Today on Pinstripe Alley - 9/5/24

If Tuesday nights loss in Texas was maddening, yesterdays was just annoying.

Marcus Stroman and the bullpen came up small, Nathan Eovaldi blitzed the offense, and aside from an opposite-field shot from Juan Soto, the only scoring came in garbage time when the Rangers bullpen decided to piss off Bruce Bochy with a boatload of terrible pitches.

The Yankees have now lost three consecutive series to the Nationals, Cardinals, and Rangers.

Cripes.

Reflect on that on this offday before a three-game set in Wrigley against the Cubs .

Today on the site, Peter will break down a better Stroman showing for his Sequence of the Week feature, Sam will tackle the Rivalry Roundup, and Jake will handle 1999 Yankees Diary honors.

After that, well have a trio of pieces that touch on the same theme: Who should replace Clay Holmes as the Yankees closer? Jeremy will make the case for Luke Weaver, Nick P.

will argue for Tommy Kahnle, and Jeff will look into the closer-by-committee approach.

Offday 1.

Another closer alternative: Suppose the Yankees decide to shift Luis Gil.

I dont think this will happen, but just imagine it.

Would you be confident in his bullpen potential, or would you be too worried about his often-shaky control? 2.

Will you watch the NFL season opener tonight?.
