We never had an SP depth. Not really sure you can consider some failed older prospects, two guys that came into the year with questions as younger prospects, and half a dozen guys recovering from some form of surgery as depth. We had some smoke and mirrors playing bad offenses in colder, bigger parks with some left stranded luck. Now we're playing better offenses in the June heat in smaller parks. We're bottom 1/4 in FIP and xFIP and are 26th in walk rate. I'm sorta glad that the Yankees are smacking the pitching around just to help people understand we're still pretty far away from being a legit good team. We're no longer bad, we're def mediocre, maybe even solid, but we're not good yet.

don't pull a greg.

Yea, turning this one off. Hope they come back going to a WC watch thing.

Yikes. So much for the positive RD.

What team did we have in the early aughts that couldn't pitch a lick but had a good offense? Getting those vibes.

or not.

Good AB pay it off.

Davis Martin again? I'm aging in reverse!

Our boys got locked up tonight. Tmr is another day.

Colon's probably just a 740 OPS guy that occasionally can carry a team for a weekend when his HR swing is on. I mean as a very good defensive SS that's a 4 WAR player. He's young enough to still improve, it's good he's got a floor with that glove.

You should adjust your expectations for the staff going forward. As many people have been saying.

we are gonna be bottom 1/4 in FIP and xFIP after tonight. Not great bob.

yea he's regressing, sucks.

God damn Gonzo wanted to go for that one too. Someone just fucking tell him that unless it's hit one step to his right in MLB that's the 2B ball or a single into RF.

Martin hasn't been helped by ump or defense but the book is starting to get out, just sit on fastball until 2 strikes.

Young team struggling on the road in a big game. Bummer.

Good lord WTF are you doing Gonzo.

Just awful, wasn't on the bag, didn't even swipe down.

gonna be a lot of HR in this bandbox this series.

get in the fucking box.

Teel homered.

He's thrown 5 in a row whatever the f*** it is. nasty.
