The Bronx Pinstripes Show - Yankees MLB Podcast

The Yankees head into the All Star Break 4.5 games back of Boston with a record of 62-33\. We discuss the series split in Cleveland, why Luis Severino struggled on Thursday, the Yankees hitting Corey Kluber once again, Brett Gardner/Tyler Wade comparisons, the rollercoaster that is Miguel Andujar’s defense, and second guessing Boone for using Chad Green in multiple innings on Sunday. Mailbag questions include if we are worried about Severino, if the Yankees should acquire pitching if they can’t trade for a front-end starter, Tyler Skaggs and Andrew Heaney from the Angels, the Cardinals potentially selling, and grading Aaron Boone after a full half season managing.
