Wtf, swing the bat or don't play.  Why does he continue to take first pitch fastball down the plate when he's crushed that pitch all year?

Covey is just going to destroy this lineup. Will be surprised if Yankees can get a hit imo

 

Ok, that Wyatt Daniel Smith having webbed toes story is pretty nuts.

9 up 9 down

Stone just mentioned it. The key will be when he goes into the stretch. But so far, so good. It would be nice is Covey became useful in some way.

Might be a “not who you play, but when you play them” situation. 

Come on Yoan, do something here.

Not as he keeps bailing at the plate, causing him to foul off pitches right down the plate. He's been a mess at the plate since ASB.  

I’m going to echo what fathom keep saying, but please move Sanchez down the lineup.

He's just awful offensively right now. Just a waste of at bats.  Love the guy but please don't let him start next season.

I'm probably Yolmer's biggest fan and even I can agree he's a utility guy on a good team. Great soldier who can fill in admirably, but he's not a starter on a good team other than maybe at 2B. 

Well Covey should make a real good reliever. 2nd time thru is just death on him.

ball should have been caught. 

I get the runner at second would get a bigger jump, but you have to have Covey pitch from a wind up as much as possible, 

Covey really should ditch the slider

+infinity. Kopech should be in his spot on Saturday with Santiago DFA.

Long relief next year 

Wtf was that by Anderson. Circus hour is upon us 

I'm not sure Covey makes it out of this inning. 

I do not know what kind of reliever Covey would make. Out of the stretch he has been pretty bad.

Holy cow Engel

WOW ENGEL!

Lordy.
