    I don't think it's ever the plan to have someone come in for their first ever relief appearance with the bases loaded. They understandably wanted him to start with a clean inning but Maton ****ed that up.

    4 run lead erased like that. Offense doesn’t deserve that

    O man, had to come to the board after that inning. What a ****ing joke. Your one job is to throw strikes. Should have just left urquidy in over maton. Absolutely astonishing we just gave up that lead like that. France should have pitched the whole game, it’s like we have no idea these games mean something.

    "Yankees showing some grit battling back." Yes Network

    No that was another f'd up decision and Maton or urquidy not throwing the ball near the plate.

    JV didn't deserve the 1 run support.

    offense didn't deserve the pitching implosion.

    the team this year is just off.

    Diaz should be playing every day. Every f:$39,$3 manager would play him except Toothpick and Sunglasses.

    Urquidy should not have started this game.
    Maton should not be coming into the game in bases-loaded or other high-pressure relief settings.
    JP France should not be coming out of the bullpen, period. He's been doing great and it is utterly nonsensical to f**k with his usual routine at a time like this.
    Maldonado should not be in the lineup today. I don't care if he's Urquidy's personal preference or whatever.
    The common denominator in all of the above, plus a number of other problems? Dusty. Once again, he is making things 10X harder than they need to be. It's frustrating.
