    IMO if we're going to win at least 1 of these 3 games, this should be the one. If our offense can step up.

    RHP - Luis Severino (4-3, 3.12 ERA)

    VS.

    RHP - Marcus Stroman (2-0, 3.00 ERA)

    Greg Bird has hit 9 HRs through his 1st 33 games, the 3rd most in Yankee history through such a span behind Kevin Maas (12) & Shane Spencer (11)

    CF - Ellsbury
    LF - Gardner
    DH - Rodriquez
    C - McCann
    RF - Beltran
    1B - Bird
    3B - Headley
    2B - Ackley
    SS - Gregorius

    ...let's just hope he doesn't turn into Maas or Spencer.

    I hear you Ron & I also can't help but wonder what happens to him next year when Teixeira is back at 1st base.

    True but the'll all still be here next season. Honestly though if I could move the final year (2016) of both Beltran & Teixeira even if it means paying half there salary, I'd do it.

    It would be ideal to get Tex to waive his no trade and send him down to a National League team. You're of course banking on Bird being the real deal but it really doesn't matter because I wouldn't resign Tex anyway. I could live with the final year of Beltran's deal. Judge has to show he's ready before he becomes the anointed one. He likely needs more time in AAA.

    Both Beltran & Bump will always have physical
    problems surrounding their future. Their contracts
    prove that the Yankee GM has a short rope circling
    that chicken neck. Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!

    '59 beat me to it... I agree... I'm hoping he isn't a flash in the pan that fades into obscurity...

    I really wish they would retire... I don't care if they have to flat out release them... they're holding this team back from the future...

    Tex has to make it back on the field, worry about it then. Until then Bird is 1B.
