Yankees @ Mariners May 12-14, '25

[sutz]

Probables:

E. Hancock 1-1

C. Schmidt 0-1

B. Woo 4-1

M. Fried 6-0

Luis Castillo 3-3

W. Warren 2-2

Gonna need the bats to get hot again for this one.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

1-2. Not being doom and gloom, but the way our starting pitching is looking, Yanks are going to light us up.

 

[sutz]

Yeah. Still believe in Woo, but the rest of them are searching for something. Gonna start hearing "he's too old" and "he's done" about Castillo if he doesn't get his ass in gear.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Sucks because he looked damn for a couple starts, but even my boy Castillo is looking like he's losing a little something.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

Yep. The slump is here. Getting destroyed.

 

[Chapow]

Hancock throwing batting practice in the 5th. Yankees already with 7 runs on the board.

Our starting pitching has been pretty mediocre to average overall this season. Yes, obviously I understand that there have been injuries to Kirby and Gilbert, but it's still surprising to see this team have to rely on offense to win games.

 

[SoulfishHawk]

They were due. But....this part sucks

 

[Bobblehead]

Kirby and Logan can't come back fast enough.. hate being posers

 

[stack55]

What the hell? Bats are on the shoulders watching strikes.
Swinging at crap. I’ve only seen Schmit throw one ball on first
Pitch and can’t remember seeing a mariner swing at first pitch.

Lots of bats on the shoulder in that Bluejay series also.

 

[cymatica]

This is classic Mariners. As soon as they get your hopes up, especially with all this best team talk, they completely shatter any hope you had

 

[Crizilla]

JP looks half the weight of every Yankee

 

[stack55]

Yeah. Still believe in Woo, but the rest of them are searching for something. Gonna start hearing "he's too old" and "he's done" about Castillo if he doesn't get his ass in gear.

I’ve never been impressed by Castillo.

That’s hilarious I was thinking Judge made the field look small

 

[Sperrydogg]

Mariners can’t handle the double hitch these pitchers are doing. It’s weird it looks like a balk. Then angels were doing it too

 

[Sperrydogg]

I’ve never been impressed by Castillo.

He’s definitely never been as deadly as advertised

 

[Chapow]

1-2. Not being doom and gloom, but the way our starting pitching is looking, Yanks are going to light us up.

Sadly, you are correct. At least for tonight.

Hopefully Woo has a good outing tomorrow and the bats wake up or this could be a pretty easy sweep for the Yanks.

 

[stack55]

JP needs glasses.

 

[Crizilla]

Castillo Miller and now Hancock have not located (fastball) the past 3 games. Hancock made a good pitcher earlier on the 2nd Grisham homer but still not where it needed to be. Cheese all home stand.

 

[Chapow]

JP needs glasses.

Nah. JP has been really good this season. Looking like he did in 2023. The submariner/side arm lefty is just a ridiculously bad matchup for lefty hitters.

 

[Chapow]

Troy Taylor, on the other hand, has sucked very badly this season. He shouldn't be pitching at the major league level at this point.
