    Yep, we also had a day off yesterday due to the rain. How much energy do you think Gardner burns during an avg game? I would think a professional athlete could still play two nowadays.

    And play Stanton in RF for both games?

    Frazier being hurt again sucks too. This would’ve been a great chance to step up and show his worth.

    He's playing RF not cage fighting.

    Its 2018, not 1950. Rest have been proven to help players over the course of a 162 game season.

    Stanton DH in one and Gardner DH the other. Andujar is young, he can play two games especially when we need his bat with Judge and Gary out.

    I'm going to assume you're 62 years old and still value batting avg and wins by a pitcher.

    Not saying it doesnt, but when you're already down two everyday guys I don't think it's a good idea to penalize yourself two more after a day off. I think the 23 year old andujar could make it through.

    I see the argument for Andujar playing both. I'm ok with 35 yr old Gardner sitting one.

    Regardless, would prefer to never see the combo of Wade and Robinson in the same OF again.

    And here you go with this crap. Is it okay for anyone to disagree with you? What youre talking about has nothing to do with toughing out a few games so the yanks can keep the Boston within hailing distance.

    "Toughing out a few games" is just an old school mindset. It's not good for a player long term. That's a fact. I dont care what your high school coach told you in 1972. The odds of us running down Boston with no Judge and Sanchez for a month plus are slim to none. Running our players into the ground to do so would be a terrible move.

    But I'll take your response as confirmation that you're a batting avg and wins guy.

    More importantly, any idea how to get a spot/stain out of Sperrys? Got some Bbq sauce on them.

    Not being a dick but aren’t you pretty new into the advanced stats world? Thought you used to argue about that in the baseball thread.

    I argued it back in 2009 or so when Tex was runner up in the MVP vote. I really had to educate myself bc everything I'd been told playing ball through college was a lie.

    Wasn't born 72. Is being old the only way someone can have an old school mindset? If you keep it under 5 or 6 anything can happen though

    Throw a couple of the oxy clean packets, preferably the max white ones, into a sink with water. Soak them in there for 8+ hours and then out in the washing machine on gentle cycle.

    Of course, but at the expense of the lineup and staff being dead for the playoffs? It's just not worth it. I'm fine with playing for the WC and a fresh club for the playoffs.

    Oh me too. I think they should just take the top 4 teams like they used to. The Yankees are 10 games up on the Indians but the Indians wont have to worry about a one game playoff bc every other team in the division will finish 10 games under .500.
