The Short Porch

The cheating Astros made their long awaited return to the Bronx, and it did not disappoint. Hubbs and Tommy recap the eventful series: the crazy first inning of Tuesday, mentally dominating Altuve (until Thursday), Giancarlo's hot streak, Dusty Baker not shutting up, and more. We also might want Albert Pujols on the Yankees even though it's a terrible idea.

The lowest team ERA in the American League belongs to the New York Yankees. The boys snapped out of it and swept the Tigers this weekend behind some lights out pitching. Gerrit Cole continues to do things that have never been done before. Jamo found himself and earned his first win in two years. Kluber shoved for 8 innings on Sunday in magnificent fashion. Judge and Stanton are on fire. Blake Lively even became a Yankee fan on Friday because they were playing so well. Big series against the Astros on Tuesday. We also discuss aliens and simulation theory. Thanks to everyone for supporting the Pod through our first 250 episodes. The best is yet to come.

Mike Tauchman was traded for Wandy Peralta. The Yanks split with the O’s. Pitching looked pretty good all weekend but the Thursday loss really put a damper on everything. Higgy is the guy now which is great but Tyler Wade is still a thing somehow. We’re all over the place today plus Aaron Rodgers wants out of Green Bay and Hubbs is furious.

The Yankees messed around and actually played some good baseball this weekend, taking 3 of 4 in Cleveland. Hubbs found a magic bracelet and plans to use its powers to steer this season back on course. Gerrit Cole was magnificent in his duel against Shane Bieber. Rougned Odor’s bat drop stole our hearts. Aroldis Chapman and the bullpen continued to dazzle. Nick Nelson stinks and is being sent down. The guys discuss their frustration on the Mike King situation, Gleyber’s improvements after being underfire, and much more.

The Yankees split their series with the Braves and come away not feeling any better about themselves. The offense is abysmal, never stringing together any sort of momentum or hope. Gleyber Torres is as bad as thought can possibly imagine. Boone continues his stupid run of clichés that only further piss off the fanbase. Mike Ford was promoted and made a few nice plays while also rocking a killer stache. Taillon and Kluber showed improvements. Still, the offense does nothing. Everything is bad. We are sad. At least the Knicks are good.

The Yankees suck. Swept by the Rays. Same old story. Didn’t hit at all, didn’t pitch when they had to and couldn’t field a damn thing all weekend. Is Aaron Boone actually on the hot seat? Aaron Hicks is the most lost player in baseball right now but hit 3rd again on Sunday because why not? Clint Frazier’s struggles continue. Fans threw baseballs on the field on Friday. Nothing is good. The Knicks are everything the Yankees are not and it’s stunning to see. Come bathe in our misery with us!

The Yankees continue to not play baseball well in any facet. The team’s OPS is the lowest it’s been since 1989. The starting pitchers besides Gerrit Cole can’t pitch. No one can run the bases. Jay Bruce somehow continues to play first base and it’s way past insanity at this point. Kluber is bad. Taillon struggled. No one can really hit. Aaron Boone refuses to get ejected. Did we say Jay Bruce keeps playing? Nothing is good. Also, A-Rod bought the Timberwolves and Anthony Edwards doesn’t know who he is. The Rays bragged about their AL champion rings. Did Producer TJ pay to play for his state championship team? We end the show with listener voicemails who also share our dismay of Jay Bruce and this team. Happy Birthday to TJ’s Dad.

The Yankees avoided the sweep in Tampa thanks to some heroics from Rougned Odor. We’re not actually sure if Aaron Boone knows what it means to name a guy the starting LF of the team because Clint Frazier barely played this weekend. Aaron Hicks continues to be an atrocity but still is the 3 hitter for some Godforsaken reason. The Thairo Estrada era is officially over. Tyler Wade was sent down, as was Domingo. We break down the whole weekend and more on this episode of The Short Porch!!!

Gerrit Cole struck out 13 Orioles in one of his most dominant starts as a Yankee. The guys break down how great it is to have this man in pinstripes being the ace of this team. Jay Bruce did some baseball things and Mush isn’t impressed. The Yankees made a surprise for Rougned Odor and the guys try to make sense of it. Hubbs continues his push to make Derek Dietrich a thing. Jordan Montgomery pitched a gem himself on Monday. Giancarlo blasted a grand slam and politely told every fan booing him to shut up. Hubbs also went to a Yankee game to see Jamo pitch!

First weekend of Yankees baseball is in the books and no one besides Gary and Clint can hit. The good news is that the pitching has been awesome, especially Loaisiga and Green. Almost no offense though which is a problem. The guys are done with the Aaron Hicks 3 hole experiment. We break down Kluber and Domingo first starts as well. Sure it’s early but that sucked. We check with the rest of the AL East and our friends in Chicago who apparently mourned the death of Eloy Jimenez even though he’s very alive. Baseball is back!
