So I'm sitting there watching these games last night.

0:02.1

And it's the same reoccurring theme over and over and over again, especially for the Yankees.

0:06.5

Although they hit the under for you. Well, yes. In terms of K's. You gave me the under of seven. What would you say? 15 and a half was the... 13 and a half. Was it 13 and a half? 13 and a half? 13. They ended up with 11. And the problem with that is the last inning.

0:20.6

They ended with three straight, which is a problem when you get the lead off man on base. There's so much from yesterday's Yankee game not to like about this. Here's the positive. The positive would be Garrett Cole, I know he was charged with three runs, but he comes out of the game in the seventh, having given up two runs, and yes, he was responsible for the man on base. So I give you that. That's the positive. The negative is this Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger situation is just worse and worse by the day. I think starting out with a strikeout every game now, it's not great. So I think you've got to move him out of the top of the order. I don't want to tell Aaron Poon what to do, but he's got to do something. I mean, they have four games left. They got the raise, obviously, today, and then three at Washington before the break. Now, what they could do themselves a favor and hopefully win today and then try to sweep the nationals

1:13.2

and go into the break and everybody get the hell out of here.

1:15.5

Sure.

1:16.3

And then come back and when their schedule, when they come back, you know, they start with the Dodgers.

1:21.3

I mean, it's it's not going to be an easy second half schedule.

1:24.1

It never is for anybody.

1:25.0

But with the way the Yankees are playing right now.

1:28.2

And without any answers as to when Aaron Judge or Stanton or Frieder coming back, although

1:34.3

Freed is getting closer, I mean, guys like Cody Bellinger, Anthony Volpe, this Paul Goldschmidt

1:40.6

situation, Austin Wells, I mean, there are so many holes in their lineup. And I think

1:45.3

we all know this. I mean, we're not, you know, breaking new ground here. We're all watching it.

1:51.4

It's all frustrating. I can't even imagine, you know, what is going through the minds of the players

1:57.2

themselves, let alone the fans. We're probably disgusted by all of this.

2:01.4

And I don't know what the manager can do. I mean, he's trying. He's trying stealing bases.

2:06.1

They're trying to do different things. But I will say this, comparing them to the Tempe

2:11.2

race right now as they sit. You know, the Yankees have about, you know, $90 million sitting

2:16.4

on the sideline. They do. All right. So the raise, on the Yankees have about, you know, $90 million sitting on the sideline. They do.

2:17.7

All right.

2:18.2

So the raise, on the other hand, have three pitchers, three starting pitchers who have each started 17 games for the raise.
