He got the walk, but I wholeheartedly agree! That first pitch is nice sometimes.

He’s also afraid of the sinker. He was a sucker for those for awhile

Hill 1 run 8th 10-2 Yankees going into the 9th. As long as they hold onto this 8 run lead they will move back into the top wildcard spot.

Doval needs to learn the history of Yankees pitchers failing to cover first.

Tonight’s going to be a tougher game than the first two. Shane Smith pitching good for the White Sox.

Judge puts them ahead with a homer that he didn’t even get all of 1-0

I know it’s only the White Sox but the Yankees could’ve lost this one very easily. Earlier in the year it would’ve been a loss. Now don’t take tomorrow’s game for granted 8 in a row would be nice.

Easily Cam Schlittler. Dude throws harder and is more accurate. Warren still walks too many batters and doesn't see to have a put away pitch that is consistent.

Boone being an idiot again and puts Williams in up one run and he does what he does best.

Only 2 back of the Jays now. Have to win tonight for the sweep of the two crap teams and then at least take 2 from the Astros and split Toronto this weekend.

Judge hits 42nd homer, Bellinger breaks tie in 11th as Yankees top White Sox for 7th straight win

Tell me how it makes any sense putting Callabaro instead of Dominguez in left field?

Boone and his lineup makers screwed this one up. Can’t play your B lineup and expect to just show up and win.

I'll ask in here since you guys would probably know the most about it

Why do you think that ARod's prices have stayed relatively low as a 3 time MVP, 3000+ hits and basically 700 HRs player compared to a guy like Barry Bonds whose cards have risen recently? Do you think it's comparable to Albert Pujols where maybe just not enough time has passed to appreciate the accomplishment of the player and in a few years Pujols/ARod will rise the same way Barry Bonds has recently?

I really didn’t notice Bonds had risen. I think anybody associated with ped’s will not see any rise in card prices until the hall of fame relents and actually puts them in. I would say Pete Rose has as good a chance of getting in the hall as any ped’s user.

Plus, Arod is one of those players people like or hate. Mostly hate.

The MVP will be in his pocket if he goes on one of his runs.

But he's just as likely to go into a month long slump.

People hate ARod. He's obnoxious, and a cheater. Actually a lying cheater in a pink sweater. Warring words with Jeter didn't help him either.

He also didn't perform in the postseason till 2009. Acted like a prima donna compared to Jeter. Post career I really like Arod and think he would make a great manager. Meanwhile Jeter has become the prima donna.

Yeah it's definitely about even now. Jeter should just play with his kids in his mansion that takes up half of Tampa.

I also remember the Yankees didn't even plan anything for him hitting #600.
