OT: Official 2023 NY Yankees Season Thread

[mdk01]

Gary Sanchez is now completely out of baseball. Took a minor league deal with the Giants. After not getting called up on Tuesday he quit.

Gary Sanchez released by Giants with ex-Yankee’s MLB future uncertain

In 16 games for Triple-A Sacramento, the 30-year-old hit just .164 with no home runs, one double, 19 strikeouts and a .501 OPS.

Hope he saved some money

Another great move by Cashman.

 

[Rhuarc]

I heard Cashman worked in the Wuhan lab as well right after he fudged up those voting machines.

Interesting article about hot dog and beer prices throughout all the ballparks. I was totally shocked to see that the Yankees aren't near the top.

MLB beer prices by team: See where drinks, hot dogs are cheapest (and most expensive)

Is it expensive to eat at an MLB ballpark? It can depend on which stadium you are at, a USA TODAY analysis shows.

About 10 years ago when Atlanta dropped by prices both sales and profits increased

 

[MitchLL]

NYY seriously needs to win 5 of the 7 games vs the Ray's or this really goes south.

I just can't envision that happening.

 

[Kbee3]

Big win this afternoon.
I still can't believe this team has a winning record thus far and is in last place.
What a tough division.

I agree. What's truly amazing is that they are still about .500 with all the injuries. I think this team will be pretty good by the All star break.

 

[zappaa]

Can someone explain why Oswaldo Cabrera plays?

 

[Kbee3]

Can someone explain to me how the Yankees could have a 6-0 lead over the Rays with Cole pitching....and lose the game ?

They left Cole in too long, no?

 

[Kbee3]

I'm still trying to figure out why Hicks plays

 

[Kbee3]

So true.
You can't blame that one on Cashman.

 

[WhiteBus]

But Cashman's Nerd Squad feeds Boone the info....

 

[Kbee3]

But Cashman's Nerd Squad feeds Boone the info....

Info ?
I thought he went on his gut feelings....like when he pulled German for Holmes to finish the ninth the other day....when Domingo was dealing and had a low pitch count.

 

[MitchLL]

Boone is a fvcking idiot whose ass is covered by Cashman.

This injury excuse crap is getting old.

 

[coldsprings]

Monday night against the A's, if you watched Bader run full speed out of the box and earn an easy triple, you see a big problem with the team. Yes, Bader is perhaps the fastest player on the team, but almost every other Yankee will choose to coast for the double (Volpe excepted). They are not even in a position to take third on a slight bobble etc. Boone and Judge tolerating the lack of hustle is for me, intolerable.

 

[MitchLL]

Maybe they can redo the schedule and play Oakland for the next 126 games?

 

[Kbee3]

Here comes the Judge.
BTW, Gary Sanchez is now a Met.

 

[WhiteBus]

Talk about desperation!!

With the rate that many of the Yankees get injured doing simple things, I don't know if legging out a double to a triple is high on my list of complaints.

 

[WhiteBus]

Hicks pulled from the game. Apparently he is happy with yesterday's homer and needs time off to celebrate

 

[runrayrun]

Volpe with the triple. No coast into second.

 

[WhiteBus]

Volpe the youngest player to hit a grand slam in any version of Yankee Stadium and it wasn't a cheapie. Nice blast!

 

[Rhuarc]

Fun fact - the Yankees are the worst team in the East but are currently better than any other team the rest of the divisions, except for the Rangers. Talk about unbalanced divisions.

I'm hearing that the Rays are pulling a Houston this season:

WFAN hosts accuse Yankees’ division rival of cheating

A pair of WFAN radio hosts accused an AL East team of cheating after their hot start.

Makes sense!

Your siding with a guy that scammed millions from people, went to jail and a guy who only knows about Nets basketball and Mets baseball??
Talk about unreliable!!!

Carton = no WFAN for me except for game broadcasts.

Shame Roberts is involved.

 

[Rhuarc]

WFAN's afternoon drive team has gone downhill since Mike and the Mad Dog stopped working together. It's not even an option for me at this point.

I've moved to Mad Dog Radio and even the national ESPN channel. Also listen to McAfee and his crew quite a bit.

As I said, Nets fan Mets fan. Other then that he knows nothing about sports. He is Steve Somers without the schtick.

Carton is scum and makes it clear he is only a year to year fan…
Take it as it is.,,

 

[Kbee3]

Now comes the real test.... four vs. Tampa followed by four at Toronto.
Hopefully Bader can continue to spark the offense.

Test #1.....Fail.

 

[Rhuarc]

Bader has been such an important addition to this team. I'm glad the trade is working out because it certainly looked like a huge bust watching Monty overproduce early on.

TB's pitching depth is not good right now with all their injuries. They'll be out of first by the all star break, if not sooner.

He is a huge pickup- type of player most teams need.

 

[RUhasarrived]

Right after today's game ended,the 12th race at Freehold was won by All Rise.

Games two and three of this series have been enjoyable.

8-4 so far this May. Tomorrow's a big one before 4 on the road at Toronto.
