That throwing error on the ground ball is proof why all outs are not the same. If you strike out there, the inning is over. Put the ball in play and something crazy can happen like an error that scores two runs.

Chisholm didn't do himself any favors pissing and moaning about the strike zone.
It was crap for both teams and he should know on a cold night, the ump was gonna expand the zone.
14 Ks is brutal.
the bats dont help when you don't make contact.
And I am just kidding with you- the offensive start the Yankees have had has very little to do with the bats. I am going to bet that if you take the Yankee stats out of all the new bat stats for all players in the league- there would not be a huge difference.
Nine teams have players using the Torpedo bat including the Mets's Francisco Lindor. This isn't a Yankees thing. It's a baseball thing.
Aaron Judge who is batting .368 with 7 home runs is not one of the players using that bat.
What's odd is he was one of the worst relievers this spring.
The kind of guy that pitches when you're up by 8 runs or down by 8 runs.
I'm pleasantly surprised with 5 inning and 3 runs. Not great but now bad from the inning eater who I had low expectations from
I always said I wanted to see this guy with a full healthy year and we have gotten a few of them now- he is not a generational talent but an all time talent.
If he stays on this path- he is climbing into the Mays/Williams/Ruth realm
Sounds good since the Yanks have such a great track record of developing young players. Over the past 10 years you have Judge and.................well..................um...............you have Judge and...............hmm..............well. Maybe Volpe? But that is a work in progress.
The Yankees are still in first place of two divisions,the AL East and the NL Central.
It's gonna get ugly when they start playing decent teams with the staff as it is currently.
Vlad Guerrero Jr agrees to $500 million, 14 year extension.
Good for him. Great for Toronto keeping one of their own.

Looking at his stats made me look at his Dad's again- his Dad never had a bad year in his entire career.
He could hit a ball a mile if it was down by his feet or as high as his head. It didn't matter.
Modern day Yogi…
The crazy thing is- baseball fans knew him but he was far from a household name. Dude also had a cannon for an arm.
Chisholm is such a jackass on called strikes and I'm sure has earned a reputation with MLB umpires!
Quickly learning to dislike the guy.
Apparently the Tigers are using the Torpedo bat and NYY went back to using the Wiffle bat!
The number of Ks on offense is just mind boggling. Unproductive outs.
Five swinging Ks vs Flaherty in two innings.
If these guys don't hit HRs, they can't score.

Am I the only person not impressed with Devin Williams????
Second time this season he's come into a game in a save situation and thrown 30+ pitches and basically removed any potential to pitch the next day.
Make this joker the 8th inning guy and put Weaver back as closer. Perhaps he can't handle the NYY pressure?
