    Well lets see, the Rangers broke a team losing streak on the Yankee and in turn stopped the Yankees series streak. Can't blame the offense, the Staff simply choked away the game. Yankee Brass need to put on thinking caps and start to fix the pitching. Mid year may be too late.

    I like your idea. Catchers have to trap balls in the dirt, capture past balls as routine. Starting Romine and using Sanchez at first. First basemen are flexible and able to stretch. That may be a Sanchez difficulty. That is a great experiment you had thought of.

    Yeah, Stanton at 1B may be more realistic.

    Bird is going to be our first baseman going forward. He is a stud and hopefully done with the injuries.

    ^^^Everybody here hopes your scenario comes to pass, but we were just spitballing about what might happen if he doesn't stay healthy or doesn't perform well.

    It's more than obvious the Yanx have and are suffering from a lack of quality pitching, both SP's and t/BP...
