The Short Porch

As we put Sunday's horrific loss behind us, we look ahead towards the Yankees' upcoming homestand against the Red Sox and Phillies (with varying levels of optimism). We discuss the Home Run Derby and All-Star Game, as well as give our predictions for when Jasson Dominguez will have his first game in pinstripes. We also give a midseason update on our prop bets from the beginning of the season and see who is currently in the lead. And Tommy rants about elevators and plagiarism. Welcome to the second half.

The Yankees had their REAL worst loss of the season on Sunday in Houston, blowing a 7-2 lead in the ninth capped off by a walk-off HR from, you guessed it, Jose Altuve. The way this team manages to find new and creative ways to crush our spirits is truly evil. All the positive vibes from Nestor's solid start on Friday and a complete-game shutout from Gerrit Cole on Saturday, gone. Everything sucks. See you all in the second half!!!

The Yankees lost their subway series to the Mets at the stadium this week. Aroldis Chapman might be the worst pitcher in baseball right now but Boone continues to use him as the closer in an act of sabotage. The Yankees manager’s excuse for pulling Chad Green on Sunday was embarrassing. Gerrit Cole continues to suck in the post sticky substance era and we voice our concerns. Cole also gave another terrible answer in a presser and we think he needs some extreme PR 101 lessons. Who is the new closer of this team? Nestor needs a bigger role. Who do you keep in a rebuild? All this and more on today’s show.

The Yankees managed to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory against the Angels, suffering one of the worst regular season losses in a long time. Aaron Boone also decided to sit both Judge and Gio in a crucial game against Ohtani because that's just what smart managers do. Nothing can go right for this team.

Swept by the Sox. Cole was rocked. No one got the big hit. The Yankees are simply not a good team.

The Yankees took two of three over the Royals and are 40-34 on the year as they head to Boston for a big weekend. Luke Voit is back and mashing like the beast we know him to be. Wednesday’s game might very well be the win of the year. Gary remains red hot and continues to push for an ASG spot. Cole was good once again on Tuesday but Lasagna and Chapman really struggled this week. More concerns for Aroldis for sure. The new sticky substance checks were put into this place week and were a disaster. We break it all down and more with DMs to close out the show.

The Yankees refuse to stop turning triple plays. Some would say they’re obsessed with it and we expect a rule change at some point to stop them. The Yankees not only won a weekend game but also took the series against the A’s. Gary Sanchez remains scorching hot and it’s awesome. Good baseball is finally being played just when they needed it most. Gio survived splinters to the eye and we cringe at the thought of it happening to us. Johnny Lasagna deserves an All Star spot no questions asked. Luke Voit returns Tuesday.

The Yankees have won both games to start the Jays series in Buffalo. Gary Sanchez stays fire hot at the plate, hitting a massive go ahead homer late on Wednesday. Gerrit Cole was very good for 8 innings and then further voiced his frustration with MLB’s stupid new sticky substance rules. Cashman had some interesting quotes about Boone. Giancarlo is trying to play the outfield next month. Yankee Stadium is re-opening with full capacity on Friday. We talk about all that and more including a breakdown of how stupid Rob Manfred continues to be on this episode.

The Yankees continued their misery of a season by getting swept in Philly over the weekend. Is Jamo a reliever for this team? Sevy might be dead. Boone got pissed off by a Bryan Hoch question. Giancarlo didn’t play the outfield this weekend because the Yankees don’t care about the regular season. Hubbs has a theory about sleep and Trevor Bauer stinks. Plus Tommy now has a dog and is a grill master?

With tons of scrutiny and controversy surrounding our ace, angry Gerrit Cole showed up in Minnesota and shut up Josh Donaldson. Cole threw the hardest he’s ever thrown in his career as he answered the bell and helped the Yanks get another win in Minnesota. The bats are cooking and it’s refreshing to watch. The guys discuss how Andujar needs to play everyday and how Gary needs more playing time given how hot he currently is. Yankee Stadium is finally increasing their capacity almost back to full strength and we’re ecstatic. Pete Alonso has a wild conspiracy about the jucied/deaded baseballs and we debate how many people have seen the movie The Wizard of Oz.
