The inside linebacker’s departure leaves another hole on the defense. His release isn’t a surprise, but the timing of it is. This is not a salary dump. Clearly, he no longer fits into the team’s plans.

After the offense exploded for 13 runs in game one and Judge homered in game two, they went back to their anemic ways the rest of the series.

The NYY won both home games, just as the Mets had done a month ago in this matchup. German and Montas provided excellent starting pitching. Judge and Benintendi led the way offensively.

The shrinking AL East lead could have taken a bigger hit if not for the NYY avoiding the sweep, like last series. It won’t get any easier as the Mets visit the Bronx.

The offense continues to struggle. Aaron Hicks is deservedly being phased out. Oswaldo Cabrera makes his MLB debut. Clay Holmes to the IL.

Lots to cover. Derek Jeter has to handle the media scrutiny, especially after the 2004 ALCS collapse. However, the Yankees end up back on top, winning the 2009 World Series in the new stadium they'd just built. Jeter gets his 3000th hit in 2011, but unfortunately, fractures his ankle in 2012. He then announces his retirement before 2014 season.

This is the first time the NYY lost a season series to Seattle since 2002. The offense did next to nothing the last two games. The base running was comical in game two. Abreu shouldn’t be on the roster over Marinaccio. Carpenter will be out 6-8 weeks with a broken foot.

He will be the 28th captain in team history, the first since Ryan McDonagh. I would have preferred the NYR remain without a captain, but can understand why Trouba was chosen.
