I guess this crazy schedule is really causing problems, huh? For the 3rd game in a row this team looked like absolute garbage. The offense is nowhere to be found, they're making unforgivable errors, and their bullpen seems to be thin every single day (I don't understand how that can happen with 19 pitchers on the staff right now). And last night it all combined to waste one of Bartolo Colon's best outings in a while. He looked like the early-season version of himself with great zip and location on his fastball, but it was all for naught.
You can throw credit Jered Weaver's way, and justifiably so. He was dynamite last night. But the Yanks still look lifeless right now. Somehow they need to find a way to shake out of it and start winning this weekend to take advantage of the Sawx and Rays beating up on each other.
Bare minimum, Jesus Montero needs to be in the lineup every game until they get things going again. He's the only player with some life in his bat right now.
