I asked the same question in the Masters thread. He hasn’t been here since 3/11. I hope all is OK.

I agree with all this, but how on earth can you give him a 9 year contract at 36 million a year when he's had a history of injuries? He's a 6 foot 7 inch outfielder. If he played first I might be ok with it. IF he can prove himself this year, I'd also be ok with it.
It's like the Mets re-signing DeGrom if he opts out this year. How much are you gonna give him at his age and with his injury history?
Judge is not going to have men on base batting 2nd. How often are the 8th & 9th batters going to be on base.
Donaldson does have a high on base percentage for his career. Someone's gotta do it and the options are kind of slim.
Unbelievable how much these guys get paid for hitting and catching a ball. If we paid cancer researchers that much we would have a cure by now.
Judge is not going to age well. You can't stable the club with an awful contract for 4-5 years.
Maybe the research and pharm companies worth more then every sports league, should be in question..,
Hey, Mickey Mantle ended up at first, so what's the problem? Oh by the way they should have put him
there 2 or 3 years earlier.

How much does Hal Steinbrenner make per year ?
And can he hit major league pitching ?

Did I miss something? Is there a team of scientists at these pharma companies that have 10 year contracts worth 30M+ per?
Hank is dead so I am guessing makes nothing and still can't hit the curve!
Just shows you how much I pay attention to ownership of my favorite pro teams.
So, how much does Hal make ?
It's so nice to know that the Yankee pitchers are not pitching to the backstop anymore and have good catching to improve their game.
He had chances to knock in the winning run a few times tonight and really crapped the bed.
There is no way he should be playing. We
have better players begging to play, and
he is our starter why? Fire the General Manager. Who probably made this decision.
The number of unproductive outs has been a big, big problem for a few years now. Doesn't look like 2022 will be any different. The 9th inning Sunday night is so Yankee like.
Welcome to the modern day MLB.
Welcome to the modern day MLB.
Most teams don’t bunt against the shift or players in motion.
mans the funny thing is- every damn year, you see the team that does these things, win.
launch angles and such make for better contracts and power stats but they don’t win World Series
Boone is 100% gone without a World Series win this year .
Frankly I’d trade judge for prospects and maybe a few others and get a up and coming manager. This team is just not built to win . Correction - those In charge think they are built to win but they really aren’t , they are old and slow.
I don’t understand what Cashman is really thinking with this roster the last few years . They are not offensive juggernauts especially when they get to the playoffs and face aces .
like why is Torres here lol.

The Yankees need some young position players to catch on. That's where the youth and speed comes from. They've done a shitty job on that front in recent years. I would question the whole system of development and they way they run it actually. They have a ton of good, young arms that can throw 1 or 2 innings at a time but where's the homegrown OF who can actually run and track down some balls while getting some clutch hits?
I don’t follow your minor league players but didn’t the Yanks have one of the better systems out there?
They are a middle of the pack system right now. Kind of makes sense given they make the playoffs and don't get top 10 picks.
This is classic John Sterling. https://www.yahoo.com/news/yankees-announcer-john-sterling-colossally-112216067.html
I think he had one in the playoffs last year with Stanton as well. I don't blame him because I thought it was gone as well.
This team resembles a team where guys can't pick each other up.
Example...last nite, tied in top of 8th...Green walks #7 hitter on a full count because he doesn't throw a heater. Next guy gets on base because of catcher's interference. Next batter hits a tailor made double play to third base and Torres can't get ball out of glove to complete play and end the inning. Springer comes up and knocks in go ahead run after Boone brings in Loisiaga because he’s a better matchup.
It's like everyone is contributing to this shitshow.

Some more than others:
Higashioka........1 for 18
Falefa.................1 for 17
Gallo.................. 3 for 16
Let's hope they're just slow starters.
On TV Michael Kay called a fly out a home run
emphatically. This was last night but I never
cared for his play calling, he'd be arguing with
the other announcers about who has the biggest head. He has become a total ass whole.
He makes Sterli g look good.
