Aug 18, 202355:37
EPISODE 165: The Problem

EPISODE 165: The Problem

The Yankees are playing about equal to how they have been, and the glimpses of hope are fading. Our one thing to look at positivley, our pitching is falling apart infront of our eyes and the offense isn't looking like it wants to help.

Episode 161: No Shining Stars

Episode 161: No Shining Stars

Swept by the sox. There are no more words needed to explain our performance lately. The team needs Judge back and there isn't much timetable to get him back. No one else is stepping up and this team is falling apart offensively.
