I feel the same way about this as Mike Axisa has said on RAB in a couple of mailbag/livechats: Hopefully not. The bullpen should be good enough without Sheffield to hold down opponents, and I think it's better that he keep starting all season. Maybe in September depending on what's going on with the AAA standings but otherwise no.

Despite being so good this team can be so loving frustrating. Leaving the bases loaded again for what seems like the 90th time this year.

This is a pretty bad lineup they put out today. I just DESPISE Hicks hitting leadoff and Walker as a righty hitter.

Snell being good makes me hope he becomes available. Drury and Adams plus some young arms I think would get it done.

Nice AB there Stanton. About on par with his defense.

Stanton just swung at a pitch that bounced 3 feet in front of the plate for about the 4th time tonight.

Sanchez, not content to embarrass himself at the plate, is having quite an inning on D... What the hell is up with this guy?

It's my fault. I picked him high in fantasy. But this really makes no sense unless he's injured or has had like conjunctivitis all year.

I just don't see him catching for his entire career. Not sure why they didn't consider him at first with Bird out and Romine turning into Piazza but better last month.

All good hitting catchers who aren't Pudge Rodriguez move off catcher but usually in their mid 30s.... Sanchez is 25.

I was wondering when the “Sanchez should go to first” chat would start. Sometimes a bad year is a bad year. Sanchez still deserves to start, unless you think the first 200 games of his career are a fluke

The value of him as a player is providing his offense from catcher. He's not a valuable player as a 1B. He just needs to get his poo poo together.

Sanchez will do 19-34 with six homers over a ten game stretch and all this will be forgotten. Hopefully it's in the playoffs

Raise your hands if you thought at the beginning of the year that gleyber Torres would be slugging 150 points above Gary Sanchez and 100 points above Stanton halfway through June Torres owns It would also be cool if Sanchez and Stanton got a little better

Sanchez is a bad defensive catcher, but his arm keeps him at just regular bad and not like horribly bad. The good thing is that he is probably going to age pretty decently defensively because so much of his value is in his arm. I could see him catching for another 10 years tbh. I am honestly not all that worried about Gary atm the moment because his eye is still there and extremely good, and he is, to an extent, getting unlucky when he is making contact. His BABIP is .195  . He is not going to have an amazing year, but He will probably end up somewhere around like .240/.340/.460 He could also get super hot randomly and mash like 10 dingers in a month and I wouldn't be surprised at all.

I was adamant in this thread in spring training that he had to be the starting third baseman and even I wouldn't have expected this line so far. Paul Zuvella posted:I am honestly not all that worried about Gary atm the moment because his eye is still there and extremely good, and he is, to an extent, getting unlucky when he is making contact. His BABIP is .195 His BABIP blows but I think that more reflective of his struggles at the plate rather than any bad luck - the ball is coming off his bat horribly. He's hitting more pop-ups and weak ground balls than anything else. I think he's going to pull it together but it would be real nice if this team stopped relying on a 21 year old to carry them through games because I'm not sure how long it can last. mikeraskol fucked around with this message at 17:49 on Jun 15, 2018 |

Andujar has been an elite offensive player at every single level he's ever played at. This isn't surprising at all.

Sanchez' line for the year is gonna be poo poo even if he hits .300 from here on out but that only matters if you have him in a roto league. Also Sanchez is good at all catching stuff except for blocking pitches which is an issue, but is also a bigger issue on the Yankees since we have some of the hardest pitchers to actually catch.

He sucks at framing pitches too, which shouldn't matter anyway but it does I think Sanchez will come around offensively, I'm more concerned about Stanton and the potential that his stance has been figured out and he won't be able to have another mid-season adjustment to mash dingers like he did last year Anyway the team still owns. I'm sure fans of other teams who browse this thread get pretty salty when they see Yankee fans complaining about how hard they have it. Believe me, I know this team is awesome and I'm enjoying the hell out of this season

I can't imagine Red Sox fans are any less frustrated than us that our respective teams are having such ridiculous seasons and have a dead heat for the division to show for it.
