Deck chairs on the Titanic.

Yankee fans finally got what they were asking for: A re-arranged lineup!

Explain this lineup to me vs. a right-handed pitcher.

  • Sanchez batting third.
  • Frazier in the lineup.
  • Urshela batting sixth.

It probably doesn't matter much. This lineup can't hit good pitchers and this team can't beat playoff-caliber teams.

I'm happy that strikeout machines Judge and Stanton are at least broken up ... but if you're just going to put Sanchez between them (batting third?), then you're just making it easy for the righty strikeout pitchers that come out of the bullpen late in the game.
