CC Sabathia threw 7 innings of 1 run ball. Bird homered twice. Judge homered. Andujar was 3-4 with a homer, and Gleyber lead off the second inning with his first career triple and started the scoring. Yanks roll 8-1.
We're all trying to avoid that. But the system is a little overcrowded andif a ninja deal can be made, I'd prefer that to lopping the top off the farm like we kind of did last year.
Sometimes I wonder if this team plays up or down to its level of competition.
If Frazier survived the deadline here’s the lineup I want: 2B Torres RF Judge 1B Bird DH/LF Stanton SS Didi C Sanchez 3B Andujar LF/DH Frazier CF Hicks/Gardner
That, of course, assumes Bird and Sanchez are hitting like they’re capabale of by then. Whoever plays center mostly depends on if they’re facing a righty or lefty.
What’s an example of an acceptable deal for a picher worth acquiring?
They have lost in the playoffs over the last five or so years because they don’t hit with RISP, not their pitching. I think the whole pitching thing is a myth, unless you have a ninja/cheating pitching coach who can transform guys and the Yankees don’t.
So to me playing Frazier has the chance to impact the team more than any acquisition.
I don't want them to make a trade, I just expect they will because they've been talking about it since they got Stanton. I don't know who the pitcher is, but, they have enough duplicative prospects to make a nice offer without huring the dawning dynasty, so hopefully, it's not anythibg painful.

Hope they don't trade Andujar in a deal for Degrom if the Mets are open to trading him to the Yankees.

Sometimes the best trades are the ones you don’t make.
