Quick Hit: Sound the Alarm...

The bullpen can't get it done anymore. The Yankees are now 2-8 in August and 15-21 since July 1st. This is not good.

Clay Holmes 4 Blown Saves since July 9, all coming in losses.


Morning of July 3, 58-21. Morning of August 13, 71-42, meaning they went 13-21 during that time. That's a .382 winning percentage. That's seven weeks of being the Detroit Tigers, who are .381 on the whole season.


Oh, and Joey Gallo has a 115 OPS+ for the Dodgers, and Jordan Montgomery has 11 IP with a 0.00 ERA.

Good points. I did find it a little bit surprising that Cashman came away from the deadline without a real back end of the bullpen threat like Mantiply, Robertson or possibly Bednars. I think the Yankees will respond to this by moving Chapman back into the closer's role. Giving the options. I don't know if that's such a bad idea because they have a little bit of time to test that out and see if he can resume his duties. Holmes suddenly just can't throw strikes. Maybe he needs a break.

"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."
