WIN METHOD

WIN METHOD --- 2018 SEASON --- PRODUCING WHEN IT COUNTS

It is here WIN METHOD fans.  Tomorrow we start the 2018 baseball season.  We start with high hopes, high pie in the sky hopes.  The goal is winning the division, making the playoffs and advancing from there as far as wins and winning can take us.

This season we appear to have improved the roster in all areas.  Adding Stanton, Walker, Drury, etc. will surely make this team better.  Having Robertson, Kahnle, and Gray for the entire season should also improve the team.  The only injury of consequence is Greg Birds bone spur, the surgery he just underwent, and him being out for about two months.  As usual we will play the hand we are dealt and overcome all roadblocks and obstacles.

We have several players at AAA Scranton chomping at the bit while blooming and growing that will be heard from and make their presence felt this season.  You know their names, Torres, Andujar, German, and others.   This 2018 Yankee team is deep, has gained confidence and experience, and has backups close at hand.

As I started to write this post I noticed a post by Cory.  I thought his post was very insightful and  positive and I didn't want it to get bypassed because of being posted in a past blog, so I am  reposting it right here now.  Thank you for your post Cory.
----- I will be doing the ten game sets and posting them here as I did last season.
Here is the sets from last season.
10. 6-4
20. 7-3 = 13-7
30. 8-2 = 21-9
40. 3-7 = 24-16
50. 6-4 = 30-20
60. 7-3 = 37-23
70. 2-8 = 39-31
80. 4-6 = 43-37
90. 4-6 = 47-43
100. 7-3 = 54-46
110. 5-5 = 59-51
120. 6-4 = 65-55
130. 5-5 = 70-60
140. 5-5 = 75-65
150. 8-2 = 83-67
160. 7-3 = 90-70
Note the sets from games 61-90. We were 10-20. That is awful baseball. Still finished 91-71. With everything else staying the same if that 30 game skid could be bettered this season to just 15-15 that would mean this season could wind up 96-66. If we improve the three 5-5 sets from last season by one game that would take this season to 99-63. And if we raise the 3-7 set to 4-6 that could take this season to 100 wins.
It will be up to the players on the field producing when it matters most, but it is surely possible.-----


It is not only Cory with great posts, it is all of your posts, every single one of you from all over the world who post your comments and views here.  And all of the readers of the WIN METHOD blog from all over the world, even if you do not post.  We have surpassed 320 million views and are getting bigger and bigger every day.  Yes, we still get some stat frauds, but they are good for us and also and serve a purpose.  The stat frauds give us a guidepost and remind us of just how meaningless and useless their individual stats are.  There is no doubt to anyone here who is a WIN METHOD fan that only wins can take a team to the playoffs.  Only wins and winning as always, do now, and always will in the future, determine the best players and teams.  THANK YOU ALL WIN METHOD FANS.

Now it is just about that time where we all stand up and cheer our team for the 2018 season!

LETS GO YANKEES

jimbo said...

0-0 after six. German comes out after six allowing 0 runs, 0 hits, 2 walks, 9 K's. Betances in for the 7th.

Tony Manchu said...

What a great effort from German. And he looked so cool, calm, and collected. Another WIN METHOD gem.

Nick Polito said...

The good today. German six inning no hit start.

The bad today. Judge flailing at and trying to pull outside pitches instead of trying to drive them to right field. His batting average is falling like a rock.

NJYANKEE said...

No score after seven. Betances with a 1,2,3 seventh. Indians still with no hits. Would hate to lose this game.

yankeedoodledandy said...

After a good 7th inning Betances back to his garbage in the 8th giving up 3 consecutive singles to the first 3 hitters and is pulled. One run in, two men on, and no outs.

AAA said...

Yanks down 4-3 after 8.

Wilsonsway said...

After Yankees give up 4 runs in top of 8th they come back with 3 in the bottom half.

Hal Jenks said...

Torres with a three run walk off HR for 7-4 win.

will-i-am said...

Final, another unbelievable win. 7-4 as Yankees come from behind 4-0. Torres walk off 3 run home run wins it. Sweep of Indians.

Raul Vasquez said...

Swwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeppppp. Yanks sweep another series with 7-4 come from behind win.

coryankee said...

The Yankees continue to find ways to win. Another walk off win. This one on Torres HR. A truly magical season.

Deb F said...

You just gotta love the Yankee never give up attitude. I do feel sorry for German today after his brilliant six innings. And I feel sorry for Betances after his continued failures.

sid greenberg,nyc said...

In this series the Yankees had two starters CC and German that each pitched six innings of shutout ball and neither got a win. Most important, the team won.

Eddie OConnor said...

Beautiful job by German. He has three pitches, uses them all, and throws them for strikes. He may have a long career in from of him.

bigbadwolf said...

After 18 straight games finally a day off and then we host the first place sux for three games. Our rotation is Louie Louie, Tanaka, and CC. Lets win another series.

But first, enjoy the day off everyone. Well deserved.

White Knight said...

Off day fans. Chill and enjoy. Tomorrow we host the sux. Yes we can and yes we will.

Jack Bauer said...

Continue to move forward and win the sux series.

sid greenberg,nyc said...

Torres at 21 is already better than Cano was during his career. Torres is a brilliant defender with abilities that rival the best infielder since 1995 in Derek Jeter.

muchomachoman said...

Lets give the sux a washing.

NJYANKEE said...

As a fan, I do appreciate a day off also. But I'll be ready tomorrow.

Hal Jenks said...

Some of our injured are on the mend and we will see if and when they get to play for the Yankees again.

Victor Grandozi said...

We face a left tomorrow and Wednesday. Plays nicely into our power laden right handed lineup.

Jerry Curcio said...

With the off day yesterday all of our starters will pitch with an extra day off this week. Give us another gem Louie Louie.

Yanks23245 said...

As usual let's start the series with a win and move forward from there.

Harry Stavris said...

The bullpen is rested and we will soon get Kahnle and Warren back. That will make the bullpen even better, since both were throwing with injury discomfort.

Guy Padikian said...

Adam Egan said...

Go with the pitch guy. If he pitches you outside don't try to pull the pitch. Control the strike zone and make him throw strikes, then pound the ball. Lets go Yankees.

Erica Johnston said...

Keep playing WIN METHOD baseball. Produce when it counts. Everyone contributes.

Jeff Miller said...

Score early and control the game. Lets go Yankees/

candycane said...

1-0 Yankees after 2 on Stanton HR.

Stan the Man said...

Stanton second HR of game gives Yankees 2-0 lead after four.

Rahm Mahoud said...

Now 2-1 Yanks thru 5. Come on guys, score some runs.

will-i-am said...

sux tie it in 7th at 2. Yanks load bases with 1 out and Judge singles in run but Torres out at plate for 2nd out. Didi grounds out. Yankees just can't put the hammer down. Lead 3-2 after 7.

Stan the Man said...

Yanks up 3-2 thru 7.

Mark Wagoner said...

Yankees have second runner of game thrown out at home plate in 8th inning. Lead 3-2 and Chapman coming in for the save try.

NJYANKEE said...

Another nail biter, but another win. 3-2.

will-i-am said...

Final, Yanks win 3-2.

jimbo said...

Chapman gets the save. Yanks win another.

Izy Hernandez said...

Yanks take first game of the sux series 3-2.

okiened said...

Tanaka's turn tomorrow night. We need to score some runs.

Doug Shoen said...

We are winning several games by the skin of our teeth, but they are still wins, and wins are all that matters. Over the past couple of weeks we have defeated the best teams in baseball.

Xavier Young said...

We face Porcello tonight. Price is undergoing medical tests since he his pitching so poorly. Lets go Yankees.

Gene A said...

We can win the sux series tonight. Lets go Yankees.

YankeeMike said...

Porcello hasn't pitched a bad game in 7 starts thise is season and is 5-0. Maybe he is due for a bad game where we can beat him.

Steve said...

This is great and so telling. The following is from a stat fraud on a Yankee forum that abounds in not very intelligent baseball fans.

"""""""""""There is not one player on the Yankee team who is hot offensively, maybe other than Torres. Tonight Stanton was fantastic. But he is hitting .237. Judge got a big hit. But he has been trending down for weeks. Gardner horrible. Hicks not much better but at least he gets a big hit every once in a while. Sanchez not hitting. Andujar slumping after a great start. Austin hasn't gotten a hit since coming back from his suspension. Gregorius not hitting. AND THE TEAM IS WINNING!!!!"""""""""""

The team is winning because it doesn't matter how much or how many a play attains but it does matter WHEN a player attains {produces} to help his team win games. What fools these stat frauds be. Frauds, step into the light and real world, get out from the darkness and fantasy world, join the WIN METHOD.

Monte Willis said...

If Tanaka is on his game, a couple of crooked numbers on the scoreboard may be all we need. We won yesterday with none.

Guy Padikian said...

Wednesday 5/9 7:05pm
Masahiro Tanaka (R)
vs. Red Sox - Rick Porcello (R)
1. Brett Gardner (L) LF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Didi Gregorius (L) SS
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Gary Sanchez (R) C
6. Aaron Hicks (S) CF
7. Neil Walker (S) 1B
8. Miguel Andujar (R) 3B
9. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
What a luvaly lineup. Lets go Yankees.

Deb F said...

Steve, You nailed another stat fraud. They make fools of themselves and put on display their utter ignorance over and over.

Mike Smith said...

Maybe we can produce when it counts early in tonights game. Get a lead and put all the pressure on the sux. Lets go Yankees.

Raul Vasquez said...

Louie Louie gives me the impression he will be a major pitching force for a long time. He has so smooth and easy. No violent movement, nothing herky jerky. Throws strikes and attacks batters. He appears to have everything you want to see in a pitcher. Look at so many other top pitchers, even Kershaw, Price, and so many others having physical issues.

yankeeclipper said...

Steve, you, I, and so many other posters here have been run out of the forums for showing intelligence, insight, and wisdom regarding Yankee players and baseball, and baseball in general. Every once in awhile a poster or two types something intelligent and worthwhile, but they are few and far in between.

Andrew J said...

Lets go Tanaka, lets go Yankees.

Monte Willis said...

It wasn't a crooked number, but the Yanks score 1 in the first for a 1-0 lead.

candycane said...

Yanks down 2-1 after 2.

Stanley Chin said...

Tanaka struggling with 67 pitches through three innings. Hope he can get through two more.

Monte Willis said...

There's a crooked number. Yankees producing well when it counts so far tonight. Put up a e spot in the 3rd for a 4-2 lead.

yankeelover said...

Boone pushing the envelope as Tanaka comes out for the sixth with Yanks leading 5-3.

Norm Jackson said...

Tanaka starts 6th with allowing a double, and gives up a run and is replaced by Green. Yanks lead 5-4 mid 6th. It's going to be a bullpen game now.

Stan the Man said...

Green gives up 2 run HR, Yanks down 6-5 mid 7th.

Monte Willis said...

Yankees put up a very nice crooked number in 8th scoring 4 runs and taking a 9-6 lead after 8.
The Yankees tonight pounded a 5-0 pitcher and then the sux bullpen.

jimbo said...

Gardner 2 run triple followed by Judge 2 run HR put Yankees in front 9-6 after 8. Chapman coming in to close it out.

Wilsonsway said...

Don't forget the producing when it counts of Shreve and particularly Holder prevent the sux from scoring in the 8th with men on 2nd and 3rd and no outs.

coryankee said...

Tonights win was the Yankees 10th come from behind win this season.

will-i-am said...

Final, Yankees win 9-6. Chance for series sweep tomorrow.

Walt Belamy said...

One heck of a ride this Yankee team and the Yankee fans are on.

Pierre Jadot said...

CC starts tomorrow and can help the Yankees sweep the sux.

Jen Vitter said...

CC starts today. Brooms are in hand and ready to do their job. If CC earns the win he will be the only Yankee starter to earn a win this series.

Saul Irving said...

Keep moving forward guys. You have been playing fantastic baseball. Keep winning.

Pete H said...

Maybe last night portends the bats are getting hot.

HerecomestheJudge said...

The combination of just enough pitching and just enough hitting is a winning combination that is very elusive, but when it is there, just ride the wave, smile and be happy.

Guy Padikian said...

Thursday 5/10 7:05pm
CC Sabathia (L)
vs. Red Sox - Eduardo Rodriguez (L)
1. Brett Gardner (L) CF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Didi Gregorius (L) SS

6. Tyler Austin (R) 1B
7. Miguel Andujar (R) DH
8. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
9. Ronald Torreyes (R) 3B
Torreyes at 3B, Andujar DH. Sweep!

Tom Loughlin said...

Lets earn another win. Go Yankees.

johnny said...

May the force of the Evil Empire be with you CC and the Yankee bats.

Domenic said...

CC struggling like Tanaka did last night. Has given up 3 runs and sux still batting in 3rd.

Phil Jenkins said...

Yankees down 3-0 after 4. Yanks load bases with one out and Austin stinks up the joint as he strikes out with the pitcher never throwing a ball over the plate.

candycane said...

Yanks down 2-0 after 4.

Cal Fuerst said...

Rain delay in 5th inning.

muchomachoman said...

Just about an hour delay. Holder in for Yankees and gets 1,2,3 in the 5th. sux keep their starter in after the delay and Yankees go down 1,2,3. Yanks trail 4-0.

jimbo said...

Yankees score 4 in 7th to tie game. Then mental defective Betances comes in for the 8th and give up HR to first batter.

Harry Stavris said...

Yanks threaten but fail to score in 8th. Down 5-4 thru 8.

will-i-am said...

Final, Yanks lose 5-4.

Cory said...

The Yankee have lost 11 games this season and Betances has been largely responsible for 4 of them.

yankeedoodledandy said...

You can't and won't win them all. But we will win enough to go to the playoffs.

Adam Egan said...

Just have to forget last nights dreadful loss to the despised sux and the continued poor pitching of Betances.

Tonight we host the Oakland A's and our unlucky bloom and grow youngster Dustin Fowler. Yankee pitching lineup will be Gray, German, and Louie Louie. Lets take another series. Wins are the goal, nothing else matters.

Swen Jorgenson said...

Even in losses we are playing decent baseball and we don't make the oppositions wins easy for them. In the long haul this will be good for the Yankees and will make the team better and that much harder to beat.

Linda Pardo said...

Gray faces his old team tonight. Give us a winning effort Gray.

Guy Padikian said...

Friday 5/11 7:05pm
Sonny Gray (R)
vs. Athletics - Kendall Graveman (R)
1. Brett Gardner (L) LF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Didi Gregorius (L) SS
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Aaron Hicks (S) CF
6. Neil Walker (S) 1B
7. Miguel Andujar (R) 3B
8. Austin Romine (R) C
9. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
Romine catching, Sanchez out. Win this series opener.

Victor Grandozi said...

Hit 'em where they ain't. An old baseball expression. Lets go Yankees.

Warren Hammond said...

Don't get complacent guys. Don't take teams for granted. Play WIN METHOD baseball.

Jimmy Thames said...

I really like when Romine starts a game. It gives Sanchez extra R&R, we get solid defense behind the plate, and a hitter that will take the ball where it is pitched pretty consistently.

Sal Mineo said...

Sonny Gray far to often known as Grayskies gives up two very long HRs and a double in the 2nd putting the Yankees in the hole 3-0.

candycane said...

Yanks down 3-0 after 2.

Tony Manchu said...

Gray has Yankees down 5-1 after four. Gray looks like he is throwing batting practice.

Yanks23245 said...

Judge 3 run HR in 5th gets Yankees back in the game. Down 5-4 after 5. Grayskies out of game gives Yankees a better chance now.

Stan the Man said...

Yanks down 6-5 after 7, but Didi fails to get runner in from 3rd with less than 2 outs.

Nathan Riley said...

Robertson in for the 9th and has nothing allowing 3 runs for a 10-5 A's lead.

will-i-am said...

Final, second straight loss, 10-5. Not good, pitching horrendous starting immediately with Gray.

Sean Smith said...

We had a big chance to turn game around in 7th but failed big time when it mattered.

Jill Byrnes said...

Hope these last two games are a wakeup call.

Oscar Hron said...

Lets get even with German tomorrow. Yes we can.

okiened said...

Didi is in one heck of a slump. Killing a lot of rallies this past week.

Lori Kelly said...

Come on guys, don't let your progress slip slide away. Win today and this series and move forward.

Guy Padikian said...

Saturday 5/12 1:05pm
Domingo German (R)
vs. Athletics - Andrew Triggs (R)
1. Brett Gardner (L) LF
2. Aaron Judge (R) DH
3. Didi Gregorius (L) SS

5. Gary Sanchez (R) C
6. Aaron Hicks (S) CF
7. Neil Walker (S) 1B
8. Miguel Andujar (R) 3B
9. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
Show no mercy guys. Wins are all that matters.

Mark Wagoner said...

Lets go Yankees. We are done losing for this week.

Zack Norris said...

2-0 Yankee through two innings.

NJYANKEE said...

The wheels fall off German's wagon as he gets hammered and gives up five runs in the fourth.

Lou Moscowitz said...

Yankees score 4 in 5th and after 5 tie game 6-6.

candycane said...

6-6 after 6.

Carl Hooks said...

6-6 after 8. The bad, the Yankees have left runners in scoring position in the 6th, 7th, and 8th and have failed to produce when it mattered most.

jimbo said...

Yankees and Chapman get out of bases loaded no out jam in ninth as Gardner throws runner out at home.

Stan the Man said...

Extra innings 6-6.

bigbadwolf said...

Walker RBI single in 11th wins it for Yankees 7-6.

will-i-am said...

Final, Yankees win 7-6 in 11th on walk off single by Walker.

Lloyd Fuller said...

Louie Louie starts for Yanks tomorrow to try to win this series.

Dan Reynolds said...

How about a relatively easy win today guys.

Teena/Bronx said...

Rain headed into the NYC area. May affect game this afternoon to some degree.

Guy Padikian said...

Sunday 5/13 1:05pm
Luis Severino (R)
vs. Athletics - Brett Anderson (L)
1. Brett Gardner (L) LF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Didi Gregorius (L) SS
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Gary Sanchez (R) C
6. Aaron Hicks (S) CF
7. Tyler Austin (R) 1B
8. Miguel Andujar (R) 3B
9. Ronald Torreyes (R) 2B
Only change Austin at 1B for Walker. And rain does look like it may delay start of game.

johnsondc said...

The start of today's game is indeed in a rain delay.

Yanks23245 said...

Guy Padikian....Torreyes is at second base for Torres.

Gil McKenzie said...

Game is starting after @ 2 hour 45 minute delay. Lets go Yankees.

yankeelover said...

So far worth the wait. 3-0 Yankees thru one.

Oscar Hron said...

3-0 Yankees after 3.

Giambino said...

Yanks lead 4-1 after 5. Louie Louie has been working hard throwing 90 pitches in only five innings.

will-i-am said...

Final, 6-2 win and another series in the bag.

Cory said...

1-10 5-5
11-20 6-4 = 11-9
21-30 9-1 = 20-10
31-40 8-2 = 28-12

A second consecutive great ten game set. On track for a 100 win season as WIN METHOD pointed out in his fantastic blog post.

Alex Antonius said...

Off day tomorrow than an 8 game road trip. Two in Washington, three in Kansas City, and three in Texas with the Rangers.

Zhaire said...

Stanton had a very good game today. Louie Louie was a bit off, but still six innings and only one run allowed. Not to shabby when you are off your top game.

sid greenberg,nyc said...

Almost all of our injured are on the mend and it looks as if all will be fully recovered by the end of the month.

Craig Winstead said...

MLB in its infinite wisdom has scheduled two days off for the Yankees this week. Yet it has no problem scheduling 18 straight games a month earlier. Stay sharp guys. Wins are all that matter.

Victor Bruno said...

Tanaka and CC on tap for the National two game series.

Guy Padikian said...

28-12 is very impressive baseball. Keeping away from big losing spells will go a long way in making the playoffs.

Victor Grandozi said...

Two games with the Nats and then another day off. Whatever, just win games, win series and keep moving forward.

Patricia Piper said...

It's an odd feeling. When your team is winning and going good an off day seems like an eternity.

Eddie OConnor said...

O' Father eternal.

Deb F said...

With no game today and re-reading through this blog, there have been no stat frauds for quite a while now. Haven't heard from stat fraud Steven and his inane comments.

Yankeeforever said...

Deb F, Steven is a rabble rouser. He likes to twist peoples opinions and looks at things only through his eyes. Also, do you remember the fraud Nancy?

Hobbs said...

Yankees open a two game series tonight against the Nationals in Washington DC. Tanaka is starting for the good guys and the team with the best W/L record in baseball. WINS are the only stat that counts and the only stat that determines the best teams and players.

Augie Defonce said...

We lost game one of the A's series this past weekend and came back to win the series. Lets try to take game one tonight of this two game series and then try for the series tomorrow.

Boston/Yankee said...

Always good to win the first game of any series.

Cory said...

The Yankees have called up Clint Frazier. Either one of our outfielders is going on the DL or it is only for the two game series with the Nats and the inferior league designated hitter foolishness.

Dave Mathews said...

No DH in the inferior league makes for inferior baseball product which is what is played by nl teams.

Evan Donahue said...

Ex-Yankee Cano nailed for drug violation. To receive significant suspension.

Fred Slube said...

No one placed on DL today. Frazier here probably to just be an extra bench piece because of the DH rule in the lesser nl.

Guy Padikian said...

Tuesday 5/15 7:05pm
Masahiro Tanaka (R)
@ Nationals - Gio Gonzalez (L)
1. Aaron Hicks (S) CF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Giancarlo Stanton (R) LF
4. Gary Sanchez (R) C
5. Didi Gregorius (L) SS
6. Tyler Austin (R) 1B
7. Miguel Andujar (R) 3B
8. Masahiro Tanaka (R) P
9. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
Tanaka batting 8th. Frazier on bench. Didi only left bat in lineup.

HerecomestheJudge said...

Guys, think. If you get pitched outside ro to right. You get pitched inside, pull it. Lets go Yankees.

Izy Hernandez said...

If Tanaka gives us a good game we have a good chance to win tonight. Also, it looks like rain may play a part tonight as storms look as if they are moving towards DC.

Walt Belamy said...

Yanks leave men on 2nd and 3rd in first inning.

Tony Manchu said...

2nd and 3rd no outs, Yankees leave them stranded. Not a good start to the night.

yankeeclipper said...

Tanaka getting hit hard and has Yankees down 3-0 after two.

candycane said...

Yanks down 3-2 after 4.

Stan the Man said...

Rain delay mid sixth. 3-3 game.

will-i-am said...

Game is suspended and to be continued tomorrow before regularly scheduled game.

Gus Papa said...

After allowing 3 runs in the first 2 innings Tanaka came back with 3 shutout innings and left after five with a no decision keeping his team in the game.

Donald Blazina said...

We will see how much baseball the Yanks and Nats get to play today. There is various amounts of rain for hundreds of miles in all directions surrounding DC.

The suspended game is scheduled for 5PM.

Diane Stahl said...

If our well rested bullpen can give us four shutout innings in the suspended game today we have a very good chance of winning.

Steve said...

All we can do is play and deal with the hand we are dealt. Lets win and keep moving forward and leave the whining, crying, and sniveling to the other guys.

muchomachoman said...

Rain wise today, what will be will be. I wouldn't mind playing these games at a later date and maybe missing Scherzer. But that's just me.

Nathan Riley said...

If the games are played today, we can let everything hang out since we have another off day tomorrow.

Cory said...

The resumption of last nights suspended game and tonights regularly scheduled game have been canceled. The games have been rescheduled for June 18th at 5:00PM.

YankeeMike said...

So from Monday thru tomorrow we will have played 5 1/2 innings of baseball in four days.

Warren Hammond said...

With all the off days I wonder if Boone will, or is he even thinking about tinkering with the starting rotation. With a .700 winning percentage there may not be any reason to make any kind of a change. Leave well enough alone?

Sharon/NC said...

Through it all this week the Yankees gained two games in the lost column on the sux and a possible third tonight. Sweeeeet.

Benny Pake said...

On to Kansas City and a three game weekend series after an off day tomorrow.

Xavier Young said...

CC listed to start Fridays game in KC.

Dakarai Folami said...

Ho hum, another day without a Yankee game.

Phil Jenkins said...

Boone is skipping German for the weekend. CC tomorrow, Louie Louie Saturday, and Grayskies Sunday.

okiened said...

Hope the team gets to dine on some of those great Kansas City steaks while there this weekend.

yankeedoodledandy said...

okiened, the steaks are fine, as long as the team remembers the season has just started and goal here in KC is to win the series.

Dennis Trovato said...

Lets go Yankees. Just had to say it.

Monte Willis said...

We do have a game scheduled for tonight. It's been a long time. Lets get a win.

Aceman said...

Take control CC. Earn the win.

Ivan Noriokos said...

Game one in the win column tonight, yes we can, lets go Yankees.

Tommy Lee said...

Lets come back to playing baseball strong and win this series.

This appears to be Boones go to lineup against a right handed pitcher.

Would really like to win tonight's game. Keep winning and moving forward. No game for four days was a downer.

Gus Papa said...

Lets go Yankees, you all know the drill, score early, CC pitch a solid game, then put up some add-on runs for a win.

Only wins and winning determine the best players and teams. If you want to be the best you have to win. To win you have to produce when it counts, offensively and defensively.

Yanks down 1-0 after 2.

Stan the Man said...

Yankees trail 3-0 after 4 as defense has failed and given up all runs.

NJYANKEE said...

CC completes five innings and leaves trailing 4-0. Time to rally.

jimbo said...

Yanks down 5-2 thru 7 as Robertson can't put up a shutout inning. Two more chances.

Walt Belamy said...

Yanks go down in 8th and 9th unceremoniously. Lose 5-2. Looked lackluster.

will-i-am said...

Final, Yanks lose 5-2. Now need to win the next two to take this series.

Yankeefan2 said...

It sure looks like not playing does take you down a notch.

Hobbs said...

Tonight's game was an outstanding example of losing because you failed to produce offensively and defensively when it mattered while the other team took advantage of your failures to win the game. Games like this you must keep to a minimum or you will be doomed.

Roger Brown said...

Louie Louie starts tonight as Yankees try to even series. Everytime you lose the first game of a series you are in a hole. Stay out of holes.

johnsondc said...

Yes we lost last night and did not expect to. I don't think any team should expect to lose.

This brings me to this WIN METHOD tenet. Every team plays 162 games.
Each season each team will win 35 games and each team will lose 35 games no matter how good or how bad the team is. The difference lies in the other 92 games and those games will determine where each team finishes their season.

Maybe it is just me, but I see too many guys swinging for the fences in too many at bats.

Ted Lilly said...

Louie Louie to get us even tonight. Lets go guys, lets get back to winning.

Jack Bauer said...

okiened, I noticed the ad sign behind home plate during last nights game advertising Kansas City steaks.

Erica Johnston said...

Frazier likely to get a start today from what Cone and Flaherty were saying last night.

White Knight said...

How telling is it about Frazier that he didn't get into an outfield position?

johnny said...

Lets go Yankees.

Wilsonsway said...

Yankees take 1-0 lead thru two.

Sal Mineo said...

Yanks23245 said...

Final. Yankees win 8-3.

Jill Byrnes said...

Yanks with late inning add on runs rout Royals 8-3. Green, Betances, and Chapman shutout innings in 7th 8th and 9th.

Jill Byrnes said...
