Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 1, 2018 Another classic drubbing. And it would be nice if the Yankees didn't throw up on themselves when they play on the big stage. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hardcore troubadour 12,657 Posted July 1, 2018 Another classic drubbing. And it would be nice if the Yankees didn't throw up on themselves when they play on the big stage. That was no drubbing. That was a shellacking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big Blue 06 195 Posted July 1, 2018 Another classic drubbing. And it would be nice if the Yankees didn't throw up on themselves when they play on the big stage. I figured this series would be 2-1 either way. Both are too good to get swept easily. Having said that, this isnt the way I thought the series would go: 8-1 and 11-0. The game tonight favors the Yankees: their ace at home against their personal punching bag in David Price. Still, anything could happen when these two play.

WhiteWonder 2,172 Posted July 1, 2018 Midway Point  AL MVP Betts NL MVP Freeman  AL CY Verlander NL CY Scherzer  AL ROY Ohtani NL ROY Soto  also on the topic of AL Cy Young candidates, he won't win it because he plays for Tampa but Blake Snell should be in the convo. What hes done so far, despite playing for Tampa, has been incredible.  After today's game he is 11-4, 2.24 ERA, 1.01 WHIP, and 123k's in 109IP for a team sitting around .500 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 2, 2018 Would have been nice to have 1 close game this series. At least for the late games, we dont have to stay up to watch this shellacking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tonights game is almost exactly the same as last nights game with the teams reversed. Severino cruising giving up 1 hit, Price being Price and we can go to sleep.

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 2, 2018 Yup. Severino vs Sale would be nice. Hopefully we get it down the line. I think the Yanks are going to get another starter and will be better positioned than the Sox to take the division, but you have to figure (hope?) that the last 3 games (at Fenway) will matter and it will be playoff bonus baseball.

That's what I'm hoping for. A season finale at Fenway with a division on the line is the best regular season baseball there is. I can't see either team running away with it at this point.

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 2, 2018 2 very odd plays in 2nd inning of Nats/Red Sox game: - Sandy Leon struck out swinging on a slider that had so much movement on it, it went between his legs - 2 batters later (after an IBB to JBJ) Porcello takes Scherzer (relatively) deep for a bases clearing double after looking silly on the first 2 strikes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 3, 2018 Interesting stats on run differential: - Seattle is 23 games over .500 (.5 GB from Houston) but their run differential is only +22 (HOU is +170) - WAS is a +32, but only 2 games over .500 - SF is 5 games over .500, but a -12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted July 3, 2018 It's not what you hit, it's when you hit. For Seattle, they can point to being 26-11 in 1-run games and 8-0 in extras. Â By contrast, Houston is 10-16 in 1-run games and 2-4 in extras. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

One big difference is run support... Severino is getting 5.42 runs of support where Snell is getting 4.26... Severino will be in the lead because he has pitched well and he plays for the Yankees (and probably a big lead), but Snell should be right on his tail...
