I understand and agree, in part. If the competition is truly a ST competition, imo Volpe is ahead. I have made it clear that they are all SSS stats....

I will agree he's a different pitcher without the sticky. HOWEVER, he is still one of the best in the game and I expect him to adapt, as he has been...

Mine is an unbiased opinion. I really don't care who gets the nod, in fact I wanted a name brand, MLB tested and post season proven player, ala...

:)

NEVER? As the old axiom goes: Never say never. There is danger speaking in absolutes. Thanks for the contribution, I'll take it for what it's...

Would you be shocked if Volpe gets the nod as the starting SS? If the competition is to be taken seriously, I think it's fairly clear Volpe has out...

Anthony Volpe, Oswald Peraza only making Yankees’ shortstop dilemma ‘harder’ By Mark W. Sanchez March 18, 2023 7:40pm Updated ...

Maybe. But consider : 1) It's every 4 years 2) National pride of fan base and players 3) World event. Similar to the World Cup in some ways.

Assuming essentially the same middling (#15 in MLB) offense as last season, I go with Volpe. His glove isn't going to hurt you and his bat would be a...

100% agree

I think we are in agreement, I would draw a distinction between consulting and decision making. Judge knows what a plyer is, can read the locker room...

Spencer Jones .333 on the Spring on the spring and both his hits today we're well over 100mph exit velo. Jones looked very overmatched early,...

@NYY_Prospects It was coming. Don’t overreact. He never had a chance. Jasson’s spring isn’t over, but it’s ramping down. That said, what a...

Here is a question, Hal said again yesterday that they see Volpe and Peraza as the future up the middle and sooner than later. Doesn't that say...

Good to hear.

I think the IKF experiment is destined for failure. He hasn't played 1 professional game in the OF, how can he suddenly be penciled in as a viable...

Do Bader, Florial, and Stanton fit in the equation? I was under the impression Stanton would see "considerable" time in the OF. When healthy, imo...

They will need every arm available.

Sounds like Dom is being sent to AA after tonight

I have advocated Flo should get an opportunity and last yr before the Bader trade, Flo was our best option to get Judge out of CF. Say whatever you...

I have zero clue why, but my gut keeps telling me Dunham is going to be a long-term piece for us. Not as some core piece, but something like Gardy...

Logic would dictate making the move sooner than later. However, maybe they are simply hedging their bet. Keeping Torres at 2B and take a wait and see...

1 Arias hit .210 in the DSL and hasn't had an AB stateside 2) He's not the best SS spec we have, that would be Wandy Asigen and he won't officially...

It may come down to a business decision in the so called SS competition. If they hold Volpe down they get another year of control, so it is possible,...

Love him or hate him, he's Yanks #2 for now and we need him to perform as such!

:cheers:

You know what Mush, you're right, u know exactly what Hal and Cashman think and want deep down inside where only they can hear it. Their outside...
