Earlier this week there was speculation that Stanton would play the outfield this weekend. Apparently this won't be the case for now. I wonder if they have seen enough of Grisham and the decision has been made that the next time Judge DH's, they'll use Verdugo in center and Stanton/Soto in the corners.
That pitch was never a strike out of the guy's hand.
I've been a supporter but I'm out on him
Yankees have had RISP problems for as long as the Giants have had O line problems.

I'm so tired of the RISP fail every damn year.
Boone is a shitty manager that should have been fired after last year's disaster. If they don't make a deep playoff run and bring him back I'll be furious.
Just close the door here Weaver.
The Orioles are absolutely stacked. We are top heavy. Unless we get more from Torres/Rizzo and DJ we are going to be passed by them.

Agreed. We have two of the best hitters in the game, Verdugo, an improving Volpe, and then hot garbage.
Wells has been nothing special as a hitter this season at all. Quite disappointing, actually and it's been 3 months now. It's not all "bad luck" for him. He's been miserable.

for Trevy. Boone has made some very strange moves/non-moves this year.

Well how many runs has Trevy cost us tonight with the 8 SB (tying a franchise record) he has allowed?
Give me the bat from the left side

Well, yeah. The catcher position has sucked ass for us this year. Would've been nice to have a decent one this season. But Wells can't hit for shit thus far.
Let's see how this team handles the next two weeks. But it wouldn't be a bad idea to address some of the known flaws of this team. You can't be complacent because of the start.
Then clean house of Boone's coaches and the player personnel. They need A LOT of help in the bullpen and the infield.
The Yankees won't win anything with these inept and unlucky bozos running the team.
Trevino has an issue throwing all season.

The team has the best record in all of Major League Baseball, and you want to fire everybody?
When Rizzo's back, they can't continue letting him and DJM try and find the fountain of youth while being black holes in the lineup, and in Rizzo's case in the field. Hopefully this brings that to a head.
Let’s see how they play against the O’s.

If the regular season doesn’t mean shit then maybe just stay off the threads until October? You guys are lunatics. When they win and have the best record, it means absolutely nothing but if they have the audacity to lose a game or two, let’s fire everyone!
GLeyber is just a dumb player. But they're stuck with him for now because DJ is cooked, Peraza is hurt and Cabrera can't hit consistently enough. And he may have to play 3rd anyway.
As for the bullpen, the numbers show they’re a bottom third of the sport group. Their K% is too low. Their BB% is too high. They’re basically skating by on BABIP luck and a HR rate that’s likely unsustainable. They need to find 2-3 swing and miss guys somewhere.
Like I said, let’s see how they play these two weeks. I didn’t say anything about firing people.

Funny how they have been beating good pitching until this weekend. Kind a chewed up the Royals good pitchers.
It is a long season. You get hot, you get cold.
We do know the pen is subpar. Rizzo is basically cooked. DJLM may be cooked, but this is extended ST for him. Torres is Torres and still is trying to pull everything for a homerun. Funny that when it appeared he was coming around he was going to right. The minute he gets going he goes back to pull happy.
If I was a team, I would never throw a FB to Stanton again - just sliders low and away. In fact I would do the same to Judge.
Long season. See what happens after the All Star break, roster wise.
I'll give you a hint. They won't be in the World Series.
