Another classic exchange from a Yankee forum, this one about Chris Gittens.
Poster 1: His swing looks very long.
Poster 2: His career looks very short.
The preseason projections on the Yankees weren't really grounded in much logic. They were 33-27 last year, they replaced Tanaka and Happ with Kluber and Taillon, and that was supposed to vault them into a 105 win team?
The thing about preseason projections is, fans could do as well on them as 'experts'. It's all guesswork.
The Yankees really decided to go X Factor with their rotation when they signed both Kluber and Taillon. How could anyone reliably predict what those two would do? Answer: they couldn't.
Marwin deserves some love for his performance in this series. 5 RBI in 3 games, and some big ones.
Also got his OPS back over .600 LOL
It's like we've reached the point that if your OPS is over .600, there's still hope for you.
