Once again, a reminder, in Rizzo, the
#Yankees
have not had a first baseman at that level since Tino.

Cash traded Caleb Smith and Garrett Cooper to Miami in the winter between the 2017 and 2018 season for International bonus money and a Class-A pitcher he insisted be in the deal. Kid was Michael King.

Why do people, and some teams, believe the

A serious question. Pete Rose was banned from baseball and denied admission to the Hall of Fame because he bet on the sport. Now sports betting is legal. Ought Rose be elected, or remain banned?

If

Jory Gallo is 9-for-44 in 17 games with the Dodgers, with three homers and 20 strikeouts. He, however, is raking according to Twitter. One of many things we enjoy about all this interaction.

Cespedes now immortalized. First NL DH to hit a home run.

Rosenthal confirms Andujar has asked Yankees to trade him. Gallo just struck out against a kid making his fifth start. Ridiculous.

What is the problem with Rizzo, folks? Excellent defense, power, good in clubhouse. Hurt by COVID in 2021. Glad he’s back.

If the Yankees would have won four of the 10 games Holmes has blown, they'd have a 4-game lead in the AL East instead of being tied for first. That's only four. Amazing what Holmes has cost this team.

Hicks now 4-for-41. Hitting .115 in day games. Why is he playing at this point?

Thursday Boston SP Josh Winckowski said the Yanks were just another lineup after stating Wrigley Field was just another ballpark. He's just another pitcher who gave up six runs.

MLB owners and Manfred have a choice. End this nonsense or become irrelevant in the face of fans turning to other attractions, led by upcoming college basketball conference tournaments and March Madness.

According to a few reports, both Boston and Atlanta were also interested in Matt Carpenter. From his comments, it seems the
#Yankees
were easily his top choice. He now has one more home run than Freddie Freeman.

456
Two things have to happen in 2022: 1. We finally get rid of Covid. 2. The

win a World Series.

So the Yanks and Mets have the same record. The difference in divisions.
17
37

Kyle Higashioka, if he bats 500 times, has a legitimate shot of hitting 20 home runs. Again, if you doubt this, check his stats at Trenton and SWB in the upper minors.
84

436
Girardi was outstanding in the booth this series. He also works for the Cubs’ Marquee Network and not sure how the schedules match, but hope he’s on YES as much as possible.

Gallo needs to sit a few games. Marwin can play corner OF.

Mike Trout is the best player in the AL, and likely in MLB. DJ is the AL MVP. He has changed his team. Trout’s team is 64-72 and has lost 8-of-10 and will not make the postseason. A 6,554367 WAR does not change what is reality ad far as MVP.
171
74
388
Marwin Gonzalez may turn out to be one of the best signings of the offseason. Switch hitter with some power who plays six positions. Hits in clutch. Goif job by Cash and
#Yankees
.
67
17
403
So Gleyber was 0-for-11 in this series and Marwin can't get a shot. Again, why is Marwin on the team? Play like this in Detroit and Yanks will get swept.

Holmes was a pleasure to watch after two nights of Chapman. Pass the torch.

Do not see the
#Yankees
trading Andujar at this point. His offense, when he's healthy, equals or surpasses Josh Donaldson. A spot will be found for him on the 2020 team, be it super-utility or DH.
40
20
358
Cashman's goal was to improve the team's defense and add a bat. IKF is a better defensive SS than Seager, Correa or Story - and a better fit. Donaldson improves 3B defense and brings the added bat. Catching, with Higgy and Trevino, is miles ahead. All makes sense.
101
11
360
Gary Sanchez's agent blaming the Yankees for his problems - he hit .205 in Minnesota in 2022 and was fair, at best - behind the plate, is ludicrous. There is no interest in his client because he's not good.
64
20

Cole is 1-6 against the Rays. That needs to change today.

Pirates announcers just congratulated the Yanks' Clay Holmes with making the AL All-Star Team

Yanks have Effross for five years. Let him work into the closer role. He's not phased by any of this.
45
12
344
Everyone wants to see the
#Yankees
put up hits and homers, but they are 20-9 due to pitching, defense and improved his with RISP. Catchers are also much better with framing. This team is built much better than 2021.
62
22
337
Honestly think the
#Yankees
have a solid shot at both the AL East and a run in the postseason. The defense is improved, the bullpen is deep, the offense has many options. The team assembled players who fit. That is my feeling with Opening Day coming soon. That is all.
58
22
339
Put it this way, if the
#Yankees
win 2-of-3 in every three-game road series in 2022, they will win the AL East easily. Yep, the offense needs to get going consistently, but 2-of-3 on the road is more than satisfactory.
102

333
Matt Carpenter brings Yanks more versatility. Plays several positions. Clutch hitter with Cardinals.

Sending down Marianaccio and riding Abreu, who had a hand in losing four games on this trip, was one of the worst moves in recent years. Correct that Monday.

After Minnesota released David Ortiz in 2002, Boston signed him and became a star. Yankees passed. George Steinbrenner commented "my biggest mistake" was not signing Ortiz.

Yankees start a challenging road swing tonight. Two in Atlanta, four in Oakland and three in Anaheim. They get through this, they are in clover.

Sanchez and Torres - the lackadaisical duo - in the lineup tonight. Part of the reason the
#Yankees
are faltering.
46
14
283
To all the disgruntled
#Yankees
fans. The plan, obviously, was to bolster the defense and fund decent stopgaps with the prospects available by 2023. They could have signed Correa to a 4-year deal, but chose not to. Honestly, Honestly, I like the team heading into 2022,

Save 10 for Clay Holmes, whose ERA is 0.30. Acquisition of the Year in 2021.

Saw Clay Holmes in Pittsburgh. Amazing what the Yanks have done with him. Shaved his beard and tweaked his delivery. Another Cashman under-the-surface pickup.

Passan reports Judge turned down a 7/213 package that totaled $230 million. IMO, $30 million through age 37 is fair.

If Jasson and Wells can hit consistently, and Rizzo is back healthy next spring, that solves the lefty problem. Still would add Bellinger due to his versatility.
46
12
268
Jordan Montgomery was 9-7, 3.88 n 29 starts in 2017 as fifth starter for
#Yankees
. If he is back, and ought to be, fits right in as fifth starter for 2020.
17

Really like Andujar playing 3B, 1B and LF in consecutive games. The
#Yankees
will likely end up with a Ben Zobrist with power. Not bad, folks.
20
19
246
It's still early, but must congratulate the
#BlueJays
. First they started with Judge, then couldn't shut up about German. Meanwhile, they are stinking the joint out at home - forgetting how many mound visits - and have fallen into last place in the AL East. Great week, guys,

Everybody knows I am a Boone defender, but if others were available, don't care if Abreu was rested. Marianaccio needs to be here instead of Abreu.
43
10
239
What failed the
#Yankees
in 2021? Wasn't the pitching - third in the AL with a 3.73 ERA. It was the offense and clutch hitting. Hoping the club fixed the latter and the players perform.
55

239
Since the season was declared over in many Twitter quarters - and the calls for firing Cash and Boone - the Yankees have gone 21-4.
35

236
Why do so many on here rip IKF? Is it Correa Envy, Seagar Envy? The guy is terrific player. Power is not his role.
64
8
238
If you are conflicted at the plate, as Hicks said he is, a week or two at SWB might be in order.
36
7
233
Some of the rabid criticism we see of IKF on here is ludicrous. In 239 chances, he has made 9 errors. His play has helped tighten up the Yanks' IF defense and hits with RISP:. He isn't perfect as well, but is filling his role well.
65
14
231
Aaron Hicks hit 27 homers and drove in 79 runs in 2018. He also exhibited a terrific throwing arm. But he looks like a player with greatly diminished skills due to injury, so the Yanks, with his contract, are stuck.
72
14
229
If
#MLB
misses even a part of the season, it will be a disaster for the entire sport. Manfred will be remembered as the commissioner who ruined the game. USFL, MLS, likely MILB, NFL training g camps. All with fan-friendly prices. $250 for a Yankee Stadium ticket? Really?

Yanks are lucky Tampa had a terrible week and Toronto stumbled. All teans run into slumps. Benintendi just the first move. Reel in Castillo and a reliever like DRob.
25
13
221
You may disagree, but the
#Yankees
acquiring Juan Soto, Alex Verdugo, Trent Grisham and Marcus Stroman is a good set of winter moves. Hard to believe the the disappointment on here with Cash not signing Hector Neris, but such is life.

Kay is right. Among, Chapman, Britton and Taillion coming off, that's almost $40 million to turn into Rodon and Benintendi.

Yankees Twitter is telling me the season is over after four games. Team won't make the playoffs. Is too old. What a mess!

Patrick Corbin, for a career, is two games above .500. James Paxton is 15. Corbin's ERA is 3.91, Paxton's 3.42. Just saying to those who say Cashman passed in the best starting pitching available.
20
32
189
Nobody wants to jump to conclusions, but there has to be organizational talk about Holmes. He has 6 blown saves. His control was terrible today. He has had issues against both Baltimore and Boston. Errors don't help, but neither do walks.
35
14
199
Heyman believes Gardner and the Yanks will "work it out" for one more year. If he's back, he knows his role, if not, great career. No opinion either way.

Short-sighted MLB ownership is on the verge of driving this game into oblivion. Fans are of no consequence. Improving the lot off young players is of now consequence. Penny-pinching and crushing the MLBPA is all. They are so far behind other sports kids are flocking to.
22
28

Gary Sanchez is hitting .210 in Minnesota and does not catch every game. He has 10 homers. Gil is hitting .265 with 9 homers. To say the Yanks got fleeced in this trade - Rortvedt will be useful - is another Twitter creation.
49
9
186
Some may not agree, bit, with this
#Yankees
team - and the way the defense has improved and the pitching what it is backed by a versatile lineup, don't care if the catchers hit .150 if they do their jobs in other areas.
42

182
Can’t blame the Yanks for Clint Frazier’s failures. His fundamentals never improved, he was immature and not very coachable. He had injuries and then the unfortunate concussion situation. Sometimes potential is unfulfilled. We move on.
25
15
178
After a 60-game season and ballparks not fully opened until June, this is just unreal stupidity.
7
20
181
Would not be surprised to see Brett Gardner offered a
#Yankees
minor-league coaching job. Has both the personality and cred to help young players.
27
8
181
So
#Yankees
, who some said their season was done at 5-5 a bit ago, head to Kansas City at 13-6 and in first place in the AL East. Good work in winning 8-of-9.

A few years ago, Gary Bettman told NHL owners they needed to overhaul their economic system. The NHL has never been better. The NFL, NBA and MLS have figured it out as well. Why can’t MLB?

Cole is worth every penny. Carried this team on his back almost totally. Willed the
#Yankees
to a series win. Definitely Cole's moment as a Yankee. Rest and recover during the All-Star Break.

12
172
Let's analyze the weekend. They Yankees picked up a game on Toronto by taking 2-of-3. They picked up two games on the Rays, who lost 2-of-3 in Baltimore. Boston won 2-of-3 from St. Louis and picked up nothing. Tampa will be desperate. Take 2-of-3 in Tampa and call it a good trip.
13
17
174
If trading Gleyber brings back a needed piece, Yankees ought to do it.
38
8
172
Sanchez was retained because there is no other better option and he does not have a lot of value. Most certainly 2022 will be his last season with the
#Yankees
if he doesn't get his act together.
