Geez. I suppose yesterday with 5 hours of driving, the accident, etc. was too much for this old fart. I went in to catch a nap before the game and woke up 2.5 hours later as the 4th inning was beginning.
Nice to read about the Volpe/Judge back to backers and looking forward to that happening many more times in the future…

Anybody remember a Yankee pitcher from the 1970s named Dave Pagan? Except his name was pronounced like what the Visigoths and Huns were. No demerits for not knowing him. There was also the better-known Jose Pagan, pronounced like this guy's.

Last year at this time of night the game would probably be in the fourth inning. I love the pitch clock so much. I hope the concession lines are also faster or prob going to waste like 3 innings standing in line now lol Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

As noted by anthony.

I said it before and NOW, I will say it again. The Yanks should stop trying to get to the WS this year and INSTEAD use it as a
mini-rebuild year where we give SOME of our Top Prospects Ample Playing Time & Big League Experience, etc. If by chance we go to the WS then...but our gosal should be to ensure we have the RIGHT Young Players with ML Experience for our 2024 run.
This means we Cut/Trade Donaldson and Hicks for sure. We send back to the Farm Calhoun. We call up Perez and then when needed due to injuries (which for sure will happen = DJ, Stanton, Rizzo, Bader, etc.) other Top Prospects.
TB for the last few years have found a way to be VERY competitive with a Payroll of around $80m/year or less and our payroll is over $200m/year.
TB has a better Owner, GM and by far, very far, a better MGR.
I fear the day, hour, minute that I hear/read that Cash has traded some of our Top Prospects for Reynolds (which in the long run will hurt us more then help us).
WE must stop the Instant Grafication BS that has haunted us for 13-years and start doing some long term planning.
Yes, WE will have injuries, just as every other team will...so stop blaming our failures on injuries instead put the blame where it belongs = _____________________________________________(fill in the blank).
After I heard the word Quad, I realized it has been a long while since I have had a quadsome = need to do some PLANNING!!!
 “Quadsome”… LOL. More like a “Fearsome Foursome”… 😂😂😂😂 |

This decision is about to blow up in Boone's face.
