Who is the one that the Yankees refuse to comment on in regards to their future plans for 2021? Who before 2019 had a career era well over 5 and never had a full season as a starter before 2019 ? Despite all that you still think him getting a spot in the Yankees rotation is a no brainer . All because he got 18 wins during a season the Yankees hit over 300 hrs . And you think you can’t possibly wrong here ? What the hell makes you such expert ?

What makes you think you are?

If you read his post, he clearly states, "From the looks of it". This implies that at face value, on paper... but is not definitive.

Every other poster read what Day wrote as a positive take and hopefulness regarding German.
Every poster aside from you, read it the same way.
You chose to make an arrogant, inflammatory, ignorant comment for the sake of being a tool (The one thing you do extremely well)
So yes, you are an arse for doing your usual, incompetent reading and spin.

To be clear, if German continues to pitch like that, does that in spring training, returns to the rotation and continues to pitch that way in the 5 spot, he will still be an upgrade behind Cole. Another thing you are not good at is simple math. There are 4 spots behind Cole. German pitching in any of those slots, means he is pitching behind Cole in the rotation.

Math and Reading Jorge. Math and reading.

That doesn't mean our #2 that means in any spot behind Cole. I am fairly confident that a healthy German, which he appeared to be, is at least better right now than guys like King, Nelson, Loaisiga and Yajure who would be in line for the 5th starter spot if the season started today.

Exactly how anyone who has the ability to read using logic, took your post.

This is a remarkably stupid post. And yet another shining example of simply not admitting you misunderstood Day's post or that you were just feeling like being a dick.

You were actually tolerable and making solid comments for a while. What happened, you get bored? Cranky? Piss your diaper?

Posada, just say you misunderstood and were wrong about my post and this can all stop.

I've misread/ misunderstood things more times than i can count and a simple my bad does the trick just fine.

Turning around, sticking your heals in the ground to defend an indefensible position, making multiple disruptive comments, calling names, trolling and baiting like you have is completely uncalled for

Posada has again, painted himself into a corner reminiscent of the color, orange.

BREAKING: New York Mets second baseman Robinson Cano has tested positive for a performance-enhancing drug and will be suspended for the entire 2021 season, sources familiar with the situation tell ESPN. He will forfeit a $24 million salary. News story will be up soon at ESPN.(Jeff Passan)

Yes I know this is mets news

But I posted it for 2 reasons.

1. Former Yankee
2. May open the door for DJ to the Mets as the 2B(if they go after him)

Isn't that the 2nd or 3rd time now for Cano? how many times do you get before the life time ban.

I completely agree this now opens the door wide open for DJ or Lindor now

Its his second.

I remember years ago Leo said he had sources linked Cano to that biogenesis ped scandal. Many didn't believe him. Later on, he got popped in Seattle and did 50 game ban, now on Mets he has the 162 ban. Next time would be life time.

Michael Kay just said he's been told DJ LeMahieu's agent is pushing for a five year deal, and he believes the Yankees will go three years, maybe four if that means getting it done. Sounds similar to what I've heard in terms of how far the Yankees may go.

So.........Leo successfully posited that Cano was juicing years ago and subsequently got laughed off these ‘hallowed’ boards with the requisite screams of execration about “proof” and “data.”

24 seasons and counting.

4 years will be a stretch dj will be 33 next year and at some point age will take over.. and at what price 20 million 4 years that is paying to much... dj defensive skills are already eroding at 2b and gleyber is not a ss....3 years is the most the yanks should offer d.j
