    I saw Velasquez throw a No Hitter thru 7-IP in t/A+ Minors (Astros). VV had a 99mph fastball, until he was told to dial it down, due to supposed control probs.

    Like I said earlier, Joe West is a terrible excuse for an Ump.

    Robertson is barking up the wrong tree with Joe West. He will lose every time....no matter what the issue.
    Leadoff walk comes back to bite SOB asshole Robertson....good bye jerk. He just cannot
    concentrate & do his job. He creates his own shit.

    ...the ball was nowhere close to the target and almost hit the batter in the back foot...and Romine usually blocks pitches in the dirt MUCH better than Sanchez.

    Betances will never prevent a baserunner from stealing 2nd base. It’s not in his DNA. Unreal.

    Just saying he tried backhanding it instead of sliding over and blocking..sanchez is known for that

    ...don't think he could do anything but backhand it...like I said, it was about 3-4 feet from the target...he was lucky to even get a glove on it.

    ...to give you an idea of how much better Romine has been than Sanchez defensively, ...Sanchez has 9 passed balls this year, Romine has none.


    ...a lot of people were getting on Girardi last year for voicing his displeasure at Sanchez' defense...I can now see why he felt that way.

    ...that's true...which is why I was scratching my head when he pulled Robertson and brought in Betances with a man on 1B.

    I am not saying sanchez is a better catcher, far from it, just feel he could/should have done a better job blocking the ball...yankee announcers felt the same
