The lead-off walk wasn't enough for Taylor after he got the DP ball.

Is it wrong to have mixed feelings seeing Taylor get out of that inning? On the one hand... lead held! On the other, I don’t want anything to encourage Cora.

And now Cora brings in Taylor with a lead. I don't want to hear the "We need to see what we have in Josh" excuse later, either. We all know what we have have in Josh. Ditto Brice. Or as I like to call him, Josh "Actually, he has 10 K/9, a reasonable walk rate, and a 3.38 ERA/3.20 FIP if you throw out the first series of the seeason, and by the way, he was really good in 2019 too" Taylor.

If he gets another one this game the whole team will be wearing pink rouge next game.

I prefer Josh “average fastball, average slider, below average command, results may vary” Taylor.

Get you someone who loves you as much as Ottavino loves putting the leadoff hitter on base.

If he's holding the bat out there flat while he gets hit, isn't that equivalent to a swing?

Ottavino gives me the same anxiety that Kimbrel gave me.... same damn vibes....

Josh "at least he's not Ottavino" Taylor I get on Taylor, but big picture, I applaud a guy with average stuff who gets as much out of it as he can. Watching a guy with great stuff getting the least out of it is infuriating, though.

They didn't steal it but it feels that way. Couple of big hits and a nice Barnes close.

Barnes just like two whole other levels. Crazy how awesome he is.

Umpires hand two in a row to the Yankees. MLB needs robot calls and strikes more than anything else.
