6/3-6/5 - Tigers at Yankees

[ThePrideofShiner]

It feels like the Tigers should be better than their record, but here we are. I'd be OK with two out of three this weekend.

Friday: Elvin Rodriguez (0-0, 6.17 ERA) vs. Gerrit Cole (4-1, 3.12 ERA), 7:05 p.m. EDT
Saturday: Beau Brieske (0-4, 5.25 ERA) vs. Luis Severino (3-1, 3.38 ERA), 1:05 p.m. EDT
Sunday: Rony Garcia (0-1, 4.70 ERA) vs. Jordan Montgomery (1-1, 3.04 ERA), 11:35 a.m. EDT

DET has won 7 of their last 9, 5-1 against MIN and 2-1 against CLE.

I know he isn't pitching this series but...

Only 4 people have done that in MLB history.

[Soxcat]

Apple TV again. Ugh

 

[jon abbey]

Gleyber sits:

1. DJ LeMahieu (R) 2B
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Anthony Rizzo (L) 1B
4. Josh Donaldson (R) 3B
5. Miguel Andujar (R) LF
6. Matt Carpenter (L) DH
7. Isiah Kiner-Falefa (R) SS
8. Jose Trevino (R) C
9. Aaron Hicks (S) CF

 

[jon abbey]

NY was 39-22 last season after trading for Rizzo, so they are 75-37 overall since then, a 108-54 pace for 2/3 of a season.

 

[jon abbey]

This is infuriating:

"Unfortunately, live streaming on Apple TV cannot be paused."

 

[jon abbey]

Love Trevino.

 

[jon abbey]

Find yourself someone who loves you as much as I love Jose Trevino.

 

[jon abbey]

Carpenter perfect bunt hit against the shift started this rally.

Heh, Hicks.

 

[jon abbey]

I have to pee during commercial breaks like it is 1980 again.

 

[jon abbey]

Rizzo!

 

[Wingack]

This feels like one of those add bigly to the run differential games.

 

[jon abbey]

Holy shit, Matt Carpenter. He barely missed one his first time up too.

 

[jarules1185]

I think it's mostly because it's a 10-0 game, but I'm actually enjoying the Apple TV broadcast right now. It feels different than a normal broadcast in some ways, camera angles, etc. Not saying it's better so much than that it feels like an interesting contrast.

Chris Young is very good, I would much prefer him to Beltran on YES. I just hate the inability to DVR/pause etc., it's not like I'm going to watch commercials either way.

Agreed on Young. Apple knows how to please advertising partners and MLB at viewers' expense, I guess. I just like new broadcasts to some degree. Bored of YES, FOX, etc.

 

[jon abbey]

As of this moment, season OPS:

Jose Trevino .821
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. .818

(Actually that was before Trevino just walked again.)

 

[jon abbey]

DJ up for the second time this inning, still just one out.

12-0, damn.

 

[jon abbey]

Cole had to wait a long time between innings there.

 

[strek1]

Will they let Cole throw as many pitches as it will take? What's his season high?

 

[jon abbey]

86 pitches for Cole through 6, he needs some short ABs to have a shot at finishing this. He is working on 5 days rest, not his normal 4.

 

[jon abbey]

Long way to go.

 

[derekson]

Fuck, I was gonna watch the Sox game, saw this was going on, then realized I have to tune into Apple TV coverage if I wanna see what happens. RIP me.

 

[jon abbey]

Cole threw 129 pitches in that insane 1-0 complete game against the Astros last year that is in my sig.

 

[jon abbey]

Over, probably for the best.

 

[jon abbey]

Get one more out, Gerrit.

 

[jon abbey]

Good job, let the pen finish this one.

 

[strek1]

Over, probably for the best.

That's the thing. Everybody wants to see history but when the team is going as well as you guys are, it probably is for the best. Don't want to see your best guy "Johan Santana" himself and mess up his near future health.

 

[jon abbey]

Yep, exactly. His pitch count wasn't in bad shape yet but this works just fine for me, maybe NY can finally get Manny Banuelos into a game. He has been on the team for a week and not gotten into one yet.

[jon abbey]

Against two different teams too, not two guys taking advantage of the same weak lineup.

[jon abbey]

Good job Manny B, I would like them to trade/DFA Luetge and promote Shane Greene, and if Banuelos looks solid as a pen lefty, that helps that possibility.

 

[Wingack]

Another win in the books.

Total domination.

Stanton coming back soon too, possibly this weekend.

 

[jon abbey]

It is no fun chasing the Yankees this year, the Blue Jays won 8 in a row before losing tonight, so they are 8-1 since 5/24. NY is 8-2 since 5/24.

 

[Murderer's Crow]

Find yourself someone who loves you as much as I love Jose Trevino.

I've had to watch a lot of games on my phone the last month and sometimes have to just watch via alert or gameday. The amount of "Trevino" notifications has been amazing.

 

[jon abbey]

This seems like it must be Stanton, hurrah! People have always loved Andujar too much but the bottom line is he is a now adequate defensive LF who has only OPSd .596 so far (43 MLB PAs in 2022). He could make it hard to keep him down in AAA by going nuts there, but his OPS in AAA so far this year has only been .780.

[jon abbey]

Bad timing for Locastro to be out overlapping with Stanton and Donaldson, he would have gotten some starts if he'd been active the past ten days but now with them both back, he is back to AAA.

 

[jon abbey]

Also Andujar looked a lot better this past stint, at least I see now why Cashman has kept him on the 40 man this long.

 

[jon abbey]

I don't think I have ever before rooted for a team where my confidence in that day's pitcher is so catcher-dependent. All five SPs are very solid with Higgy, but even better with Trevino. I checked to see if the numbers corroborated this and they definitely do:

Higashioka: 221.1 innings caught, .645 OPS allowed and a 3.33 ERA.

Trevino (not counting tonight's shutout): 227 innings caught, .563 OPS allowed, and a 2.26 ERA.

 

[Wingack]

Wow. That is quite a stat.

[jon abbey]

Stanton DHing keeps Carpenter on the bench in favor of the two struggling OFs in Hicks and Gallo.

Aaron Judge CF
Josh Donaldson 3B
Anthony Rizzo 1B
Giancarlo Stanton DH
Gleyber Torres 2B
Joey Gallo RF
Isiah Kiner-Falefa SS
Kyle Higashioka C
Aaron Hicks LF

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Most homeruns allowed per 9 innings in Yankee Stadium should be interesting. Good luck Brieske.

 

[cromulence]

Picking up where they left off.
