He is the only player to pitch a perfect game after allowing more than seven runs in his previous start.

I think he's the only player convicted of domestic violence and also throw a perfect game.

How did he get convicted of a crime when no charges ended up being filed?

Ah you're right.  He slapped the shit out of his wife in front of the whole organization and they didn't do anything but suspend him.

I guess that's one way of celebrating another loss?

Disgrace

Sole possession of last place

As much as I want Mattingly to be the manager. Not while they're on their downfall. I want the past 31 years Yankees

Cashman should see what the Giants will give up for Judge.

Good win last night.  Sevs pitched good. at least.

Cliffy6745

Just a disgrace of an organization at this point. 

Cliffy6745

Complete and utter dogshit

yankees failing their audition for Ohtani.

He's better off staying where he is.

Cashman should offer to eat half of Judge's salary and see what the Giants will trade for him. Team has about 17 holes on the 26-man roster.
Game was on MLB network last night. Could not believe the dogshit lineup the mighty NY Yankees were fielding. Torres' .263 BA was the highest in the lineup. (By 20 points!). 3 guys sub-Mendoza. At least Mike Stanton's 1-4 raised his average to .198.

this is from today's newsday in a story about how analytics impacts the Yankees:

https://www.newsday.com/sports/baseball/yankees/yankees-analysis-l0kbmtlb

As has been written repeatedly here on the topic as it relates to the Yankees: This is not anti-analytics or anti-sports and performance science. All teams use those things to varying degrees and any organization in 2023 dismissing them as useless is an organization guilty of dereliction of duty. Not using any and all information available is a recipe for failure.

So is overkill.

One example: Before every trip, the Yankees traveling party receive a “sleep guide,” complete with a suggested “bedtime” and “time to wake up.”

And that kind of smothering from the performance science crowd contributed at least in part to a much-derided decision on the just-completed trip West. The decision: Rather than the usual step of flying home after the conclusion of Wednesday’s game, which started at 4 p.m. Pacific time, they would wait until around noon Thursday (complete with an inconvenient hotel change Wednesday night) to depart.

Sleep guide make all the sense in the world.  Extending another day on the trip probably is a time where the rules need to be tweaked.

I can understand the sleep guide for trips etc but I've never heard any team not flying back from the West Coast on the same day, especially after a late afternoon local time game.

Yeah, that seems to take it too far, agree

Sleep guide, in general, should be pushed on athletes.  (People, in general, but especially people who are athletic.)
Sure some of these folks have great habits, some less so.

Ha, first thing I thought of was imagine trying this on Mickey Mantle or the various Yankees in the 1950s.

Just try to make sure they are sober, from the night before, by game time

the appearance code is ridiculous as well. we’re in the 21st century, you clowns.

tend to agree...but then u have asshats like Kevin Millar, Justin Turner

who the Yankees would have saved from looking like they are on some list they need to notify neighbors about

I've always been a fan of this and that they don't put names on their jerseys.

F Me In The Brain

While I am not a fan of the extreme beards it is pretty funny that they hold to this, still.

Poncier

Appearance code for grown men is absolutely ludicrous. 
Would have been great if Aaron Judge signed with the Giants and said the only reason was he wanted to grow his hair out a bit and have a goatee.
