Today on Pinstripe Alley - 7/17/23

It’s the first full week of the second half, and the vibes are the same as the first half. The Yankees had every chance to open things up with a solid road series victory, and instead suffered one of their more devastating regular season defeats of recent vintage. There’s no rest for the weary, though, as they had to pack up their things last night and move west, from Denver to Anaheim, as they take on Shohei Ohtani and the Angels tonight.

We soldier on on the site today, starting with Andrew’s run down on the rest of the AL action from yesterday. Later, Peter will preview the three-game set with the Angels, and Sam will write the next entry in the 1998 Yankees diary. And in the afternoon, John looks at the possibility of re-acquiring old friend Jordan Montgomery via trade.
