    Yankee coddling & pampering.......1. Stanton will only do DHing in these games and possibly throughout this
    shortened 60 game/SARS-CoV 2 version. Too fragile to play. 2. Tanaka will be taking warm baths to ease his aches and pains; may get three starts in this shortened season. 3. #99 will be given the’kid glove’ treatment so as to not aggregate his ailments. 4.LaMahieu still in quarantine since testing positive; Yankees likely not to play him at all.
    You can be sure with this organization there are others being given the ‘old’ Yankee appeasement treatment.
    PLAY BALL at the grand old park in the Bronx. Game 2 tonight/ 6:30 PM

    Good to see judge hit a homerun pulled to Left Field.
    Only 6 of his 27 HR's last year were hit to LF.

    This sounds real corny with artificial crowd noise!

    Cannot believe. Mets’ announcers are broadcasting tonight’s game from their home ballpark,
    CitiField......even though the game is at Yankee Stadium. Then we are told that they will call
    all 60 games, home & away, from CitiField. Do not know how Yankee announcers will do their
    games. It just gets stranger as our world is out of control. So, this is the 21st century!

    Yankees beat the Mets 6 - 0 with 5 HRs......2 by Aaron Judge. Lefty Jordan Montgomery looked to
    solidify #5 starter in the Yankee rotation with his strong performance last night. Loud speaker crowd
    noise definitely not the way for the future in baseball, let alone any sport.

    Even though I am pissed over this sham of a season I did watch last nights game. Damn bice job by Jmo against a team having players that can do damage. I have to agree that players are being pampered to the point of being ridiculous. In a 60 game season this team needs to step up above themselves an play ball!!!!!!!!!

    I've been hearing rumors that Domingo German is done with baseball?
    Jordan Montgomery looked brilliant for the equivalent of a spring training game. If he keeps this up I would not be surprised if he's the number three starter. J-Mo reminds me of a young Paxton, and a few other Big Lefties.

    If he gains a little more on that slider he could be a duplicate of Lefty himself Steve Carlton

    How are you feeling Cage?

    What procedures did they do on you while you were in the hospital? A month is a very long time to spend in the hospital I hope you are doing well brother!!

    I was transferred three weeks ago to a Rehab center to recoop. Had a left ventricle procedure to reduce
    LV wall stress & to improve blood flow to my lungs. I lost all mobility in my legs and arms, more so on my
    left side. It’s been a scary experience. Have not seen my family for over 2 months.....thanks to
    COVID-19. Got to see them on FaceTime. For a while I did not think I would be able to recover......thanks
    for your caring thoughts.
