If we swing and missed on Muchado and stand looking on Harper, I'm going to have to agree with you Bonn.

A whopping $550K for a Tulo reclamation project is not getting us anywhere.


Looks like Tulo is going to be our top free agent acquisition this off-season (not counting bringing back FAs we had last year).

So we just need to learn how to appreciate being another team among the first place losers! Maybe we'll even win 101 games before losing in the playoffs!

DJ LeMahieu has reached an agreement with the New York Yankees on a two-year, $24 million deal, league sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan.

They finally spent a little money! I like the deal but wonder what it means for Andujar.

I think they will eventually do like tiki 3rd Torres SS lamat at 2nd and andujar at first because we know bird won’t have a full season

And I guess the consensus is to keep Voit on the bench or trade him? Andujar at first? What does he do if Bird's actually healthy for awhile? DH? I think that million or so they gave Bird to avoid arbitration is a possible first step to trading him.

Voit gave us the best production we've had in a long time at first best, though it was only a quarter of a season. We have to give him a solid shot now. There's no obvious place to put Andujar unfortunately.

So despite Hal's Yogi Berra posturing, it looks like Cashman's done dealing as far as Muchadoaboutnothing and/or Harper... Still think we could use Harper though instead of starting the Ancient Gardner...despite those wheels on the basepaths.
jrodmc @ 3/6/2019 2:44 AM
So no Sevy for opening day. Now we'll really see if Cashman can make a really good move during the Spring.
jrodmc @ 6/7/2019 10:07 AM
DJ LaMahieu is singlehandedly making Cashman GM of the Year.

Second half adds Didi, Judge, Stanton, Severino, Betances, Montgomery and Losaignia. Once the rust wears off, should be interesting.

jrodmc @ 6/26/2019 8:38 AM
It might be a meaningless record nobody really cares about, but 28 games and counting!

For the one of us that actually enjoys Homer John Sterling calls, this is a great season to be a Yankees fan!


Edwin Encarcion... this is really getting fun to watch.

I like that Messina went in “Hat neutral”. Here we have a player who split time with two clubs and did not want to pick one over the other.
I’m glad they let players have this option on how they are to be “enshrined”.

Yankees beat the twins in 10. Not doing sh@t until after 10 tomorrow.
jrodmc @ 7/24/2019 9:08 AM
Possibly best game of the year. The kid they traded away kicks their azz at the plate and then in centerfield! That home run stare looks so Reggie-esque.

Love Judge's quote on Hicks: "That's why he plays centerfield for the New York Yankees"

Does Cashman say "DJ and Hicks" and then do the Arod french kiss in the mirror every morning? Although that starting pitching is starting to look like crap at times.


Probably a good thing if Sanchez goes on the IR at this point. I know alot of Sanchez's outs seem to be on stellar plays in the field and barely off timing, but at this point, even though he's got relatively no power numbers at all, Romine's almost a wash at the plate.

jrodmc @ 7/26/2019 10:11 AM
Okay, good feeling gone. That was beyond putrid.
Holy crap, seeing Romine pitch is like...

Maybe they can get some mound work out of Sanchez when he gets back off the IR?

jrodmc @ 8/11/2019 5:26 PM
Tanaka almost getting the complete game shutout.

Hope Paxson looks as good tomorrow.

jrodmc @ 8/14/2019 9:28 AM
I miss John Sterling keeping track of how many games over .500 we are.

40 games over... We need to play the Orioles more.

jrodmc @ 8/30/2019 8:49 AM
Best record in the MLB and only the third highest payroll! LOL

Should be interesting to see what happens when Severino, Betances, Stanton and the rest come back this late in the season. Could be bad. Could be good.

DJ!!!!!
jrodmc @ 10/22/2019 11:39 AM
So the Core Four have no worries about the Baby Bombers supplanting their legacy...
Can't even get to a WS, let alone win one...

Going to be interesting what Cashman tries to pull out of his hat this off-season.

jrodmc @ 12/11/2019 8:36 AM
Hey Bonn! We're spending REAL money again! This DeathStar is fully operational! George must be grinning in his grave!

Cash is finally tired of all this pointless winning!

jrodmc @ 1/17/2020 9:33 AM
Well, at least WE THE EVIL EMPIRE don't cheat!

Sucks to be a mets fan these days... <--- that's sarcasm, fellas
