"A New York Treasure" --Village Voice
     

Hey, Ma, What’s For Dinner?

Indeed, things ended up going well for the Yanks in K.C. Lots of loud, booming sounds from the Bombers. Man, the lineup has a bunch of mashers, right? Even with Didi mired in a deep slump—he got the weekend off. Even as we wait for Greg Bird to join the fun.

Tonight, they are in Texas facing Bartolo Colon. It is great and hilarious that he is still pitching. I hope they tattoo him but if they don’t that will be hilarious too.

You know, the Red Sox are really damn good and the Astros as the defending champs and they are damn good. The Angels—who the Yanks host this weekend—look tough as well. But these Yanks, man, it’s good to be a Yankee fan these days. They will be a tough out and that’s all you can hope for.

Never mind the brisket:

Let’s Go Yank-ees!

Colon, now that Ichiro has 'retired', Big Bart the only MLB player left who is older than me..hope he keeps pitching forever!

13 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  May 21, 2018 7:40 pm

We're looking at the ROTY

14 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 7:41 pm

If we took a Gleyber Day, took time to celebrate.

15 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 7:41 pm

Hot diggity, Gleyber

16 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 7:41 pm

LFer barely moved

17 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  May 21, 2018 7:42 pm

I'm thinking Glaybar should be leading off.

18 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 7:42 pm

You’re right there pick up the fucking ball.

19 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 7:47 pm

Obligatory homer

20 BobbyB   ~  May 21, 2018 7:49 pm

Tanaka’s Achilles…

21 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 7:50 pm

Gregorious defense

23 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 8:02 pm

C'mon Tanaka ... STRIKES

24 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  May 21, 2018 8:04 pm

this kid is simply a terrific baseball player.

25 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  May 21, 2018 8:08 pm

very acceptable

26 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 8:09 pm

Janokowoski (sic)

27 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 8:09 pm

Insane depth.

28 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 8:10 pm

There we go Walker!

29 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 8:10 pm

That is fishy.

30 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  May 21, 2018 8:10 pm

that was an intentional welcome to the big rook.

31 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  May 21, 2018 8:12 pm

How dare they hit Gleyber! Who's the enforcer on this Yankee team, is Graeme Lloyd still in the pen?

(Sorry, 'Eye Of The Tiger' just came on the radio here so I'm a bit fired up)

32 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 8:13 pm

OK Jazz!

Always good to see you here!

33 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 8:14 pm

A Hogan's Heroes reference!

I KNOW NOTHING!

34 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 8:14 pm

STRIKES!!!

35 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 8:20 pm

Sub- optimal.

36 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  May 21, 2018 8:22 pm

[32] Always lurking, even when working!

Classic Rock morning here at ACME, Investigations. Boston 'More Than A Feeling' on now. If Journey comes up though I'm changing the channel.

37 cult of basebaal   ~  May 21, 2018 8:22 pm

Fuck.

38 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 8:22 pm

Tanaka fail. That's what you get.

39 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  May 21, 2018 8:23 pm

getting very tired of Tanaka's obligatory HRs

40 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 8:23 pm

Shit

41 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 8:25 pm

Paul O'Neill said earlier in the year he would never sit on an off speed pitch. I found that rather nuts.

42 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 8:26 pm

Hitting the 9 batter on 0 - 2. Oi.

43 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 8:58 pm

Bronx bombers are back, baby!

44 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 8:59 pm

So, so good.

45 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  May 21, 2018 8:59 pm

Gleyber tater!

46 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 9:04 pm

So Bartolo, HOF?

I vote yes, because how can you keep Big Sexy out.

47 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 9:07 pm

Didi! Rejoice!

48 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 9:07 pm

This is getting better

49 rbj   ~  May 21, 2018 9:19 pm

Phew

50 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 9:51 pm

Lead off walk. Always a good idea.

51 Ara Just Fair   ~  May 21, 2018 10:07 pm

This team is crazy.

52 seamus   ~  May 22, 2018 6:54 am

This is enjoyable! Btw, this years team is helping me to appreciate just how good Mantle was. "First since Mickey Mantle...", "Only Yankee except Mantle...", etc...

53 GaryfromChevyChase   ~  May 22, 2018 10:26 am

[52] The Mick was the best player I ever saw with my own eyes, live. OTOH, I never did get to see Willie Mays in person.

I can't be alone in thinking that the Judge/Sanchez/Severino/Glayber quartet reminds me of another group of Yankees. Plus Stanton and Chapman, and what seems like 11 other potential MLB regulars in waiting. Interesting to see what they'll do when Bird is eligible. I'm thinking that one or two of the youngsters would be great trade bait for another higfh level starter come July.

The twinkies released Phil Phranchise. $22.5 mil guaranteed through the end of next season. I wish someone would pay me that go home...
