He's holding on too tight. He's lost the edge.

Springer, Yuli, Correa, Brantley, Maldonado - at some point we just lost too much fire and leadership from the locker room.
There is no one holding people accountable, coaches included.
This.
Yuli should have been kept last year. Brantley should have been signed to a player/coach contract this year.
We have zero clubhouse presence.

So Bregman may be playing himself into a 1 year prove it contract a la Bellinger.
What would you offer?
The QO
We'd get a draft pick if he doesnt sign right?

Probably not but we need the draft pick or a body to fill the position.

QO to someone playing like he doesn't deserve to be on a major league roster?

Let's see how the season shakes out. My money is he improves from his previous production this year.
Especially if he has a QO attached to him.
There is absolutely no reason to have kept Yuli. Come on now.
And a player/coach contract? What?

bases loaded for Soto
7 RBI for Soto and Judge tonight

Can we stop pretending this team is good yet?
It's beginning to look like Dusty squeezed a miracle out of this lemon last year despite what it seemed like at the time.

Now Dusty is a miracle worker? Wow.
This team have all of sudden become nutless.
Apparently we hired this guy to manage the team...
3 hits for Dubon
double
the metrics still don't like him

oh my, Jake triples
This is still a good team. That's why this is so ****ing frustrating.
It's obvious that guys are pressing, Yordan is nicked up and pitching is being held together by bubble gum and paper clips.
But at some point, these guys need to stop looking at the excuses, say, "Eff it." And just play.

Start dubon at 3rd
both Dubon and Jake have a higher OPS than Yordan
I believe Espada has 0 feel for his bullpen. It's always the wrong guy.
Altuve 0 for New York
Someone needs to start throwing some mfing bats because I don't know how many more times we have to strand a runner at 3rd with less than 2 outs before I see anyone on the gd team act like they give a flying f****. This is basic f***ing baseball.

When your starter gives up 5+ every game it doesn't matter much sadly
We could have easily missed the playoffs altogether last year if the final week had gone differently. How much would that change all of our assumptions about Dusty/Espada and heart/work ethic... this team is just a dysfunctional mess right now and no amount of pining or bat destroying is going to fix our weaknesses. It's up to the players, coaches, and the front office to find better strategies moving forward.PoppaB05 said:

there's the new cleanup hitter
Pena homers

There's my cleanup hitter!
Feels so good, feelin' good again.
Pena is probably the best shortstop to ever play at Yankee Stadium.
Feels so good, feelin' good again.
Peña has been great this year. One bright spot of this disaster.

Uncalled for
You jinxed them. Blanco gives up 5 tomorrow and Peña has a golden sombrero.f1ghtintexasaggie said:B-Rabbit said:

I take 'tuve for granted. He's cooled off a bit, but he's been solid too. I'm just talking about unexpected success.
