    They're just giving Bird the JBJ treatment. Let him keep sucking until he stops sucking.

    Not sure I agree with that. We could use one starter.. And it's not a great need since you only need 4 starters in the playoffs. The Sox could use an upgraded 2b, C, and reliever. Both teams would be on pace to win 100+ games with whatever perceived holes their rosters have, so talk of either team NEEDING to make a trade is a little overblown.

    2-4, 1 HR, 1 BB. If he continues at this pace (which he will because he's on the Yankees) he'll hit .500/.600/1.250 with 87HRs, 174 Rs, and 87 RBIs over the next 87 games. That would make him the third best hitter on the team.

    I feel bad for Votto. Or as bad as you can feel for a guy making $112M over the next 5 years.

    Also this is a pretty interesting stat: Yankees Bullpen Last 18 Games (since June 5): Chasen Shreve: 6.1 IP, 5 R, 3 HR Rest of team: 54 IP, 0 R, 0 HR Seems like a DFA is in order. The guy is a LOOGY with a reverse split. So why bother keeping him around? I'd much rather have Carroll up or even keep Lasagna in the bullpen once Tanaka gets back.

    What a s***** weekend. Glad I didn't have the opportunity to watch any baseball. And that ball that Frazier hit off of a speaker was horse s***. Maybe place the speakers somewhere outside of fair territory???

    Brandon Drury for Groome and Mata. Cashman has authorized me to offer this trade.

    Maybe the Sox can swing a deal for Starlin Castro. Not sure how they'd work it out though if they're trying to keep their spending below whatever that threshold is.

    World Series Wins Past 5 Years: Red Sox 1 Yankees 0 Past 10 Years: Red Sox 1 Yankees 1 Past 15 Years: Red Sox 3 Yankees 1 Past 20 Years: Red Sox 3 Yankees 4 We all live in the past. Some just live further in the past than others.

    It's not even the ASB yet and the Yanks/Sox have a 15 game lead over the third place team. Pretty crazy.
  11. bkzwhitestrican
    Maybe now some team can get him at a discount. He'll only cost $32M/year.
  12. bkzwhitestrican
    I think Drury will be packaged for a pitcher before the deadline. The Yankees are constantly looking for power lefties so I can't see them moving on from Didi in his prime.
  13. bkzwhitestrican
    He's still an athlete. Should be able to run 90 feet without blowing out both hammies.
  14. bkzwhitestrican
    Agreed. I get why they changed it (so more teams actually had something to play for in September), but as is both Boston and NY could win 100+ games and one of them will have to go to a sudden death game while a team like Cleveland will get rewarded for winning a weak division with 85 wins. Not ideal. Anything can happen in one game and let's say Boston/NY loses that game - is the MLB playoffs better overall with one of the top teams not participating? That's an emphatic no.
  15. bkzwhitestrican
    Not really. It kind of pisses me off that the Sox are still playing so well.
  16. bkzwhitestrican
    So are you saying the Sox are overachieving or underachieving?
  17. bkzwhitestrican
    So probably won't see him until 2020. There goes a promising young career.
  18. bkzwhitestrican
    Gotta look at the positives. No contact for judge means no GIDPs!

    Part of the problem with NYY fandom is that a s*** ton of people who grow up in NYC as Yankees fans end up leaving NYC when they grow up. This migration happens in all cities but especially NYC. It's just how it goes. I'll probably be out of NYC within the next couple of years myself. We get replaced by people from all of over the country/world who don't know s*** about the team, but just become Yankees fans by default. I would say that explains the majority of fairweather fans who only sprout up when the team is doing well. And also how there are so many displaced Yankees fans around the country. Brooklyn is a haven for hipsters, noobie fans, and the dreaded hipster Yankee fan. Enjoy your stay!

    Damn MLB not forcing the Yankees to play 3 games in 24 hours!! It's almost like they give a s*** about the players!!
  21. bkzwhitestrican
    6 after today. Can't remember any season with this many rainouts.
  22. bkzwhitestrican
    Next Jacko thread will likely be "What's wrong with Sale - should Sox trade him while he still has value?"
  23. bkzwhitestrican
    Moreland could possibly be in. Surprisingly first base in the AL has been pretty weak. Jose Abreu is the only other guy I can think is worthy.

    I see you guys are trying to use that same strategy against Houston
