    I know each pitcher has their designated catcher but I wish Maldanado could get more playing time. His bat has been way better.

    First 2-2 pitch to Yordan should have been deposited somewhere in the vicinity of the Moon.

    He's totally lost, front side flying open on every breaking ball he sees from a lefty.

    Short rest @ Rays, but he took the ball.

    He didn't pitch @ Bronx in '17.

    He wasn't his usual self Game 6 in Hollywood.

    Again, hilarious, we’re down by 3 and no mention that we have a long way to go and the Astros can score runs

    How does the broadcasters - A-Rod, Joe, John, etc - talk with the Yankees cawk in the mouth?

    "Yankees have to keep it simple as possible."
    "If they [Yankees] can get the bottom of their order going..."
    "Give the Yankees credit, they did what they needed to do in the first inning."
    "When we look back, it was that play by the Yankees in that inning."
    "Yankees have to do this."
    "Yankees have to do that."

    Astros are down 4-1. What do they have to do Coach Smoltz? (@Rock Block )

    We've gotten to every one of their pitchers at this point, the booth should mention that.

    What was that George? Seriously. Just try to get a ball in play for goodness sakes. Those are the type of swings you take with the lead.
