Yankees pitching isn't very good.  I suppose I'm not going to be convinced that this team is World Series ready until we win a series from the Giants, Cardinals, or Dodgers.

We handled the Giants easily last year.       :whip:        During the regular season that is.     :?

Avoiding Pineda and Tanaka really helps the Nats. Eovaldi has been pretty good as of late but is prone to getting hit. Warren is better as a reliever than a starter.

The NYY middle-relief is rough right now (no one pitching well) but the 8th and 9th innings are completely locked down, so if the Nats are down late they will be in trouble.

Facing the NYY lineup will be a really good test for Gio and AJ.

I was saying the same thing. I see that I have to work on my phrasing. I just meant we'd be looking through our rearview.

No. Pretty soon the objects in our rearview mirror will not be closer than they appear because we are going to run away with the division.

We also know him quite well from his time with Miami.  He has a career 2-4 record with a 4.76 ERA against us in 7 games.

Yes and we were World Series ready last year.  (The playoffs are a crapshoot.)  If we handle them as easily this season then I'll say we are maybe as good as last year.

No way we have a chance for the playoffs at this rate.

Phillies have won six in a row. Could be a good weekend series.

The Marlins are the Redskins of the MLB. What a mess in South Florida, they should move to Montreal.

Seconded. We all know if it's a move and not expansion, it'll be the Rays.

Their roster has a lot of nice young pieces. The organization is so dysfunctional.
I wonder if Rizzo is just biding his time, waiting for them to implode and then sweep in and grab some players.

I am a Phillies fan but no way they can keep it up. They will regress as expected. Started last night. Franco at 3b could be the real deal but they need lots of pieces. Some good pitching prospects in double A.

It's amazing how all four of those teams can refuse to lose so much, despite the weighted schedule which features them constantly playing one another so much.
