I guess we’ll have to hear about how Judge simply willed his team to victory.
I know it’s loading the bases, but I’d much rather start over with Rizzo than give Judge a cookie 3-0.

Is much rather Pressly didn’t gag on his cock.

But this game is on Pressly and his inability to do his job.

As would all of us. This loss is on him.
Look no further than Ryan Pressly. If he is the closer after this game, I’ll want to know why.
I’m going to a game this weekend with Yankee fans. Thanks for ruining my weekend, Pressly.
Fucking hell
I hope JV can be the stopper the Astros need tomorrow.

I tend to agree with you Jim. I know for the most part Pressly has gotten the job done, but to me, he just doesn’t look as effective as in prior seasons. His stuff isn’t as dominant.
Baker is deeply conservative. He sticks with Bregman. He sticks with Yuli. Sooner or later he expects them to turn it around, and as long as they’re in first, that’s ok. He’ll stay with Pressly, and the outcome of this series, as painful as it may be for fans, won’t change the bullpen.
Things went pretty well overall the last time the closer situation went sideways.
If Pressly starts punching himself in the face, we’re in business.
His lack of fastball command lately is the big problem. Since being an Astro, he’s always been able to command both his fastball and slider. He’s had some bad misses with his fastball, recently.
The difference between a runner on 2nd and 2 outs and on 3rd with 2 outs and minor enough that yeah, probably would have been the right call. I like Stanek better against lefties anyway. But Pressly doesn’t even have a dick anymore with how much he stomped on it tonight

Fuck Pressly. Its one thing to get knocked around. Its another to walk a guy who’s 2 for his last 30something then bounce a 3-2 pitch that HAS to be close to the first two hitters you’re facing when you’re closing. Absolute pants shit by him.

Yep, 3 run lead, a walk may as well be a homer. They always seem to score anyway. Just throw fucking strikes

I completely agree that it never should have gotten to the point that Judge could win the game with a single. Pressly shit the bed. All I was saying is the way Aaron Judge is hitting this season, I’m not giving in 3-0 unless I have to or the situation calls for it.
3 of the 7 Yankee runs came from walks. You can’t give good teams free baserunners.
He had no command of ANYTHING tonight. Even the strikes he threw were lucky misses.
The only thing good about tonight, and I know I am a coach looking for something positive, is the Yankees right now are the class of MLB, and the Astros demonstrated they can play with NYY.
The Astros gave this game away, not a heroic rally by the Yankees.
