    I don't get the ARod not playing everyday. They're basically saying he can't hit against a mediocre right handed starter. But in an important part of the game he can hit a very good rh relief pitcher.

    Looking to extend a solid run of six June starts during which he posted a 2.75 ERA with 49 strikeouts, Michael Pineda reverted back to his early-season form, giving up five runs across six innings. Four of the five runs were scored with two outs in the second frame, highlighting two of his biggest statistical bugaboos this season: early-game troubles and difficulties closing out innings.

    He’s now allowed 17 runs in the first inning, and 17 runs in the second inning this season (compared to 25 runs in all other innings combined). The 34 total runs given up in the first and second frames are the second-most by any pitcher the majors, behind only James Shields (38). Pineda also now leads all MLB pitchers with 37 two-out runs allowed.

    Pineda will enter the All-Star break with first-half statistics that are both dominant (113 strikeouts in 95 1/3 innings) and dreadful (3-8 record, 5.38 ERA).

    The Good: his strikeout rate of 10.69 per nine innings is the second-best in franchise history before the break (min. 60 innings), just a hair behind David Cone’s 10.72 in 1997. The Bad: he is the second Yankee pitcher to make more than 10 starts before the break and post an ERA of at least 5.30 with a win percentage of .273 or worse; the other, coincidentally (or not), was David Cone in 2000 (1-7, 6.40 ERA in 16 starts).

    Putting it all together, his mix of strikeout excellence and awful run prevention is unprecedented in baseball history. Pineda’s 5.38 ERA is the highest by any pitcher heading into the All-Star break who also had a strikeout rate of at least 10 batters per nine innings and at least 75 innings pitched.

    Why are they depriving us of seeing Alex get to 700 hr?

    If the Indians had a good lefty in the pen we might still be losing. Surprising how they haven't been hurt by it as they're in 1st.

    Perhaps they need a left in the pen...

    Not a bad series to close out the first half. Still hope they sell, but watching them beat a good team and good starters is always fun.

    Cashman wants to sell but Levine and Hal don't.

    What I want to see by August 1st is Beltran, Chapman, and maybe Romine traded. And bring up Judge and Sanchez and have them play the rest of the way. Let ARod dh. Either the young guys can give them a spark or they'll suck and maybe get into a good draft position for whatever that's worth.

    I just hope we don't get burned with what we get back.

    Better sell after that Boston trade.

    The Marlins were asking. They need another starter if they want to make a run. Pineda has great stuff. If he figures it out it'll be a big loss. If traded

    Sell and plan for the future! We aren't going anywhere this year.

    With this recent hot streak the Yankees will not sell even though they should for their future well being.

    We shall see who's in charge...

    Chapman...gone
    Beltran...gone
    Miller...get a ransom, no need to give away at this point
    McCann...see what you can get
    Tanaka...hold him for a ransom, but he should be on the block
    Gardner...not a desperate trade, but definitely a chip
    Ellsbury...lol but see what you can get, eat money

    Aim for 2019 after they sign Harper. Any player who won't be good then should be on the block
