Today on Pinstripe Alley - 4/17/21

Well, hopefully we’re close to rock-bottom. The Yankees are in a rut, and last night’s game was a catastrophe, replete with nightmarish defense and unruly behavior from the crowd. After a bullpen game gone awry, the Yankees will get their rotation back in order tonight, with Jordan Montgomery toeing the slab. He’ll look to bounce back after an uneven start against the Rays last weekend.

On the site, Matt will dig into the strange final season of Bill Dickey. We’ll also see Dan give us a preview of a pretty interesting pitching prospect in Glenn Otto, and Tom will analyze Gerrit Cole’s new toy.
