One fan asked how the team could lose to a 40-year-old Justin Verlander. It doesn't matter if he's 40 or 20; Verlander is still one of the best pitchers in baseball, and he was dominant tonight.cason@CasonAllen14@Yankees How are you going to let 40 year old Verlander carve you up20@Yankees How are you going to let 40 year old Verlander carve you upAnother fan said this loss hurt. Sandy ◡̈ 🇮🇹@NYYSandy@Yankees FUCK THIS HURTS MAN9@Yankees FUCK THIS HURTS MANOne fan even said they want the Yankees to acquire more offensive players by the deadline after this performance. This is a bit of a bold take. The New York Yankees still have arguably the best lineup in all of baseball. The regular season is long, and games like this will happen.Tommy@1tzTommy@Yankees Can we trade for some more offensive pieces at the deadline? 1 run against a good team isn’t gonna cut it@Yankees Can we trade for some more offensive pieces at the deadline? 1 run against a good team isn’t gonna cut itOverall, the Yankees still have the best record in all of baseball at 52-19, and the Astros are a really good ball club.
