  1. 3 positives and 3 quick test positives that they were waiting on results from. No clue about symptoms or anything else. It'll be interesting to see who is on the active Yankees roster today.
  2. We're just saying that Barnes' deal isn't an overpay. That's it.
  3. @Buster_ESPN The first Red Sox team bus has already departed for Yankee Stadium.
  4. Ellsbury.
  5. From what I know about drafts, I'd take a closer with an early 1st round pick. This would create a run on closers such that I could take the guy I wanted anyway with my next pick.
  6. @Enrique_Rojas1 Source: "We will play today" #RedSox and #Yankees prepare to play on Friday, after postponing Thursday due to covid cases in NYY.
  7. We're hopeful. Not sure it's likely at this point.
  8. Verdugo and Downs have been disappointments this year.
  9. If it's only 13, Mayer probably wants 1st pick money and Fabian wants 1st round money.
  10. In 2019, there were 47 relievers with an fWAR of 1.0 or more. There were 335 relievers that pitched more than 20 innings that year. A true "average reliever" would be about 0.2 fWAR. I would say that an fWAR of 1 makes you a good to very good reliever as teams would likely only have 1 or 2 of those guys. Only 9 guys had fWAR's that were "very good" according to your scale. So, 2 great players. 7 good to very good players. 28 average to above average players. 288 below average to scrub players.
  11. It was closed last year by mods when people couldn't control themselves.
  12. Where'd you adjust it?
  13. Is it really a platoon with Dalbec and Duran? Dalbec plays vs LHP, Kiké plays against RHP Duran plays vs RHP, Kiké plays against LHP Kiké is the everyday guy who just switches between CF/1B?
  14. Pederson has been terrible this year.
  15. And neither does your argument that Barnes wasn't "very good" even though he's top 21 in the league over the course of a 3 year period, which is top 10% in all of baseball for that position.
  16. No, you didn't. You said any player with less than 2 fWAR was a "scrub." How many relievers get above 2 fWAR?
  17. What are you talking about? He didn't even get on base!!
  18. These *******s couldn't even beat the lowly Yankees last night... No hits again...
  19. I'd keep Chavis in lieu of Cordero. Chavis you can stash on the bench and can play LF/1B/2B/3B. Cordero needs the AB's and he plays LF/1B (kinda).
  20. Yes, that was my point. This isn't a place for political rants about COVID. We couldn't be adults last year, so we shouldn't start up again this year.
  21. IDK. I'm planning on getting Taco Bell for lunch. If it comes out too quickly, I'm also going to blame that damned COVID!
  22. No, I'm just saying we don't really know how whether or not he makes these types of moves. He hasn't been in this position before. He's on a competing team with the luxury of a high payroll. We don't know if he believes he can use some of his farm to push a playoff contender forward. I don't think he will this year, but we can't say for sure.
  23. He also said "prime" Gaetti who was fantastic in 86 and 88. If he played like that for 10 straight years, maybe there'd be a discussion.
  24. We all understand the premise.
