OT: 2024 NY Yankees Season Thread

[WhiteBus]

It really wasn't the worst Yankee trade of all time. The three guys they gave up didn't turn out to be Rogers Hornsby, Dick Groat and Don Drysdale.

Here is the worst Yankee trade I can think of off the top of my head.

Never trade for a guy with a no trade clause. It is the worst trade of any club ever.

After a tortuous 8 innings of two-hit ball, they get four straight hits in the ninth for a big win.
The pitching has been surprisingly good...without Cole.
Now if Judge can get out of whatever he's currently going through.

 

[Kbee3]

Well, he definitely looked lucky tonight in the 8th and 9th vs. the Orioles.

Holmes good luck continued this afternoon vs. Detroit.
5-3 Yankees win.

I guess at some point we have to give the guy credit for getting the job done. I'm not willing to do that until the season is over to prevent a jinx. This post by itself maybe an issue actually.....shit.

How about that ump throwing out Judge for talking to himself while walking back to the dugout? Talk about thin skin and/or wanting to be a tough guy. Judge didn't show him up and he wanted to exert power. That ump needs to be put in his place; you can't be throwing guys out for talking to themselves walking away from you.

 

[Kbee3]

This Soto is pretty impressive.
And Nestor looks pretty impressive so far as well.

He is out.

He is out.

Let's hope.

I hope and pray.

He is out.

Well he was thrown out of the game yesterday, does that count.
According to Judge that was the first time ever getting tossed out by an umpire in his life!

In tge Fan- someone pointed out the last time a Yankee Captain was ejected was in 1994- go Rangers. Lol
Btw- Knicks did make the finals

 

[Rhuarc]

Umpires are such pussies nowadays. If they would man up and accept criticism in the media, you wouldn't get a bunch of crap like this.

I can't help wondering what he said to get ejected from the game.

Thanks. I didn't watch that video at first.
I can't wait for those robot umpires.

 

[Kbee3]

This Verdugo looks pretty good.
Gil keeps looking like someone who should stay in the rotation.
Always great to blast the Astros.

 

[T2Kplus20]

Soto = 440 feet
Judge = 404 feet
Stanton = 447 feet

Life is good. :)

How long did it take for Stanton to "run around the bases" ?

Judge had better up his game or else he'll be called a slacker.

 

[Kbee3]

I never thought the starting rotation would look this good in Cole's absence.
And Will Warren is tearing it up at AAA and should soon be due for a promotion to the big club.

Soto has brought a huge bolt of electricity to the yankees, best Cashamn move in a long time. he is going to earn the biggest contract in baseball history after this year and the yanks will have no choice but to pay up.

Agreed. I'm not a fan of longterm contracts anymore, but it's pretty clear they need to break the bank for Soto.

Soto is still so young- he is the one guy it may make sense for

Lefty, Yankee Stadium, high OBA, not complicated. Sign his ass.

If it's a 12-13 year contract, it's still gonna hurt in the end!

Holmes....32 pitches in 9th inning.

You just knew that was gonna happen when they reminded everyone that he hadn't pitched in five days. I was sure control was gonna be an issue. I'm just glad he did enough to hold onto the win.

Chapman 2.0
More than 3 days of rest and he couldn't hit the broadside of a barn.

 

[Kbee3]

How many runs has Holmes given up this year ?
How many blown saves ?

 

[MitchLL]

Save a few bucks and send all these bullpen bums back to AAA on the same bus.

If you just shitcanned Ferguson the bullpen would have a 1.00 ERA on its own. He sucks.

0.0 and 0.0

 

[Kbee3]

The bigger question is who gets dropped from the rotation when Cole comes back.

 

[RUDave_01]

0.0 and 0.0

I have to remind myself of that... as scary as he can make these situations, he's come through this year.

At some point, he'll give up a couple of runs and blow a save and when he does, we'll need to put that in perspective. He's walked 3 guys in 17 innings and struck out 21... aside from Friday, he's walked one other batter all season.

 

[Kbee3]

Or who sits when the Martian is ready ?

Ideally, Torres. If the positions can be worked out. He's a bum.

Yeah, I'd love to see Stanton playing second base.
