    I've seen too much of Heaney out here in So-Cal to have an ounce of belief in him.

    Sometimes he has pretty good horizontal and lateral movement on his pitches. He's going to have to work overtime with Matt Blake and make some serious adjustments, and then maybe then he might be worthwhile... Might be!:smiley-195517897341

    Imo, the only benefit he can be to the Yankees is to simply eat up innings. He also tips his pitches.

    He releases the curveball almost a half-foot closer to the rubber than the four-seamer and changeup. Additionally, Heaney’s release point for the four-seamer is noticeably lower than the curveball and changeup.

    Heaney loves giving up the long ball.

    Anthony Rizzo, Kris Bryant and Javy Baez, all three hit a home run in their very first game with their new teams.

    Blew my mind Epstein let 3/4's of his All-Star Infield go elsewhere

    Stanton, swinging so hard he's going to jump out of his shoes or fall over.

    What the heck is going on with Stanton. Swinging so hard he takes his entire head off the ball let alone his eyes.
    And he goes down looking at a beautiful change up right down the middle of the plate.

    This team is going nowhere this season regardless of who they added. The entire offense is an underperforming mess.

    Yea, All Gardner does is look pissed off and we as fans are pissed he's in the line up. He really needs a new gig. What is worse is that he does not have an outfielde's arm.
