Sweep their asses.


Or at least 2-1.

Greatly prefer 6:10 starts

Hurry up and get here game

How about we clobber Carlos Rodón so that our shite bullpen has plenty of margin for error. Crooked numbers, fellas.

It's a four game series. But nevertheless, I'd still be happy with 2 wins. Yankees/Dodgers in the same week. Doesn't get more fun than that. If we come out of this week with 3 wins, I think we all should be thrilled.

Judge AND Stanton are sitting for them...to start.

Yuck the Fankees!!!

Text me when it goes down. I’ll help. Sitting in the DC

Sure feels like Tuesday go royals PBJ

Cmon ump...

Not to be a Pete, but this ump sucks

Absolutely

I swear, automated umps can't come soon enough. I get that the Yankees are just about the most patient team in the league, and always have been. They make pitchers work, but I they also seem to always get the calls, and when you've got a pitcher who works the corners like Lugo, you gotta call the pitches that are strikes, strikes. The Yankees don't need any additional ****ing help. Goddammit.

Seriously Lugo just threw what, 5 strikes that were called balls. He was PAINTING the zone and the umpire just stood there. It had better go both ways.

It's ****ing bush league horseshit, and I'm sick of it. They've been doing it in tennis for how long, 20 something years? On shots that are way over 100mph. This shit should have been implemented in baseball a long time ago.

Alright, first 1-2-3 inning for Lugo, now get some runs.

Poor Vinnie and his big toe.

Vinnie?

Hunter I mean.

I’ll never understand that. Put together a great AB only to take strike 3 right down the middle.

Lugo is ass tonight.

Son of a bitch

Not giving him the bottom of the zone was going to be tough.

Damn, this sucks so far

Or the top. Or the left. Or the right.

It's not going to go both ways. One pitcher is a Yankee and the other is Seth Lugo.

Is this just a case of bad umps or is Lugo simply reverting to the mean?

He was NOT good in his last start at Cleveland either.

Rodon totally pushing our shit in so far

Some of both. Ump was tight in the 1st but let’s not pretend Lugo has been on tonight.

Gotcha. I’m not watching, so was just curious.

The two runs in the first were absolutely helped by a very tight zone. Just go and look. Ump clearly missed 5 or 6 strikes. That's a lot to overcome in one inning when you don't throw straight gas and make your living on the corners. It's not like the Yankees are bombing away on Lugo. They've had a few hard hits, but they've all gone for singles, several of which were worm burners.

Against the Tribe, that was just weird. He was CRUISING through the first 3 innings, then Cleveland started making him work, and got a couple of timely homers. I'd say that's mostly just baseball for you when you're up against a hot team.

Regression was inevitable, but going up against Cleveland and the Yankees isn't gonna make it easy on anyone.

Guardians and Yankees are also very good teams.

Dammit Freddy, that's twice... Ugh.

Neither the ump nor Lugo matter if Fermin is gonna keep ****ing up any shot at momentum we have on offense.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't think very many teams have won before when scoring 0 runs.

Stream isn't working 90% of the time and even whenit is, it's the Yankees bundleoffiresticks announcers. Going to bed and fully expect to wake up in the morning toread about a walk off HR from Sal

This has been working well for me...

Someone can fact check me but I believe you are correct.

From the Craft & Draft view Rodon not struggling against this bizarre lineup. Like, we’re pinch hitting MJ fir Renfro in the 6th… throw up the white flag?

Renfroe fouled 2 balls off the same foot in the same AB. They took him out after that.

Just as he was heating up, too

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">OF Hunter Renfroe exited tonight&#39;s game with a fracture in his left big toe.</p>&mdash; Kansas City Royals (@Royals) <a href="https://twitter.com/Royals/status/1800342852972757408?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 11, 2024</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Damn that sucks.

That stinks. And just like you said, just as he was heating up. Drew Waters getting called up?

Lugo hung in and at least gave a respectable performance. Unfortunately looks like we needed a CY like performance from him tonight.

Nice job Lugo. Got totally boned in the first inning, but a very solid outing, too bad Rodon has just been better.

Go royals

Well at least Fermin can’t GIDP this at bat.

Atta boy

There we go Freddy. Little bit of redemption there must feel good.

Good hit. Let's see some more..

4-1 now, Yankees after 7 full.

Calling the corners now? **** this ****ing ump to the moon.

Oh Maikel... That was dreadful.

Bob with a steak

There we go Bobby...

Maikel swung at that ball that was about 2.5" out of the zone. LMAO

OK, within 2 runs. Keep it rollin...

HERE WE GO ROYALS HERE WE GO

4-2 now. Our half of the 8th.

Way too many shit at bats that inning to actually mount a comeback.

A Salvydong would be nice or not

Oh Salvy, Salvy, Salvy....

I think you meant 2.5'.

Salvy now 4 for his last 24 with 10 K’s.

Dude is on the struggle bus.

Fans really have no clue how to track a fly ball. Lol.

Holy shit, how was that a strike?

Ugh.... Vinnnie just missed that... and of course, to the deepest part of the field.

lol at strike 1 on MJ

Because this umpire sucks the sweat from a dead man's balls, that's how. What a ****ing disgrace.

It's pretty gross to listen to a Royals Yankees game and it sounds like they are in New York as much as it does KC.

The ump's bad strike zone in the first inning was the difference

That umpire needs a good kick in the nuts and rolled off the field.
