Also don't put a guy averging 125 with 3 strikes
Cannot think of a better order. And if we have
Think about the talent he could have brought in a couple of years ago for Andujar and Sanchez...I think Cashman has not taken advantage of moving a player that is a hot commodity but who also has a ton of holes in their game that got exposed later.
Although I don't think much of Hick's bat, I wasn't suggesting they remove him from the lineup. I don't think they have better options at his position right now. I just don't want a guy hitting third whose selling point is on-base-percentage.
If Judge plays to the deadline without injury = HELL NO
So, you might think of trading Judge if he gets hit by a pitch which breaks a bone or two in his hand ?
Maybe means maybe (so it depends on the circumstances). Everyone gets hit on the hand from time to time. Don't get a broken hand (where a pad or toughen up! :) ).
I dont mind Hicks but there was ZERO reasons signing him to a long term contract. He is the definition of average.
My point is that he is a FA in a couple of years...Let's say only by chance Yanks are out of it and Judge has played healthy and having a good but not HUGE year- let's say .270 18 HR at trading deadline...If the Yanks hope to sign him long term, he will be wanting a 7/150 or better contract. But...we all know he is an injury waiting to happen. But, then again, maybe that is in the past and you can lock him in for 35-45 HR a year for the next 5 years. But it is a gamble.
Agree with this- Hicks seems like a good teammate, great fielder and he can have a dangerous bat. The problem is the 7/70...They should have gone for a 4/40 type deal on him or let him walk.
Trade Hicks, Stanton and Judge. They suck.
Not saying he's great but he's ours for the time being so I'll enjoy the non-"meh" days when I can.
You had to go back 2 years for highlights? Anything current?? I think we all said he was average. Didn't see anyone say he sucks. The Mets thread is calling you. They don't concern themselves with reading comprehension over there.
Did you ever think, maybe, Richie saw for himself and was just trying to nip it, since last years Met fan that got all the blame hasn't been on, yet you and your minions have paid several visits already?
I’m kind of finding it hard to believe a simple ball busting “0-1” not only got you reported but made Richie feel the need to do something. But, if it takes your sorry self off the Mets thread, then it is all good. Stay here and enjoy the Yankees.
