OT: NY Yankees 2025 Season Thread

[Rhuarc]

Schmidt comes back this week. Gil in a few months.

At least it's clear that Stroman won't make his innings clause to kick in the final year of his contract. That's a huge win for the Yankees!

Warren as a 5th starter for now is fine if the rest of the staff can get their heads out of their asses and pitch like they are capable of. They need to find someone else to take over for Carrasco. He's beyond cooked.

Boone has to seriously consider flipping the combo of Weaver/Williams.

SSDD...

HR or bust.

This club has made an art form out of not scoring guys from 3rd base with less than 2 outs.

Relax my brotha. The Yankees youth is finally starting to show. Things are trending up!

 

[MitchLL]

Considering what they're getting from Bellinger/Wells/Chisholm/Volpe...outside the occasional HR, being 13-7 is pretty damn good.

Admittedly, the schedule has been relatively soft.

The entire AL is soft. The Yanks might make it to the WS by default (again).

But what the Yankees are getting from the other guys is insane.
It will come down to pitching

WEAVER SHOULD BE THE CLOSER!!!!!!!

Williams can't handle the pressure.
Boone better figure this shit out.


And while he's at it...send Bellinger back to the Cubs for a warm up jacket and a bag of balls.

Talk about pissing it down your leg.

When your closer has a 5+ ERA, it might be time to consider an alternative.
Maybe, just maybe, pick a guy that was pretty much "light's out" last season.

Nah...that's too obvious!

 

[Rhuarc]

In Yankees world, this is where they send the player off for an "exam" and they find something to put him on the IL. Something like arm fatigue.

These are the kind of games that cost you home field in the post season.

Watching Bellinger in his last AB and he looks absolutely lost. Hasn't hit anything hard for a couple weeks.

Regarding Williams...if he's a head case, the demotion to "set up guy" might ruin him.

Yeah, I don't know what's wrong with Williams. He's never pitched like this before. He has a 2.07 ERA for his entire career.

If he can't pitch in NY, at least they only have him for the season.

He absolutely looks cautious and hesitant.

And I still hate closers that can't blow guys away.

Boone better wake up, cause what he's doing isn't working.

Was it Friday's game where Weaver came in and mowed everyone down? That's the way I envision the closer spot as well.

Fried loses the no-hit bid with a single from the first batter of the 8th inning.

He lost it when the official scorer reversed the error in the 6th to a single in the middle of the 8th.

And how the hell can the umpires get the call wrong on Judge, taking away a mammouth HR? It was obviously a fair ball.

Yeah pretty terrible. MLB umps are walking relics…they will be the first of any sport to be relieved of their duties.

 

[T2Kplus20]

Yanks s'ing the bed on the road again. Can't believe this mediocre team has the best record in the AL (for now).

 

[MitchLL]

In what world is Wells batting leadoff????

Fire Cashman.

 

[MitchLL]

Fire Cashman.

Last nite, 3 of the top 5 guys in the batting order were hitting <.200.

Bellinger gets his BA down around .150 and he'll be leading off!!!!
At this point, he's an automatic out.
Why are teams even pitching to Judge when there's absolute garbage behind him in the order?
