Yankees 2, Rays 12: Plenty of blame to go around in embarrassing loss
Wendell Cruz-USA TODAY Sports On a day when the Yankees needed to come up big, they came up very small. On a day when the Yankees were tasked with a big game, most Yankees came up small this afternoon in the Bronx. Starter Jordan Montgomery was battered around to the tune of seven well-earned runs allowed, and the Bombers’ bats managed only four hits off of five Tampa Bay pitchers. The game was an unmerciful beating at the hands a team that is simply on a different level than the Yankees. I noted in the game thread earlier today that this Yankee team absolutely...

NYY vs. TB: Jordan Montgomery vs. Shane Baz
Photo by Dustin Satloff/ The Yankees look to nail down a Wild Card spot once again this afternoon in the Bronx. For those of you who may be too young to remember (or too old to have that good of a memory) the 1996 Yankees had a motto coined by second baseman Mariano Duncan: “We play today, we win today – dassitt.” Heck, it was so popular they made t-shirts and drinkware with the saying on it. I’m claiming the copyright for the motto of the 2021 Yankees: “Under no circumstances will we ever make anything easy, and regardless of the outcome of today’s game,...

NYY @ BOS: Jordan Montgomery vs. Eduardo Rodriguez
Photo by Sarah Stier/ The Yankees for a primetime sweep as a battle of the lefties closes out the season series with the Red Sox. Well that was an exciting game last night, wasn’t it? Just as it looked like the Yankees offense had once again wasted a strong effort by the pitching staff, Giancarlo Stanton deposited a first-pitch fastball onto the street behind the Monster to power the Yankees to a 5-3 victory. With a series win already secured, the Yankees go for the sweep — and sole position of fist place in the AL Wild Card race. Jordan Montgomery (6-6, 3.55 ERA,...

Breaking down Eduardo Rodríguez’s starts against the Yankees in 2021
Photo by Billie Weiss/Boston Red Sox/ The Yankees have struggled to score against the Boston left-hander this season. Tonight, the Yankees finish their season series with the Boston Red Sox, as Jordan Montgomery takes on Eduardo Rodríguez in a battle of the lefties at Fenway Park. On paper, this looks like a fantastic matchup for the Yankees. With an ERA of 3.55 and a FIP of 3.49, Montgomery has genuinely been one of the best No. 2 starters in baseball this year, ranking 20th in fWAR among starting pitchers who have thrown at least 140 innings with 3.5. Rodríguez, on...

Luis Severino makes first MLB appearance in almost two years as Yankees beat Rangers
On the 21st night of September, the Yankees played a game so harmonious, that Earth, Wind & Fire would be proud, beating the Rangers 7-1. Starting pitcher Jordan Montgomery kept a steady groove all night, while Giancarlo Stanton, Joey Gallo and Aaron Judge each bashed face-melting home runs.

NYY vs. TEX: Jordan Montgomery vs. Dane Dunning
Photo by Greg Fiume/ The bombers turn to their lanky lefty to keep the pressure on in the AL Wild Card race. It was closer than it needed to be, but the Yankees pulled off a much-needed win last night in the series opener against the Rangers. With the Blue Jays also losing to the Rays, the Bombers now sit a half-game out of the second AL Wild Card spot. Can they keep the pressure on with another win tonight? Jordan Montgomery has been largely excellent for the Yankees in his first full season since his 2017 rookie campaign. In fact, you could make the argument that he...

Today on Pinstripe Alley - 9/21/21
Photo by Jim McIsaac/ The 20 games in 20 days stretch heads toward its end. If the Yankees want to have a strong chance at the Wild Card, they probably have to sweep away this Rangers team. Of course, similar things could have been said about the recent series with Baltimore and Cleveland, and here we are. The Yankees did narrowly take the first game of the set, and they have the pitching advantage in the last two games of the series. Tonight, they’ll have Jordan Montgomery, whose latest start was predictably strong, and predictably squandered thanks to a...
