[50] What’s really not cool is that he had to force them to tip their hand and then Cash suggests it’s a disciplinary or attitude issue, which is BS. He can’t pitch anymore.

Everyone who follows baseball knows that Chapman lost his mojo ages ago, yet they keep him around for….what reason? They don’t want to admit to a bad contract or a poor evaluation of talent.

The hypocrisy in this organization knows no bounds.

Re: Chapman.

Now I know what quiet quitting is.

Just DFA Chapman if he’s going to be a head case

Looks like it is the Guardians. I really didn’t want to face the Rays, but I think the Guardians are a good young team. It should be entertaining anyway.

So weird listening to Kaye on ABC. And the last time I remember seeing a game on ABC was Monday Night Baseball the day after we lost the Captain.

Looks like the Yankees will finish at the appropriate 99 wins.

I just checked the Yankees’ lineup and they’re apparently ceding the batting title to Arraez because they’re giving Judge the day off. I know the guy has to be tired, but I wish they’d play him anyway. They’re about to get an entire week off, so playing today wouldn’t hurt him. Considering he broke the record last night he’d have zero pressure today. He could go out and have fun.

Now, he might pinch hit. If he does, and gets a hit, he’ll finish at .3117338. That won’t catch Arraez, even if he went 0-5, because he’d finish at .312159709. So, again, they have ceded the batting title – no triple crown.

Oh well, c’est la vie.

I would hope that all Yankee and baseball fans will all rise and make a toast to Roger Maris, a classy man with a classy family. Let’s hope all that his incredible accomplishments will never be forgotten. I’m sure that the first person who agrees with this is Aaron Judge as do all the Banterers.

Maybe they should only let Cole pitch until the Yankees get the lead and then take him out the next inning.

The thing about Cole that gets me is how many home runs he gives up to the bottom of the lineup. It’s ridiculous.

Death, taxes, Cole giving up a goddamn fucking homer to lose a lead minutes the Yankees take one.

Atta boy, Cole. Way to be the “Ace.”

Jazz, if you’re still watching, there’s a great feature in the Japan Times by Jason Coskrey about Munetaka Murakami’s season for the ages.

For those not in the know he won Japan’s Triple Crown, batted .318 and had 56 HRs and 134 RBI. Leading all batting categories by wide margins, like Judge.

Is Stanton back?

All rise. Glad that happened.

However, I finally had to turn the sound off. The endless pontificating in the booth is really annoying.

Cole sets the record too, but he also has shown a propensity to cough up the lead right after the Yankees take it this year. Something to consider for the playoffs.

Gerrit strikes out the side.

Heh, Gerrit Cole sets the Yankee single-season strikeout record, and it’s an afterthought!

What a season.

[31] agree completely. 60 is a very difficult feat.

Cole is in post-season form.
