Message: [QUOTE="mauconnfan, post: 2296989, member: 489"] Ya think? Love this kid came around first after the Chapman HR and showed real emotion, didn't watch anything was running full steam and then started clapping and almost a little dance LOL. Kid can flat out hit 2 more last night. Just keep Hanley away from him he doesn't need to see how this idiot acts. What I like even more he doesn't have that muscly,fake baseball body where these kids come up and think HR's and K's are fine now. He looks like the old time baseball player, a real hitter who drives it anywhere it's pitched with HRs as an afterthought. A good one here! Having said that the Yanks continue to be a stupid team and Joe a fairly stupid manager. For the life of me knowing the kid can hit how do you throw him fastball #3 in a row? Baseball 101 he took #1 down the middle, couldn't catch up to the 2nd one and knew that and adjusted. Now a good hitter does adjust right so what does he do, well he starts the bat even earlier. So if you throw a breaking ball of any sort on the 3rd pitch he would have buckled, best possible scenario was awful contact. Even if he fouled it off he now has to guess what is next. This was the epitome of the Yankees as of late just plain stupid managing and catching. Then again let's PH Ellsbury in that inning for Romine, knowing they will change pitchers anyway and now we lost the Dan Hurley as well as now we have Sanchez, who can't catch a wild Chapman, behind the plate? Joe has lost numerous games in late inning 1 run leads and deficits with his "book binder" managing. [/QUOTE]
