OT: Official 2024 NY Yankees Season Thread

[Kbee3]

You can have a 1-2 week slump, but he's in a month long one. He can't do that when his salary is 1/7th of the team's payroll. I should have been more specific.

He's got another week left in April. He looked better today. Oakland isn't exactly sending out Koufax and Drysdale for the next two games.
Despite the start there's every reason to expect a typical super-productive season from Judge.

Uh oh.
I'm beginning to think we may have seen the last of DJ.

Meh. DJ hasn't been the same player since the contract.

 

[Rhuarc]

Unfortunately, we won't be free of his contract for another 3 years I believe.

Evan Longoria is available I believe. Sign him on the cheap and let him mentor the young kids if DJ is out for a lot longer.

Fire Cashman.

No weak grounder into a double play yet?

Watched a few minutes of today's game while getting ready for work. I don't think that I've ever heard of a single guy thats playing for Oakland.

So true.
Not a good sign that the Yankees are struggling with them.

And that owner is worth 3 billion dollars, pleads poverty and won't even come up with a decent payroll. These owners are 100 times more harmful to the game than the big spenders. It's not even close.

I have said this so often. There has to be a min cap too. Anything in xxmil- loses a certain % of tge revenue sharing that is taxed to the clubs over cap.

Gleyber...LOL, gets picked off of 1st base and Trevino hits a HR on the next pitch.

Get rid of that POS.

Their closer is pretty memorable.

I was talking about the guys that were on the field. As for the closer (who I had to look up) what is Mason Miller memorable for?

I hadn't heard of him either.
He's a rookie. 103 mph fastball and a nasty slider. He's thrown 15 of the 18 fastest pitches this season in MLB. Twenty strikeouts in 10 innings pitched.

We lost to a Double-A team last night. Sad.

And tonight the Yanks turned the game over to a guy who has already been cut by three other teams this season...and it's still April.
What do you think happened ?
Of course the three, four, and five hitters going a combined 0-14 didn't help.

Add in leadoff hitter...0-19.

At this point Gleyber is just worthless.
