While I agree with the clock speeding up the game, I am not happy with them altering long established basic tenets of the game. What separated BB...

I think the pitch clock is going to be a huge plus for Cole. When Cole gets in trouble he loses his rhythm and gets very slow on the mound. With the...

It's not paid by the MLB, it's paid by teams based on a revenue formula. The Yankees have been a contributor (disproportionate imo) from the outset. ...

Jones played some 1st base in college and has continued to get reps there

Anthony Volpe...ENVELOPE'... mailed it to another zip code'.

.....and that is the fear of the MiLB, some teams will cry poverty and cut back on minor leagues teams / spending.

What confounds the "weirdity", Volpes first ML start and his DP partner is DJ? How much time has he spent playing along side him? I would imagine...

Is Torres nursing a minor injury? DJ is more than capable 2B. Just weird timing.

Good point.

The only reason i'm leaning so high is because of the balanced schedule. Now we don't have to play so many games against the much stronger ALE and...

I believe it can go in either direction. Starting the season with pitching injuries is not an ideal start. Do the kids provide a spark or experience...

that's odd thats pretty much what i'm hoping for as well. I'd live with DJ every day at third and as much as I am excited about Dom, I won't be...

My apology. I read it wrong, I must have missed " When he starts to break down in the OF? You can move him to 1B." Again my apology. I reacted, in...

Well..... :confused: He has a -0.6 career WAR and a career slash: .221/.290/.386/.670. Maybe AAA fodder? Jeff Passan is reporting that the club...

You are right. I reread it. My bad, I overlooked the "predicted lineups for tomorrow" in clown's original post. I thought he/we were discussing...

I know, I heard. I'm just suggesting it as a plausible spot at some point in time. I think he would make a perfect lead off hitter, good contact and...

Maybe because they have a 6'3" defensive player of the year and platinum glove winner already playing the position? Just a thought. Simply being a...

Makes perfect sense.

How about : Anthony Volpe, SS Aaron Judge, RF Anthony Rizzo, 1B Giancarlo Stanton, DH Gleyber Torres, 2B Josh...

Clown I agree completely Cabrera earned the start. However His PT in CF is rather limited, I see him starting in LF, Judge in RF. Imo you want to...

True. Rock and a hard spot. He needs to play to regain value. Problem, he needs to play to regain value.

If they keep Hicks till August he gets his 10/5 rights and will be here till the end of his deal. I think our LF is starting in AAA

He actually worked out behind the plate this winter. The story goes something like he took a foul ball off the nuts and decided it wasn't for him. He...
