Sevy to start the Wild Card Game + more roster updates and thoughts
The Wild Card roster is starting to take shape! The Yankees announced that Luis Severino will be taking the ball on Wednesday night in the Bronx, hoping to redeem himself for the abysmal second half of this season, as well as last year’s Wild Card Game against the Minnesota Twins. I think this is ultimately the right move when you consider how Boone, Cashman, and Co. are planning to attack this game. It isn’t like a normal start. If it were, my first choice would probably still be Masahiro Tanaka and I would have been very okay with JA Happ...
Game 2 Rays Recap: Tuesday September 25: 9-2 WIN: Sevy is Basically Back (I think), Gary is Basically Back (I also think) And We Scored a Bunch of Runs
Sooo. The main question after this game is: "have we seen enough from Sevy for him to start the Wild Card Game?" And yes, I'm writing this on Friday - I'm an honest man, wouldn't lie to you guys. But the question still applies, even if we've had days to consider it! Sevy's line on Tuesday was: 5 IP, 4 hits, 2 ER, 3 walks, 7 Ks The man cruised through the first 2 innings, like Dominic Toretto down the streets of LA. Yes, that was another Rovell/Mike Greenberg joke. I try to embrace my corny side and throw a...
Update: Who’s Who Of the September Call-Ups
UPDATE 9/18: I promised I’d update this as we got more guys up, and now is the time! The Yankees have brought up a bunch of new guys since I originally posted this, so here we go. Justus Sheffield If you’re here, I am sure you know who Justus Sheffield is. The Yankees called up their top prospect, a left handed pitcher, upon the conclusion of Triple-A Scranton’s season. Justus had a 2.56 ERA in 20 AAA games (15 starts) while limiting damage via the home run (0.31 HR/9 in AAA). The Yankees moved him to the bullpen last month...
Game 2 A's Recap: Tuesday September 4: 5-1 WIN: A Depressing Game for 6+ Innings Ends in Happiness, and Luke Voit is MY First Baseman
NOTE FROM ME, JOHNNY *This is a happy recap...the next recap? Ehh, not so much. That is all.* Wow. What a game. Emotions were front and center during this one. And I HATE emotions. Maybe that's the reason I've subconsciously sabotaged every meaningful relationship I've had. I'm sorry, Brittney, Lindsay, and Sarah...(psst, I made those names up..or did I?). But for real, this game SUCKED for the first 6 innings. JA "Peanut Butter" Happ was pitching an absolute gem. For those of you new to these recaps, I started to refer to Happ as "peanut butter" because he is dependable and...
Who’s Who of the New September Guys
The Yanks have made a lot of changes to the roster complexion recently, huh? They made a couple of trades, guys are getting healthy, and, of course, there are oodles of guys called up to the big league roster as minor league seasons are ending and the rosters have expanded to 40 in the MLB level. Pretty silly that they’re allowed to just do that, but they are! Let’s talk about who these new guys are. Andrew McCutchen You know Andrew McCutchen. You like Andrew McCutchen. My full thoughts on the trade for Cutch can be found here, but the...
