maury77 Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 The Yankees kept me sane for a while as the Jets have floundered most of my life, but I get the sense that management is just content to field a playoff team that gets eliminated in the first round on an annual basis. Are they really counting on Severino as the number 2 pitcher this year? That guy chokes more than a Jeffrey Epstein associate. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is Hal he views Cashman as family and refuses to fire him and seems content with making the playoffs...Cashman is the most overrated GM in sports history.

shawn306 Posted February 24, 2022 Share Posted February 24, 2022 Morris was dealt to the Reds for Tim Leary. Yuck !!! That deal is right up there with Jay Buhner for Ken Phelps. As far as O'Neill is concerned. To me not a big deal. No one (Except for LaTroy Hawkins briefly after catching a load of you know what) has worn 21. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maxman Posted March 13, 2022 Author Share Posted March 13, 2022 As of right now Gio Urshela is the Yankees starting short stop. Not sure how Cashman still has a job. And they are going to roll Gary Sanchez back out there. Get a damn catcher already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the Yanks gave Sanchez over two years to get back on track and he didn't. This catcher the Yanks got is a singles guy...I don't know much about his defense. So, does that mean Donaldson plays 3rd? Who is playing SS and 1st base? Edit: I stand corrected this guy we got (I'm not looking up the spelling...lol) is not going to catch, he's our SS...oh well.

Gio Is one of the best fielding the position and has shown to be a clutch hitter in big situations and we let him go for a guy in decline and 7 years older ???????? Good they got rid of Sanchez since he's worth nothing at this stage. Urshela was one of my favorite Yankees .... Cashman should be lined up and Shot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One day at 1st, one day at 2nd, one day at 3rd. Plus you still have Voit hanging around. I think the Yankees are not done dealing yet. We may see Torres go, Voit will probably go and maybe even DJ.

I also say cut the bullsh*t with Volpe if he's this so called blue chipper then bring him up and let him play like they did with Jeter. I always said if Jeter came up now he would be rotting in the minors since he didnt hit many homers in the minors 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope they give Higgy the chance to start, every time the guy looked like he was about to turn the corner hitting they put Sanchez back in. I would much rather have a top defensive catcher like Higgy than a clown like Sanchez was. I think if they give him a chance he can be a 20 homer guy and hit for a decent average along with top handling of the staff and defense. Kind of a Joe Girardi type but with more Homeruns. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My head is still spinning they got rid of Gio for a 36 year old washed up 3rd baseman when Gio at this stage is probably a better hitter for average in the last 3 years he hit .314 - .298 - and .270 along with being clutch and one of the best fielding 3rd baseman in the game 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
