  1. I only saw crochet pitch twice this year. But the pure stuff is undeniable! Better than any starter we put in the mound in 2024!! The command and control looked really good. bres-slow has to make the call on durability!!! in today’s game, you have to give to get
  2. I agree! I did only see him pitch once. The stuff was decent and with improved command and control, he could be someone to pay attention to! that is the problem with going to see live baseball. You work out your schedule to get to the stadium on a certain date, but you never know who is going to be pitching or even worse, you get a bullpen game!!!!
  3. I think we need a number 1 and a number 2 for the rotation and two quality relievers. One lefty and one righty
  4. Rather than sign Holmes could we not try to trade for helsey???
  5. And how has signing top notch free agent pitchers worked out for us in the previous three years??? Bottom line, if you believe crochet is a number 2 starter, you will have to give to get.
  6. Core to me are players with multiple years of team control. our rotation core is Houk Bello, Crawford, criswell, Fitts and preister! The one thing that core says is no top end pitcher! It is missing a number 1 and a number 2 starter!!!!
  7. I am not a fan of crochet, but you have to give to get in this climate
  8. Rotation 1.) fried. 2.) Houk. 3.) bello. 4.) Giolito 5.) Crawford 6.) Criswell is this a playoff worthy rotation ?
  9. Abreau, cassas, Sandlin and cespedes for crochet
  10. I think slaten was an excellent addition in 2024! Let’s hope we get a left handed version of him this offseason.
  11. No more pivetta talk! Let someone else choke on that guy
  12. It is all dominoes. Our infield defense has dumpster fires at 1st, 2nd and 3rd. (The dumpster fire at 3rd base is the wurst in baseball) why would a free agent pitcher want to come here, with an infield more leaky than the titanic? (Post iceberg) to fix the leaky infield, we need a place to relocate devers or cassas occasionally! that place is DH So in summary: domino 1 - trade yoshuda. domino 2 - tell free agent pitchers we will split DH at bats between cassas and devers. domino 3 - tell free agent pitchers that Campbell should win the 2nd base job. domino 4 - sign Carson Kelly to be back up catcher. (Above average defensive catcher) domino 5 - sign fried!
  13. How does the Mets choking on a huge contract help us???
  14. Two quality bullpen arms would enhance our bullpen tremendously. but one has to be a lefty and the other a righty Helsey would be a great addition from the right side.
  15. I would do this trade and send Desperate Dave 12mm for his troubles
  16. Very excited to see the battle for second base between Campbell, grissom, Hamilton and romy the 40 man roster could get pinched from incoming free agents and minor league promotions. maybe trading 4 from the 40 man roster for crochet would be preferable to cutting guys
  17. Time for the Yankees to step up and beat this contract offer and then choke on it for years to come
  18. I would never want him to be passive. But get to the point where he identifies the spin on the ball and does not swing at balls so far outside the strike zone
  19. I really hope we keep rafeala in center field and he cuts down on the strike outs next season . He is an amazing talent
  20. It should take a sweetheart deal to get any of the big 4 included in a trade!
  21. Do you judge him based on playing hurt this year? I think he can hit very well and he has 20 home run power potential
  22. I watched ingrassia pitch and I was impressed with the stuff! I really hope he develops into the quality you mention above!
