This should settle the judge vs. ohtani debate

One thing the above clearly illustrates is the difference in perception an individual can receive in a team sport based on that team winning or losing.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

No surprise:

That Tommy Edman is better than both of them?

Gerrit Cole opts out of his contract with the Yanks. The team has a way to keep him by adding a year at 36M.

Cashman in ESPN article……..wow……blah, blah , blah…..stuff happens. I am a big fan of Boone we are lucky to have him.

Oh well good bye Soto and good bye to any chance we had to win a World Series for the next few years.

He is already talking about who else might be available kind of like just in case.

Should have never razed the old stadium. Should have just refurbished who cares about the cost it is New York. That old stadium was on hollowed ground.

We are just another meddling organization.

I understand I am being very dramatic. Just how I feel.

If they don’t sign Soto, I don’t see how this team doesn’t take a significant step backwards.

Has Cashman talked at all about budget constraints? If there are any constraints, can he even make a pitch for Soto? Judge,Cole, Stanton, Rodon have to be taking up most of his budget. How can he squeeze in another massive contract? If Hal wants to convince us that he is all in…he needs to find a way.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

Changing the thread a bit, I've heard a lot of smoke of the Yankees having interest in Christian Walker to be their new first basemen.

Gold Glove fielder and he's been a steady .800 OPS hitter for a while now. Can't complain about his analytics either as Walker also draws BBs and his K rate isn't bad for his level of power.

He'll be 34 by the start of the season, so I can't imagine Walker getting more than a two-year deal.

We officially keep Boone. Just terrific…..same old Hal Steinbrenner Yankees. Boone has made the playoffs 6 out of 7 years most regular season wins…..they have to understand as Yankee fans we can go 81-81 and who cares since the goal is winning World Series.

I guess Soto wants to go to a winner. Well we are in the playoffs every year. Since 2010 we have played in the third most playoff games. Only Houston and Dodgers have played more. We have a losing record 31 wins in 69 games. Four teams have more wins than us in that time Astros, Dodgers, Giants and Cardinals. All four of those teams have winning records in the playoffs.

We win until it’s time to win or go home. Sure keep Boone…..just brilliant…..

No thanks I’m sick of .240 hitters can we get some .280-.320 guys please?

We need actual hitters really bad.

Boone getting tossed was wack
