It would be a complete insult to every Yankees player who has ever been worthy of playing in the Old Times to insert that clown. Cut him and put him on a plane out of town.
There have been many Old Timers play in the game that was a marginal guy but a fan favorite. Gallo is not even close to marginal and a million miles away from a fan favorite. I laugh at the idiots who killed me when I said that was a stupid trade.
He will do that this year. He isn't a free agent until after the season. Roger Maris played on 2 teams before the Yankees and 1 after. The fact is the Freddie Freeman left Atlanta to go home not for money just to go back to LA. Judge is playing the same cards.
I'd love to watch him hitting batting practice in pre game.
I bet he misses those too.
Just think where this team would be without Judge.
Before the all-star break, I would have made an argument that Judge could be the centerpiece of a trade for Soto. Both power hitting outfielders, but the Yankees would get the one who is seven years younger and would have control over for a couple of years. Yes, it would have been risky to do in a season where the Yanks have one of the best records in baseball, but I think it would have set them up nicely long term and avoided a contract with Judge that became burdensome five years from now.
Well Judge’s season has entered the historical category since the all-star break rendering that an impossible option for the Yankees.

Gallo not in the lineup for today's game as well.
He really must be in Boone's doghouse.
I think Atlanta regrets it more than he does. He is a Met killer and having another huge year.
Braves most likely in 1st NE East if he was still there..,
I believe your intent is to show the importance of Judge to the Yankees, with the emphasis on his performance since the all star break.
But, what in the world would posses the Nats to have any interest?
That is the key- why would the Nats trade a guy with 2.5 years control for a rental that they would have no hope of signing. They want a good MLB starter that is still under control plus a hoard of your top minor league players. If I am the Nat's- no talk even starts unless the other team has their number one almost MLB ready prospect on it.
Cashman better do his job well at the break. This team has many cracks in its pitching. Getting Montas won’t be enough. Need two bullpen arms at least.
Just watch...he'll be on IL within a week.
Over usage of the bullpen in the first half is coming back to bite Boone in the ass.
Isn’t Holmes innings pretty much on par with just about every other closer?
One of my buds....not a Yankees fan....suggested the Yankees would soon go back to Chapman as closer.
Why are Redsux fans always such idiots ?
At this moment- I would doubt very highly if that is a plan…Most closers not named Mariano have a few games each year that they slump.
Now, it’s not to say, if Holmes really goes into a prolonged slump and Chapman is lights out, they have that option but it isn’t a consideration right now.
I think Holmes is your classic 8th inning guy and not really elite closer material.
Maybe they steal a closer today and drop Holmes back to setup level.

Yanks need to go to back 154 games plus with double headers their seasons gave more days

I actually agree with you. I said that one of my buds thought they should move back to Chapman as their closer.
But he's a Bosux fan. Aren't they all stupid ?
Except for Katie Nolan, of course.
Back around 1998-2002- a few of my buddies and I would always take a weekend trip to Boston to catch a couple of games in their bleachers and party around town...never went for the Yankee series though- and always cracked me up that against a team like KC or the like, they would still be selling Jeter is Gay t-shirts and doing the Jeter Sucks in the stands.
Just seemed so stupid...
Well, until our RU fans started doing the same with non PSu games...:(
Montas is pretty good and only on a $5 mil contract but arbitration eligible next year. Would still be a good value. Trivino...hmmmmmm????
I don't follow the minors that much for the Yankees- what were the expectations for the 3 guys they gave up?
Actually, they gave up four guys...#5 rated prospect Ken Waldichuk, #10 Luis Medina, #20 JP Sears, and #21 (2nd base)Cooper Bowman. Sears has been up with the big club and has done well in several outings. Waldichuk is the guy that I was hoping they'd bring up in September...excellent stuff. Medina also is a hard thrower I was looking forward to being in a Yankees uniform sooner rather than later.
Maybe Cashman is feeling the heat.
You can’t have it both ways. You need to be all in or all out. Make the trade and don’t look back. It will definitely help out this year.
No brainer for Cashman. He is most likely in a win it all or else type year. A starter like Montas is a great pickup for this year and the playoffs.
