The Yankees suck. They really do. They have lost six of seven and have scored 18 runs in those seven games. They are now 6-11 on the season, and don't look any closer to turning their season around.

After the recap, former Yankees pitcher Brian Gordon joined me to talk about transitioning from the outfield to the mound after a decade in the minors, how Nolan Ryan helped him change positions, his first call-up the majors as a reliever with the Rangers, his unbelievable 2011 season in Triple-A, the June 15 opt-out that allowed him to be a Yankee, making his first career start in Yankee Stadium, playing in the KBO in Korea and what his post-playing career has been like.

The Yankees won a game. That's not a joke. They actually won. They did everything they could to blow a gifted bases-loaded, no-out rally in the eighth inning, but thanks to a wild pitch and the Braves walking in a run, they Yankees went on to win 3-1.

After the recap, Dylan Short of Locked on Braves Podcast joined me to talk about the Braves being five outs from the World Series in 2020, their slow start to the season like the Yankees and the state of their offense and rotation.

The Yankees are the worst team in the American League. At 5-10, they have lost five straight games after getting swept by the Rays and are now 3-9 against the Rays and Blue Jays this season, their direct competition for the AL East. Things are bad and they might get worse this week.

The Yankees lost again and they lost to the Rays once again. The Yankees have lost four straight to fall to four games under .500, holding on to their spot as the worst team in the American League. The manager and the players keep saying they are going to turn it around and they keep failing to do so.

The Yankees lost to the Rays 8-2 on Friday night to fall three games under .500. In this 11-game stretch against the Rays, Blue Jays and Braves, the Yankees are 2-5 with still two games against the Rays and two against the Braves to go. If you think this is the Yankees bottoming out, you have no idea.

After the recap, Kevin Weiss of Locked on Rays Podcast joined me to talk about the first Yankees-Rays series, the Rays' similar rotation questions, their lack of offense and their depleted bullpen.

The Yankees suck. They really do. Their manager is a happy-go-lucky idiot, their lineup can't hit and their starting pitching is as bad as was feared.

After the recap, longtime friend, former American Idol winner and huge Yankees fan Nick Fradiani joined me to talk about how depressing it has been to watch the Yankees, what happened to the team that was so fun and exciting back in 2017 and if things will get better or worse for them.

The Yankees have one starting pitcher. OK, one-and-a-half. The Yankees' decision to let Masahiro Tanaka walk and not sign any free-agent starting pitchers other than Corey Kluber, who had barely pitched over the last two seasons, and trade for Jameson Taillon, who had also barely pitched over the last two seasons, was questioned all offseason. We're seeing why. The offense has been abysmal, but the rotation is a problem that might not go away. 

After the recap, Rob Wong of Blue Jays Baseball and Jays Talk on Sportsnet 590 The Fan joined me to talk about the Blue Jays' start to the season, George Springer getting hurt while already hurt, Randal Grichuk owning the Yankees, the Blue Jays' impressive bullpen and his expectations for the Blue Jays in 2021.

Gerrit Cole pitched another gem (6 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 ER, 1 BB, 8 K) and it wasn't because Kyle Higashioka caught him. Cole is arguably the best pitcher in the world and it isn't because of who's behind the plate, the way it wasn't when he was in Pittsburgh or Houston. On Monday, his apparent personal catcher Kyle Higashioka was the entire offense and the Yankees beat the Blue Jays 3-1.

After the recap, Tom Scibelli of Barstool Sports joined me to talk about why it's not early in the season for these Yankees, Aaron Boone's nonsensical lineup decisions, the ongoing personal catcher debate and who should get the call the next time a fifth starter is needed.

Yankees Podcast: Finally Beat the Rays

If the Yankees end up playing in the one-game playoff/wild-card game in October by one or two games, or end up missing the playoffs completely by one or two games, it will be because they decided to stand by Scumbag Domingo German and allow him to start two games for them this season.
