Interesting to see the Twins actually scoring against the Yankees and keeping leads. They have been their crux the past 20 years, woefully in the post season.
Yankees lack star pitching, but who are they going to get on the market? Stroman's name is floating a lot, but he's more of a number 2 at best or a top tier 3. I think Boyd would be their strongest play. He'd really benefit from that lineup support and brings some punch. Shouldn't cost much either. Wheeler is probably more of a stretch.
Oil Can is still around?
Remember when Oil Can went off the reservation when he didn't get picked for the All Star game? (1986 I think). I was working a summer job with a painting crew and we were heading home after working a long day and cutting through Chelsea to avoid traffic and we saw this guy on the sidewalk who looked like Can having an animated conversation with someone. We said, can't be him cause it was less than an hour till game time and he would have been at Fenway. Find out later that night he had done his disappearing act due to the AS snub and sure enough it was him, Chelsea turned out to be where he bought his crack apparently.
Ha, just not a fan of giving up any games in the standings to Boston. Really could have put the screws to them this weekend.
No of course not, but in other years this could have been a much bigger disaster. They still come out of that series with probably a 90% chance to win the division.
I have no idea what Cashman has up his sleeve, but it better be good. Passing on Stroman, especially with the package that got him, on an already thin market seems risky...
