Yanks Stuff

Alright, still pretty shaken from Dustin Fowler's tragic injury last night, and pretty furious that the White Sox had their OF set up so that could happen.  Praying here that he makes it all the way back.

In other news, CC threw a sim game yesterday and said he's ready to come back. I believe, and his loss, combined with Girardi's picking the wrong guys to take starts and just about every other role, has created the  June Swoon we've experienced this season.  Hopefully, once CC is back, they'll put Cessa in the pen, as he's clearly a once through the order guy.

These injuries have probably screwed up any chance the Yanks have to make a good trade for anyone or anything this season.  They've needed the prospect and might still need more of them, and you don't really want the Yanks reaching down to trade Florial or Acevedo or something, do you?

So let's hope for a big July.  Good IFA signings on Sunday,  one or two day three signings by the seventh, and more breakouts and continued breakouts from the kids.

Yeah, kind of still nauseous about it.

It should never have happened. The fields should be designed to protect the players. I wonder how actionable this is? I know he's insured, but his career trajectory has been altered.

If anything positive is to come from his and Torres's injuries, I hope it's used as a point to drive home to the prospects not to do stupid things like slide head first into home plate or risk bodily harm trying to steal and out.
