WIN METHOD - MID SEASON 2022

 Greetings WIN METHOD baseball fans and those of you trying to save America from being destroyed by the people presently running/ruining America right now.  Eight months is a long time between blog posts, but once this season got rolling, I didn't want to upset the applecart.  

The 2022 season, what can I say?  So far so good.  This team seems to be on a mission and their goal is the World Series.   The mid-point of the season seemed to be a good time to chime in.  Having a thirteen-game lead on your closest competitor is a pretty good place to be in.  

The YANKEE minor league teams have a great amount of up-and-coming talent developing through the system and should make for a consistent playoff team for many years to come.  The loser fans who are not happy with making the playoffs consistently have issues to deal with in their thought process.  Since the onset of the WIN METHOD, the YANKEES have been the winningest team in all of baseball and have never had a losing season.  Unfortunately, no team can win the big prize all the time, and no team can even play for the big prize all the time, however, no team comes close to playing for and winning the World Series more than the YANKEES.  

Here is a bit of information all WIN METHOD YANKEE fans should love hearing, here it is, Aaron Judge will finish his career in a New York YANKEE uniform.

Now, as the YANKEES continue through this season, it appears apparent to most YANKEE fans, the YANKEES need to do some tinkering with player personnel to upgrade the team in certain positions.  Let me tell you, YANKEE management is well aware of these concerns and are addressing them.  I cannot divulge who, how, where, when, and what will be done, because it is an ongoing process with many variables that must be considered and accounted for.  Please remember fans, the YANKEES management makes the final decisions after hearing all input from many sources.  Then after all is concluded, it always comes down to the performance of the players on the field when it matters and counts most.  No individual stat of any player is more important than the team winning.  Wins and winning are in the final analysis the determining factor in the best players and teams are every season.

The YANKEES have been playing .700 baseball so far this season and that is outstanding.  Just playing .600 baseball for the rest of the season will carry them to the playoffs.  

WIN METHOD fans, you all know when this blog started, how it has grown, and number of views that it has received over the past fourteen years.  It is the number one YANKEE baseball blog, forum, site, message board in the world.  WIN METHOD fans, you did that.  Many of you have come from other sites that have either failed or folded, are struggling with minimal views, or are still in operation, but are of poor quality where posters are not really allowed to speak freely.  You WIN METHOD fans have this blog on track to reach one billion four hundred million views this year.  THANK YOU ALL, THE GREATEST AND MOST INTELLIGENT BASEBALL FANS ON EARTH.

Abreu in relief of Cortes in 7th gives up 2 run HR and Yankees trail 4-3 after 7.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees lose 4-3. Abreu gets the loss. Yankees lose another series. Off day tomorrow and then a three game series in Boston.

Kenny Sheperd said...

It's hard to believe the Yankees are 10 games in front in their division. How did they get there? With wins of course.

Oscar Hron said...

The FBI and Justice Department must be dismantled and shut down. What they are doing is a disgrace a crime against the people.

Tom Wilson said...

The FBI worked with big tech to HUSH Hunter Biden story.

FBI seizes Rep. Scott Perry’s personal cell phone one day After Mar-A-Lago raid.

DOJ accused of double standard on Trump/Clinton.

The FBI is the same agency that protected Hillary Clinton, James Comey, and continues to lie to protect Hunter Biden...there must be an immediate investigation and accountability into Joe Biden and his Administration’s weaponizing this department against their political opponents – the likely 2024 Republican candidate for President of the United States.

Dag Traweck said...

Republicans better do something, people are sick and tired of political abuse by Communist Demokrats! The US Constitution must be protected at all costs!!!

Ned Green said...

Slowly but surely the Yankees creep to the finish line of the 162 game season.

Gil McKenzie said...

Ned Green. You win one race at a time. The goal of the first race is to advance to the post season. The second race to win one series race at a time. The difference here is there is not 162 games, just five or seven. You really have to be ready to win each series, because as soon as you lose one your season and your races are over.

Manny Carbrera said...

A BIG thank you to the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration's FBI for raiding Trump’s home! You guys just poured 81 million gallons of premium Patriot octane on an already blazing Freedom fire! See, you are good for something after all. Much appreciated! See you in November. VOTE CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN.

Grosner said...

Corrupt Christopher Wray needs to be arrested and tried for TREASON asap as well as whoever picked him to run the FBI--that person should be arrested NOW.

Geronimo Wyatt said...

What happened to the 30 million pages of documents taken from the White House to Chicago by Barack Hussein Obama? He refused to give them back! What is going on? This act was strongly at odds with NARA. Will they be breaking into Obama’s 'mansion' in Martha’s Vineyard? Or are there different rules for the liberal democrats and conservative republicans. There is no excuse or anything anyone can say to support the difference in actions between the event and the non event.

George W said...

Garland just made a live statement regarding the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago home of President Trump. Garland said he personally approved the raid. Other then that he said absolutely nothing. Post statement consensus is, "we learned a lot of nothing".

Victor Bruno said...

Garland approved the search warrant. Other than that, we learned essentially nothing from Garland's short comments. Typical.

Phil Jenkins said...

Yankee starters for weekend series in Boston. German, Montas, Taillon.

Andrew J said...

My questions for Merrick Garland after his four minute statement.

1. Why were you forty minutes late to read a four minute statement?

2. Why did you wait three days to make a four minute statement?

3. You stated that you personally gave approval for the raid on a presidential candidate in 2024. Why did you not recluse yourself since you were appointed by the candidate who has repeatedly stated he is running for a second term in 2024?

Barry West said...

There is an awful lot of corruption goin' on in the DC swamp, the FBI, the Justice Department, and the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration. You will need countless cleaners to drain the swamp.

Jamaica Joe said...

Would be nice, and come at a good time to win the sux series this weekend.

Veerayut Maneechote said...

The sick demented (TDS) liberal democrats have tried to crucify President Trump since he announced he was running for president in 2015. They have made up fairy tale stories, the lie about everything he does, they demean or lie about all the great things he has accomplished for America and the American people. They took America's energy independence and destroyed it on day one of their taking charge 1/20/21. They have passed trillion dollar legislation with half the money going for their made up climate change hoax that they created 60 years ago and proclaimed the end of the world multiple times...we are still here and they are still stealing our tax dollars, living in multiple multi million dollar estates. They support human trafficking, drug cartels, murderous gangs, allow terrorists to freely enter our country, are dealing with China at the cost of the American people. Criminals are allowed out of jail free, and the police across America are defunded. They support the brainwashing of our school children of every age. I guess you get my point. Hopefully you all know what to do to stop the travesty that is occurring before our eyes.

Earl Lennon said...

Please watch Garland four minute meaningless talk from today. Please note, he took NO questions. Hey it works for the demented Biden. Unlike Trump who took hours of questions from the media who was out to get him and when they couldn't, they made and make up lies. Trump could answer questions because he had nothing to hide. Why doesn't demented Biden stand up in front of the media for an hour and take question, preferably questions that aren't fed to the fake media? Same for corrupt radical left winger Garland.

Wilsonsway said...

Cortes and Cole miss the sux. Benintendi visits Boston as a Yankee. Jeer's or cheer's?

Grosner said...

I’m telling you right now; if this Trump guy keeps stealing nuclear secrets and instigating domestic coups I may not vote for him again.

MAGA 2022 said...

TRUMP: “Not only will I not oppose the release of documents related to the unAmerican, unwarranted, and unnecessary raid and break-in of my home in Palm Beach, Florida, Mar-a-Lago, I am going a step further by ENCOURAGING the immediate release of those documents.”

Domenic said...

Regarding the hiring of 87,000 IRS agents armed and ready to kill, has it occurred to anyone that what the corrupt anti-American joe-bama/commie MALADY administration is doing is just a guise to arm a military force to 'take out' American citizens using the pretext of taxes! This would be totally in line with how the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration, democrats, liberals, progressives, communists, blm, antifa, operate. You know the equally corrupt media will say nothing and will even aid them in their goal to destroy America.

Saul Irving said...

Grosner, Trump did not steal nuclear secrets and he did not instigate a domestic coup. As always, you can vote for anyone you wish.

Jackson DeWitt-Iowa said...

Domenic, BINGO! I think we have a winner. Your post is likely far more accurate in defining exactly what the scum running our country right now is doing and trying to achieve. I might add that the people who the IRS armed militia goons will go after are conservative republicans.

MRGA said...

I'm a Conservative Republican, but I'd rather not have our nuclear secrets given to Putin.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-44852812

Jill Byrnes said...

Attorney General Garland set a fire with Trump raid and is clueless about how to put it out.

Carl Hooks said...

MRGA, you are an idiot. The article you posted is four years old and I agree I do not want our nuclear secrets given to Putin or anyone else. To make my point clear, if Trump wanted to give Putin nuclear secrets (which I do not believe he would ever do) he would have done it already. I might add, any conservative republican would never have to announce their political affiliation when posting, readers would know by the content of their words.

Two keys. 1.German, does he give us a chance. 2.Lineup, if given the chance do they produce enough when it matters most.

Marilyn Zerberini said...

What a shame this administration is. They hate the greatest president in the history of our country because he did so much to help America and the American people. He burst the bubble of the DC swamp wheeling, dealing, corruption, pay for play, and payola politicians. The politicians live like kings and queens living the high life and their constituents live pay check to pay check scrimping every money for fuel, groceries, medicine, rent. For seven years they have made up stories about him, lied about him, accused him of crimes he never committed and more. All the while, the pieces of garbage have done all the things they have falsely accused Trump of. The corruption just gets bigger and bigger and never stops.

RLA said...

Carl Hooks, I like your response to MRGA. Your last sentence " any conservative republican would never have to announce their political affiliation when posting, readers would know by the content of their words." Just like we can tell the democrat liberal, lie after lie while they tell you how great you are doing as they bankrupt you.

Giuseppe Betto said...

Let's win tonight's game. Play WIN METHOD baseball, everyone contributes.

johnny said...

Lets go Yankees.

Ricky Itchy said...

Torres again, the ultimate fail when it matters most. First and third with one out and he grounds into a double play. When Torres plays he should never be hitting higher the 8th or 9th, and preferably not even in the lineup. Sanchez dumped last off season, Torres needs to go this off season. His failure to score the runner from third over and over is pathetic.

Yankeeforever said...

Hey there stat frauds, I see another one of your heroes, Fernando Tatis Jr was suspended for 80 days for using performance enhancing drugs. Cheating is big with stat frauds.

candycane said...

Yanks up 1-0 after 2.

yankeeclipper said...

Yankees still failing to produce when it counts, but lead 2-1 thru five.

Eddie OConnor said...

German goes six strong innings and leaves with a 2-1 lead. Bullpen game now, and it would be nice if the lineup scored some runs.

YankeeMike said...

Holmes fails again. Gives up tying run in 9th and leaves with men on first and third and one out. Peralta comes in and gets out of the inning. 2-2 after nine and extra innings again.

Paul Hirschman said...

Yankees fail to score in tenth. That is the seventh extra inning in a row that the Yankees have failed to score the ghost runner from second base. The Yankees are 1-10 went it matters most in this game. Trivino coming in for the tenth. Yankees lose 3-2.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees lose 3-2 in ten innings. German went six innings allowing 1 run. Effross pitched a 1,2,3 seventh inning. Chapman pitched a 1,2,3 eighth inning. Holmes blew the save in the ninth inning and was saved from taking the loss when Peralta came in to get the last two outs with runners on first and third. Trivino lost it in the tenth. It it hard to believe the streak of misery the Yankees are playing in. The failure lies totally on the lineup who failed 9 of 10 times when it mattered most. The most horrendous culprit being Torres and needs not to be playing when the Yankees have a minor leaguer in Peraza who hits and fields better than Torres. Damn him LET HIM PLAY.

Woody/Atlanta said...

I waited for the game to end to post this. We know how corrupt the DOJ and FBI are. Throw into that pile of corruption AG Merrick Garland and ask yourself why Hunter Biden's residence hasn't been searched, why his laptop hasn't been made public, and with all the evidence and proof in the world of him and his crime family led by the 'big guy' aka Brandon has not been charged with anything. There are pictures, documents, eye witnesses, and all is swept under the rug while DOJ, FBI, and AG Garland try to go after Trump, who has done nothing. For seven years Trump has been investigated on fake and made up charges. tried to be impeached twice for fake and made up charges and now his home has been broken into by the most corrupt agencies in America. Time is getting shorter.

Yankeefan2 said...

I find it hard to believe and quite amazing that at the end of play today the Yankees are in first place by ten games. Throw in that the team playing the best baseball in the AL East since July 1st is the Baltimore Orioles.

Vinny Ferrero said...

How many losses like today's can one team play through.

FloridaYankee said...

If the Yanks want to win this series, they have work to do, will have to win the last two games of series. A lot of good Yankee pitching going to waste.

Hobbs said...

Torres needs a kick in the behind and a down to earth talking to by Boone. A talk something like Girardi got fired for when Meatball Sanchez went crying to the front office that Girardi hurt his feeling. But Boone wasn't brought here to ride anyone hard. He's here to stroke the ego of the "modern player," give nurturing hugs when they screw up, cover for them with the press, say nothing but nice things about players who make glaring blunders and be a "modern manager".

Augie Defonce said...

I can see Manfred making it a rule in MLB that batter hit by a pitcher has to do this.

Pitcher Kaiden Shelton, of Pearland, Texas, was facing batter Isaiah Jarvis of Tulsa, Oklahoma, when he lost control of the ball and hit Jarvis in the head at the Little League Southwest Regional Playoff final. Jarvis fell to the ground and held his head as coaches rushed to check on him.

Moments later, Jarvis was cleared and walked to first base. However, Shelton was still shaken up and began to cry.

Seeing the distraught pitcher, Jarvis walked toward the mound and hugged Shelton. He told him, "Hey, you're doing great. Let's go."

Come on Manfred. Let's go.

Xavier Young said...

TRUMP has been targeted by the deep state since he announced he was running for president in 2015. After TRUMP won the 2016 election and became PRESIDENT TRUMP and proceeded to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN, he was double down targeted by the terrifying and deadly destroy America democrat liberal deep state. The law is only for anyone or any organization who opposes the corrupt and foul deep state, while the deep state is absolved from every criminal and deadly act known to man.

Bobby Behan said...

Montas starts for the Yankees tonight. Hope it is a lot lot better than his first start.

Evan Donahue said...

Can only hope Montas really shows us something tonight. Prefer that something is a lot and good.

Zhaire said...

The Yankees got 8 innings of great pitching from their starter and 2 relievers. Their closer cracked. It all would have been moot if the lineup got just a couple of hits with runners in scoring position and led maybe 4 or 5 to 1. TEAM not individual.

Yanks23245 said...

Yankees trail 2-0 thru four.

Stache Colinski said...

Kiner-Falefa two run home run in fifth ties game at two after five innings.

yankeedoodledandy said...

As the old 1970's song goes 'here we go again'. Score ties 2-2 and Yankees only have three hits. One big one, a 2 run HR by IKF.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees win 3-2. Kiner-Falefa wins it knocking in all 3 Yankees runs with a 2 run home run and the game winning rbi single in the 9th. IKF also made a great play in the bottom of the 9th on a throw in the dirt for a force out at second base. Montas went five good innings allowing both sux runs. Bullpen with four scoreless innings. Luetge 1 inning. Trevino 2/3 inning. Chapman 1 1/3 innings and the win. Effross 1 inning for the save. A very much needed win.

jimbo said...

Yankees win 3-2. Very silently IKF has been very big when it matters most with @ .330 batting average with runners in scoring position, second only to Judge. Yanks have been losing too many close games recently and winning one again helps.

Tommy Lee said...

Rubber game tomorrow. Taillon starts. Sunday night game. Haven't won a series in a long time.

Rajiv Maragh said...

The Mar-a-Lago raid confirms the failure of the January 6th fake hearing. They tried to get Trump for that, and all they produced was lies and second-hand gossip. Now it’s on to fantastic tales about nuclear codes and the Espionage Act. Pathetic! Predictable! And even to a point, entertaining!

Diane Stahl said...

It's hard to understand why officials in NY or DC or any corrupt democrat liberal run cities feel overwhelmed by the relatively few illegal border crossers bussed there. The millions of people who support illegal immigration could easily absorb these people into their homes and families. Just because some of the illegal border crossers may be murderers, drug dealers, pedophiles, rapists, robbers, etc, and any combination of same....so what, they are your kind of people.

muchomachoman said...

I was watching the Indians/Blue Jays game yesterday afternoon on the Blue Jay broadcast and the announcers stated that every Indian player runs full out on every ball hit and that is instilled in them by the manager. The is some nice comment coming from the opposing team. I wish we could say that about the Yankees.

bigbadwolf said...

Kiner-Falefa breathed some air into the Yankees last night. A night like that can sometimes wake up teammates. A home run to tie the game and a bunt single to win the game topped off with a defensive play to save the game. Can you say WIN METHOD.

Yanks trail 1-0 after four innings and do not have a hit.

candycane said...

Yanks down 3-0 after 6.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees lose 3-0. The offense just two hits, both singles. Taillon went six giving up the 3 runs and looked good. Got no support tonight at all. Lose yet another series but maintain ten game lead in AL East.

yankeedoodledandy said...

The Yankees looked pretty bad tonight. Maybe awful is a better word.

Jeff Miller said...

Politics corrupts the justice system and corrupt politicians like the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration destroy countries. That is where America is at now. We have the most corrupt and evil political administration in our nations history in power and they are doing every thing they can to destroy you and America.

Yankeefan2 said...

OK, we are back home. Three game series with Tampa. Cole, Cortes, and German starting. We have to start winning series again and this would be a great series to do that. Is the wake up call bell ringing? Time to bury the electric car garbage and step on the gas pedal.

Steve(winstheonlystat} said...

Here is a post from an imbecile at the nyyfanforum posted today.

""The Yankees had a 118-win pace in April-June. They have a 68-win pace in July-August. Maybe it's not historic, but it's a pretty big collapse.""

How can it be even considered a collapse when the Yankees are in first place and ten games in front? The quote is stat fraud speak for utter ignorance and no understanding of winning baseball.

yankeeclipper said...

Steve(winstheonlystat), what you stated is not allowed at the nyyforum. You would be banned for you post. They cannot accept the truth, so they ban anyone who disagrees with their process. I was banned from there also. The main point being, you are right. Horse race comparison is very telling. A horse enters the stretch run to the finish line with a 12 length lead and wins by neck. You bet on him and collect you winnings. Do you think the horse collapsed and or is it historic. Idiots over there.

Banned, me too.

LeMahieu out (toe). Can the bats rise from the dead.

Saul Irving said...

Cole, Cortes, German each's last start was plus plus. Can all three do it again!

Yanks23245 said...

Hicks horribly misplays fly ball and turns it into a triple and allowing Rays to score first run of game. Yankees down 1-0 coming to bat in fourth inning.

Yanks23245 said...

The coup de gras, Hicks comes up in the bottom of the fourth with the bases loaded and grounds into a double play. Pathetic. Going back to his first at bat in the second inning, Hicks made the third out with a runners on first the second. So that was his first fail of the game, the fly ball was a really big fail costing a run, and his third fail was dreadful hitting into a double play with bases loaded. Yanks down 1-0 after four innings all because of Hicks failures.

candycane said...

Yanks down 1-0 after 6.

will-i-am said...

final. Yankees lose 4-0. Cole takes the loss on a misplay by Hicks. Yankee offense non-existent. Even Judge hit into two double plays. Score was only 1-0 until Yankee bullpen, Peralta and Trivino gave up 3 ninth inning runs. What is really weird is the Yankees in their last 12 games are 2-10, yet they maintain a 10 game division lead.

Tom Loughlin said...

That was the advantage of opening up a huge lead during the race, it likely made the other AL East teams all feel like they were playing for second place and wild card spots. But the race ain't over yet.

LetsgoMets said...

The Yankees are not even worth watching right now. They are a bad baseball team with a terrible GM.

Augie Defonce said...

If Billy Martin was managing the Yankees now, what is happening with the Yankees right now would never have happened. Also, taking this game as a snapshot, when Hicks comes into the clubhouse tomorrow, his locker is cleaned out and there is only a not taped to it, reading, ________________________________. I'll let each reader fill in the blank. If I finished my post wouldn't be posted because of foul language.

bigbadwolf said...

LetsgoMets, If I am not mistaken the Yankees have the best win-loss record in baseball history, haven't had a losing season in 30 years, and have won 5 World Series Championships, since the last time the Mets won one. Please post more often, maybe you will learn something.

Quigley said...

Maybe the Yankees are saving their runs for the post season. Remember, it's producing when it matters most that determines the best players and teams.

YankeeMike said...

Cortes gets his turn tomorrow. Won't make a bit of difference if the Yankees do not score runs.

Fritz Bremmer said...

Donald Trump is the biggest threat that the ruling class has ever faced and now they're coming after him to get to you. The joe-bama/commie MALADY administration goal is to destroy America and you. We must stop them and vote everyone of them out of office.

Mario/Staten Island said...

Trump demands release of unredacted DOJ affidavit for raid on his home. DOJ does not want the affidavit released. Trump for transparency and honesty. DOJ for hiding behind their lies and corruption. Drain the swamp and clean house from the ground up.

Yanks23245 said...

Benitendi triple in fifth followed by ground out gets Yankees a run. Down 3-1 thru six.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees lose 3-1. Yankees have scored one run in last three games. The Yankees have now lost their fifth series in a row. Last time they lost five series in a row was 2005. Cortes gave up a three run HR in first inning and that was the game. Cortes did go seven innings and that one pitch in the first innings was all she wrote. Abreu went the final two innings, six up six down. Benintendi triple in fifth made for only Yankee run scoring on a ground out.

Yankee division lead is no longer double digits. Need a win tomorrow.

German tomorrow. Watching Yankees trying to hit right now is down right hurting my eyes.

FloridaYankee said...

We win today, division lead goes back to 10 games, we lose it drops to 8 games.

Nick Polito said...

Looks as if Clay Holmes will be placed on the DL with a back issue. Another road block to overcome.

Reed Harris said...

We need to start to win games right now, or we may not win the division. Something needs to be done. I would bring up Peraza and Cabrera and start them every day immediately. Also Marinaccio to the bullpen. How long before it is to late?

Guy Padikian said...

Todays Yankee Lineup

Domingo German (R) P

1. Andrew Benintendi (L) LF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
4. Anthony Rizzo (L) 1B
5. Josh Donaldson (R) DH
6. Oswaldo Cabrera (S) 3B
7. Jose Trevino (R) C
8. Estevan Florial (L) CF
9. Isiah Kiner-Falefa (R) SS

New Life. Now think of this lineup with Stanton at DH, LeMahieu at 2B. The lineup could be,

1. DJ LeMahieu 2B
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Anthony Rizzo (L) 1B
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Anthony Benintedi (L) LF
6. Oswaldo Cabrera (S) 3B
7. Jose Trevino (R) C
8. Estevan Florial (L) CF
9. Isiah Kiner-Falefa (R) SS

A. Torres needs to hit to contact, hit the ball where it is pitched and stop trying to hit home runs. If he hits to contact the home runs will come.
B. Pay Donaldson to coach next year and get off the roster.
C. Peraza starts at 2B next year, Torres either trade or utility infielder.

YankeeMike said...

Cabrera is only 23 years old and has played 1098 innings at second base, 1159 innings at third base, and 559 innings at shortstop in the minors over his rise to AAA. Hope he excels immediately and makes it hard for Boone to take him out of the lineup. Add Peraza the second base to start next season, and Volpe as soon as he is ready at shortstop next season and you will have the youngest infield in MLB not counting first base.

Yanks down 1-0 after 4.

Zack Norris said...

Torres 2 run homer in 6th cuts Rays lead in half. Yankees down 4-2.

Stan the Man said...

Rizzo solo HR in 8th ties game at 4-4.

AAA said...

Extra innings tied at 4.

yankeeclipper said...

Chapman being Chapman. Loads the bases in the 10th and then gives up a base clearing double putting the Yankees down 7-4. It looks like all those games getting ready for a big spot, didn't get him ready for a big spot.

yankeeclipper said...

Donaldson grand slam, Donaldson grand slam, the Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnn. 8-7.

Hal Jenks said...

How about it. Judge ghost runner on 2nd. Torres single, 1st and 3rd, Rizzo walk bases loaded. Donaldson grand slam to win game 8-7. Amazing.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees win 8-7. Donaldson game winning walk-off home run in 10th wins it. Chapman who gave up 3 runs in the top of the 10th gets the win. Yankees were down 4-0 and scored 2 in the 6th and 1 in the 7th and 8th to tie game. Then down 7-4 in the 10th, score 4 to win it. This game may be the worm turning.

Jill Byrnes said...

Crazy win tonight. 8-7 walk off win in tenth inning. Needed that.

Benny Pake said...

Tonight's win was bigger than you think. If Yanks had lost their division lead would have been down to 8 games. The win puts them back up by 10 games and hopefully the karma will start a roll of wins.

RLA said...

Sweet win.

Yankeefan2 said...

See what happens when you bring up some youngsters from the minors and let them play.

Wilsonsway said...

Maybe this win will set the tone four the long weekend four game series with the Blue Jays.

Laura Koehler said...

2 runs in 32 innings followed by 8 runs in 4 plus innings. You never know which way the wind will blow. What will happen next.

John Hartnett said...

Four games in the Bronx hosting the Toronto Blue Jays. Montas, Taillon, Cole, and Cortes. Lets go Yankees.

Stanley Chin said...

Chapman came in with the ghost on second base and one out. He walked the first two batters he faced to load the bases. Nine pitches and eight missed the plate. He put himself in a big hole all by himself. Struck out the next batter for the second out when he started getting the ball in the strike zone. His first two pitches to the next batter were both strikes and his third pitch was low and away which the batter made contact with just hard enough to get it by Rizzo at first base and down the line for three rbi's. It was a good pitch, but the batter did what he needed to do and put the ball in play. But the Yanks came back and saved the day with a single, a walk, and a home run for the win. They did what they needed to and it was enough to win the game. WINS are all that matters.

Gus Papa said...

It never ceases to amaze me how a professional pitcher who can throw 95+ mph fast balls cannot throw strikes so many times in a row. Pitching is their job, their career, throw the ball in the box. Make the batter swing.

Donald Blazina said...

Senator Chuck Grassley has provided specific and credible allegations based on numerous whistleblowers that have approached my office with information that one can only conclude is indicative of a deeply rooted political infection that has spread to investigative activity into former President Trump and allowed silence into Hunter Biden.

jimbo said...

Gus Papa, pitchers are trying to make hitters swing and miss. They are being taught that...to make a pitch look like it may be a strike but not be a strike. Supposedly, when pitchers throw strikes that is when they get hit hard.

Phil Esposito said...

Cabrera and Florial both need to be in the lineup tonight. Florial did make that shoestring catch last night that quite possibly no other Yankee would have, including Judge. Cabrera has a nice swing and even though 0-4, I believe has promise.

Montas gives up a five spot in second.

yankeeforever said...

Yankees down 6-2 thru five.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees lose 9-2. Montas ineffective and struggling. Yankee offense missing in action, again. Only bright spot was rookie Cabrera with two hard hit base hits, a single and a double.

candycane said...

Yanks down 1-0 after 3.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees lose 4-0. Yes, shutout again. AL East lead down to 8 games. Taillon gives up 3 runs for the loss. No offense. Still waiting for the wakeup call. The game a couple of days ago turned out to be a false alarm.

Arnies Army said...

Another loss. No fire in team. If it wasn't for the gigantic lead the Yanks built up, they would be in big trouble right now.

Cory said...

Ten game set log 2022 Season

Set one----- 01 - 10--- 5-5-- 05-05..Not good. Playing .500 ball means no playoffs.
Set two----- 11 - 20--- 9-1-- 14-06..As good as it gets, almost perfect.
Set three--- 21 - 30--- 8-2-- 22-08..Another great ten game set. So far so good.
Set four---- 31 - 40--- 7-3-- 29-11..Not as good as the last two sets, but still good.
Set five---- 41 - 50--- 6-4-- 35-15..Very good set considering team injuries.
Set six----- 51 - 60--- 9-1-- 44-16..Another dominant set. Very strong.
Set seven--- 61 - 70--- 8-2-- 52-18..Yes, another great ten game set. The beat goes on.
Set eight--- 71 - 80--- 6-4-- 58-22..A good series. Half way home and 14 game lead.
Set nine---- 81 - 90--- 4-6-- 62-28..Due to happen, a losing set. Still 12 game lead.
Set ten----- 91 -100--- 5-5-- 67-33..Just holding our own maintaining a double digit lead.
Set eleven--100 -110--- 4-6-- 71-39..Another losing set. Still maintain a double digit lead.
Set twelve--111 -120--- 2-8-- 73-47..This set was a disaster and cut Yankee lead to 8 games.

Turning for home, still with a sizable lead, but do the Yanks have enough in the tank to hold the lead? That is what the 162 game race is all about. It is not over until they hit the finish line.

okiened said...

Cole starts tomorrow. Can he stop the bleeding. It won't make any difference if the Yankees do not score runs.

Lori Kelly said...

Cory, I love your ten game sets updates and your comments within them. You tell the story and paint a picture at the same time. Thanks.

Kojak said...

The Yankees have four more 10 game sets left to play plus 2 games. Sets like this last one could really throw a wrench into the works.

NJYANKEE said...

Think positive. Yankees have their two best pitchers starting today and tomorrow. Win both games and the Blue Jays have just played for games with the team they are trying to catch and gained no ground but took four games off the schedule. It can happen if the Yankees bats come alive and produce when it matters most.

Guy Padikian said...

Todays Yankee Lineup

Gerrit Cole (R) P

1. DJ LeMahieu (R) DH
2. Andrew Benintendi (L) LF
3. Aaron Judge (R) CF

6. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
7. Oswaldo Cabrera (S) RF
8. Jose Trevino (R) C
9. Isiah Kiner-Falefa (R) SS

Benintendi between DJ and Judge. How about if you take Torres out, move Cabrera to 2B, move Judge to RF and put Florial in CF.

jimbo said...

One win at a time. One today and one tomorrow and everyone is back where they started four days ago.

RLA said...

Cabrera with another great defensive play today. This one at third base, a foul ball running full speed hitting tarp and hitting his face at the top of wall.

candycane said...

Yanks up 1-0 after 3.

Benny Pake said...

Yankees down 4-1 thru six. Cole one really bad winning. Bats, nothing when it matters.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees lose 5-2. Cole gives up 4 runs over six innings. Many hits, not many when it mattered most.

Doug Parker said...

That is now six consecutive series Yankees have lost. First time since 1995. Cortes tomorrow to try to save a sweep.

Diane Stahl said...

Do the Yankees have another win in them????

Guy Padikian said...

6. Oswaldo Cabrera (S) SS
7. Aaron Hicks (S) CF
8. Jose Trevino (R) C
9. Marwin Gonzalez (S) RF

It is what it is. If Cortes and bullpen throw a shutout we could win.

muchomachoman said...

Can't wait for Monty to start again. Three straight wins and only game up one run. But not with the Yankees.

BIGTIMEYANKEE said...

Yankees struggling but Cortes has kept them in game. Lead 2-1 after six innings.

Frank Sergi said...

After Loaisiga and Peralta allow Toronto to tie game in seventh, Benintendi two run home run gives Yankees 4-2 lead after seven innings.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees win 4-2. Trivino goes final 2 1/3 innings getting the last out in the 7th with the bases loaded and pitching shutout 8th and 9th innings. He should get a hold and a save also. Benintendi 2 run HR in 7th the game winning hit. Win prevented a four game sweep and was a breath of fresh air for the team and fans.

yankeeclipper said...

A much needed win. Can we beat the Mets in a two game series next up.

The greatest threat to our democracy is not Trump voters or parents protesting at school board meetings, but the permanent Washington elite which has weaponized the govt and teamed up with corporate media to intimidate and silence those who dare to disagree with them.

German gets the start tonight.

coryankee said...

U.S. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart on Monday formally rejected the DOJ’s request to keep the Mar-a-Lago raid affidavit sealed, calling the act ‘unprecedented.’

“The Justice Department’s argument to keep the entire affidavit that led to the search warrant for the FBI’s “unprecedented” raid of former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home under seal, given the “intense public and historical interest.”

Reinhart, in a filing Monday morning, said he rejects “the Government’s argument that the present record justifies keeping the entire Affidavit under seal.”

Reinhart said he has given the Justice Department an “opportunity to propose redactions if I declined to seal the entire Affidavit,” something he granted last week, giving the government a deadline of Thursday, Aug. 25 at noon.

Time to wipe the corruption at the Justice Department and all those liberal democrats and rhino republicans who are responsible for the corruption, lying, the destruction of the average American citizen.

Effross to the DL with shoulder tightness, Schmidt called up to replace him.

risil said...

For what it's worth, Yankees score first and lead 1-0 after first inning.

candycane said...

Yanks up 2-0 after 4.

YankeeMike said...

After German gives up 2 run HR in top of 7th cutting Yankee lead to 3-2, Yankees come back in the bottom of 7th scoring 1 run and knocking Scherzer out of game. Lead 4-2 after 7. Yankees have produced when it mattered most several times so far this game. Will it be enough.

KevMac said...

Theeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnn. 4-2. German wins outpitching Scherzer.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees win. Yes, the Yankees win. Knock out Scherzer in the seventh. German earns the win going 6 1/3 and giving up the 2 runs. Bullpen, Marinaccio and Loaisiga both go 1 1/3 shutout innings for the hold and the save. When it mattered most production from LeMahieu with a sac fly. Benintendi with two RBI base hits. Judge solo home run for the 4 Yankee runs.

Tom Wilson said...

That was a big win. Likely an unexpected win by many fans.

Deb F said...

As always, winning games usually comes down to producing when it counts. Tonight the Yankees beat in of the best teams in baseball and one of the very best pitchers in baseball. Producing when it matters most carries the day and defines the best players and best teams in baseball every season.

Ricky Dawkins said...

Let's do it again tomorrow.

Pierre Jadot said...

Montas tonight to try to win and sweep this series.

okiened said...

Montas has had a chance now to get back into form. This would be a great game to show the fans what he has and can do.

Vince/Brooklyn said...

Montas a long way to go to match what Monty has done for the Cardinals in four starts, all wins and allowing just one run in 27 innings.

Frank Harris said...

I like Cabrera's swing. He is still very young. Needs more plate discipline. He has been right on most pitches and is just a hair off barreling them. Attitude, enthusiasm, and hustle have been outstanding. Torres could learn something from him, but I fear Torres may not care.

candycane said...

Yanks up 2-0 after 4.

Yanks23245 said...

Torres mental screw up gives up tying run in sixth. 2-2 mid sixth.

Stan the Man said...

Seventh inning two outs two men on, Benintendi rbi single, Judge rbi single. Yanks up 4-2 thru seven.

Gus Papa said...

IKF has ben playing some sparkling defense recently. Started a couple of great when it mattered most double plays tonight.

will-i-am said...

Final. Yankees win 4-2. Montas goes 5 2/3 allowing the only Met runs of the game and leaves with the game tied at 2. Schmidt goes 3 innings of shutout ball but leave in the 9th with the bases loaded and 2 out. Peralta comes in and gets final out. Schmidt gets the win and Peralta gets the save. Yankees score on Judge HR, Cabrera rbi walk, Benintendi rbi single, and Judge rbi single. Yanks win a series after losing six straight. Off day tomorrow and travel the left coast.

YankeeMike said...

Yanks win 4-2 in another thrilling game down to the last out. Again, the Mets failed to produce when it mattered most and lost. The Yankees did produce when it mattered most and won.
Playoff game atmosphere last two nights to a sold out packed Yankee Stadium.

KevMac said...

Theeeeeeeeeeeee Yankeeeeeeeeeeeees Winnnnnnnnnnnnn.

Billy Tedder said...

Off tomorrow. Then on Thursday four game long weekend series in Oakland. Let's take another series and get back on track.

Carlos Pepe said...

We just beat a top playoff team twice and one of the top five pitchers in MLB to boot. Just don't lose focus, get healthy, keep playing Cabrera, and win.

HerecomestheJudge said...

The Yankees haven't named any starters for the four game series with the A's in Oakland as of now. Likely is some order, Taillon, Cole, Cortes, German.

YankeeMike said...

This is what Hoyle posted a week ago............""" Hoyle said...
From what I have heard the goal as of now for Stanton is to make Yankee western road trip and to start in Oakland during the Aug 25th series. August 16, 2022 at 1:51 PM"""

That is why this blog is number one in the world. Yankee's have just announced Stanton will rejoin team in Oakland on Thursday the 25th. More intelligent, knowledgeable, common sense posters here on any one page than in all the other baseball sites combined.

Randy Holt said...

The A's will start two ex Yankees in the four game series. Kaprielian and Sears.

RLA said...

Winning 3 of 4 would likely mean sustaining the lead we have and taking 4 games off the season and bring the finish line that much closer.

Mickey Littlebear said...

I didn't see a comment about this unless I missed it, Cabrera playing right field threw out a Met runner trying to score on a base hit. Another solid defensive play by the kid.

Cory said...

Britton pitched for the first time tonight since his surgery last season. Pitched in class 'A' game with Yankee's Tampa team. Face two batters throwing 15 pitches, 10 for strikes, got a ground out and a strike out. Baby steps.

Jen Vitter said...

What are the Yankees trying to figure out with rotation. Still no pitchers listed for the entire series as of now.

Iceman said...

HerecometheJudge, you nailed it. Yankee rotation now listed is Taillon, Cole, Cortes, and German. Continuing for the Angel series, Montas, Taillon, Cole. Then, Cortes, German, Montas.

BIGTIMEYANKEE said...

The Yankees will place left-hander Nestor Cortes on the 15-day injured list prior to tomorrow’s game. Cortes is suffering from a groin injury. The Yankees will promote AAA right-handed reliever Greg Weissert to his first stint in MLB.

That drops Cortes from the rotation and the likely fill in may be Clarke Schmidt who threw three innings in relief against the Mets Tuesday. That should allow Schmidt to start Saturdays game in Oakland.

It has been suggested than Cortes has no injury and is just being rested.

WIN METHOD said...

In horse racing it's called saving some horse for the next race. Your horse has a big lead and the jockey eases him up a bit coming to the finish line. Done a lot in racing. Likely the YANKEES are trying to get ready for the next race, the playoffs. Doesn't mean the horse or the YANKEES will win, the theory behind idea is to give the horse, YANKEES a better chance to win.

Yanks23245 said...

Welcome WIN METHOD. Never know when you will chime in. Got to save something for the end. Whoever produces the most when it matters most will win. Nothing else matters.

Every once in a great while, a horse is eased a bit to much and he loses. However, that is Avery rare event. Nothing worse than losing a race that you should have won. And I don't mean a stat fraud 'on paper' win.
