Buxton out of the game. Hurt himself on the basepaths.

He was due. It's been two weeks.

An argument that a pitcher pitches only every 5th game is typically provided by people who know nothing about the game and most likely never played competitively.



Perhaps you should recommend to the Yankees that Aaron Judge only plays once every five games and see what they say.

Don't assume you know anything about your audience. You have a lot of people in here from a variety of walks of life. You have no idea where most of them have been.

If you wish to frame an argument, frame away. But there's little to no value in taking pot shots at people you know nothing about, in lieu of said argument. It only makes you look cheap and lazy.

Funny you take that sentence so personally when Miles didn't even name you. It was a generic "people" further qualified by "typically".

If you actually read the full breakdown of Mile's post you should know that the Judge analogy misses the mark.

You just did a beautiful job of drawing a distinction without a difference.

They are skipping Maeda this time through the rotation. Nothing serious, just general fatigue.

The actual report is they're skipping Maeda w/o putting him on the IL because of "general fatigue".
Varland starts tonight.

Not so fast. we have three more games in New York this weekend.

Start by winning tonight and guaranteeing a split of the series and we can begin to exorcise the demons

He shut that Yankees lineup, with the noted exception of Anthony Rizzo, down.

Yankees had 4 hits in the game. Rizzo with three of them, two home runs to account for ALL of the Yankees scoring.

Ryan was nearly unhittable otherwise.

Worth noting, he put an end to Judge's on base streak.

You could read the umpires lips before the 4th..."I told you to wipe it off".

Berrios : Sucks
Martin: UCL injury, stuck at AA before that

The classic trade that didn't work out for either team scenario. Berrios ' career has gone over a cliff. Martin turned into a bust the minute he joined the Twins organization. I haven’t given up on Woods-Richardson. He had a good year last year and made a decent major league debut.
