    The Yankees proved now is go time. When everybody's healthy over there we are talking a heavyweight scrum for top AL (MLB) lineup. We gotta move, man. Sign Gibby now! I think he will be easier right now than Berrios and maybe a hair cheaper right now than in the off season. I think he has more value than MadBum. A trade for bullpen help too. We need two one really good and another mid level maybe specialist type. A good starter like MadBum won't move the needle for this team like BP help. Yeah we could move Perez or Pineda to the pen but how did Perez look there early this year? Straight up BP help is priority #1 & 2.

    One for the suggestion box: I like how you have pared down the top twenty list to only those who played. Now that you have a little extra space how about having a season stat line to go with their days performance for overall perspective (for the lazy man)?

    The bullpen usage charts are sliced bread!

    Dick ever the company man slinging the hyperbole.

    Fun game and crisp at 2:40. Smeltzer just goes to work and we may just have something there. I would like to see one more and give him another week with Wes. He is one guy I do not see using in the pen. For me he makes better sense as much needed rotation depth.

    Smeltzer was fun to watch. He came at hitters and seemed to have the same arm slot on every pitch.

    I thought I heard we have the easiest remaining schedule in the division.

    *Gardenhire was a guest this week on Starting 9, the second best non-team specific podcast out there right now IMHO. I highly suggest checking it out if you haven't yet. He's such an amazing interview. What's the best non-team specific podcast?

    This is a very good point. I doubt many of these Latin players grew up laying on the wall to wall carpeting, staring into their iPads while nibbling on Pringles and sipping soda. Oh s*** I spilled I'll have to finish this later

    Aye-Ray is Chief's nickname for Adrianza. Adrianza is a fine ballplayer but this kid has some excitement and energy about him that fits well with this club.
  11. wabene
    Aye-Ray has no options I think it is time to make the switch and I think Arraez makes this an easy choice. It's obviously only a few games but he gives me the same impression I got from polanco when he came up also from way down on the farm.

    Two weeks till the draft. Let's go shopping! Ok I'll admit I don't know the rules. So after the draft they can sign a guy like Kimbrel and not have to give up a pick, but why are trades so rare until right before the deadline? Are trades impacted by the timing of the draft? I want to see them trade some assets for some heat in the pen.

    According to Sportrac he's ARB 3 in 2020.
  14. wabene
    I'm really glad we've got a 3 o'clock start today. That's a payback for the late West coast start times and a perfect Sunday start. Not so early you can't get anything done.
  15. wabene
    What are they going to do with Cron? An .841 ops and on pace for 48 dingers? Looks like he's ARB 3 next year so we have basically an option on him an Perez. Damn these moves look good! With a complete free agent washout last year but a reset button for this year. Pinch me. The one holdover was Addison and they didn't waste any time (or losses) on eating that deal. Again pinch me!

    Damn hildy has a 36.00 ERA in Rochester so far. (1 inning)
  17. wabene
    I'm cooperating with you here but I'm not sure I buy your homer projections for these two young players. They each hit nearly your numbers in a half season of at bats. Now Garver can't be expected to get a full season of at bats but Polanco should. They also could be expected to develop more power as they grow.
  18. wabene
    1.5 extra base hits but yeah
  19. wabene
    All true but I don't see what the rush is. He comes up before the top of the order in the vast majority of his at bats anyway. The amount of at bats he'll miss out on in the next, say, month isn't that big of a deal. I could see first moving him up to around sixth for a while. With his track record I wouldn't rush him in to anything that might get him back into his own head.

    They had a little trouble doing it to the TWINS

    Just like last week a disappointing Sunday gets brightened by a look at the week overall.
  22. wabene
    I think the depth is better than it has been. Marwin stepping up for Sano, the three headed catcher etc
  23. wabene
    Stewart was a very candid interview on the post game show
  24. wabene
    Why did this joke take so long? C'mon people!
  25. wabene
    I would have left May in. Saved Rogers for a lead or the second game
