I would keep Torres. The rest are too inconsistent. Stanton I haven't give up hope on, but he really messes up the roster construction when he can't play the OF. what about Stanon's history as a Yankee convinces you he will ever be much better. He will get worse as he gets older. I still think he's capable of 30 HR a year. Thats not easy to replace. |

Ok let me summarize. 1 hit and now we are playing .500. Ready for my six year plan yet? Got to get rid/trade Torres, station, DJ, seve, Bauer, McKinney plus more and rebuilt with YOUTh. Yes drop fire cash and Boone. Look back at my post in the spring trainin thread of Feb 2023 looks like I will be making some serious dollars. Got to run Boone is on yes. gag me You speak like we have the power to make those trades and fire Cash and Boone. We don't have any power as fans. |

I thought guilty about not watching games because they are so bad offensively. But they are painful to watch

Looked it up. Jim Rice in first place with 36 and second place with 35. I thought so. Now I don’t have to look it up… |

I know Judge is super important to this team, but Rizzo was I believe top 5 in WAR in the AL and maybe MLB? when Judge went down as well while the Judge injury is huge Rizzo's head being destroyed by Tatis didn't really help either. That is almost ONE HUNDRED HR out of the lineup from last season. Make fun of Rizzo all you want, but I feel like the last couple weeks they are really feeling him not being there. His defensive replacements have not go to balls he would get to...lack of HR power..Judge's walks are through the roof. I hope he can come back and be back to normal, because he is more important to this team than he gets credit for.

I think our problem is an inability to hit not the home runs, but then I am heretical in believing that and have been for many years.

You beat me to it. Games like this we have leisure to do random research. Think I'll do a quick refresher on Beowulf. I think I'll head to Tony Womack's Baseball Reference page for the millionth time. It hasn’t changed, but he appreciates the hits… |

David Justice now that's a real trade deadline pickup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I’d have taken Halley Berry. To hell with Dave! … |
