He's in my lineup today so...

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Fri Jun 25, 2021 5:24 pm

So far so good.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Fri Jun 25, 2021 7:57 pm

And a few rally killing double plays, including to end the game. Thanks

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Jun 27, 2021 12:58 pm

If people in the Yankees organization aren’t embarrassed, they should be fired, traded, or shot out of a cannon and into the sun.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Mon Jun 28, 2021 6:41 am

You know, just when the Yankees seem to be getting things on track they lay a stinker like they did in Boston. That's why it's been hard to get momentum on your firing request Chi.

BTW, is Cole getting affected by this sticky-gate?

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Jun 28, 2021 7:13 am

I think Cole has been affected by the fact that he gets zero run support and he is second guessing every pitch he throws instead of just letting it fly.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Thu Jul 01, 2021 4:10 am

He needs a rest.

Or a demotion.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Thu Jul 01, 2021 7:19 am

That was brutal last night. Giving up a GS...and to a lefty...is unbelievable.

His fastball is flat and he can’t throw any other pitch for a strike.

Watch for him to hit the 10-day IL with a dead arm or some other such nonsense.

Yankees traded for a DBacks outfielder!

Ketel Marte???

LOL of course not. Instead they got Tim Locastro and his .170 batting average to replace Brett Gardner’s .180 batting average.

Well, at least they got a rainout today.

Full hearts! Can’t lose!

LOL fire Boone AND Cashman. Just fucking clean house. This is a total embarrassment.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Jul 04, 2021 5:17 pm

But Hal blamed the players?

Chapman is pulling a Kenley Jansen.

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sun Jul 04, 2021 5:39 pm

Did I read that Chapman is an all-star?

Ha!!!!!

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Jul 04, 2021 5:54 pm

Big Ha.

Guess the last 5 innings or so didn’t count.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sat Jul 10, 2021 7:18 pm

Amazing performance by Cole tonight. Yelled at Boone to stay in.

99 Mph on his last pitch which he threw almost 130 pitches.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sat Jul 10, 2021 7:19 pm

Gerritt Cole is my motherfucker.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sat Jul 10, 2021 7:21 pm

That was the best pitching performance I’ve seen in a long time.

Not going to Chapman was the best move Boone hasn’t made all year.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sat Jul 10, 2021 7:25 pm

He couldn’t go to Chapman. Not after Cole told him to pound sand up his ass.

I mean, it's the Astros without the trashcans. Is it that impressive?

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Jul 11, 2021 4:52 am

Guess not if even the Yankees can shut them out 2 games in a row.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Jul 11, 2021 5:26 am

No trash cans… but are they being checked for buzzers? They still have the #1 offense in baseball and I don’t trust those fuckers.

Boston neither.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Jul 11, 2021 2:51 pm

In typical Yankee fashion they left 400 guys on base and let a circus midget beat them.

Fuck

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Thu Jul 15, 2021 1:47 pm

Apparently the whole team has Covid or something.

Another feather in the cap for this sucky fucking team.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Jul 25, 2021 1:19 pm

They should be sellers at the deadline.

Go with the young guys next year.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Tue Jul 27, 2021 10:05 pm

So they trade for a reliever… and then trade two away for a PTBNL??

Did Cashman have a series of mini strokes like Lute did?

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Wed Jul 28, 2021 5:41 pm

Yankees are getting Joey Gallo.

In other news, Aaron Judge was scratched from the starting lineup late and Yankees Twitter lost its collective mind thinking the trade involved him. But now, strangely he’s pinch hitting in the 4th inning.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Thu Jul 29, 2021 3:39 pm

Report out that Rizzo got dealt to the Yankees.

That’s crazy…

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Thu Jul 29, 2021 5:20 pm

So I have both Voit and Rizzo on my FB team. Fucking great.

Buh bye Luke.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Thu Jul 29, 2021 6:13 pm

So far the Yankees have given up 6 minor leaguers for 2 All-Stars and only one of the prospects they dealt was a top-10 guy.

Cashman coming through because he knows I wanted to see his ass fired (out of a cannon).

No idea what happens to Voit. Maybe he gets dealt. Maybe he’s more injured than they are letting on. But he has no position now.

gronk4heisman · Post by **gronk4heisman** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 6:16 am

I am not sold on the Gallo addition, we have enough high strike out low average guys but I do like the RIzzo addition. Probably just me and my complete hatred of the three outcome baseball we see today.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 8:18 am

Gallo is good. His defense is above average and he obviously hits for power. But other than that (and the fact he’s a lefty) he’s a rally killer just like the rest of the Yankees because he doesn’t put the ball in play often enough. So he doesn’t change the team’s handicap of being purely station to station and waiting for a homer.

Rizzo is a different story. Obviously he’s a great clubhouse guy. And his defense should be an improvement over Voit’s (but maybe not LeMahieu’s). He hits the ball to all fields and puts the ball in play to move runners over and score them from 2nd or 3rd. He also gives the Yankees a lot of lineup flexibility. He puts Odor on the bench which gives them a power bat in a PH role. He allows DJ to play 2nd full time. He can DH when needed (Stanton needs a day off, DJ moves to 1st, Odor plays 2nd), and he leaves Gardner at the end of the bench as a late-inning lefty insert.

Overall I like the moves. They could use one more bullpen arm though.

97cats · Post by **97cats** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 2:35 pm

please tell me about Janson Junk and Elvis Peguero?

Heaney is a middle of the rotation lefty with a good breaking ball. he is wildly inconsistent due to nagging injuries mostly but when healthy is a pretty good middle of the rotation guy.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Fri Jul 30, 2021 2:49 pm

Honestly, I’ve never heard of them.

I’m hoping Heaney needs a change of scenery and that it will right the ship. Otherwise I’m guessing he’s going to be in a pitching platoon with Sevy Garcia.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sat Jul 31, 2021 1:15 am

Heaney has been bleh with the Angels. Yankees needed LH bats desperately so I like the moves especially Rizzo. Gallo is another high strike out hitter so while this team might squeak into the Playoffs I don’t see them doing much damage against top pitching staffs.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sat Jul 31, 2021 6:22 pm

Rizzo has been nothing short of amazing these past two games.

Gallo………. eh……… not so much.

Don’t tell me I made a correct Yankee move (keeping Rizzo and dumping Voit).

I’m in shock.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Aug 01, 2021 4:42 pm

Voit begins a rehab assignment tomorrow. But it looks like his at bats will be severely cut.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Thu Aug 05, 2021 7:28 pm

18-8 over their last 26 games. Best record in baseball.

1.5 games out of the wildcard.
5.5 games out of the division.

Exactly 1/3 of the season left to play.

And Boston is in a free fall.

If it wasn’t for how well the Jays and Rays were playing, I’d almost start to feel good.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Aug 08, 2021 7:54 am

THEY
NEED
TO
STOP
FUCKING
AROUND

They’re on the verge of getting back into the playoffs but they keep passing around Covid like it’s a stripper at a Minnesota Vikings boat party.

Cut that shit out!

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Sun Aug 08, 2021 8:08 am

Lol. Of course this happens after I dropped Voit.

It’s a conspiracy I tell you…

Alieberman · Post by **Alieberman** » Sun Aug 08, 2021 11:16 am

Please don't kill Rizzo

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Sun Aug 08, 2021 11:32 am

They’re trying!

Buncha assholes. It’s his fucking birthday!

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Mon Aug 09, 2021 9:20 pm

Wow I hate this team.

Change of scenery didn’t do Heaney any good. He’s trash.

EastCoastCat · Post by **EastCoastCat** » Thu Aug 12, 2021 5:45 pm

I didn’t think it was a good pickup. He struggled with the Halos as well.

Judge sending one deep into the corn stalks was cool.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Tue Aug 17, 2021 4:51 pm

Luke Voit ain’t going nowhere.

I guess the Yankees are just going to have to play Stanton in the outfield because they now have two first basemen.
