    So frustrating. Pineda straight dealing then 2 outs and no one on and all of a sudden they have 4 runs...

    On the radio they were talking about how the guys in the team were calling Beltran, Hall of Famer. Maybe he'll get in at some point. But I don't see it. Especially not first ballot.

    yea. eventually. I'm just going by the fact he never led the league in hits, hrs, avg, Was never MVP. I know there are players in the Hall who weren't great hitters like Ozzie Smith. And by the time he retires he won't have the sort of automatic in. 3000 hits and 500 hr. I'm thinking some voters might look at him as a compiler. But on his side is he played in the steroid era and so far has played clean.

    I said Eovaldi should be in the pen. Let's see if it works out. He could be a 6 and 7 inning guy every couple of days. I think they might have him pitch the rest of the game. Unless we tie or take the lead.

    That's a first. Umpire checking to see if the batter struck before he made caught stealing out call.

    David Robertson is the fastest to 500 ks for the Yankees. I think Betances will break that

    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.
