🤞
The team just put him on the 60 day IL which matches that timeline Link - ( New Window )
I can feel it in my bones. People writing him off after a rough rookie year, when he was the youngest everyday player the Yankees have had since Jeter, are making a mistake.
I don’t think anyone knows. Time will tell. Let’s go Yankees!
I think Rizzo will have a big year if he stays healthy. He was mashing last April/May beofre the bad concusion. So even if Stanton is not getting it done I think Rizzo will in the 4 hole. They will have plenty of oppurtunities with Soto & Judge infront of them on base all year.

Agree 100%. I’m all in on Volpe. Can’t wait until he gets going enough to be leading off every day
I am with you Greg, thinking Volpe has a better year at the plate.
After a slowish start G started hitting in ST - so I am optimistic. Judge was a bit off, but Judge will be Judge and he will get his usual shitty strike zone in this series.
to the next game, Apple TV+ stole Game 2 of the season.
That's a bunch of horseshit right there. Well, go Yanks.
Lets see what Nestor gives them on opening day?

No shit? C**kshuckers. Already? Glad I paid MLB to be blacked out.

Glad I continue to not pay them for a service that peaked about 5 years ago
What do the Yankees do with the STAR patch for switch hitters? The patch is generally on the sleeve of their front shoulder when hitting. SO, what happens if a guy starts righty (patch on left sleeve) and then has to switch to lefty? I'm assuming they don't make you change your jersey.
Even the Hader K was competitive with a couple of questionable strikes.
Stanton still looks overmatched, as usual.
.
Three walks for Volpe, good to see, much better discipline.
Don't know how they won this game, but they did.
Shaky first for Nestor, but settled down to give them
5 innings.
Good to beat this damn team.
Sure wish we could trot out Mariano in the 9th. Got very spoiled by him.
Yup Holmes didn’t inspire confidence getting ripped a couple times, but no need to overreact on one game.
Huge throw by Soto, really nice comeback win. Soto brings an element this team hasn’t had in a while, both plate discipline and some fire
.
I have learned with Holmes watching him for a few years,
all about his release point. Geez, almost nailed Dubon in the head with his first pitch. He gets up, and lines a hit to RF. That guy was a good little pickup for the Astros, versatile player, 'stole' him from the Giants.
Saw 50 pitches between the 2 of them! Whole tram saw 171. Need this to be a regular occurrence.
Hopefully Volpe earns his way to the top of the lineup soon. Soto-Judge-Rizzo-Gleyber behind him. Keep Stanton as far down as possible and pray that Dominguez is back soon to take some DH at-bats from him.
just saw the replay - great throw by Soto and equally great tag by Trevino
I had the sense he didn't quite tag him, even though there were no conclusive angles.
Great win. I caught most of the first 5 innings on my iPhone at work, and it was good to see Nestor settle down after those first two innings.
I do think he tagged him and knew it. Look at Trevino's eyes a split second after the tag. He looks to see if Denbo(?) had reached the plate yet and it hadn't. I would say Trevino was looking to see if the tag beat the hand to the plate and it did.
Trevino said in the post-game that he knew he had tagged him, but
he didn't know where the runner was in relationship to the plate.
He said that as a catcher when a throw is coming in from right field, you really don't know where the runner is, you just catch the throw, turn and tag. He also said that since the no-blocking-the-plate rule, the Cs practice how to set up in this kind of a situation.

if staff holds up injury wise, the team can be very good.

I do like the idea of Torres hitting 1 right now. He seems to have embraced that so far.
As long as we are in stalking distance by the time Cole returns I'll be happy, and will try not to overreact to any particular game until then
I don’t think anyone knows. Time will tell. Let’s go Yankees!
@Giants
Happy Opening Day!

I expect that spot to belong to Rizzo or Verdugo soon. Stanton avoiding being the next Donaldson will be huge for the early part of the season
If Big G is just average Giancarlo, it will be such a boost.

Nestor being Nestor trying to get them to swing at high FBs and they wouldn't.
Play the kid Trevino sucks
Now another bomb - 4-0 Astros.
Pass on snell
Pass on burnes
Pass on cease
Let’s prospect hug and walk shit Nestor out there lol
Only boone and cash seems to have confidence in him at plate lol
they should be taking even more pitches and sitting on anything in the top half of the zone.
4-1
Let’s go BAJ
4-4
Fastball is his nemesis.
Lets go Volpe!!!
5-4 good guys
Why would you not?
First game of year. See me in May....
Alright, he’s back on my good side
Can already see what a big difference he makes in the lineup.
Come on Holmes, finish this
Phew
That is a huge first win against these guys.
Stanton still looks overmatched, as usual.
