6-17 in their last 23 games, the majority blown by the bullpen in the late innings. The Yankees have legit actually been BEAT like 4 times in that span. They've beat themselves and given the rest away. Really disappointing.
I don't think this can be fixed. The 7-9 inning was supposed to be a foregone conclusion. But now it's the weakest part of the team. Can't get rid of Chapman, I don't think they'd get rid of Betances....Clippard is really the only one you COULD get rid of.
I don't know what they do at this point.

I don't know what they do at this point. start with Clippard..... im getting tired of the excuse making "i feel like my stuff is there, i just made a bad pitch".....blah blah Clippard has given up runs every time he's been on the mound in the last month. how many chances does this guy get? its not like he's some lights out reliever like Betances, where you think....eh he's just struggling, he'll figure it out. i mean, they DFA chris carter twice because he's underperforming....clippard's given up like 28 runs and he's still getting put in close games? its ridiculous. i cant wait for the ASB, these guys need a week off.

It's good when the Braves score 13 runs in a single game. It's even better when they don't allow the Nats to score a single run in the same game.
