I think part of it is too that the team is exhausted. That stretch of 29 games in 30 days in June is catching up to them. Definitely agree, we need a starter and pen help now.
So in their genius, the Yankees deliberately threw at Gunnar last night. He ends up scoring, making the game 5-1. The Yanks did tie it 5-5 in the 9th to lose in the 10th.
You don't hit Gunnar on purpose, you win. Good job.
He's definitely lost right now. That being said in the past 30 days only O'Hearn, Adley, Cowser and Gunnar have an OBP above .300. They have to get some patience at the plate
Boston: 0/6 in their last Game 7s, haven't won a Game 7 since 2012-13 (against Toronto that they almost blew a 3-1 lead)
Toronto:0/6 in their last winner take all games (2020 Bubble playoffs they lost in Game 5 in the prelim round), haven't won a Game 7 since 2003-04.
The moveable object versus the resistible force.
Juan Soto "I didn't like Kremer's shuffle, I bet he didn't like the homer either". You lost. Shut up. As if the Yankees could get anymore insufferable.
I'll say it again: The Blues would have been the 8 seed in the East, yet missed the playoffs by 6 points in the West. The Caps really had no business in the playoffs.
