 This Yankees team and that lineup that we looked at we talked about it being whole and I think they find and they haven't been able to say that a lot this season so flash they go into that game feeling healthy feeling whole and saying let's get after it. Yeah they did exactly what they had to do up in Boston and to your point the lineup started to swing the bat a whole lot better but the next time the Yankee players will get to Yankee Stadium will be on Tuesday for a workout. You get all your playoff sweatshirts and you could be able to go through the motions and relax and have a good time knowing that Wednesday night Yankee Stadium will be off the hook again like it was last year. The Yankee fans really stepped up during the postseason last year. The Yankee players fed off of the excitement the intensity. That's what they're looking forward to Wednesday night. Yeah let's be honest we spent the last two weeks or so talking about whether or not the Yankees could get that home field advantage. So let's not underestimate it. John is absolutely right. If they had not held off the Oakland days they'd be getting on a plane. Well they maybe they would take a pit stop at New York but they'd be heading 3,000 miles to Oakland. Now they go from Boston back to New York. They know they're going to be home for a few days. They know they're playing in their stadium where they were 53 and 28 this season. And I think Bob you bring up a great point about the lineup. The fact that they're going to have everybody in there including their new additions McCutcheon and Voight guys who feel like they have been here a lot longer than a month. Or two months depending on which one we're talking about. And I think they go into that game with a ton of confidence as good as Oakland is as good as the Oakland's bullpen is. I still think the Yankees feel even more confident about their own situation. You know one of the things excuse me that you do as a player when you're getting ready for the postseason you look around the clubhouse and you start thinking to yourself who's going to be the guy that's going to be the hero either Wednesday night or moving forward. Is it going to be a Luke Voight who's riding this wave and enjoying every minute of it. Stan we're going to break down every bat every pitch as a New York Yankee in the postseason for the first time. Will he be the guy. So the fans are doing it. The media is doing it. But the players in the clubhouse are also looking around saying who's going to step up. You know the pitching situation to me is interesting too. The Yankees don't have a bad option in the three guys they're looking at. And for the A's if they hold what people think they're going to do start the opener and let's say a Liam Hendricks and then go to Mike Fiers. How does that play out. It's interesting. It's baseball in 2018. It's kind of weird to think that a guy who might start a postseason game isn't going to be out there very long. And he knows that. I think if you're the Yankees your approach has to be the same your approach has been all season. I abide by the David Cone School of pitching. And this is even if you're hitting. Go with your strengths. Go with what works for you. If you get too bottled up and worrying about what they're trying to do to you. I think you can clutter your mind. If you're a guy who likes to hit fastballs will go up there and try and hit fastballs. If you're McCutcheon and you're a patient hitter be as patient as long as you can be. I think the Yankees the last couple of weeks have shown what kind of team they can be. And I think that they head into that game feeling they can win those nine innings and see Boston again on Friday. Well we talked so much about the players but this game is going to be a bullpen game. Both of the managers are going to be a huge part of that. Bob Melvin with Oakland rookie manager Aaron Boone has to manage this game a little bit differently or a lot differently than he probably would a regular season game or even a division series or an ALCS. Every move he makes we're going to be breaking down here Wednesday night after the game. And you think back to last year Joe Girardi had a masterpiece of a managing game managing a game against the Minnesota Twins. Yeah the intensity in this game will be more than any other postseason game that comes next for these teams. Until you get to your next do or die game John is absolutely right. If the Oakland A score two runs in the first inning Yankee Stadium is going to be deflated and the Yankees hope that's temporary. Conversely if the Yankees jump out and score three or four runs their fans are going to get behind them. Oakland is going to have to deal with all of that. So everything that happens in this game is going to heighten the tension even more. I think the Yankees like most teams they'll go into that game with the script and we'll have to see how much they can adhere to that script. I still think that the first name in that script is Luis Severino. We'll see if I'm right. John keeps saying at the former catcher and he's right. It's about who finishes this game. Right. How many outs is each bullpen going to get. It could be 15 outs 18 outs. We don't know. That's why we're anxiously or eagerly waiting for Wednesday. .
