The first five hitters in the Yankees’ lineup last night would make quite the offensive line, and are, sad to say, one of the most fun things currently happening in baseball. The Yankees have done it. They’ve become outrageously fun. They’ve figured out that all they need to do is send five straight giant human beings to the plate and I will lose my mind. I’m in on the Yankees. I can’t believe it. I’m in on the Yankees.
But I still don’t like Brett Gardner. And I will be furious anytime they don’t use the jumbo package.
