^^^Welcome aboard !

 

Thanks for the lineup, and welcome aboard.

 

Sounds like Volpe will be trading in number 77 for number 11!

 

In our sun-down perambulations of late, through the outer parts of Brooklyn, we have observed several parties of youngsters playing “base,” a certain game of ball…. Let us go forth awhile, and get better air in our lungs. Let us leave our close rooms…. The game of ball is glorious.

F'n cold-assed opening day forecast in NYC...high of 45 degrees with 10-15 mph winds.

 

Cole walks the first batter on 4 strikes, then proceeds to strike out the next 3.

 

ALL RISE !!...1-0, good guys.

 

This HP Ump sux.

 

Judge's first AB of the season, starts out with a BANG!

 

Cole fans 6 in first 2 innings.

 

Cy Cole is on a roll.

 

Cole, 8 Ks through 3.

 

Volpe works a walk and steals 2B....he should really help the Yanx' OBP.

 

I haven't been this excited about a Yankee Rookie since Mr. Respect arrived in the Bronx!

Volpe wasted no time stealing 2nd...Sweet as sweet potato pie!

 

Cole with 10 Ks thru 4...already a Yankee opening day record for Ks.

 

Justin Verlander the 43 Million $$$ man placed on the IL. Strain of the muscles in the armpit area.
That's alot of meatballs, 43 million worth, down the drain, maybe, perhaps, might be, could be.

 

Gleyber with a 2-run jack...3-3, good guys.

 

Volpe flashing golden leather. Wouldn't it be something grand if he won the Gold Glove in his rookie year?

 

GT has to put all the pieces together and have a *good year offensively, defensively and on the bases too, or else he's nothing more than glorified trade-bait.

I wish him well.
Imo, GT has to have more than a *"good year" to remain on the team. Anything less than 35 HR's, a >.300 B'Avg, 100 RBI's, and a .400 OBP% will be considered a failure imo.
