I’m on record as saying we need a good back end reliever.  I doubt I’d do Basallo for Miller.  It’s tempting though.  

Lucas Ercegg in Oakland has a live arm and would bolster the pen.  He's in a one-year, $750K contract with the A's.

June 2-June 12

64-41 run differential

Giants 1-0 

Twins 3-0

The Yankees are playing really well. It was said in a recent game thread that they can’t maintain a .700 winning percentage all season, but they are sure running on all 8 cylinders at the moment.

Both teams have a day off next week before their series in NY, but before then, NY gets the Bosox, and the Os get Philly. 
what fun!

Ha! You beat me to it!

I was going to point out that the yankees have been mainly relying on a phenomenal May, when they were 21-7.

In April they were 15-12

In June, they were only 14-13, but that’s still a winning record.

In July, they are 0-4 getting swept by the Reds and so far 0-1 against the Bosox.

They have made some embarrassing gaffes in the last couple games, including the LAZIEST double play I ever saw. Lemahieu didn’t get into a run down to allow Volpe to score, and Volpe was lollygagging down the third base line towards home plate, actually watching the play at second, and didn’t touch home before the play was over, so the run didn’t score.

Its fair to ask how much the Clubhouse Angst will affect them going forward.

Meanwhile, Cortes has apparently gotten over a brief funk, and is pitching well again, but the bullpen is suffering from some malaise.

The Orioles have been almost magically consistent, winning 17 games in each full month regardless of opponent. 
 

Good times…

Ben Rice might be a problem moving forward.

Or, he’s just a guy who had a good day.
