Yep. No problem, I deleted my quote as well.
I question the authenticity. Who the F is Harold? What are his credentials?
PS. Turns out "Harold" is a disgruntled Braves fan and big time Atlanta homer.
Really?

Thanks in part to Michael Lewis’ book “Moneyball” and the subsequent movie starring Brad Pitt, Beane became the face...
I have said similar. I think it's more about a quality product than a brand.
Day, I hate appearing as a Cashman apologist. BUT does Cashman deserve any credit? If not him then who? Did Hal make the deals? Hank may have authorized the deal, as does Hal on most big money...
Nicky Yanks have 15 blown saves.
I do agree the offense is inconsistent and prone to power failure, but they AIN'T blowing the saves!
Where exactly did he bury the hatchet? ;)
FWIW, it's one more than most!
IDK Nicky, I'm concerned with the pen.
The good news, they still have the second best record in the AL. They lead the AL East by 10 games. The bad news, they are playing like ****. Judge still has NO protection. The once bullet proof BP...
AL East rivals will begin a big three-game series on Monday night in the Bronx with the Tampa Bay Rays taking on the New York Yankees. Tampa Bay earned a series win over the Baltimore Orioles with a...
Best explanation I've heard thus far. So Cashman got scammed by his protege Ng? Cashman is many things, arrogant, impulsive at times, egotistical at times but I can't say he's stupid. Is it possible...
You're right. Nick ain't that mellow! :D 4:30 am he's on his second pot of rocket fuel washing down a handful of Adderall. Meth for lunch?
This is what I don't get. They had Florial in house, assuming he was ready, why trade Monty? Do they not trust giving Florial the job full time? Losing Monty for an OFer (as good as he is), that...

With the acquisition of Bader where does that leave Florial? Is he in the plans for the future or is he now expendable? I wonder why they went after Bader with Florial so close? Is Hicks the 4th or...
Fangraphs has him listed as a 0 DRS, 0.3 UZR, 10.1 UZR150 in 95.2 innings from 2020-22 at the ML level. My guess is they don't keep comprehensive defensive stats on the minor leagues.
...
If we are honest with ourselves we must concede Bader is one of the best defensive center fielders in the game (plus-38 DRS in center in his career) and a constant threat to steal on the bases,...
I have to agree with much of the preceding comments re: Bader. A 4th OF on the IL that MAY be back in Sept. for a stalwart in the rotation. Makes sense. :rolleyes: I think Cash is spending way too...
My thought as I was reading the preceding paragraphs.
I think Nicky raises a valid point. His BB rate is higher now than earlier in season. Seems to be a command issue. Imo Holmes closing was always a temporary situ giving Chapman time to find his...
Volpe and Peraza are the only two Yankees farmhands who appeared on Baseball America’s most recent ranking of the league’s top 100 prospects. Dominguez checks in fifth in the New York system, per BA....
Can we all agree now that Gallo is gone, he wasn't the problem with the offense? :D
Holmes has **** the bed it seems, although can't deny he was lights out for a long stretch. As Chapman regains form maybe they make the move.
