Apache 51 Posted February 8, 2020 Share Posted February 8, 2020 Waiting for players to get healthy seems to be the norm. How about Severino, his time was limited upon return from injury? German better keep his act together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the long run that’s a good thing for the Yankeess if they decide to resign him we should be ok with Cole-Severino-Tanaka-Montgomery first half of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustEndTheSuffering Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 I’m not at all concerned about the regular season. Of course nothing is guaranteed but let’s get everybody back healthy and not rushed because we have the depth to survive. It’s a long season and the goal is a World Series championship.

They’re unfortunately gonna try Happ again which I think is a mistake. Not only because he sucked as a starter last year but he was effective as a reliever out of the pen and can be a guy who gives you 2-3 innings as a long reliever I’d much rather see then give someone from the minors a shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not for what he did, that is crap. But, last year he definitely wore down, that shouldn't be an issue this year. If Paxton really did have a partial discectomy, he is looking at 6 months or he is risking re-injuring the disc and needing a second surgery, so he could be all the way out to mid August (I don't know when/if he had the surgery yet). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s pretty much the next Jeter already as far as the fans and organization view him. The Yankees put in the Judges chamber already, they’re all in on this guy. If anyone is getting traded it’ll be Stanton and the Yankees will just have to eat like half the contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That works out to about 6 inn/start. The problem is these kids don't throw enough coming up through their various systems. Seaver, Cone, Darling all have said, numerous times over their many years as broadcasters, that the key to their success and longevity was throwing a lot. Teams today are training guys to run 6 furlongs, and then are shocked when they can't run a mile and a 1/4. Kids today are bigger and stronger than ever before, take better care of their bodies, etc. Teams have to stop babying these guys, and let them throw. Trust me, they can all do it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is amazing how guys in the 1920s-1980s could throw so many more innings. I know, guys today throw harder, the ball parks are smaller, but it used to be tons of guys threw 250+ innings. Now, throwing 200 is a major accomplishment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current crop of pitchers go max effort from first inning to their last pitch. They put much more strain on their arms than pitchers in the past that would look to go 7-8-9 innings. Conserving bullets. Kids pitch to radar guns and that is how that get signed, promoted and advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they have German coming back pretty early in the year and Paxton won't be gone that long either. They have depth, but it would be nice if the team could just stay healthy.
