Brian Cashman doesn't get enough credit for just how badly he fleeces opposing GMs in trade after trade.

I hope he fleeces one for a good starting pitcher at some point this year.

The gently caress is going on in Texas tonight with all these homeruns? I think that's 14 in 3 games for the Yankees now?

First time in franchise history to have 4+ homers in three straight games. Insane.

Tanaka's issue is that if a pitch isn't working, he can't work around it. He used to be able to grind out quality starts with one pitch being iffy, but since he isn't throwing the FB practically at all, if both the split and slider aren't cooperating on a given night, he can bury himself with the walks. Solo shots won't kill you, especially with this offense.

even though didi has been in a mega slump, he's still slugging .519 at the moment and based on what thescore app says in the boxscore of tonight's game the Yankees had 6 batters at that .519 SLG or higher in their starting 9 that seems really good

I'm really tempted to go Sunday to watch Ohtani pitch, but Friday is also a good day to because he'll be DHing I want to go to see him get shelled or to get struck out four times

Very glad to see Yankee pitching show up against the 29th best offense in the league.

Carlosologist posted:I totally agree, Frazier is probably the hitting prospect I’ve been most excited about since the Miller trade. He deserves a chance at the bigs in New York Even in his slump, he was a way different player than he used to be. Hicks has a way different profile in terms of underlying metrics than he did in Minnesota. He's a valuable contributor. Paul Zuvella posted:This idea that Brandon Drury is some great hitter is really weird. Dude is a slightly below average MLB bat, which is exactly what Andujar is currently. The difference is that Andujar has the potential to mash taters like no ones business and Drury does not. OBP matters, and at least for now he's better defensively. mcmagic posted:Gonna be rough to send Austin down when Bird comes back. gently caress the stupid gigantic bullpens, although I can't see him continuing this with a 30%+ strikeout rate, even though he's come back to Earth. (And they really should consider selling high on Didi and making Gley the SS... Did is both great and someone who we should sell high on, if he could be used to land an ace.)

He's a valuable contributor. I don't get the love of Hicks. He's had 2+ months as an above avg major leaguer in his life. He's a classic 4th outfielder. I know you hate Andujar but his defense has actually been good and it's not like Drury is this great player. His career OPS is lower than Andujar's this season even with his bad OBP. And Andujar has hit at ever level. He's not going to have a OBP in the 290s at the end of the year.

of course OBP matters, but its not the only thing that matters and slugging matters just as much.

I can't wait for all of the incredibly dumb takes about how the Yankees need to trade for Hamels now.

The Yankees definitely need a pitcher but doing anything now would be a panic move. This is one of those losses that just blends with everything else over the course of the year Gleyber has 7 dingers and I have no idea what he’s gonna finish at

Cole is actually an interesting trade option because he is essentially expiring so he would be cheap.

Paul Zuvella posted:Cole is actually an interesting trade option because he is essentially expiring so he would be cheap. I don’t actually think this is the case. He’s the best of an incredibly thin trade market and the Yankees aren’t the only team looking for starting pitching. Also since he has a NTC, he can essentially force the Yankees to pick up his option before agreeing to waive the NTC.

I would definitely not overpay but I would also rather have Hamels than Fulmer.

There are 162 games in a baseball season, crazy poo poo happens all the time and sometimes bad offenses hit. 2 home runs in an extremely home run friendly park is not something that should even ping a panic radar.

I think all but one or two of his runs allowed came in his second inning of work, though. Maybe they should just stop using him for more than 1. Don't know why Boone keeps forcing the issue.
