A Sanchez

vs.

Gardner / Headley / Beltran / Teixeira / McCann / Rodriguez / Drew / Young / Gregorius

E Rogers

5-1 Tigers with Rogers doing his very best to ensure he isn't in the rotation.

That's good, RP, because he has no business starting for us

EVER!!!

If I was Girardi

RasputinPrime : 3/24/2015 7:57 pm : link

i'd be busting down doors to get out of the gates strong. With an older team we need to get some momentum. Playing not to lose isn't going to get this team to a good place and keeping Rogers as anything but an Aaron Small (i.e. emergency late in the season) isn't smart.

Dodgers are burning money and we are pinching trotting out Drew and Rogers on the 25. *shudder*

Relax its a marathon not a sprint.

Crapuwanu will be back soon. Nova will be back by Jun,and when that fails Cashman has got Scott Baker in the wings to give up tape measure shots at YS2.

Just think, this is the preseason

game threads are going to be absolutely unbearable this year.

Zebra is already in mid season form...

remember when Cano was hitting 7th for us and Gardner a borderliner?

RasputinPrime : 3/24/2015 8:13 pm : link

yeah, hard to stomach the change in expectations.

Bryant with his 9th HR of the spring. Must be nice to have a young superstar talent to cheer for. Too bad we didn't have a shot at Moncada.

Yankees do Sandlot - ( New Window )

Gardner walks home on a sacfly

RasputinPrime : 3/24/2015 8:15 pm : link

that was to short CF. Man he really reached his ceiling. Bottle whatever pumps through his veins and have ARod inject some GGH.

listening to Teix talk about his "no fun diet" (i.e. no sugar)

RasputinPrime : 3/24/2015 8:19 pm : link

you really get the sense that he loves to eat and isn't happy about having to take care of himself. He should have followed Jeter's "all fun diet"

Miller with a solid inning

RasputinPrime : 3/24/2015 8:27 pm : link

his velocity still isn't there but he command the entire plate well and his offspeed stuff is better than I expected.

Beltran had a nice rap...

Dunedin81 : 3/24/2015 9:26 pm : link

as did Drew (thrown out at 2nd, but I know they're being aggressive because it's the spring). Teix went the other way. A-Rod hauled ass down the line and made a play of something that looked like he was dead to rights coming off his bat.

So nice night for the bats.

Pazos K's the side...

Dunedin81 : 3/24/2015 10:09 pm : link

very impressive. Rumbelow looked filthy for two batters, got some shaky defense and lost it.

love Judge's patience at the plate

RasputinPrime : 3/24/2015 10:24 pm : link

he sure looks much closer than expected. Starting RF next season doesn't seem impossible. That third year we gave Beltran really hurts.

Game threads, Yankee threads, lots of constant year round crying from these guys. Unbearable is right.

Judge steals second standing

RasputinPrime : 3/24/2015 10:26 pm : link

moves to third on FC and then scores on a single. Fundamentals.

There are as many posts complaining about complaining as posts that actually complain.

I was half paying attention. At the end of the last half-inning Paulie and Kay said it was over so I turned it off. Missed the walk-off.

Game thread and a yankees win. That's all that matters.

Please tell me you're not going to put *13

in every Yankee game thread title this season.

Enough with that numbers shit, already.

Earlier in the day I said I didn't know if Flores...

Dunedin81 : 3/25/2015 8:29 am : link

had enough power to be a corner OF. He may still not, but my timing was pretty bad.

Sickels with a prospect retrospective on Brett Gardner...
