A-rod and Ortiz failed the same PED test, on the same day, in the same location. I’ll never understand how Ortiz seemingly gets a pass while Bonds, Ramirez, Clemens, and A-rod get vilified.

A lot of you owe Robinson Cano an apology. Dude played 160 games for 7 years in a row. The thought of a current Yankee doing that today is legit unfathomable.

When I was a kid, everyone blamed the big market teams like the Yankees for “ruining the game” by spending. Only took 20 years but seems like the average fan finally understands that it’s the non spenders that ruin everything.

Yankee fans get sucked into the dumbest arguments. Who cares if people think Judge is the face of baseball? Who gives a shit if Met fans think Alonso is better than him?
All that matters is getting to 28. That’s it.

The Yankees are 3.5 games up in the east despite the best pitcher in the world not throwing a single pitch and the Orioles having a significantly easier starting schedule.
This has been the absolute best case scenario as we hit the 1/3 mark of the season.

Wait Boone said he would’ve pulled his players off the field if he was Cora? That’s interesting because when the same exact situation presented itself in 2018 at Fenway, he sat there with his thumb up his ass blowing bubbles. Give me a break.

94.45 career ERA at Yankee Stadium
Serious question…
What argument could you make for any other player over Shohei Ohtani for MVP?
The guy literally dominates at the plate and on the mound. Not a single other player even attempts that, much less succeeds at it.
He’s the definition of “most valuable”.

Most fans think the AJ Burnett expirement was a failure (4.79 ERA as a Yankee).
But this one start made everything worth it. Imagine heading to Philly down 0-2?
34 days until Opening Day shoutout to AJ Burnett. Burnett played only 3 seasons in Pinstripes but etched his name forever in Yankees history with an outstanding performance in Game 2 of the 2009 World Series. That night he allowed just 1 run in 7 innings.

Agreed this time, but lots of people wanted to trade Judge AND Sanchez to Philly for Cole Hamels in 2015. That would’ve been catastrophic
Clint Frazier and Miguel Andujar, arguably the 2 worst defenders in baseball, got in the way of the Yankees getting Gerrit Cole. Trade your prospects.

Voit has kind of wrestled the main leadership role from Judge. Partly because he says what needs to be said, and also he doesn’t miss time

Good Morning,
Aroldis Chapman is an absolute lock for the hall of fame.
He has a 1.71 playoff ERA as a Yankee and has never blown a save in the playoffs. Allowing a homer to a guy wearing a pitch recognition buzzer does not make him a “playoff choker.”
Have a great day.

Yes, the manager that’s never been to a World Series is better than the manager that won 4 of them. Some sharp analysis right here.
In 30-plus years doing this in New York, I have covered superb managers such as Joe Girardi, Joe Torre and Bobby Valentine. No was better managing the 9 innings than Buck Showalter.

Two things to remember:
1. Yanks have played only 4 of their 16 games at home (4-0). They play their next 9 games at home, and 16 of the next 18 in NY.
2. September schedule couldn’t be easier. They only have 2 games against teams over .500
