NFT: Opening Day! Yanks-Astros, 4 pm

Greg from LI : 3/28/2024 12:56 pm


Soto in front of Judge is going to be a monster 2-3 punch this season. An on-base machine hitting in front of the most destructive hitter in the AL.

If all you're going to do is gripe, do us all a favor and start your own thread.

and a bit of good news  
Greg from LI : 3/28/2024 12:59 pm : link
It's from Heyman, but still...

[quote]Here’s the best news: Cole is said to be “feeling great” and the occasionally whispered target date of June 1 for the best pitcher in baseball seems more realistic than ever. In the meantime, Yankees people hope to remain close to contention until their Cy Young savior returns.[/img]

🤞

lineup looks good.

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

The team just put him on the 60 day IL which matches that timeline

I'm glad to see Gleyber Torres as the leadoff hitter. Hopefully he keeps the job when DJ comes back or until Volpe improves enough to take it.
Let's go...no excuses...  
rnargi : 3/28/2024 1:33 pm : link
get the stench from last year outta here!
Only real "complaint" I have  
Matt M. : 3/28/2024 1:39 pm : link
is Volpe hitting 6. I don't really want him that close to the middle of the order. He should be in the 7-8-9 range or leadoff, eventually.

I do like the idea of Torres hitting 1 right now. He seems to have embraced that so far.
Let's go Yanks!

Tough role of the dice schedule-wise to start the season (while some of our divisional opponents have a lollipop-ride) but I'm hopeful.

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 expect Torres to have a monster year

so will the 4 hole

step up or be a black hole?
Really excited  
bceagle05 : 3/28/2024 2:10 pm : link
about Volpe, Wells and Dominguez (get well soon!) developing this season, in addition to the obvious star power on the roster. Gonna be a fun year.

Volpe's gonna have a big year  
Greg from LI : 3/28/2024 2:15 pm : link
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.
Thibodeaux out there representing the Giants

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.

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
Re lineup  
Mike from SI : 3/28/2024 2:23 pm : link
I'd prefer going R L R L R L, but I'm sure they're leaning on the analytics early on.

If Big G is just average Giancarlo, it will be such a boost.
Glad to see Cabrera get the start  
Crazed Dogs : 3/28/2024 2:27 pm : link
over Berti. He earned it with finishing strong this Spring

Agree 100%. I’m all in on Volpe. Can’t wait until he gets going enough to be leading off every day

ahead to make sure there aren't any glitches...

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.


If you look ahead

That's a bunch of horseshit right there. Well, go Yanks.
Lets see what Nestor gives them on opening day?

Glad I continue to not pay them for a service that peaked about 5 years ago

Anything in the zone is hittable.

Leaving off from last season.
I had no faith in Trevino or Cabrera there  
bceagle05 : 3/28/2024 4:48 pm : link
and Trevino took care of it himself.

Now another bomb - 4-0 Astros.
Lmao  
BleedBlue : 3/28/2024 4:48 pm : link
Not to overreact but our pitching is gonna suck dick again.


Pass on snell
Pass on burnes
Pass on cease

Let’s prospect hug and walk shit Nestor out there lol
love Nestor  
RasputinPrime : 3/28/2024 4:49 pm : link
but he better start wiggling his @ss out there to give his stuff a chance to be deceptive. He isn’t throwing anything that is moving.
slider to Alvarez  
RasputinPrime : 3/28/2024 4:50 pm : link
had some dip to it. Cmon Nestor.
The Yankees already leading the majors in double plays

seems like an easy prop bet.

Soto gets umped at the plate.

Btw

I can't wait for Wells to be the everyday C. I know Trevino has had some ok hitting years, but I have very little confidence in him at the plate.

they should be taking even more pitches and sitting on anything in the top half of the zone.
