walking the leadoff guy was kind of stupid 

Yordan deciding to use the 9th here to wake up in august would be a welcome development

Yes, as I noted when it happened. But once a guy was on third and you had a hot 2-out lefty hitter facing your shaky reliever, why wouldn't you walk him to get to the righty (whom you struck out)? I really don't get it.

So this is what playing in a decent division with competent teams feels like. We’ve been living fat in a shit division. Gotta score more than 2 or 3 runs. What really hurts is Yankees are sucking and we’re missing great opportunities to put distance between us. Mancini and Vazquez will start tomorrow and we’ll score 7 runs. Que sera sera.

Hopefully Yordan gets through this slump soon.  Glad it is happening now and hopefully doesn't happen in October.

Last 14 days he has played in 12 games.  1 homer and 8 singles I believe.  

.209 avg with a pre all star break machete like .579 OPS (which btw machete has an impressive .246 avg and .746 OPS over the last 28 days)

 

 

Yuli has picked it up over the past 6 games .706 OPS, but if you go back to include the last 14 days he played 10 games and has an .494 OPS

As mentioned already, Pena's OPS over last 24 games is .553 

 

So now Bregman is great and Yordan sucks.  Would be nice for at least  Altuve, Yordan, Bregman, and Tucker to all be locked in at the same time.

Seems to happen every year where one or two of the big guns are up and one or two are down at the same time…and by October they are all (or at least the majority) usually locked in.

The plus side - the Yankees keep losing  and are 2-8 in their last 10, so no harm, no foul

The other plus side - Seattle is still double digit games back because they're only 1 game better than us in their last 10

I feel like the Yankees L10 has been stuck on 2-8 since the all star break.

it’s glorious

Lulz. picked it up. No HRs since July 1st. 2 EBHs and 2 BBs in August. Yuli is done and it's ridiculous that he's getting this many ABs in the 2 hole.
