Sanchez getting the day off with a day game after a night game. Conveniently Gray happens to be on the mound too.
Didi is also getting a day off today. Boone said it was a scheduled day off regardless of yesterday's incident at 2B.
Lineup
Gardner LF
Judge DH
Hicks CF
Stanton RF
Walker 1B
Andujar 3B
Torres 2B
Romine C
Torreyes SS
Sonny Gray pitching
Nice AB.

okay then.
Not ideal but Didi is in a funk, got kicked in the head and needed a day off.
Gary, after the sad defensive showing last night needed a day. Although Boone confirmed that Chapman crossed up Sanchez on the 2nd WP.
It's not like they are hurting for batters....
It looks like they are today..
Pffft. No shit. They do it often with the full squad. Patience grasshopper. 3 walks and a single - tie game.
As Bauer is self imploding....
Also, Romine dogged it down the line. Hate seeing guys trot home on sac flies and base hits.
He’s a good pitcher, but looks like such a baby. If he didn’t have a major league arm, he’d fit right in smoking cigarettes in front of some Wawa in Jersey
Bet Betances comes in.

I was at game 4 of the ALCS. Crowd was merciless toward him. It was truly the Bronx Zoo that night.
Makes you wonder if they'll investigate other solutions for the walls. There must be a safer way for them to absorb impact.

try. Man he hit his head hard. The wall never loses in those situations..

#1 I think the warning track needs to be wider to give a fielder more than one step warning.
More padding is the only option.
D-Rob or Betances. Chapman def out. Or Green can finish it only 24 pitches so far..
:) :) :) :) :)
Good outing for Sonny.
:) :) :) :) :)
We play today, we win today...Dassit!!!
Bullpen back on track.
This team just outlasts good pitchers. Fun.
This team, when decently healthy, should be better than .254--eighth best in the league--in BA, and have even more HRs.
I do expect that Adujar could decline, as many rookies do after this hot a start. Didi should get closer to his normal--but not down by much. Most of the rest is still upside.
Gonna be a fun, fun summer.
Go German.

Why can baseball players like Hicks or Arod continuously grab their crotches every minute and also make sure they do it atleast 5 times during ABs and it's cool (I agree no issues) but when Baker Mayfield does it it's bad
Just a random observation about baseball, players and crotch grabbing is just part of the game I guess
every wear a cup?
Makes sense for ARod, but being an outfielder, Hicks doesnt really need it. I only wore a cup when I caught and pitched. Wearing them in the outfield made it tougher to run full speed and I would get saddke soreness quite often.

Don't know what pros do. I never wore one because if my hands weren't fast enough to protect myself.... and yes, it does slow you down.

Wore mine for a week. Then put it in the bag until I had to catch or pitch. It got a little dicey trying to shove that monstrous hunk of plastic down my pants if I had to fill in at catcher mid game, but.... ;-)
Andujar is another one who's done it. Also, Id include Montgomery in there. He hasn't been Sevy but he's shown he ready to pitch in the majors.

OMG have we written off Bird already? His injuries have been frustrating but he is still young with incredible promise.

Stanton will get better with warm weather and as he gets more used to being a Yankee. Gardner will either get better or lose PT--maybe to Frazier. Walker will get better or be replaced--probably by Drury. Judge will hit more out. Hicks is still getting his swing and eye back.

not written off, but you can't absolutely count him either.
