Not ignoring anything.

Florial somewhat, Peraza no. He definitely has talent and ability. He simply was not the pick coming out of ST. I don't beleive, as some do, that his...

Snarky? They were your words.

As mentioned above, should options be explored for Cabrera hitting .201, IKF .208, DJ .251, Donaldson .125 ?

Really? This convo started with your comment: "Volpe in almost 200 ABs, not even at .200/.300..ouch " which you followed with by way of an...

Clearly, after 182 AB's many here have written him off and clamoring for Peraza, who has a .188/.316/.219/.535 ML slash this season, in limited...

Sums it up well. https://twitter.com/i/status/1662095483026784256

Much younger? 1 maybe 2 years at best. Many, many players don't pan out, in fact the majority. Less than 10% of minor league players spend any...

The commonality and context revolves around the fact they were all rookies, not if viable alternatives exist.

Nick, the players I mentioned FINISHED their rookie season with the numbers stated! Jete finished strong, posting a .314/.370/.430/.800 line. ...

Roberto Clemente had a .255/.284/.382 slash line his rookie season. Mike Schmidt batted under .200 and struck out 136 times his rookie season....

A fan is a fan is a fan.

This is my last GDT. I am hopeful someone will step up and continue the tradition.

I don't disagree. Peraza has been scalding the ball. Unlike Florial, Peraza can and likely will hit ML pitching.

I agree with the notion of a shake up, but having Florial "work on his hitting" at the ML level seems counter productive.

Yes he did.

OK and who fills the void in the infield?

I agree with the logic, but Soto will demand more than Giolito. So do you empty the farm ++ and mortgage the future for Soto? I would love a Soto...

Great to hear he's having a good season. The Yankees top prospects that year. Where are they now? 1) Torres 2) Florial 3) Adams 4)...

I would give Higgy and Volpe a pass. Imo Cabrera's versatility earns him a pass.

I agree. I also agree with earlier statements re: a solid core. Problem is I don't see the "next" core emerging. Some talent in AA and AAA. Volpe is...

I agree, Yankees post season record is second to none. They simply have not grabbed the brass ring in a very long time. Most Yankee fans define a...

I agree as well. The one distinction, develop a farm to make trades. NOT to pass on premium talent hoping and praying on spects. Every players won't...

What I said was I don't accept mediocrity. As a life long fan and 40 yr+ season ticket holder my expectations are high. I don't accept mediocrity...
