So, how is everyone feeling about Anthony Rizzo and Joey Gallo? Love Rizzo. I think Gallo will come around but his numbers since the all star break are concerning. He'll always draw his walks though. |

That’s when George Steinbrenner was still alive. Cashman had to keep it hidden, as some people believe.  “Cash, why is it that I’ve never got to meet that outfielder you signed? What’s his name, Matt Suey, right? Sounds like a big Ol’ American Arkansas boy. Like to meet him at least once. And this Wang fella. Carl Mean Wang? I bet his parents were a trip. Haha. What a sense of humor. Carl Mean Wang, that’s a killer. Where’s Kostanza? That’s not a foreign name is it”?… You have it mixed up. George didn’t care. Cashman is the villain in this scenario. |

We have to keep the team’s needs and Wade in perspective. This was only Wade’s 13 start of the season. He only has like 375 at bats over five years for his career. If he could hit, he wouldn’t be a role player. Over a 162 game season, his versatility comes in handy without making move after move or trade after trade, especially with all the Yankees’ IL stints. |

5 games behind Red Sox in loss Winning the WC is a lot more realistic. We would have pass tampa for the division as well. With no pitching upgrade that is not likely. |
