    Don's use of the team's record as his only defense is very weak. That's like defending a pitcher based on their W-L record, one of the least indicative stats of a pitcher's actual skill. Yes, the yankees have the best record right now, but the Braves and Red Sox, for example, started the season with shameful records and have since risen to become serious playoff contenders.

    Yes the Yankees are in first place with Joey Gallo batting what he’s batting. That doesn’t mean he isn’t hurting them every time he steps to the plate. He is a rally killer and him being a great outfielder doesn’t trump his offensive woes. The Michael Kay thing aside, this caller was absolutely right about Joey Gallo.

      Agree with everything you said. He doesn't bring anything to the Yankees. Replace him with Andujar and we get slightly better output. I hate seeing Gallo strike out with RISP with less than 2 outs. All you have to do is put the ball in play, sac fly, maybe even an RBI groundout if there's not a DP opportunity. Maybe a hit. These things, Andujar can do. He puts the bat on the ball. I'm tired of seeing Gallo strike out over and over again. Sometimes you just need to make contact to score a run and Gallo can't do that. So frustrating watching him.

    Hey Don, legit answer to your question. How is Gallo hurting this team...easy, forcing our better RP's to have to pitch high innings as opposed to a Luetge or Abreu. Gallo is a rally/run killer. Tie game or Yanks up 1 in the 6th inning. Man on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out ...Gallo is going to K on 3 pitches(last one chest high fastball) and we end up not scoring any runs forcing Boone to go to King instead of having breathing room. Happens every night he plays.

      I am noticing lately that there are way too many save situations the bullpen is being forced into after squandering opportunities from lack of sac flies or timely hits. They can't keep playing this "come back from behind" card. Yankees have taxed their bullpen for the better part of a decade and everyone's in denial about it until September and the play offs when once "lights-out" guys fold and Yankees fans are scratching their heads. You think Chapman just forgot how to pitch? The guy's been used for 50+ games pretty much every season. Chad Green was another one who was basically pitching in every game. And lest we forget, Dellin Betances probably epitomizes "worked down to the bone." Career cut short for sure.
