No. He doesn't need to edit. He has 84 thoughts on every topic. One of them is always correct.

Thats right, gotta love the way the guy thinks

We could always look at the bright side of the season being delayed. Barring any significant set back Judge, Stanton and Paxton will all be ready to go when there is an opening day, with Hicks only being a few weeks away. That puts us back at almost full strength. The bad news is German won't be back till around August. That part really sucks because this should have been a huge yr for him developmental wise that he won't get back. By the time he gets back it will be close to 11 months since he has thrown in a live game.

I wonder if the MLB will push back the trade deadline since there really won't be alot of time for teams to evaluate if there contenders or not and what their needs will be.

That’s assuming there will be any baseball at all .

[dayners81]

If were going to start *****ing and reporting sarcasm in here we may as well shut the whole thing down

Butthe bad part is that sometimes the BEST TEAMS ON PAPER don’t peak until Games 140-162.

The Yanks might be trailing after 90 games and could be on the outside looking in if they don’t have urgency right out of the gate.

If we only have 95-110 games then we really can’t be disappointed if we have a rotten 2020 season.

I’ve seen this before back in 1981. Some of the better teams didn’t have urgency until it was too late.

We might be a 3rd place team after 100 games during a normal season but the cream usually rises to the top and after 162 we win by 7 games.

In 2020 we will need urgency right out of the gate. Also, what if we have a very slow start and never fire and then get hot at games 90-100 and then just miss out by a game or two?

This is very concerning for me.

2021 can’t come sooner!

German is gone 1/2 the season. Scratch him.

In reality Monty and Cessna will be in the rotation. Wishful thinking for the kids. They are not ready.

1. Cole
2. Tanaka
3. Happ
4. Monty
5. Cessa

Also, Cashman should trade some of the young pitching talent and get a proven 30 year old. I’m tired of waiting for kids with regards to starting pitching.

Send King, Schmidt and Garcia and get a proven #1-2 starter. We don’t have time to wait for Sevy, German and Paxton. We get Cole for $324 million and then before March 1 we lose Paxton and probably Sevy for a while.

We have position players who can’t stay healthy. The window is closing before the season even starts. What a freaking debacle this season in already turning into.

If Frazier out plays Andujar this spring, it probably means he out played Tauchman as well.

That was my point. You also said you hope he gets a shot. Can't have it both ways.

Day, the new training has failed with Judge and Stanton.

You don’t seem to get it. These players are made of glass. I don’t care who is the training staff. These type of players, while very talented and terrific sculpted bodies, will always break down. They are all in the Ellsbury camp.

Awesome stuff Day. Thanks!

Did you ask about Stanton? Grade 1 calf strains don't usually take that long to heal.

Lasagna belongs in the pen. He isn't starter material imo. I think he can be a lights out reliever though.

I get your point but its one the players and especially Boone to create that sense of urgency right out of the gate. When they start the season we will be, barring any major set backs pretty much healthy, with Hicks close to being ready when the season starts. This team is loaded are really won't have an excise to play poorly for an extended period of time. I have a very tough time seeing how we could not possibly be a playoffs team even if the season is only 100 games or so.

My biggest concern is if Torres will be able to figure out his defensive issues for the season. If he continues to struggle as badly as he has during ST it would shock me if we didn;t make a big play for Lindor at some point

Didi was a nice safe option.

Let’s admit it!

Cashbox screwed up by not scratching a check to Didi.

That is best case scenario.

What if we are worse than China and Italy?

We could be doomed bro.

I don't think China or Italy has the pitching to beat us. Not to worry.

Loooool well done mazda

It also gives Judge, Mike, Hicks, Paxton, and the other 47 players who will likely get injured in the next few weeks extra time to heal up/fewer games missed.

It looks good with the pause that we might have the entire lineup intact for Opening Day, if we even get one.


But on the flip side these players are also injury prone and when they start ramping up workouts again you need to expect injuries to happen again to these injured riddled players, so much talent but always hit with injury. So if we get an Opening Day expect a few players not there.

And we have our entire roster around those players.

Send them all home Cashman!
