Astros in 5.
Hurts to say as a Yankees fan but the Astros have too much offense.
For the Yankees to win a lot has to go right.
Judge has to figure out a way to be better against the slider because he’s going to see a lot of them. Or he can’t miss the fastballs when he gets them.
Tanaka and Severino have to win their games. And they can, but Tanaka has been bitten by the homer all year and Houston will do their best to elevate the ball.
I don’t know how much longer Didi can carry the Yankees but he’ll have to because Bird and Gardner are too streaky from the left side.
Judge is getting the blame for his lack of production and strikeouts, but Gary Sanchez hasn’t been any better. And when the Yankees face Keuchel (and maybe McCullers) he will have to make them pay.
Speaking of that, I wonder if Girardi puts Aaron Hicks in at 1B vs starting lefties. God knows Headley is useless.
