Disappointed by his slow start. Time to give him a few days off and get Kingery some at-bats. I really want Kingery to break out a bit this year.

Who's ready for tonight? Chris Sale and James Paxton toeing the slab in the Bronx as the Yankees and Red Sox battle for last place! You know Sale is really bad when even we’re hitting him.

Who's ready for tonight? Chris Sale and James Paxton toeing the slab in the Bronx as the Yankees and Red Sox battle for last place! You know Sale is really bad when even we’re hitting him. I can't figure out what's wrong with Chris Sale. His first couple of starts, the velocity was way down. Record low K's for him. Lot's of home runs. Very uncharacteristic. But I know for a fact that at least 3 out of the 5 HR's he's given up this season are on the changeup. Could be more, but I don't see every Boston game. So last night, he's throwing 95-97 against us. The first 2 innings, he's fine. Looks like regular ace Chris Sale. Velocity was GREAT. Then in the third, he starts messing around with that changeup again, gives up the HR to Frazier, and it all goes down hill for him. I'm a Yankee fan obviously, so I mean, I could care less and for our sake I hope he keeps pitching poorly. But he might want to abandon that changeup, or at least stop throwing it so much in games until he works out the mechanical issues he's having with it. We couldn't touch his fastball or slider. He really should have stuck with that. But again, it is what it is. The key last night was Paxton. 8 innings of 2 hit, no run, 12K ball....when the pitcher is mowing them down and hitters are continuing to tack on runs, the game is over. Paxton got his, it would be nice if Happ got his redemption tonight, because he's had a real bad start to the season.

Daveed Price says the Red Sox may sell if things dont get better, as Dave Dombrowski emptied the farm for their World Series championship. I dont see too many teams who can take on these contracts
David Price-4 yrs/$124 million remaining
JD Martinez-4 yrs/$88 million remaining
Nate Eovaldi-4 yrs/$68 million
Chris Sale-5 yrs/$145 million extension starts next year
Xander Bogaerts-6 yrs/$120 million extension starts next year

Yankees IL by position might be better than any actual team:
C: Gary Sanchez 1B: Greg Bird 2B: Troy Tulowitzki SS: Didi Gregorius 3B: Miguel Andujar LF: Giancarlo Stanton CF: Aaron Hicks RF: Aaron Judge
Starting Pitchers: Luis Severino Jordan Montgomery
Relief pitchers: Dellen Betances
Pretty remarkable. I've never seen a team suffer this many injuries. But it's beyond bad luck at this point. There is something fundamentally wrong with the Yankees strength and conditioning and I think the problem is that these guys work out too much. I think they are all trying to be too big and too strong and their bodies are lacking the flexibility and recovery time.
I really think baseball players should only practice BASEBALL ACTIVITIES, i.e, throwing, catching, fielding, hitting, running, etc...THINGS YOU NEED TO DO ON A BASEBALL FIELD.
Crossfit and bench pressing 500 lbs doesn't really probably help that much. Babe Ruth never worked out.
Gary Sanchez was FINE, then he put on 25 lbs of muscle and now he can't block balls in the dirt and he's always injured. I don't think it's a coincidence. His body lacks the flexibility to adequately block the plate, and his muscles are so tight that they are always straining.

Clint Frazier day to day with sprained ankle. How are these guys so soft that they literally can't even move without getting hurt?
Hopefully Luke Voit doesn't wipe his ass too roughly when he takes his morning dump. He could go on the DL with some sort of rectal contusion.
I'm over this season already. Can we just fast forward to 2020 and do a reset and hope the guys aren't a bunch of wussies next year?

Chad Green is broken. Maybe they should unplug him and plug him back in?
Despite everything, the Bad News Yankees keep winning with the D-Squad. Incredible that with 13 ALL-STARS on the DL that the Yankees are 3 games over .500, 2 games out of 1st place, and 5 games ahead of the Red Sox.
The backups are really stepping up. Getting Sanchez back tonight will help, even though he's lazy. Maybe Stanton back in a week or so.
Judge is probably out until at least July, though.

Clint Frazier is now officially on the IL, with a "tear in his ankle".
Giancarlo Stanton somehow developed a shoulder injury while on the IL for a biceps strain...so he got a shot in the shoulder and they're going to play it by ear.
We got so many injuries our IL guys are starting to get hurt while already hurt!
But somehow, they keep on winning. CC wasn't good and Sanchez had a horrific game....but the backups saved the day again. Assuming the Yankees do eventually get the bulk of these players back healthy and keep them that way, we could have some TREMENDOUS trade chips at the deadline. These guys are PROVING they can play in the big leagues and contribute to a team that is now ONE GAME out of first place. Yanks could flip a few if we have a need, or hang on to them for organizational depth in case we suffer more injuries.

Maybe the Yankees can sign him and stick him at AAA for insurance. You KNOW Gary Sanchez isn't staying healthy for the entire rest of the season, and I don't care how bad D'Arnaud has been playing, he can't be worse than Kyle Higashioka.
And even if Sanchez does stay healthy....he catches probably about the same as a blind person would with all the passed balls. His future is as a DH. I love the Home Runs he hits, but he's a lazy player.
D'Arnaud is only 30. Maybe somebody can fix him.

Holy crap! Renfroe with the SLAM! yes! BEAT LA! GET YO ASSES BACK UP THE 5! Best game I’ve ever been to in person. The ebb and flow. Wins are wins though I guess. Great game and killer finish, still waiting for Renfroe to emerge with consistency but he certainly has shown the promise. Pimped that one too.
