2022 Yankees Season

[OrangeXtreme]

He has played adequately in the field this year, but we know he is the worst defensive player on the team. If he wants to stick around, he needs to do better than 71 wRC+ (100 is league average) in his limited opportunities.

They tried to trade him during the off season.

Nobody wanted him.

Oh do not even try to use these made up stats with me.

They matter to the people making the decisions, but I am sure you know better.

 

[PoppyHart]

I expect at least 7 scoreless from Monty tomorrow or else.

My fantasy baseball league standings suggest otherwise.

That is correct. Have to add Peacock for the early Sunday games.

I fear I’ll never turn it off. I have enough of them. Enjoying the beautiful day in the DC area instead.

The only reason I have it is Spectrum gave it to us free for a year as part of my package. I doubt I keep it after the year runs out.

Next thing you know you're watching Law & Order marathons

 

[SUFaninNJ]

As it should be. But I'm watching the hockey game and just want to hit 321 on my remote for the YES network during breaks in action. What number is Apple TV on my remote?

I just flipped back and forth on my remote from HDMI 1 (Rangers) to HDMI 2 (Yankees).

Elite Rotation Helps Yankees to Majors’ Best Start in 21 Years​

…With six straight wins and a 39–15 record, the Yankees are the best team in baseball right now. One-third of the way through the season, they have the best record of any team since the 2001 Mariners (42–12) and are just two games off the pace of the 1998 Yankees (41–13). While an offense that leads the majors in homers (80) and wRC+ (117) and is second in the AL in scoring (4.78 runs per game) has been a big part of that success, lately they’ve been dominating opponents thanks to incredible starting pitching.

Even at a time when starter usage is on the rebound from its pandemic-driven trends, what the Yankees have done lately particularly stands out. Consider what the starters have accomplished during this winning streak:
Yankees’ Starters Since May 31

Player	Date	Opp	Rslt	IP	H	R	BB	SO	HR	Pit	BF
Jordan Montgomery	5/31/22	LAA	W 9-1	7	4	1	1	4	1	87	25
Nestor Cortes	6/2/22	LAA	W 6-1	7	5	0	2	7	0	96	27
Jameson Taillon	6/2/22	LAA	W 2-1	8	2	1	0	5	0	101	26
Gerrit Cole	6/3/22	DET	W 13-0	7	2	0	0	9	0	102	23
Luis Severino	6/4/22	DET	W 3-0	7	1	0	1	10	0	92	22
Jordan Montgomery	6/5/22	DET	W 5-4	6.1	5	2	1	5	0	90	24
Total				42.1	19	4	5	40	1	568	147

That’s a 0.85 ERA, 1.92 FIP, and 27.2% strikeout rate for those starters while holding opposing hitters to a .134/.163/.190 line. The run includes back-to-back perfect game bids by Taillon and Cole, the first time that has happened since at least 1961, according to the Elias Sports Bureau…
