Tell me if you’ve heard this one before: The Yankees lost in ugly fashion yesterday.

Jose Trevino was the only Yankee other than Aaron Judge to … Continue reading Let’s Talk Gerrit Cole

Yankees vs. Orioles: Gerrit Cole vs. Jordan Lyles
Before we get to tonight’s clash with the O’s, let me get my mini-rant out of the way: Exactly 300 players have a minimum of 75 PA this season, and among those 300, Kyle Higashioka’s wRC+ of 25 (TWENTY FIVE) is dead last.
