Podcast: Ben Kabak

Ben Kabak of River Ave. Blues joins me to talk about the Yankees’ chances of making the postseason and the bullpen decisions Joe Girardi has made while fighting for a playoff spot.

Forty games to go. The Yankees begin their homestand on Tuesday night 7 1/2 games back in the division and 3 games back for the second wild card. It’s likely going to take somewhere between 25 and 27 wins for the Yankees to make the playoffs (or playoff in the case) and that would mean a 25-15 (.625), 26-14 (.650) or 27-13 (.675) finish. There hasn’t been anything to make anyone believe the Yankees at 63-59 (.516) are capable of going on a miracle run over the next six weeks, but if they are going to, it starts with a five- or six-win homestand.

Podcast: John Jastremski

John Jastremski of WFAN joins me to talk about Joe Girardi’s recent bullpen management and what will happen to Brian Cashman if the Yankees miss the playoffs again.

New York Yankees vs Baltimore Orioles

The Yankees’ trip to Baltimore didn’t exactly go as I had hoped or planned. After the rainout gave the Yankees a needed off day to regroup after three straight losses, I thought the postponement of Tuesday’s game would only help the team for Wednesday. When the Yankees jumped out to a 2-0 lead and with Michael Pineda dealing in his return from the disabled list, I thought I would be right. But then in the eighth inning, the game unraveled and here we are one week removed from the Yankees’ last win.

WFAN host John Jastremski joined me to talk about Joe Girardi’s recent bullpen management, the emotions starting to build as we near the end of Derek Jeter’s career and what will happen to Brian Cashman if the Yankees miss the playoffs again.
