The Yankees' bats finally wake up

The New York Yankees beat the Oakland A’s 7-3 behind a newly awakened offense and included home runs from Aaron Judge, Anthony Rizzo, and Juan Soto! Judge and Rizzo seem to be getting into a groove with Rizzo hitting his second home run in as many nights. Judge also looked better hitting his home run to right field and also smacking a single right later in the game. We discuss the game and Clarke Schmidt’s ‘third time through the order’ problem that he can’t seem to get past. Then, Brian Cashman talked to The Athletic and had a couple of quotes about the offense—specifically Judge, Rizzo, and Soto—and another one about Soto. Brian wasn’t happy with either quote, and he explains why. Cashman also talked about the lack of depth plaguing the Yankees infield, but Stacey doesn’t think that’s Cashman’s fault. He couldn’t even foresee all of the injuries that had hit the backup infielders. Then we preview the final game of the four-game set with Oakland between Nestor Cortes and Alex Wood and give you an injury update on DJ LeMahieu and Gerrit Cole. Brian Cashman interview: https://theathletic.com/5442633/2024/04/24/yankees-brian-cashman-juan-soto-dj-lemahieu-aaron-judge/Join the LOY Insiders Club! https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonyankeesWhat is the insider's club? https://youtu.be/BItWi-kbIJY?t=1468Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCH5857VCyYLAzsWr9vHk4sQSupport Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!DoorDashGet all your Mother’s Day gifts, all in one place and get 50% off your next order, up to $15 when you spend $15+ on your next flower, convenience, grocery, or retail order now with code LOCKEDONMLB.
