Is there nobody on the coaching staff to talk to these guys?

Well, at least someone is willing to get a hit.

Montero and Sanchez is an absurd comparison to make.

Agreed, however no way in a million years do I offer him anything. I don't want him back.

Thought Headley was a decent glove, but Frazier is clearly better.
So 700 walks and 2 hits. Tanaka can't get through 5.

Agree. Save the $. They'll get similar production and a better contact rate from Cooper. With Judge and Sanchez consuming a ton of strikeouts, they really need more contact from the role currently being filled by Frazier.

Between Torres/Bird/Headley/Cooper/Andujar, 1B/3B/DH should be taken care of.

Just my opinion.

I think you are right.

Is it me or does Cooper look like he may be a decent at the plate? He seems to have an excellent eye and uses the field.

Jesus Montero? You guys need to calm the hell down. Jesus Montero? Really? Wtf is wrong with you guys? THIS is why Yankee fans can't deal with bringing up the young guys. We all clamored for it, but then when the inevitable struggles occur, they get called Jesus Montero. Unreal.

He should be back within a week max I think sooner.

I like Cooper, I think Bird is gonna rock our world though in 2 weeks ish
Will be interesting what they do with Frazier/Headley when Bird gets

Classic. All you do is whine, bitch moan and complain on these threads and I'm being told to take a chill pill. Me. I'm the one that needs a chill pill.

I HAVE the patience to see the young guys through their struggles. It's to be expected. But yeah, I'm the one that needs a chill pill.

I think Cooper looks like a MLB player. Lots of line drives and should had a really solid K-rate in the minors in spite of his rough start with NYY in the majors.

Good candidate for a L/R platoon at first with Bird plus some DH.

Kyle in NY : 8/9/2017 10:18 pm : link
haven't seen many fastballs beat Judge or Sanchez, even during these slumps. But they're getting a steady diet of breaking balls and they just haven't made the adjustment.

I'm sure they will though
We've gone full 2016 Judge now.

Yanks made a run at jay Bruce  
DennyInDenville : 8/9/2017 10:26 pm : link
Indians offered less, but offered to pay his remaining 2 months salary.

Bruce would have been nice at DH

So the Mets send him to the Indians, likely for lesser prospects. Either because they didn't want to deal with the Yankees, or they wanted a team to cover the full salary (for two months) because they're cheap.

Either way, that's lame.

That's an excellent point B.

It's why we couldn't get Duda either. It's a Mets town and staying that way until further notice
