    Ohtani done this year and next. Tough break for him and the angels

    And now heyman can stop with his bullshit tweets that ohtani should be ROY.[/QUOTE]

    someone needs to take the Shohei Kool-Aid away from Heyman. :koolaid:
    ROY is Andujar's to win or lose, but ye' all knew this, unless GT goes on a Mantlesque terror tear, and their is only one Mick....

    I meant to post this earlier....

    someone take the Pretzels away from M. Kay okay, he's become pretzel logic....
    You Manage in t/Bronx you hit the ground running, no time for learning curves, or learning how to manage an effin' bullpen... Success is measured by WS Rings, not AL or AL East pennants...

    Looking forward to seeing Mike King one day in the Bronx....


    https://www.milb.com/scranton-wb/news/rh-mike-king-wins-august-honors/c-292895768
    MOOSIC, PA (September 1, 2018) - The International League has announced that Scranton/Wilkes-Barre pitcher Michael King has been tabbed as the Player-of-the-Month for August. King went 3-0 with a 1.09 earned run average over five starts; his first five outings in Triple-A.


    The New York Yankees acquired the right-hander along with international bonus pool money last November in a trade with the Miami Marlins for infielder Garret Cooper and pitcher Caleb Smith. King was initially selected by the Marlins out of Boston College in the 16th round of the 2016 First-Year Player Draft.


    King made his Triple-A debut on August 5 and allowed one run on three hits over seven innings with four strikeouts. He earned his first win for the RailRiders on August 12 at Durham after allowing two runs on six hits over 6.2 innings pitched. The 23-year-old from Rochester, New York, proceeded to reel off wins in each of his next two starts against Norfolk and Lehigh Valley. King worked a seven-inning, complete game against the Tides on August 18 and carried a no-hitter into the seventh in his start against the IronPigs on August 24. Despite taking a no-decision in his final start of the month, King pitched six perfect innings against Syracuse before being lifted this past Wednesday.


    King is the third RailRider over the past three seasons to be honored as International League Player-of-the-Month, following Aaron Judge in June of 2016 and Jake Cave in July of 2017.


    Brandon Duckworth was the last Scranton/Wilkes-Barre pitcher to earn International League Player-of-the-Month honors, accomplishing the feat in July of the 2001 season.


    Scranton/Wilkes-Barre hosts Pawtucket tonight in the final home game of the 2018 regular season. The RailRiders hold the Wild Card spot with three games remaining, just ahead of Toledo and Indianapolis. The day's festivities begin at 4:00 p.m. with a FanFest outside PNC Field and a first pitch slated for 6:35 p.m. Fireworks will follow the final out.

    ...I thinking more along the lines of a one year deal with a TEAM option for a second year.

    Severino needs to pitch a quality game, Stanton needs to cut the Hunter Ceiling Fan act, team need to tighten up the "D" and get out of there with a series win.

    ^^^^.....

    Thanx 59, that sounds like probably the smartest deal. I doubt Happ would sign for one year without an option for the second...
    Happ Looked pretty spot-on last night and seems to enjoy playing in the Bronx a key feat few can handle....

    ^^^....

    Indeed Titan tighten up the defense, tighten up the base running, and show a bit of discipline at the plate. Yanx batters got to get tight and stay tight like a virgin damn Madonna's going through my head like a virgin...

    Those two years I lived in Georgia about drove me insane when they played the Left Coast trip...

    I remember getting up to go to work at 3 a.m. and the Yanks would still be playing the angels.... and overtime games forget about it....

    Course if you live on the left or wrong Coast it's a great start time... 4:30 start times out here are okay but that's usually when I'm making dinner.... and or struggling to get my head out of my ass....

    ...lol...hey, I'm no expert...but I'm just so sick of bad contracts. I don't mind overpaying a player on a per year basis but don't give him 6 years when he's only gonna be good for 3 years....and don't give a player 3 years when he's only gonna be good for one year.


    ...just my 2 cents.

    Bases loaded two outs and Voit at the plate. Let’s get some runs.

    Zero runs. How many times has this team had bases loaded & not being able to
    score a run? It’s more than I care to know.

    Every time this team loads the bases they manage to get that old Oriental Hitter No Can Do to the plate.
