Episode description

Another series loss for the Yanks. This weekend they dropped two of three at The Trop. Who cares, though, honestly? In this episode, we discuss the series, the rotation concerns, Cole's Cy Young candidacy, and Japanese star Yoshinobu Yamamoto. We also get into the excitement in the Yankee farm system and examine how the big league rookies look so far, too. Also, did DJ LeMahieu rediscover himself, or is it just a random hot streak?
