It sure would be nice if MLB would quit messing around with the ball.

Absolutely ridiculous.

I would just like to see the hitters work the count better as well. It's getting frustrating to see our starter be 20 pitches ahead after 4 becuase the hitters can't seem to battle. Just quick strike outs or pop outs. I know that it's early, but that's what I'd be focusing on

I think they mentioned at one point last night it was .120, dead last in the majors.

Their hitting is unsustainably bad, but their pitching is unsustainably good. Which ever regresses to the mean first will define their season and while it's not happening immediately we're starting to see signs that it will be the pitching.

I liked Katoh. Hopefully he doesn't get claimed.

Nestor Cortes pitching for the Yankees today too, I am not exactly bursting at the seams with confidence for this game.

Cortez has to be due for a bad outing. A journey man reliever doesn't turn into Pedro Martinez overnight. I hope.

So far Kikuchi looking good. Jays need to get him some run support cuz 2nd time through the order the Yankees will likely adjust
