While I agree alone that means very little. The reason I think it means something is his very close relationship with Matsui. He looks at Matsui as...

True. There was a time when teams would shy away from a FA or international player once they heard or knew Yank were interested. They feared George's...

Yankees sent a group of their A team scouts and Kevin Reese ( the head of the farm system) were there scouting the Japanese team. Yamamoto, Sasaki,...

Premature? If it truly is a competition one could argue at this juncture Volpe has won. Peraza is already on the 40 man as I mentioned previously, he...

Munetaka Murakami: “Ideally I’d like to play for a West Coast team. But I am also interested in the New York Yankees” ...

You are right, I expect a move will be made to make room. A likely trade for pitching that may involve IKF, Donaldson or possibly Torres. (Donaldson...

LOL Do we have video?

Cashman taking responsibility for the Montas trade turning out so poorly. Hell must have frozen over

No reason he can't. Imo they both make the team. Who they move to make room and how that happens remains to be seen.

I agree. My point I don't care who gets the nod. I would be happy with either. HOWEVER, if it truly is a competition for, imo Volpe has out played...

Nicky relax. I don't have a dog in this race. I do agree Volpe has out played Peraza "in ST." If it truly is a competition the winner imo is clear....

According to Peraza: The 22-year-old is wearing contact lenses for the first time after the Yankees sent him to an eye doctor after he struggled...

Sending Peraza down (NO indication this has even been suggested) in order to give him time to adjust MAY simply be a safety issue. Isn't it possible...

not even NPL, he's playing professionally in the DR

Peraza is dealing with a vision issue in his left eye. He had trouble with the eye chart and was sent for more testing. He was 20/60 in the left eye...

D.R. correct?

Fat finger. To err is human. I guess one could argue 28 after Sept. 1.

25 or 40 man? I believe Peraza is already on the 40. If you are suggesting the 25 man, who goes to make room? IKF? Torres? JD? Rortvedt? Do you cut...

I was thinking IKF or Torres (although I hate the thought but it would make sense.). Have Volpe and Peraza as the middle infield. DJ as the utility...

Not exactly. Yankees getting pitching in return and relieve the logjam in the infield.

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.
