This Week on the Blog
Yankees: Yanks lost one they probably should have won last night, and their margin of errror for losses could end today, if they blow another one. We need "Playoff" Tanaka, and he is available and scheduled to throw. Boston had to use their game 3 starter, Porcello, last night because their bullpen is so bad. Need to start getting into it fast. This is doable and guys like Stanton and Torres, who were awful last night, can be heros tonight. Go Yankees!
Giants: You are what you're recod says you are. So they have a 25% chance of winning tomorrow. Ugh. They have to get Saquon and OBJ more involved. One good thing: the rookies like Saquon, Will Hernandez, Lorenzo Carter and BJ Hill, are already among the best players on the team. So sucking again, and getting more high picks, could really pay off -- next year. We'll see if they have any heart.
Knicks: The Knicks are now 3-0, and we are witnessing actual player development. Let's take Kevin Knox for example, we knew he was a scorer, but he is also working really hard on D, and getting steals, getting lots of rebounds, and suddenly trying to block a lot of shots. Alonzo Trier is a pure scorer, and clearly more valuable than Mudiay, so that could be the move, if they want to put him on a regular contract. Should mention THjr. In game 2 Fizdale benched him after taking a bad 3. Well, last night a driving and dishing Hardaway came back with 19 first half points and no dumb shots. That was impressive.
Rangers: The Rangers are 0-1 but got reffed at home in game one and if they play as hard against Buffalo tonight, they should get their first win. As with the Knicks, development will be key, and guys like Chytil, and Buch are already looking like two of the best on the team. Howden, who is centering the 4th line has good size and great hands, so lets see if he can pot a few. I was amazing that Vesey and MZA didn't score Thursday. They had their chances.
So there it is, all 4 teams are playing, though the Yanks need to pick it up if they want to keep playing. Have a great one!

Not my idea but I like it. If Hicks can’t go, Stanton in LF, Hech at 3B, Andujar DH.
Playing Gardner v a LHP is bullshit.
Boone said Hicks’ MRI came back “clean” but he still feels a little something in the hamstring so he’s holding him out tonight. Said he is available off the bench
If anything other than ability is real, like trying harder, the Giants may have a chance to win this game. If it isnt and they lose because of inferior talent, this is the last game of the season that I want them to win.
F this horribly run football team.
F Mara. He hires incompetent shit because he is shit.
They are so undisciplined which means Shurmur isn’t respected. As does OBJ’s interview which was accurate but dumb.
Time to find out about Lauletta.
BS loss.
Watching Shurmur address the media I can see the advantages of the Yankees hiring Boone. Win or lose, Boone handles the media with equanimity.
Shurmur needs to learn to that humor can be disarming.
Asked Landon Collins what the mood is in the locker room: “The mood is we need better refs. That’s the mood. Point-blank, simple. It’s bogus calls being called out there.”
They got reffed. Haven't been this mad in years.
I can get too upset about OBJ’s comments to the media. For years I’ve been saying that Eli should have publicly spoken up about management incompetence with the offense line thay has destroyed his career. Odell sort of doing the same thing even if the way did it wasn’t great.
Giants will release OT Ereck Flowers if he is not traded by 4 p.m. Tuesday, per source.

Like it matters now
As such, coach David Fizdale indicated for the first time Wednesday that he envisions Robinson spending some time in the G League this season.
