Gunnar can do no wrong in my mind.

It looked like he took a couple of bad steps between second and third. Nice relay by Seattle

Agreed.

Yankees were 28 games over .500 on June 14th. On July 4th, they're 19 games over .500.

It was fairly easy to see a slide coming, but I didn’t think it would be this drastic, and I still think they’ll likely get it going a bit, and probably will make significant additions, being the mercenary whores that they are.

That said, they are top heavy, their pitching never had any business being that good, and they played an emotional brand of baseball that isn’t tenable over 162. F them. I hope the slide continues as long as possible.

Yankees are a two man offense. It amazes me teams give Judge anything to hit considering what's typically behind him.

Great AB by Cowser ends in a BB.

Be nice if Cowser can get on a heater. He's gotta be feeling a little pressure with Kjerstad emerging.

Brutal AB by Mullins after just missing an XBH in the RF corner.

Worst part about Mateo making an out is that McCann has to lead off next inning.

Tony won't wow anyone with his defense, but he's turned into a very reliable RFer.

Extend him. We need 3 and 4 catchers on the 26-man.

Gunnar was just preemptively going for the cycle in the first I guess.

He was in a very short mini-slump, 1-12 with 9Ks.

He's breaking out today.

Gotta have that third catcher for the championships. Key part of the emerging dynasty that is the Baltimore Orioles.

Westy just got a tad under that one. Miller already at 55 pitches through 3. Might get to their BP early.

If they get to October with Burnes and Rodriguez both healthy and pitching like they can, this team is gonna be a very tall task for anyone in a 7 game set. Big if there, but still...

They're in a lot of trouble and Cashman doesn't have the open wallet he once had. I fully expect them to be battling the Red Sox for 2nd after the break.

Not a good 0-2 pitch.
