Tanaka has been cooking lately. His stuff has had great action on it and there are a ton more swings and misses than he was getting earlier in the season. Seems the 10 day DL stint did him some good. Other than that HR in the 7th he was basically lights out.
Also, our long national nightmare is over, Aaron Judge did not strike out last night, finally ending the streak. Sheesh.
Severino on the bump tonight vs Jordan Zimmermann, gotta feel good about that matchup. It'd be great to mop the floor with Detroit the next two games, sweep or grab 2 out of 3 from Seattle and get some momentum going into a big 7-game homestand starting next Monday; 3 vs. CLE, 4 vs. BOS. Basically the biggest week of the season if they have any prayer of winning the AL East.
