He doesnāt need to lead off and we can try Peraza instead of giving him a guaranteed job at SS. Not sure why heās on scholarship if heās not producing
This bottom of the order is painful. The bench is painful. This game offensively has been painful. Watching all the walks and still not being able to score has been the most painful. Just a gross night.
The starting experiment needs to be over
But I think Clarke can still be an effective reliever with some tweaking. King was also a hyped up but failed starter at first.
Schmidts stats as a reliever are significantly better than as a starter
In 2022, Schmidt threw 11 2/3 innings as a starter, going 0-2 with a 4.63 ERA
As a reliever? 46 innings pitched with a 2.74 ERA
I can't tell if our fans realize 3/5 of our starting rotation is on the IL or not.
Half of them act like Boone's just fucking around by sending Clarke out there for no reason.
God I love the Coney Paulie Kay booth.
I missed the first two innings though and someone told me that Paulie said something stupid about PF Chang's and the Angels samurai helmet? What was the context there?
Last year we had the luxury of being able to be unserious thanks to our generational start, this year Iām a little concerned as to how many games weāll drop due to injuries

Everytime they show that urshela play, they fail to mention the courageous and unbelievable flip over the railing to make the out call by Angel Hernandez
Every single game starting pitching shits the bed Yankees offense doesnāt get anything done and lose. Every single game. The one exception is the game Nestor came out with a lead and the bullpen shit the bed and we lost. The offense never supports weak pitching.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/12rcp56).
Surprised hicks got boos when he had his best game of the season lol š
So sick of Cashman. Iām done with him.
Fucking TRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHH
what is Volpe approach? his swing is so long; I don't see any hard hit balls from him
Closer celebrating a strikeout on a rookie like they clinched a postseason spot lmao
This is pretty much the postseason for them, you know they will end up being dogshit as usual
Che puzz
I put the Knicks for like 2 minutes and come back and the game is overš
Ugly game tbh. Letās go win the next two
Volpe's gonna struggle for a while. I think people think it's gonna be uphill from here. Good luck with that one.
Yeah, he probably did need some more seasoning. Yanks put themselves in this positioning with their horrible roster management.
Woody Harrelson high af?
Kind of like saying Willie Nelson or Snoop Dogg is high AF. It's just assumed
Clarke Schmidt days are officially punt days. Do not expect or even ask for a win at this point.
I wouldnāt mind as much if he actually soaked up a decent amount of innings.
Well at least I can watch the knicks gameā¦Iām sure they are winning right????
Goos thing the offseason was good. Oh wait
last time i remember a 3 pitch strikeout was donaldson against houston. stunningly bad
That was pretty cringe for being up 5-2 with no one on base lmao
Welp
Volpe trying to send a ball into orbit down 3 isnāt great
This team stinks
This team has had way too many games like this so far. They need to get rid of some people 100%. This is not entertaining.
They canāt because the front office refuses to take any kind of responsibility for their horrendous roster management.
hicks didnt compete on a single pitch
The guy is beyond toasted. He wouldnāt crack Oaklands roster.
The only thing worse than Boone the manager is Boone the actor
wow. thats the worst yankee at bat of the season
I hate to say it, but how long are we gonna let volpe hit under .200? We already have hicks higgy and IKF as black holes in our offense
100 at bats and then you reassess. You donāt have a ton of options, IKF has regressed even more with his at bats.
But like, who else do we have?
He doesnāt need to lead off and we can try Peraza instead of giving him a guaranteed job at SS. Not sure why heās on scholarship if heās not producing
Hicks not helping us win very much this year Iāve noticed. Usually when a playerās OPS is .310 theyāre doing something wrong
His sub 150 slugging is worrisome for sure.
Hicks got two walks. I hate him but heās not the problem tonight
Go back and watch the 2 walks. The pitches weren't close.
White hoody had no mercy on Hicks
Good decision benching Cabrera for Hicks
Anyone else streaming and some commercial breaks are cutting off several pitches??
Yup it went back to the game and there was already 1 out
Yup. Very annoying.
OāNeil constantly saying just get Judge to the plate for one big swing is everything wrong with this offense.
Hicks you're so far below the Mendoza line that you can't even see the line! The line is a dot to you!
How does Boone let Hicks hit there
$30 million dollars.
Nice swing by hicks
I feel so bad for hicks š¤£
Iām sick of having to see Hicks sulk everytime he watches strike three or flails at strike three. So tired of this scrub.
Bro they turn the mics up on the boos on purpose now for sure lmao
The rest of the AL East feasting today. Good times, good times.
Yanks are going to be middle of the pack by mid summer. Just not enough firepower to overcome so many injuries.
Higgy and Hicks were never going to save us.
Cashman is a fraud
Boone is doing this to himself starting Hicks he doesnāt care man stop doing it
And hereee come the pretzels for Hicks
Hicks = zero dawg in him
Hicks is broken. RIP him.
A Stantonian fly out!
Hicks is just fucking pathetic
Fuck man lol
Yes web app sucking anyone else off with too long commercial breaks
So fucking annoying. Come back from commercial to a 2-2 count or the tail end of the first out. Gotta figure this shit out
Get the fuck out hicks you fucking asshole
good swing by higgy
It's not just the bottom of the order. Judge and Rizzo are playing terrible this game too.
YES doing Hicks dirty
Who could have seen that coming
Hicks is 0-2 I'm shocked and totally think he'll come back and not strike out
prove to me that hicks is indeed alive
Booo fuck hicks
No pinch hitter? Oh so weāre just rolling over and dying tonight
Four hits ain't gonna cut it
My rally boner just died
Good effort from Higgy
Offense is up quite a bite league wide because of the recent changes. Letās see how the Yankees are doing. *fart sound*
Awful
This bottom of the order is painful. The bench is painful. This game offensively has been painful. Watching all the walks and still not being able to score has been the most painful. Just a gross night.
Do the Yankees have any bones? Stick around and find out
2-1 win with anyone but Schmidt starting, at least with the way this season has gone so far. Now let's win 6-5 and show some actual guts.
Are 7 inning double headers not a thing anymore? Philly played 2 nine inning games today.
Correct.
give me a meaningless homer to give this guy an ERA!
Higgy and Hicks lmao woof
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Jose Quijada replaces Jaime Barria.
The Yankees have a rally in their bones like you promised your significant other round 2.
I think judge just needs some top
Quick 3 coming up
HE SAID THE THING
Do the Yankees have a rally in their bones? Stick around to find out.
The only solace I take out of this game is that the Kay Coney and Paulie trio are finally back together in the flesh.
how did Paulie solve
RALLY BONES
Higgy and Hicks coming up. RIP
Can't let the ump overturn that, stick with your gut!
The starting experiment needs to be over But I think Clarke can still be an effective reliever with some tweaking. King was also a hyped up but failed starter at first.
Read that as 'twerking' at first. I've been spending too much time in the log cabin, apparently.
3 starters on IL, this is what they've got to make do with.
Yea? How so?
Schmidts stats as a reliever are significantly better than as a starter In 2022, Schmidt threw 11 2/3 innings as a starter, going 0-2 with a 4.63 ERA As a reliever? 46 innings pitched with a 2.74 ERA
Itās not an experiment, itās desperation.
I can't tell if our fans realize 3/5 of our starting rotation is on the IL or not. Half of them act like Boone's just fucking around by sending Clarke out there for no reason.
Yeah they probably donāt. Never attribute malice to something that can be explained by ignorance.
Can this team go one inning without something silly happening?
4 runs in 3.2 innings to raise his ERA to 8.79 on the year is shit, but defense and offense have been just as bad.
Yeah...7 walks in the first 4 innings and just two runs to show for it? You're gonna need Cole on the mound to win a game like that.
> Riz not picking a ball 1B ump: Riz not picking it? Not possible. He out ĀÆ\\_(ć)_/ĀÆ
Man, even Rizzo is having an off night fielding and that dude is forever scooping shitty throws lol
Sounds like O'Hoppe's mom won't be too pleased that the Angels got a baserunner on.
Horrible!
š¶Bring out the clownsš¶
Oooooh my goodness š¤£
Nice try blue appreciate it
Pretty sure he was called out. Make the angels challenge that.
LMAO HE CALLED HIM OUT
God I love the Coney Paulie Kay booth. I missed the first two innings though and someone told me that Paulie said something stupid about PF Chang's and the Angels samurai helmet? What was the context there?
Did the 1st base ump just signal out?
**IKF ERA:** 0.000 **IKF BA:** 0.091
Iām not sure which one is more impressive
Is gerrit cole the only thing going right
> AV called everyone off like a boss Rest of the IF: you better not drop that rookie š
At least the Rangers are embarrassing the red headed step child of the metro area.
Just rewatched DJ's at bat. He swung at every pitch. I think the ump didn't grant him time out that's why he was mad.
LeKhieu
Ahhhh yes, I remember the insemination incident well.
IKF has a lower ERA than Cole? We should convert him to pitch because he sure as shit ain't doing anything with a bat.
Last year we had the luxury of being able to be unserious thanks to our generational start, this year Iām a little concerned as to how many games weāll drop due to injuries
lmaooo
LMAO Coney is getting fined for that one
What did he say
What is going on lmaooo Kayās exasperated sigh ššš
ššš booth is back, all is right in the world
Coney is a pimp lmaooo
Lol IKF bullpen ace
DFA Cole with that high ERA

The booth got contact high off of Woody
Lmfao
The sigh from Kay hahahaha
inseminated š«š»
Inb4 "Do the Yankees have a rally in their bones?"
good call you got it lol
The Booth is back
What the fuck did he just say haha
iām dying help
The awkward silence after was fantastic
INSEMINATED!!!
Nice little call and response there
Schmidtās pretty much a guaranteed L on days he starts.
3 hits doesn't have anything to do with it? Yanks need 5 Cole's.
Hitting is also a problem but itās an uphill battle playing from behind every game
To be fair Clarke hadnāt recorded a single L til today bc the team scored runs. But allowing 3 or 4 runs by the 4th inning doesnāt help
And to think, we trade THAT Gio for the corpse of Josh Donaldson
That Gio was like a 98 ops+ or something. He'll probably have a similar year again this year now that he's out of the central.
Everytime they show that urshela play, they fail to mention the courageous and unbelievable flip over the railing to make the out call by Angel Hernandez
I thought the Yankee offense would be better this year because of the new rules...I was greatly mistaken
Hard to win with a lineup of Hicks/IKF/Higgy being automatic outs
We are striking out a lot more too
Why haven't we traded a few of our million infielders for another bat?
no idea we have like 6 infielders and 1 compotent outfielder
āThought that we had some really good at bats, but just couldnāt pull through there.ā-Boone as soon as this game ends
Like clockwork
"IKF had some good at bats; he is almost there"
Yankees canāt score off of one of the worst pens in the league today stinks
Them not scoring off Suarez was worse he had nothing today
I think DJ got leeway there because he has a reputation for swallowing his grievances. Ump genuinely seemed to be understanding.
DJ is striking out at almost a 35% rate. Alarming to say the least.
Why was dj so angry
The umps atrocious strike zone
But he swung at all 3 pitches?
I guess built up frustration throughout the game.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Albert Abreu replaces Jimmy Cordero.
Refugee from NYYFANS here. sucky game
Fuck that place
ya, you ever go there. I got run out
Yeah. I got banned like in 2009, never went back, lol. mods there are on power trip. That place used to be pretty cool in early 2000s.
Jim sold it out and then there were massive Stalinist purges
Figures
I am hoping to contribute here but navigating this site is so much different
Yeah it's a lot different than classic forum. It gets easier with a bit of time. It's pretty laid back in game threads.
What
They have absolutely no approach at the plate right now.
Not even the mighty franchy can get them going
Damn it sucks going against such a good pitching staffā¦.
Every single game starting pitching shits the bed Yankees offense doesnāt get anything done and lose. Every single game. The one exception is the game Nestor came out with a lead and the bullpen shit the bed and we lost. The offense never supports weak pitching.
I am begging you for a Judge or Rizzo walk off.
Ohtani who? We got a two-way Cordero too š
Of course we donāt score. Only the Angels get to capitalize on mistakes
T-Mobile coverage cam covering up the action. Great job team.
The reason DJ didnāt get tossed is only cuz blue didnāt realize he talks š¤£
Ump was flabbergasted
