Not that big of a deal. While his greatest post-season feat was with the Yankees, Reggie played 10 years in Oakland, 5 with the Yankees, and 5 with the Angels, during which time he narrowly avoided being brainwashed into killing the Queen of England.Ragnar Danneskjoldd said:
Reggie must drive yankees fans crazy
its like berkman laying for the cardinals, or berkman playing for the yankees, or berkman playing for the rangers.

Just a reminder to those who interact with Jankee fans:
The player who benefitted the most from the cheating was Marwin Gonzales. He signed a big contract after 2017 and has been a flop ever since. He is now on the Jankee roster
Altuve hit around .370 on the road in 2017 and around .310 at MM. Hmmmmm
Altuve hit a belt-high hanging slider off Chapman in 2019. Chapman couldn't throw his fastball within 2 feet of the strike zone during that at-bat, nor Springer's before it. Sit on a slider, hammer a hanger.
Cole was an Astro during the Jankee alleged buzzer crisis. Hmmm, they must have not really cared when they signed him away as a free agent. He is now on the Jankee roster.

I would guess he's long mop-up duty if a game gets our of hand or the need a middle relief guy after a lot of bullpen usage.Mathguy64 said:
They are rolling the dice with Montas. He hasn't pitched in a month and hasn't been good at all since being traded to NY. I can't imagine he's there for anything but pen duty.
The one where they got in trouble and had to listen to the game via their version of Dave South was absolute gold.Teddy Perkins said:Always a fun series when the Astros and Yankees get together. Good for baseball. pic.twitter.com/e3UkZWDcF6

Yep. Given the potential for 8 games in 9 days for them and the state of their pen they need any arm they can find.

Bookies like us more.
Fangraphs had us at 56.2% before game 5. It'll probably drop very slightly.

I saw an interview with either our first base coach or third base coach. Anyways, he basically said he heard the Yankees complaining about the whistling and decided to f with them. It 100% worked.Nino Brown said:bobinator said:
Lol just hide random blinking lights around the ballpark. Just absolutely gaslight the Yankees into insanity. I love this plan.
Man I don't think I've seen you on any posts since Acie Law days. And I agree with you. I think in 2019 when Rays were complaining about whistling, the players were just ****ing with them to get them rattled and whining.

I don't know who the dude was in the back, but he absolutely should have popped that champagne and sprayed everyone when Altuve took Chapman deep.
