Maldanado leading off the next inning. I’m not even joking anymore that we should lead him off. The man is getting on base!
It's time for some hot rod Hensley at DH. Mancini seems like an awesome guy but he has **** the bed for us.
So seven of our nine positions in the lineup are anywhere from at least okay to really good or brilliant. Only DH and Altuve are the issues. We feel really confident Jose will turn it around.
I hope McCullers isn't too rusty after sitting that long. The Astros damn near batted around that inning and the Yankees reliever had a long time to warm up.
Yeah, and with Cortes already pulled and Peralta already at 21 pitches, Dusty doesn't need to worry about burning pitchers and giving the Yankees the bullpen edge tomorrow. If Lance struggles early, pull him. They can just focus on winning this game now, regardless of how many pitchers get used.
