Ellsbury 0 for his last 19 McCann 0 for his last 15 Teixeira 0 for his last 13 Gardner 0 for his last 10 A -Rod is 2 for his last 17 3 players are hitting over there last 10 games, Beltran (342), Gregorius (323) & Headley (293) 5 culprits, Gardner (114), Ellsbury (116), McCann (181), Teixeira (223) & A-Rod (225) This may be a time to shake things up a little.
There would be if they'd release Drew. And than maybe give Ellsbury a few days off & try Didi's hot bat at the top of the order. I mean what the hell, at this point there's nothing to lose.
The big bats need to hit. Really no getting around that. Bringing up unproven minor leaguers in a pennant race isn't the answer.
...you mean like Severino? ...Drew and Jones are certainly not the answer either. Judge and Refsnyder will likely be called up in a couple weeks anyway.
Severino is the best prospect and was dominating. Not to mention they needed an arm. Judge has struggled in AAA at the plate so I wouldn't assume he's an automatic call up as he might be better served where he is.
Vic, as I mentioned in another thread, even if Refsnyder hits 230-240 for the rest of the season, its still better than what Drew is doing. Its a win-win.
...so you seriously think Jones is a better option than Judge?...c'mon. ...and as rick said, Refsnyder can't be worse than Drew. ...and Severino was by no means blowing batters away in AAA...he's done OK so far but I'll reserve judgment on him till he proves he can pitch well vs a really offensive team like the Jays (this Sunday)...the Red Sox and Indians don't count.
this is spot on. just do not understand how judge n refs are not playing everyday. how drew is on this team is a complete joke.
What I'm saying is that if Judge is struggling at the plate at the moment in AAA. Why bring him up here where he's not going to play every day?
...because he's still a better option than Garrett fucking Jones who isn't playing every day either...Jones is a complete waste of a roster spot. ...and like I said, the general consensus is that Judge will be a September call up anyway...I don't think 8-10 in the minors is going to help him...let the kid play.
...well, for one thing, he's a definite defensive upgrade over Jones/Beltran...and probably better than Young too. ...and again, Jones has been doing nothing but sitting on the bench himself and he has no business being on the roster. No one is saying Judge should be the starting RHer and like I said, he's gonna be called up in September anyway so another handful of games in SWB are not gonna make much of a difference. Judge and the rest of the September call ups won't necessarily get much playing time either...I think it's more about the experience of being/playing/traveling with the big team. ...we'll just have to agree to disagree on this one, mess.
...lol...I just saw that Jones has been DFA'd again...replaced by,............................................................................. Capuano ! ...and Pinder replaced by Goody ? ...turning point.
Or he has pictures of him & the fat one legged circus midget..................oops! I meant small person.
lol. all the best to you my old friend. i would love to see this team to get rid of cashman. so sick of what he does.
