00:00Buy yourself segment, yes or no, we go on a relieving, whatever you want to call it.

00:04Let's start off, George, with Devin Williams will be the Yankees' closer when the playoffs start.

00:11Are you buying or are you selling?

00:12Well, first of all, I guess we should tell you the Yankee game tonight was rained out.

00:16Sort of breaking news there from our producer, Sam.

00:19Apparently they're going to be made up, the game will be made up as a doubleheader tomorrow.

00:22So a lot of Yankee baseball tomorrow.

00:24So my day is just ruined.

00:25Thank you so much for the Yankees.

00:27So another rain out here in the Northeast.

00:29A lot of rain here.

00:30There's a couple of doubleheaders today.

00:31Devin Williams, they don't have a choice anymore.

00:35All right.

00:36He needs to be, he can't be the closer.

00:38You go back to Luke Weaver here.

00:40That's not the question here, though.

00:43Hey, by the way, we're assuming here the Yankees make the playoffs.

00:46So in some ways, the answer here is, hey, sell.

00:49The Yankees may not make the playoffs.

00:50They're not a great team.

00:51They're barely a good team here.

00:54And they have suffered any other injuries to the starting pitching staff.

00:57I mean, come on.

00:57I know Carrasco pitched last night and he pitched well, but he's not a major league starter at

01:02this point.

01:03Stroman coming back.

01:03Who cares?

01:04Maybe he'll come back and he pitches well somewhere in June, but a lot needs to go right

01:09for the Yankees here.

01:10Devin Williams will be the closer for the Yankees in the playoff start.

01:12He shouldn't be it now.

01:13He should be removed here.

01:15I'm going to buy this.

01:16All right.

01:16I think he will be fixed.

01:18He's too good to be this awful all season long.

01:21What is the ERA?

01:2111.25?

01:22This is a joke, a bad joke at that.

01:25Now, I don't have Williams anywhere, so it's not killing me, but it's annoying as the Yankee

01:29fan that he can't get.

01:30I mean, it's just, it's awful.

01:31It's atrocious.

01:32But that being said, I'll buy this.

01:34He will be the closer if and when the Yankees make the playoffs.

01:37They'll get him fixed.

01:38They better.

01:39Right.

01:39I would buy it that he will be the closer.

01:42Even if he's not as bad as he is, he's simply due for just some natural regression,

01:48you know, an ERA up at 11, like even if he's not the closer he was years ago, then it'll

01:53still fall back down to earth just because of the variance of baseball.

01:56So I will certainly be buying that.

01:58And again, if you need to move Luke Weaver to that spot, mix things up, whatever it might

02:01be.
