Pinstripe Alley open thread - 9/12/20

The sky is no longer falling, folks. The Yankees will have to do quite a bit more winning to fully wash out the taste of their recent 5-15 run, but a three-game winning streak has at least taken everybody out of crisis mode. They’re now three games above .500, in complete control of their playoff destiny, and in line to get a certain pair of superstar outfielders back soon.

Today, we’ll be talking a pair of contributors that shined even as the Yankees floundered. Tom will analyze J.A. Happ’s success over his last few starts, and Andrés will discuss what Miguel Andújar has managed to do over his brief hot streak. Erica will also give us a look at Clint Frazier, a Complete Player.
