Prior to Today's Game The Yankees placed Masahiro Tanaka on The Paternity Leave List and recalled Nestor Cortez Jr. from Triple A as per Yankees PR Department.
Another brilliant move, welcome back Nestor, happy to have you as an additional cog in the Yankee wheel.
Seen on ESPN Sidecar: Boner to Estrada on being sent down "You know you can play up here. You know can come up here and help us win games. We know that,but now take advantage of this time where you're getting more times at bat." This to an enterprising 23 year old hitting .286 with 3 bombs, with 11 steaks. Who seen Morales get played on a daily basis and probably wonders why. Bullshit Babbling Boner. What a total pipeline of sewage he fed that kid,
With didi back the kid isnt going to play...so let him play everyday down in the minors to keep developing both with the bat and in the field
It's a good point to give Estrada more playing time. But- I'd rather of seen Morales DFA. Let LMHU spell Voit at 1st Let LMHU spell Gio at 3rd Use Thairo spell LMHU at 2nd, and play him at 2nd when LMHU is giving both Voit and Gio. GT's had 2 days off due to shoulder soreness. I gotta bad feeling GT is next on the DL. Wishful thinking. We still need some solid pitching. Keep in mind DiDi is a Free Agent at the end of this Season.

Today 50 years ago; The Mick's number 7 was retired. "A Day to Remember". My 3rd and last game at YS for the next 20 yrs. Everyone in Attendance got a 4" button/pin and a "A Day to Remember" Commemorative Collectors Program, a Historic remembrance of Micks Career...
Agh! This is what has become of Yankee tradition. Let’s bullshit our way to ‘Never, Never, Neverland’.
How is this bullshit...DJ will be rotating between 2nd, ss and 3rd. Im allnfor releasing morales but he is a switch hitter with some power. Estrada is behind multiple players at multiple positions. The issue is more to the fact we carry like 13 pitchers.
Cortes for Tanaka. Think about it.......what a move. Congrats to both gentlemen. Tanaka gets a break from his one inning ‘shitting the bed’ performances....as he helps his wife clean up baby’s doo doo! Meanwhile, Cortes will support the team’s relief corp with his nonpareil 4.93 ERA. I’d say that’s a win-win for both gents!
