The Yankees have placed Matt Holliday on the 10 Day DL with Left Lumbar Strain and recalled Garrett Cooper from Triple A as per Bryan Hoch.
Greg Bird said there are no issues with Ankle Post Surgery and is extremely encouraged by his progress as per Meredith Marakovits.
Gardner -DH Frazier -LF Gregorious -SS Judge -RF Headley -1B Frazier -3B Ellsbury -CF Torreyes -2B Romine -C
That move sets the stage for hicks to come back and share the dh spot with judge, gardener and frazier. Holliday is done and can barely get the ball out of the infield and we won't see him again till september roster expansion. I think bird is back in the next couple of weeks and takes back first with headley and t frazier forming a right-left platoon at 3rd. Only missing ingredient is castro back and maybe next week to 10 days. Unless sanchez is brain dead he can't miss the message girardi sent today catching romine in a day after a night game which he never does. The message to sanchez is clear. Start catching the fucking ball and doing what your supposed to do defensively or your playing time is going to be at dh and giving romine a rest. Hopefully he gets the message as he still has a potent bat the team needs.
Between Hicks, Frazier, Gardner. Judge, you've got a pretty good OF/DH Group add in Sanchez as DH if applicable. Saw the Girardi take on Sanchez and agree, that is an important sensitive position. Ellsbury PR Duty. Watching MLB I'd hope Bird gets back but one never knows. Also watching the pitching in games ahead I do not see Jmo as a starter. Real crock of shit there, let that kid keep developing.
Now get out there and get that run back, tired of spending 3.5 to 4 hours of baseball to see you Yankees get your butts kicked.
Looks like Judge is riding the circuit with a To Be Determined return date. Give the poor state of this teams offense, the pitchers have to walk on eggs during game days.
This team has become so boring to watch. A once unstoppable offense. Now we sit and hope they can scratch out a run.
Two on, 1 out, offence stalls again. Damn Torreyes & Romine. At least Boston is losing to Chicago at this time don't know how long that will last.
Timely hitting...........not today so far. They are getting men on base, but then they are not able to break through........ Will someone on this team please get some runners home!!!!
