***The Official New York Yankees Thread***

Why do I have a feeling someone is going to get plunked in tonight's game and there is going to be a brawl?

[fulltritty]

I wish I owned Topps. Today's Judge card for his homerun would read something like, "Judge shuts up Toronto whiners with hone run that destroys National symbol."

Toronto just wants to be relevant so bad. How do you complain about the 3rd base coach not being in the box (which they never are with runners on) and then your own 3rd base coach does the exact same thing.

And who's he calling fat boy?

I used to like the Jays as a team but not with Schneider as their manager, in trying to make a name for himself he is making his team enemy number one. German should’ve known something like checking him was coming based on the last time it happened. I want to know like FT said what exactly is the substance and if it is just a rosin overload perhaps the league needs to use a different substance as I am sure German won’t be the last to fail an in game checkup. Schneider knows the Yankees pitching has a lot of injuries right now so getting German suspended 10 games hurts more than just this one game. I am not worried though as Karma has a funny way of evening things out.

I don't think the Jays's manager had anything to do with German being thrown out. As Cone said on the broadcast, he's on the watchlist due to his last game, and it's the exact same umpire crew that busted him last time. German seems to be an idiot to try to pull it two games in a row, especially with the same umps (reminds of Pineda from a few years ago).

Yes I mentioned that and I figured if he wasn’t thrown out last time he probably figured the amount of rosin or whatever substance he had on him last night was okay, but yes stupid on his part to think nothing would happen. Schneider barking about the third base coach not being in the box was a punk move as no third base coach ever spends the whole game in the box. In trying to get in the Yankees head Schneider might have woken up a sleeping giant. Just adding something why did the umpires let him pitch 3 innings before checking him if they were on watch about it, you would think they would check him before he threw a pitch. I didn’t hear Cone’s take on it as the plan I have had the broadcast on Toronto’s network and I got to listen to Buck Martinez and the other jokers in their booth.

That whole thing was hilarious. Toronto has become the whiners of the AL East. I would say this series, their fans have been classier than their coaching staff and announcers.

Pineda was so obvious. Dude's brown skin was shining so bad you could see it on the broadcast.

German actually pitched 5 games in between the near perfect game he got examined at and today's game. I don't think he' son a special list of scrutiny as I don't remember any of those other 5 games an umpire having an issue with him or checking him more than another pitcher. One of those games was a loss to the Blue Jays.

Here's why I say the umpires and MLB needs to do a better job.

German says he "didn't get a pure explanation at the moment'' of his ejection. He expressed confusion about not getting "a clear direction from them to find out what’s appropriate and what’s too much'' with what he insisted was rosin and sweat and nothing else mixed in.

First base ump DJ Reyburn checked German after the first inning, but not again until German came out to pitch the bottom of the fourth inning, with the Yankees leading 2-0.

The last time, it was a build up of the rosin and sweat and they let him pitch. This time they claimed it wasn't that, but gave no explanation of what it was. I think if you are going to accuse someone of cheating, eject them from the game, and suspend them 2 starts without allowing the team to being up another pitcher, you damn well better provide an explanation of what they were illegally using.

Here's a quote from last nights crew chief James Hoye saying that his hand was the "stickiest I've ever felt," and added it was "definitely not rosin."

It's not their (umpires) first rodeo, they can tell what's rosin and what's not. I don't think they have to identify the exact substance that's being used, as any foreign substance other than rosin is illegal.

Considering how horrible the umpires have been in recent years calling balls and strikes, I think they do or the MLB needs to test the pitcher afterwards to ensure. I've just lost all faith in umpires doing their job properly.

Volpe and Torres laughing at Boone's tirade from the first game.

3 days in a row with a Topps Now Judge card.

[timothypowers6]

I want somebody to call out Torres. Stop always trying to do too damn much. Let the game come to you instead of trying to be something you aren't.

Torres would be a fine player if he stayed in his lane. He made some absolutely awful decisions that could of cost us the game.

Volpe is a kid and he has a better IQ then Gleyber.

It's gonna put you in the poor house if things continue this way.

[SyrNy1960]

NEW YORK (AP) — New York Yankees pitcher Domingo Germán was suspended for 10 games Wednesday by Major League Baseball and fined for violating the sport's prohibition of foreign substances on the mound.

At least I'm saving some money (about $4.50) a card by not buying from Topps anymore and getting them off sellers on E-bay.

[fulltritty]

I pre-ordered the 2023 Topps Heritage Yankees set today too. Now I have to work on picking up the short prints and inserts.

[fulltritty]

Well, that was a crappy start to the game by the offense.

[fulltritty]

Good thing Boone gave Volpe the night off so Cabrera could make an error in the first inning already.

[SyrNy1960]

Freaking errors 🤬🤬🤬

[fulltritty]

2 errors in the first inning. Cole with one of them. He will completely lose it as usual and we'll be down early.

[fulltritty]

I can't believe Cole got out of that instead of his usual folding like jello.

[SyrNy1960]

Pretty rare to see Judge bark at the home plate ump. He was 100% right. It was a freaking ball outside.
