    Yankees good chance at losing today, would go back to 3 1/2 game lead.

    Dumb decision after dumb decision.

    This is why he's never won a WS.

    I'm truly confounded l. Can anyone give me a reasoning in Montero becoming the default closer with Pressly being out?

    Hopefully. It looks like their offense is back to being in the crapper.

    You would think it would be Stanek or Neris (who actually has experience in the role).

    But no, this is one of those ride or die situations with Dusty.

    Would you rather him have that inning when it was 0-0?

    Baker squeezed 5 scoreless innings from the bullpen today after getting 4 scoreless innings yesterday

    Because otherwise Dusty doesn't know what to do.

    So is calf tightness anything to worry about for the rest of the season?

    That was Montero's 9th save this year.

    This time, but he has not proven himself to be dependable. Some heartbreaking collapses raise doubts. Anyway everybody is a work in progress, so whatever. But, every time he runs out there, I am like, oh no.
