anyone think that Andujar  
RasputinPrime : 8/6/2020 6:57 pm : link
still has a spot on this team? he and Frazier seem to be destined either to collect dust or get moved. I'm not against keeping young talent pushing for PT when the injuries inevitably come and I don't want the Yankees to sell low on any of them this season.

He really needs to start and leadoff. He is spraying the ball and he has great speed.


Over DJ? I could see it if they moved everyone down a spot but they really like Judge in the 2 hole and I honestly don't see them moving DJ. They want him getting as many ab's as possible.

I think the normal 1-2 of DJ and Judge is pretty much set in stone for them when they're not getting a day off.

I think Miggy does but not Frazier.

Miggy might have to bide his time this year but next year once Gardy is gone, it opens up a spot in the OF. Frazier I think is one spot behind Miggy and I'm not sure how he fits.

I agree that DJ and Judge likely aren’t moving, but DJ is the absolute PERFECT number two hitter. I would love for them to slide them back a spot but it’s probably not happening

DJ and Judge don't need to be split up. Just move them both down with Tauchman hitting in front of DJ. Turn 2 run into 3 run bombs and you open up the hole even wider for DJ.

I would move Frazier for pitching and hang onto Andujar.

Gardner will be gone after this year, so I wouldn't deal both. Keep one of them - and I like Andujar more. I think he's the better hitter and he's also able to play 3B in a pinch, so the positional versatility is important.

I was hoping fraizer would stick. Just seems he can't catch a break unfortunately.

Yup. You'd think with these guys knowing the tech is out there and coming, they'd do everything they could to be as good as possible. Maybe if they were really good they could hold the tech off but so many are just bad at their jobs, it's giving more and more fans reason to want the robot umps a sap.

I know I'm pretty much old school with most things baseball, and a few years ago would've never even considered having robo umps but I'm all for them if they can get the tech right.

Let’s be honest here. And I’m not one to complain about the lineup, it drives me crazy when people do it on every freakin game thread. But I don’t care, I’m gonna be that guy this time. Taking your two best players out of the lineup on the same day after having a day off two days ago is inexcusable. They have actually had a ton of days off through this mess. With only a 60 game season these guys shouldn’t be “resting” two days after having yet another day off. It’s infuriating

Makes sense. But everybody has to hit. No one is even laying solid wood on the ball no matter who pitching. Well, except that last one by Urshela.
I love Andujar

That's really been my only complaint over the lineup the last couple of seasons. Guys getting a day off before or after a scheduled off day.

That and the team not believing in "hot" eg, a guy has four hits or hits two HR's the game before and sits the next day for no apparent reason other than load management.

Bugs the crap out of me.

No one was backing up that tough catch try -- no movement toward the ball by anyone else. And Tauchman get spotted way center field for that triple down the line (after two fouls in that direction) a couple of innings ago. Does not look like it should to me. Am I just being fussy?

Hicks was backing it up like he's supposed to in case it got by Tauchman. He was clearly in the frame running behind him backing up the play.

It's just Tauchman kind of swatted the ball forward and towards CF with his glove. Not sure what you expected there as Torres has to be covering second and a bit of a no mans land there for Wade, IMO. Normally he wouldn't be anywhere near a lined single to RF. More like in a cutoff position to line up the throw in to 2nd.

My Dad called him Horrible Clark. Your summation fits to a tee. Neither good nor bad, and fit in with the rest of the team. My dad was spoiled by their success in the 50s and early 60s.

Rest in peace, Horace.

I think Frazier is the kind of player they will miss when he is elsewhere. I can see him raking somewhere else, unless he is complete rust by the time he gets out of the Bronx.

PaulN : 8/7/2020 8:05 am : link
Judge in cold was a bad call, LeMahieu would have been the right call, but we had a shot, Voit just missed it. In my opinion, Tachman should lead off and play every day, he is better then Gardner and Hicks, LeMahieu bat 2nd and Judge 3rd, how long before you settle the spots, you bat Stanton 4th because he protects Judge, I bat Hicks 5th because he hits from both sides, Urshella, Torres then move Torres up higher and higher once he gets going, then Voit, then Sanchez. When Gardner plays you move it around. I don't worry about hitting Hicks 5th, because he walks a lot.

Right, that projects to 45 friggin wins and running away with the Division.

I even liked him complaining about the air horns when he knew there was nothing to be done about them, and it would make him look silly to a lot of people, yet he was out there sticking up for his team.

I'm sure his players appreciated him doing it and he probably also needed to vent a bit after dealing with shitty HP ump's for three games straight. Guy got to blow off some steam, good for him.

arcarsenal : 8/7/2020 11:45 am : link
Some things never change around here. :)

Also, guys.. remember that there's really not a huge advantage to finishing in x,y,z position this year.

It's not like a typical season where there is significant incentive to win the division so that you can avoid the play-in.

All the Yankees need to do is get into the dance. After a 9-3 start and given where they are now, the odds of them doing that is probably already over 90%.

The only thing that matters is staying healthy, keeping the virus out of the locker room, and getting the rotation somewhat in order.

Monty didn't have a great night last night, but I still think I'll get to a point where I would trust him as a #3/#4 in a postseason series by the time we get there.

Pax is the "X" factor here. He's gotta figure it out. He was so good down the stretch last year and he pitched really well in Game 5 against Houston. He won me over in that one, so I'm not going to give up on him already - there's obviously something wrong physically or mechanically and they need to figure it out.

I think we're gonna see Schmidt before all's said and done in 2020.
