They brought hicks in the game today so maybe he’s not hurt too bad. Stanton is having trouble adjusting, I think it could be his stance. There’s just no rhythm in there. So stiff.

He just got back. Judge and Stanton have time to adjust in my book. Just glad they're back and that the Yanks just took another from Houston!

Going for the sweep against Houston tonight!

Happ has not been pitching well. Would like to see them add someone to help the rotation even with severino coming back. If not for that one terrible inning, I think we win that last game against the Astros. 3/4 is still satisfying regardless.

I believe once they get their practice swings in they will both be huge for our lineup. Would like to see our lineup hit for average more than last year. I think they’ve been doing that so far.

I agree, the Yankees need pitching before the deadline. Glad to get Severino back (the rumor is he'll be back around the All-Star break the last time I heard). So that's basically like a pick-up. Also, I've heard if the Yankees trade Frazier, it won't be for a rental or for someone only controllable for next year, which I'm happy about. I'd love for them to keep him, but don't sell low on him!

I like that we will get to see the yanks play so early in the morning when they go to London.

Too early for me unfortunately. 9am on Sunday! Plus, now Stanton's back on the DL with a knee injury. Geez, this guy can't stay healthy and that was a concern of mine when they traded for him. He's been banged up somewhat in his career.

Stanton being injured really hurts us. But I think we can stay afloat until he gets back. Frazier will be called back up I think.

I hope so. Would like to see Frazier back up but for the series this weekend they called up Mike Tauchman. Also, Cashman says he won't be back until August so there goes another month he's gonna miss. This is a lost season for him.

Yanks take both in London against Boston. They're now 6-1 against them on the season!

The pitchers didn’t look too good in London. Must have been jet lag. Weird games but yanks pulled them both out thankfully.

Yeah, I'm not sure if it was the jet lag or dead center being 385. I don't think MLB complained about the offense though. But as you said, just happy we got the W's

Still wondering who they are going to pursue at the deadline. I have seen reports about Bauer.

I'm more concerned with what they'll have to give up. Reports are they signed the hottest international prospect Jasson Dominguez. It was for $5.1 million and some (Fangraphs) already rank him as the #61 best prospect in all of baseball (and he's only 16-years-old!)

Subway Series.... could the Mets actually take both?

Close call on the second game until the 6th.

I see some pretty lofty expectations being set on this kid already

Yup. They're calling him the next Trout but sounds like everybody wanted to get him. The Yankees put all their eggs in one basket because he pretty much was the only player they could sign internationally this year. Let's hope it pays off for them! He can't play any this year so we won't be able to see a glimpse of him until next season.

For that money they obviously really like what they see and they believe the hype. Best case scenario is that he’s develops for a season or 2 and he comes up as a 18-19 year old phenom.

Yanks have been pulling it out in extras recently

His baseball card next year will be outrageous!

Personally, I wouldn't rush him. You'll have Judge in right and Hicks in center. I hope they keep Frazier and he can slide into left once Gardner retires. That way they can make sure Dominguez is ready.



Good wins against Tampa. Glad they're pulling them out!

Mets leading in the 8th

How did you all enjoy the all star game and home run derby? I thought both were great. Yanks have to build their lead to start off the second half.

I didn't watch any of it (haven't even seen the highlights). Just looking forward to tomorrow when the second half starts. Trade deadline is 20 days away. Should be an exciting few weeks!

I think the yanks will be adding relievers and some more bats. The market for starters isn’t too hot right now. I want to see them pursue a blue chip starter no matter what but I have my hopes set low.

If you didn't watch the HR Derby you definitely missed out. Vlad Jr. and Joc Pedersen put on the best round the Derby has ever seen!

I do too but from what I'm hearing, the Yankees want someone controllable through at least next year (which I like). I don't want to to the rental route, especially if you have to give up good talent for it. Time will tell.



I never do. It's too long. I don't know if they've done anything to change that but I haven't tuned in in years to watch one.

Y'all enjoying that gift in D.J. Lemahieu yet? I told you that you got a good one! I see he's doing well moving leagues. Generally you have a rough year and then your 2nd year is when you're back to hitting like normal. He just moved over and started hitting right away
