The game is on ESPN so just brace yourselves. I think they got rid of that chick with her worthless softball knowledge who they used to have in the booth. So there's that, at least. |

I just don't watch enough ESPN broadcasts to have feelings either way. I just know the story will be about Sanchez, Judge, and Torres tonight. (And Verlander because he is such a big name.)

Our offense has mostly had pretty good success against Tanaka. Let's hope that holds true.

Our offense has mostly had pretty good success against Tanaka. Let's hope that holds true. Despite how Japanese players are generally overrated, Tanaka is one of those actually good ones (when healthy). |

It would sure be nice to see White break out the power. He's gotten some hits but we need him to start driving the ball.

Looking for a big game out of Bregman tonight..... Correa too, provided he takes the bat off his shoulder on pitches thrown right down the middle of the plate.

They've had a recent history of playing the better teams hard. Competition ramps up, so does their mojo. Hope that holds true the next 3 nights.

White is 6 for 9 in his career against the Yanks. He's due for a big game.

The first two inning JV is dialed in, big difference for the last start.
