Giancarlo Stanton (29 years old), heads to the injured list with a stained left biceps. He joins: Dellin Betances (31 years old), right shoulder injury Did Gregorius (29 years old), Tommy John surgery Aaron Hick (29 years old), chronic back pain Jordan Montgomery (26 years old), Tommy John surgery Luis Severino (25 years old), right shoulder injury Jacoby Ellsbury (35 years old), his entire body is broken. The Yankees really need to fire every person involved with strength and conditioning. The Yankees have too many young players suffering too many injuries. Either the team is signing broken players, meaning they are failing in their assessment of a players health before they are brought here, OR the team is failing in their assessment of how to handle a player once they are here....either way, the team is failing in the department of keeping players healthy and on the field. I feel like no other team is suffering this many injuries to this many young KEY players. Add Andujar to your list. Unbelievable....torn labrun in shoulder, probably done for the year. Thank God we didn't sign Machado when he was BEGGING to come here

Can’t wait for tonight. I really think he’s getting a mixed reaction. Noticeable boo’s for sure.

Harper slugs his 3rd HR of the year in his first game back in Washington. Phillies fans started a "We Got Harper" chant that was very audible over the broadcast.
Muahahahahaha, I love it... Maggle. Also, Maikel Franco has 3 more HRs than Machado.
This is gonna be a fun year.

Through 5 games the Yankees are:
2-3. 6-37 with runners in scoring position. 45 total runners left on base.
And Boston is off to a 1-5 start, but they have no injuries so eventually they will heat up. The Yankees are missing a GOLDEN opportunity to create some distance before Boston starts steamrolling the rest of the league. If the Yankees were able to get out to a 7-10 game lead, it might take Boston at least a few weeks to catch up, and then a few more weeks to bury us, so we would could at least look good in the standings until maybe the end of May/beginning of June....but apparently that's not even going to happen.
Thank God we didn't get Manny Machado or Bryce Harper when they were begging to come here.....Mike Trauchman and Tyler Wade is the way to go for sure.

the bigger problem is the fairy dust that's been sprinkled on this team the last couple years. deep playoff runs and a 100-win season, so management believed they could get it done with the crew they had
you dont spend $300+million on a free agent because you think one of your players might get hurt. They didnt sign Machado because they believe Andujar is the future. They probably also want to keep Didi around as SS for a long term, so they signed Tulo as the insurance for him because he was already hurt.
Harper sweepstakes was done last year when they traded for Stanton. Like it or not, Cashman chose Stanton over Harper. Because you aren't playing Harper in CF and they clearly love Aaron Hicks and think he's the key part of a championship team (lmao) because they gave him a long deal.......aaaaand then he gets injured.
I just dont think the Harper/Machado decisions are to blame here specifically. The payroll of the injured players on this team is more than some of the normal teams in baseball. The offseason was fine then all of a sudden everyone started getting hurt at once. The only positives that have come from these first few games is the pitching. Hasn't been lights out but at least nobody has gotten rocked the way Boston's starters have been

Hasn't been lights out but at least nobody has gotten rocked the way Boston's starters have been The Yankees should have traded Andujar for Gerrit Cole when they had the chance. And clearly even after his 2018 SHOULD HAVE BEEN Rookie of the Year season, they clearly didn't have enough faith in his defense because he was either benched or getting pulled from PLAYOFF GAMES in favor of Adeiny Hechavarria because they felt like Andujar was incapable of fielding. I think the Yankees didn't sign Machado because they had plans to sign Nolan Arenado, but he signed the extension and that flamed out. Yanks were going to give Andujar this year to either improve the defense, or he'd be gone and it would be Arenado. And honestly, they traded for the wrong Marlins OF, should have gotten Chrisian Yelich.

Well that was about the worst inning I've ever listened to. Robertson came on, gave up a base hit and walked three straight. Phillies lose for the first time.

Tulowitzki hurt.
It's almost comical at this point.

Giancarlo Stanton (29 years old), heads to the injured list with a stained left bicep. Surely he could've just washed it? No need to go on the DL for that.

WTF! Three two out errors by Newman just lead to 6 unearned runs and Taillon getting hit in the head with a comebacker by Rizzo. At least it seems like Taillon was ok as he finished the inning. Grr!

Question for anyone who goes to Wrigley. Location wise, is there a big difference between sections 26 and 29? i'm looking to see a game there in August and was curious if the $65 difference was worth it

Chris Davis finally gets a hit after 1000 ABs and of course, it was against Rick Porchello.
