    Anybody else wonder if what ERod went through, tonight had anything to do with COVID?

    There is a pretty wide variety of symptoms reported, sometimes long after apparent recovery.
    When you say it's gonna happen now
    When exactly do you mean?

    This was probably the most mysterious pull out ever.

    i do not envy Eduardo and his Covid experience. I have been lucky enough to never suffer a migraine, so cannot relate directly to the pain it may cause. But I do know that Erod has issues, health or otherwise, and I am going to guess he is a gone dude come next season . Maybe he is a WS MVP or maybe he is just another in a line of RS players who are inexplicable .

    I missed teh replay, so I could be wrong.
    I've watched the replay on the mlb.com app, but it only has a couple of camera angles. Yes, Verdugo is running hard, but I don't know if he ran hard from the outset. The camera from last night, which I no longer can see, showed the ball hitting his glove, which normally allows the official scorer to call an error if he thinks one is merited.

    My guess is you are right: COVID related.

    What a great performance by Valdez. I like Valdez, it is easy to say that now (of course) but I would say that no matter what--I like watching pitchers who have a quality changeup and that is Valdez's best pitch.

    A great game by Devers as well, but it was Duran who led the charge against Cole. Duran's ground rule double was the first big hit off of Cole and it seemed to ignite the offense, it sent the message that Cole could indeed be hit.

    Devers currently has the 11th best WAR, 3.8, in the AL and the 8th best OPS, .939. He's also tied with Guerrero for most rbi's, 79. His DWAR is +.2.

    The Yankees are a shell of themselves right now and were only fair to middling before the injuries and Covid. It's looking more like a 2 team race. Winning that race is very important as it avoids one game and your in/out scenarios.

    I had the same thought but know of no way to confirm it.

    The only problem is Raffy is making himself very expensive.
    Championships since purchase by John Henry group: Red Sox 4 Yankees 1

    The Red Sox are 8-1 in their last 9 postseason games against the Yankees.

    Who are we, the Rays?

    If Bloom passes on him because he costs too much, he'll be run out of town faster than the British at Lexington and Concord

    We already traded one Hall of Famer, no?

    Those were very specific circumstances. There's a bigger problem if we get screwed by the luxury tax again. It's highly possible, yes, but I don't think Bloom would trade him unless he had to.
