Still undefeated with Schneider in the lineup.

Kiermaier should sit tomorrow. He’s not committed to the Jays anyway. 1 year x 10 million

He wasn't in the lineup yesterday because they were playing against a left hander, if it's the same tonight then Kiermaier will not be in the lineup. I didn't see the game, I heard that Romano got the save, did he pitch well?

thanks, so it wasn't a clean inning, but at least he's back. Hopefully he'll pitch a clean inning his next outing.
I wouldn't expect a lot from Romano or Swanson for a week or two. They need to get some game situations in, but at the same time, if there's a one run lead, it should be Garcia over this short span (while they work on their game mechanics)

Romano was in mid season form last night.

yeah, I guess it's like their spring training so you're right it will probably be a few weeks until they're ready.

Swanson should be a little closer because he's been throwing longer but these guys have 1 IP (Romano) and 1.1 (Swanson) since they were shut down.

The trick is to follow the same formula as game 2 (and the one that they started game 1 with before Mattingly-ing instead).

Stro-show is an interesting pitcher. His velocity is down (90.3mph on his 4 seam and 87.4 on his cutter), he's currently walking and striking out his most guys per 9 ever. He's outpitching his peripherals by quite a bit, with some significant BABIP luck so far this year. The velocity separation between his fastest and slowest pitches isn't great, which suggests that eventually he will regress to the mean.

The Yankees are like the Leafs. They overpaid on Offense (hitting) so they have suspect Defense (pitching)

Stro show at 18 is bad IMO.

Stroman finished 40th in fWAR among starters. The pitchers who make less and are better have either not hit free agency yet, or signed with the team that had them on team-friendly deals. Stroman's deal was always going to be neutral or worse. OTOH, the Stanton deal is an albatross.

Schneider doesn't play 3B, so if Biggio and Schneider both play the infield, it has to be this combo.

I'd have kept Shneider in left field. He killed it there yesterday.

Bring biggio back in at 2nd. keep clement at 3rd.

You're doing it wrong. Stroman feeds of the "nobody believes in me" narrative. You need to visualize him doing great so that your positive vibes throw him off.
