"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.
Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."

yes, indeedy
a most historic day
May the 34
All the more reason that the Yankees did NOT need to add a new starting pitcher from outside their organization during the last off season. Luis Gil, in effect, was that new addition, and the Yankees had him all along in their organization, since acquiring him when he was in the lowest part of the Minnesota Twins minor league system, and nurturing him through their own minor league system.
Eh, its just another contrived factoid that people like to toss around. Giving up 2 runs in 5 innings is not that great a pitching performance. It equates to a 3.60 ERA. Not bad but not that noteworthy.
obviously there are countless and unforeseeable things that will happen between today and October. i get that!! but just for fun, If the playoffs started today, what is the playoff pitching rotation?
my honest answer is that I have no idea who pitches game one or who goes to the pen. i feel VERY sure that Gil is in the rotation!! I feel like he is the ONLY lock of the 5 to NOT go to the pen for the playoffs. at the same time, I am not sure they put the weight of game one on him
take this further and hope and guess that Cole returns as a healthy and fully Cole Gerrit Cole. He is the obviou…
