As long as there is no rain on the shores of Lake Erie, tonight is what Yankee fans have been waiting for over a month - sweating through the trade deadline of July 31st - until at 3:00 pm Monday it was breaking news by Jack Curry that Brian Cashman had made the deal for Sonny Gray. In 50 shades of grey travel unis Sonny Gray will make his Yankee debut against the Cleveland Indians. The big question now is will butterflies, the excitement of his first start for his childhood team get the better of him OR can he pitch his style? On top of that the Yankees ;need to step up on O - Judge, Sanchez & Holliday need their swagger - no more swinging at bad pitches while letting good ones go by. Fundamental baseball - take what the pitcher throws and go with it - stop over swinging. There is too much at stake. Cash & the front office have given us the arms now step up to plate - it's up to the players not the brass, not the manager, not the coaches but the guys who go out on the field and play the game.
