19487The team is snake bitten. The only real strength of the team, the bullpen, just went south. When things are going bad, nothing works.

19488That play was nowhere in the neighborhood. Gonzalez was waaaay off the bag. The timing between Lindor and Gonzalez was waaaaay off. It almost appeared that Gonzalez was expecting a hard toss and not a flip messing up the timing completely.

19489Yankees may need some help to hold off the RedSox. They could use another stud in the bullpen and have plenty of top grade minor league talent. I see a perfect match there.Maybe it's time to trade away some of these overpaid non-performers for some prospects that WANT to play??

19490In 1997 we were 33-29 at this point. Wasn't until Thome's birthday in August when his teammates all pulled their socks up that the team made a run and went to 7th game of world series. I'm nowhere near ready to give up the ship. We just need a spark of some kind. Something to get this team going.
I see Lindor is in lead off spot tonight, and leads off with a hit. Maybe this will give them a spark.

19491The speed of Zimmer has been providing a nice spark too. He just legged out a grounder and got us another run!
And you know I love it when Zimmer gets on a roll!

19492Brantley's wife is having a baby so he's out on paternity leave. Robertson filling in, batting 2nd, and he's 2-2.

194945-0 ... Indians have them circling the wagons today.
Jose got thrown out trying to steal just before the EE homer or it would be 6-0.
As long as we don't bring that Miller guy on in relief today we should be OK.

19497Well, Tomlin doing Tomlin things. Just gave up his 2nd homer. It's 5-4 now. And still no outs in 5th.
Re: GameTime!™
19499Zimmer catches a line drive then throws to 2nd to double off the runner!
Good looking player this kid.

19500All 5 tools in evidence for Zimmer: he can field, he can throw, he can run, he can hit for power, the weakest is his general hitting, but he's decent at tool no. 6-- drawing walks.
