This team has to be the most frustrating team I have watched in recent history of the Yankees. I feel like I'm on a roller coaster this year and I don't even remember going to the theme park.

How many more games in a row are we going to lose this time?

Fun fact

Joey Gallo in 101 at bats with the Yankees has 15 hits 5 hrs 11 rbis and 50 strikeouts

Is he really a better choice than anybody else on the roster to play the OF?

They are playing like they did earlier in the year, too many double plays.

Yes, b/c of his high OBP and his Gold Glove caliber defense. Would you rather have Andujar or Frazier out there like earlier in the year? It was a complete disaster

Now the pitching that overachieved all year will collapse in September.

Beginning to look that way, smoke and mirrors only work for so long.

He's having a pretty bad season. When you don't have any pop, you need to be hitting at a .350 clip. His avg with RISP is also way down compared to the past 2 years

Agreed I have a feeling his sorry hitting with RISP has cost them more games than we care to know about.

Taillon doesn’t have an out pitch tonight he is getting tagged with 2 strikes on the batters a lot.

Maybe just an off year? But he's become alarmingly slow. Huge problem since his power is down and he's destined for 1B.

Agreed, I didn’t mind the signing when they did it but he is lacking something this year.

Damn it they should’ve pulled him earlier.

Taillon is back to the scrub pitcher he was most of the year smh. The stretch of games that he pitched decent was probably just a fluke

How do you win 13 in a row and then look like garbage for the next 4 games.

Other teams got the scouting report on him and that is all she wrote. Shohei was out.

From the replay it looked like Ohtani was tagged at the same time as his hand touched the plate. Too close to over-turn which is why they probably didn't challenge
