Sweeny Murti | NY Yankees Insider

We are pleased to welcome Sweeney Murty, who covers Yankees and it's been a long time insider for annulling the flagship at our New York affiliate WFAN Sweeney ever since Aaron Boone got little explosive and pounded the table and got angry and said the Yankees were underperforming and that they had what it takes to be a better team. They have not lost what it seems is that moment on Saturday on Ron L Gore or Ron exactly well enough to make you hold up in a row so if they were born wanted non-a lot of time so that all the way back to you are dealt with at that they were going so badly looking for with them about getting right with anyway get parent John Gottwald scratch across Ron and even with the open on the kind of out of shape about sports right now their magical lot right for a month. Everything was going wrong isn't sustainable when you look at the pattern that they've had over the past couple of games. This is the best version of them all. This is what they're doing right now. The best version of them of a lot more players contributing off the way you have the better open.

I think that's the biggest thing is that there the bulk of this right back that Philip got a good thing to have a lead because I don't think they do at all you really want in good shape. The road actually held pretty amazing. So I think they're getting back only got Carlos for your back before Thursday's game at Oakwood Clay hold All-Star this year. I do back next was very start time will count mechanically as well as hopefully the back right direction. Back in one certainly felt like a lot of guys down the bottom more comfortable spot. They were remarkably healthy.

Everything gone right so they go a couple of victory their revenue couple problem various maybe back in the right direction to get them to get help your body is able to dig into the Sexton only allows to run to the Mets tonight. That's certainly a turnaround from what they've got from him so far.

How critical is key to their success moving forward. It was a great badly. It started when you probably want the white rabbit walked out of the first betting game dealt with one partner would have that one bad inning L Garrett Cole anybody they give up 345 run the way the court lately. Well that's true but I like that that much on on the had you wanted to out to get out of it first betting without a single run scored. That was huge in your 21st is literally the only handful of pictures away from just the lead and not getting out of the first inning so major problem for getting out of that getting into the getting in the position where they can win that game to the double play to end the second also a big deal that seem to fire him up. I don't know what she did to Sweeney that the Yankees brasserie in the Yankees clubhouse are paying attention to what Jordan Montgomery is doing with the Cardinals have a pretty long know what's happening right there haven't been on this well is actually great about the starting rotation, starting with for about lab returns now has actually been pretty good. They were scoring. And guess what Jordan Montgomery or Brandon, either.

So that's not the big big scoring run and click the check there. There were actually okay lately and started working so they could and if there bad timing that log the dirt on this one. Right now, while Montgomery is feeling and the God or hurt you that harassment later. Is the centerfielder they've been looking for pretty much don't last winter and happen to be right now and there they made the deal with a lot a large degree of competent that you get back in September. Will they do evil laugh, peace, and that whole defective shuffle Yankees made when they brought a picture beyond a conical left of Graber Taurus. Back to second base to try to get strong middle, very difficult to get you last there there judge back right you'll wear you the better fit, it will move San Carlos that the back would be a troll where you look better fit and the big that they are believe shouldn't really become a lot closer to being ready when you close the Labor Day you're not thinking about the Labor Day but you really feel you can get a better position to get himself ready that date so we'll see how that goes. Of course, Sweeney Murty is the Yankees reporter for our New York affiliate and Yankees flagship WFAN in New York and is with us after hours on CBS sports radio. The Yankees obviously has set this unbelievable pace and standard for themselves in the first half, so maybe it wasn't realistic to expect them to keep that up. However, the fans actually were booing Brian Cashman and other members of the front office at the day in which their retiring Paul O'Neill's number over the weekend. How were the crowd.

These last couple nights, then the crowd were playoff caliber of the lab the largest crowd laughed. The bad nine years.

Wow, all there are a lot of it but thank you out there the first point out that much. Firstly, here is a type you had.

I think it is important for some of the newer players in Montauk.

Quite bossy to go but not the support that perform the run big out what the got the big out parchment got a big out not feel that kind of that. So to be able to perform that I think was helpful. Good crowd big crowd, energetic crowd got that probably play little bit of focus and get in the right direction.

A massive war there at the end when they get out of that bases-loaded GM to wrap up the game in the night that Aaron Scheid's piece of this is so intriguing right because it seems like once they got in some trouble and and only 110 of 30 games then people stopped asking about the future because they're more concerned about the present. I like what he had to say. I guess it would've been Monday night when he hit a homerun and someone asked about a drought. He said homerun drought you're talking about. He continues to handle this all in stride.

Even though we know a couple months down the road. Regardless of what happens there is this big question looming about their star in the base of their franchise was a good retort for him to say that but I think it is one thing from his homerun in whatever rate you want to make it to 6177 through the pointing off of that all year.

So I think that's probably another way of them deflecting that they homerun drought but make no mistake, you'll dominate you sent you, you need he knows how this plays that a contract year. Knows all about that he knows you and I game without one, how he portrays it, and how what he's actually knowing I think are two different but that's what you need to get through this and not even answer the other side of my own run out of my conversation the other day about stuff that no about chasing homerun record then we need to know these questions are here. They're coming and it will probably do a good entertainment especially time for the team is not as noncompliant well so you know what you want. That's not a court they need him to get going.

Sweeney Murty covers the Yankees for their flagship and our New York affiliate WFAN is after hours on CBS sports radio three straight wins for the eggs. They now sit at 76. The winds and some of the questions I've been asked about the team would've been just unheard of in the first half of the season like Aaron Boone status but I keep hearing chatter about it to say for the sake of argument that they do Peter out in the playoffs and don't end up in the World Series and he brought back in your opinion or would they make a change in your contract. In the lab is not going anywhere does not operate that way more.

You came to know you don't don't hey got the management through your love…… There aren't very many that operate that yet you got very long time.

They decided my ear when I got down around the wildcard game they still like the direct their working with Howard as their manager. I think everything that set the overall record and some of the reasons behind why they have. They have legitimate reason to be on the not complete this guys out there right now you're not worth trying to say. What happens if they lose here like I you have to get there for only you can't listen. Yeah, I think maybe they might fire the manager really going to lose 40 games in a row now, so I left it. We can paint what happened. Like I know I can tell you that there is not a lot of momentum for the Yankees to fire a manager after the first year all is contract because they decide to bring back after what they went through last year. Season with they did not get all the long and lost the first and only playoff game so when they are looking like there is a paste that okay to reduce they maybe go only when you want nothing but tell me the that is going to signal them that they changed what their course of action history for the last couple of decades now and like they think you'll have to paint the picture for me. I can see it play out all yeah this guy's job is in jeopardy because nothing indicates that the questions must amuse you chatter because it certainly comes up almost every time. This team stubs it's tell Dan because from a generation who watched George Steinbrenner do this and what will frankly how Steinbrenner talked about this a year ago when he explained no not everything my dad did that work for was well received. Got criticized for. Let's remember that there was when the announcement was made, and you saw the guys watching one I think of the captain you thought some of the mystery of George Steinbrenner and Vera leading up Derek Jeter and the rest of that diet became what it was announced in 1990, the George baseball crowd at Yankee Stadium she feared he was the problem here he was going to be suspended so I think we forget about that is way of changing managers and change everything work. It was the ability the work and that you know I think that get lost nowadays not want now.

Very frankly flat dear he doesn't respond the way his father did were brighter reason you just remind you it didn't always work is often criticized yes Sweeney Murty is with us here after our CBS sports radio before I let you go. What are a couple of other storylines either individual or team around the majors that you're really interested in seeing play out the next five weeks of this regular-season Orioles trying to make the playoff know.

I think that thing here where the American League with Houston currently open the best record yet you can jump up there again and figure out a restful home feel the way I think that's very important. The central is really right now with Minnesota blood and in Chicago really fighting there and and only one of them making the playoffs. At this rate with no way always games and maybe three, of Seattle, all the wildcard mix.

That's all pretty interesting. Here, the nationally because the brain to start like defending champions again, a great photo gap on them that God no the doctors are ignoring this idea that you can't find 115 what is right there going at that right now but there are still there extra around the next three games to play the file doesn't mean that your your event. The World Series salt. There's a lot it changes no there's still so much the changes you get the playoff start date to go to the winners all got a game that Sweeney Murty covers the Yankees for their flagship and our New York affiliate WFAN and Yankees have now put together this modest three game win streak and 49,000+ on hand, along with Sweeney at Yankee Stadium to watch Tuesday night's victory over the Mets.

You can find them on twitter@Yankees WFAN. It's always good to grab a couple minutes.

Sweeney, thank you so much
