Not going to argue any of this. I know guys need rest, but andujar isn't going to get worn out at this age. Should've been walker batting them romine behind the plate for the bottom of the 9th.
Had anyone heard anything else about Machado? I just read a nj .com article that said we'd move andujar to 1st. That would be amazing.
That would be sweet but we would have no LH power really. Bird sucks but he should be able to hit some homers for us from the left. Hicks has supplied some and Didi / Gardy too I guess.
I think it was one GM suggesting what a deal would look like. I was reading it on my phone and now I can't find it on desktop. I typically hate rentals but I'd do that deal too. Feels weird saying it, but losing German stings the most. He's shown flashes of being really good. Drury is whatever and Frazier is blocked forever.
Saw it on the At Bat app. German would for sure sting the most. We would still have pieces to get one of these average starters this year that are on the market and then if we re-sign Machado [which we would], Andujar would be a pretty big piece to dangle in the off-season/next year.
And then sign Harper to play 1b and win the next 10 world series. Let's gooooooooooooooooooo. 1. Gardner LF 2. Judge RF 3. Harper 1b 4. Stanton DH 5. Machado 3b 6. Sanchez C 7. Torres 2b 8. Didi SS 9. Hicks CF
And it's very realistic. We will have a ton of money to spend. Gotta factor in increases for Judge and Severino over the next few years though. Will have to replace CC too.
How many games back are we now? Unless we make huge improvements before the deadline a one game playoff looks inevitable.
The Yankees can't bring that right field wall with them on the road! That Jim Kaat is such a card! It's almost like people think the yanks would be .500 if we didn't have "our home field advantage".
