That Ellsbury move was one of his worst of all time in my opinion, especially in the wake of letting Cano go.

This Twins trade was not nearly as bad as that. The move itself was all upgrades. At...

Rizzo has gone the opposite direction and has me thinking about Olson and Freddie Freeman again... but I hope he turns it around

I've been one of the biggest "Joey Gallo is not right for this team" guys since the start of the season. I still feel that way, but over the last 15 games Gallo is hitting .268/.388/.634/1.022 with 5...

I agree I'd rather the $50 million go yo Verlander. That being said... the Yankees' pitching really could not be better this season, and Donaldson has been better with the bat than Urshela, though I...

I don't think he will make it to the Yankees at this rate.

If there were other options I'd agree. Maybe there will be. Maybe they sign Xander Bogaerts instead, or go with Trea Turner or Correa if he turns his season around. Maybe they make a couple of minor...

I'm sure that's what he thought. It was a smart defensive play by the White Sox in fairness, and I'm sure many would not have cut that ball off and thrown to third. As you said, however, still the...

This is an oversimplification of my reasoning. "There's no one else" is only one of the reasons why you have to overpay for Judge if someone else gives him a huge offer. One of many, which I've...

As the catcher in that scenario you can tell very easily if you have a legitimate shot at getting that guy out at home. It's the catchers call whether you cut it or not. My guess is he could either...

I think that logic is flawed. The defense is always gonna get that out at home if they can. If the ball was cut, it wasn't because they thought they could get the sure out at third, it was because...

What do I think Judge is worth? 8 years, $280 million. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets more than that though.

I'm not saying he's worth 10 and 350. I'm saying the Yankees need to beat any offer on the market. If the offer is 10 and 350, they need to beat that too. It doesn't mean he's worth that much... but...

At some point you have to fork over big money for a big player as a big market team who wants to be competitive. If his market value is 10/350, then that's what you need to pay to get him. Plain and...

That IKF baserunning blunder cost them the game. Took the wind out of the sails of the comeback.

Wrong thread

I'm sure the Yankees plan to match anything he is offered from anyone else. If not the fanbase will be livid.

According to thus article Wells' defense is...

I am curious though if this is more of a league wide things with the deadening of the balls and pitchers throwing at such high velocities. It seems hitting is down in the majors overall too.

Hitting prospects definitely taking a step back this year with a few notable exceptions (mainly Wells).

I'm not worried about him yet, especially with Blake here to help him.

As for trading Miggy, I'm all for it. I'm just not sure what kind of return they'd get for him unless he was packaged with...

I just booked my ticket for the tinker tape parade.

Colin, you and are were going back and forth and discussing. We disagreed, attacked each other's views, and basically agreed to disagree at the end. I see nothing wrong with our exchange, and I hope...

Honorable mention: Rookie of the year, Bull Durham, Angels in the Outfield, 61

Yes I do. It's still early. I think he was 2/4 and he went up to .222 or something close to that. It wouldn't take long for him to get up to .250. A couple more multi-hit games. If he continues to...

And sure enough my "eye test" is supported by Torres' batted ball profile. So far, he is destroying his career hard hit % (50% compared with...
