Takeaways
The Offense/Defense
The Yankees offense was silent today as everyone holds their breath on Judge. The Yankees slept walked through this game and you could feel the vibe was off all day.
I’ll give Suarez credit because he was dealing today, but the offense really did not do much. There were some innings where there were chances to come through, but the Yankees couldn’t.
Stanton did hit a homer and he continues his hot hitting.
Here is the latest on the Yankees defense:
Then there was this:
Oh so that's Ryan McMahon defense

Starting Pitching Analysis
Marcus Stroman was awful today. He did not give length and he gave up four runs. Safe to say that Stro has regressed to the means.
Bullpen Usage
Yerry De Los Santos was the first out of the bullpen and worked 1.2 innings only giving up 1 run (yes, I mean only). Jonathan Loaisiga was the next out and was able to strand the bases loaded. Next out was Allan Winans and he gave up a two-run homer before I could blink. Then, he could not get anybody out and a costly error by Jazz led to 2 more Phillies runs.
The Yankees' bullpen has a 5.20 ERA since June 1.
Only the Nationals, Twins and Rockies have worse bullpen ERAs.

The Yankees need to trade for relief help ASAP. Here are some names I suggest:
Up Next
Next Game: July 27th, 2025 (vs. PHI)
Probable Starters: RHP Zack Wheeler (9-3. 2.39) vs. LHP Carlos Rodón (10-7, 3.10)
Series Outlook: The Yankees look to avoid the sweep.
