“We’re frustrated, and the guys are pissed off. We have to put in a little bit more pressure to get going here.” —Aaron Boone on the Yankees dropping 3 out of 4 to the Orioles, and having lost 13 of their last 18 games.

Gary Sánchez’s 48 strikeouts in 32 games are the third-most through a player’s first 32 games of a season in Yankees franchise history, behind Giancarlo Stanton (51 in 2018) and Tyler Austin (52 in 2018), according to ESPN Stats and Info.

Brian Cashman isn’t getting fired. Hal Steinbrenner isn’t going to fire a guy who shares his operational philosophy. At most, Aaron Boone would be a fall guy, but that is a stretch. If the #Yankees fall short, they’ll blame the injuries and weird season, and move onto 2021

Gerrit Cole was asked about the mood in the #Yankees‘ clubhouse last night. “Not happy. I don’t mean to be short, but not happy.”
Baseball, it is said, is only a game. True. And the Grand Canyon is only a hole in Arizona. Not all holes, or games, are created equal.
