These announcers make Manning & Underwood seem like Harwell & Scully

Smoltz is great! Probably the best analyst in baseball.

Thought that was high to Kip but too close to take.

Urshela to the bench, J-Ram to 3rd, bring Kip back in to play 2nd and Austin Jackson in center for Game 5....at least that's what I'd do. J-Ram has been slumping but I'll take my chances with his stick over Urshela's.

Sucks man. I honestly think they are the best team in baseball, and so complete/deep. Yankees had all the makings to knock them out though, more than any other team (as I expressed before series began) and we got stuck with them.
I'm just hoping there isn't something physically wrong with Kluber. He was due for a bad outing but that was VERY bad.

I just REALLY don't want to be this year's version of the Golden State Warriors.

as our resident cameraman said, Kluber can't be as bad as he was Friday, and CC can't be as good...GO TRIBE!

We need to do something to pump up a struggling offense (which actually has been in a bit of a funk since the final regular season series against the ChiSox.
Gio is not quite ready for prime time....and this is prime time. He is only in the lineup for one reason....and he failed miserably last nite especially.
With CC on the hill for the Bronx Bombers, we are really missing EE. If he can't go tomorrow, look for them to bring somebody up....Yandy Diaz please.
The lineup is really lefty heavy. Ajax will be in the lineup no doubt.

We are missing EE, for sure. MB is my guy through and through but I think we were all kind of surprised when he made the postseason roster and now instead of pinch hitting...he's been thrust into a middle of the order type role.

It's start with Lindor at the top. We need to get him going and get him on base.

Also- kinda of scary. This thing is 2-2 and the rookie of the year and potential MVP is 1-15 with 12 strikeouts. So Yankee fans are the saying the same thing about him as we are about Frankie and Jose. "We got this fucka to 2-2 and Judge hasn't done jack, yo." (Yankee fan impression)

I will say this...I don't think there is anyone in the world right now that I would rather have on the hill for us than Corey Kluber tomorrow. The toughest part is that we have to wait 35 more damn hours.

0-5 in the last 5 close out games. Disaster.

If we replace EE, he won't be available until the WS. Can't replace an injured player in the current or next series.
