New York Yankees Official Thread - at Angels; 37-18

[dblplay1212]

I think it’s my biggest gripe most of the year is what they have had batting 6. And why I’ve been complaining most of the year. I’m now finally able to articulate it when thinking about where Gleyber should go in the order only took me 4 months

They are bottom 3rd OPS in the 6th spot. Gallo, Torres and Donaldson have been awful from the 6 spot. Hicks is at .700 OPS from the 6 spot. But 3 HR

If you have average at 7 and 8 spots. And mediocre or bad at 9, it’s not a big deal if 1-4 is top tier and 5-6 between 7-15 or better ranked in the league compared to everyone else’s 5th and 6th

If you tail off significantly at 6, it looks so much worse and stagnant than tailing off at 7 or 8

Give me pop 1-6. Competence at 7. And 8 or 9 could be whatever just hit a handful of homeruns a year. Yankees can have contact guys, but XBH and power must always be the calling card

Like I said, I get what you're saying, I just don't think you sacrifice Rizzo to help Gleyber. I think we need to decide if DJ or Benintendi is leadoff then it's Judge, Rizzo/Stanton. If it's DJ leading off, I hit Rizzo 3rd to split up the righties. If it's Benintendi, I hit Judge and Stanton after him with Rizzo 4th. Then I hit DJ/Benintendi that's not leading off at 5th. I like a contact guy there to push across one of the top guys. Then it's Gleyber. He's our 6th best hitter, I'm hitting him 6th.

And speaking of what wouldn’t give you confidence. What the new guy is doing right now.

1st pitch, HBP

Balk

2nd pitch, HBP

That's his first two pitches in the bigs. That might be a first.

 

[dblplay1212]

HBP
Balk
HBP
Walk
Walk

Quite the debut. That has to be the first time that's happened.

i get what Cashman meant by Monty wouldn't be a playoff starter but not as a long man or lefty specialist ? he'd rather see Luetge ?

アミーゴ are you a part time Mariner fan my brotha? It tripped me out when I saw you in the Mariners thread just now I thought I was back in the Yankee thread

I do remember you mentioning you attending the series in Seattle so it makes sense

I feel you I’m from NY but currently live in Jersey right on the border of PA probably 45 minutes from Citizens Bank. I chop it up with the Philly faithful all the time around here you would think I’m a Phillies fan myself. I disappointed a lot of people when the Yanks came to town last year and I had my Yankee fitted on

Yeah the usher where my seats are at TMobile couldn’t believe it when I came out a few weeks back in all Yanks gear for all 3 games

 

[dblplay1212]

I see you Cabrera

And he just got picked off lol

 

[dblplay1212]

Why is Chapman on the roster right now? He hasn't pitched in a week. Had rookies throw in a blowout last night, they definitely don't trust him in a close game. Just not sure why he's on the roster if there's no spit to use him.

 

[dblplay1212]

Oh no, Trevino.

 

[essential1]

The DRob use here is perfect
