It's all good, Nick. The team's 15-2 and you've still got your whipping boy.
What will you do if Holt has a couple of good games and is hitting .280 though?
Issues between players and the press have been going on as long as there's been baseball. Last year Farrell needed to make Price apologize to Eck and put the thing to bed instead of letting it fester like it did.
It's always easy to have 20/20 hindsight, but it looks like a lot of the issues fall at Farrell's feet. He handled the Machado-Pedroia thing poorly and he handled the Price-Eck thing poorly.
The amazing Harold Reynolds thinks the Yankees may need to do something about the hitting background in the Stadium because Stanton seems to have trouble seeing the ball there.

Johnson doesn't look like much but he really knows how to pitch.
