Per Clint Frazier post game interview in his own words he (Frazier) was sent down due to pending arrivals of Judge & Stanton. My own view of the Yankee Outfield was Judge, Hicks & Frazier with Gardner as 4th guy. The "K" man would have been the DH with probably Morales & or Maybin gone. Insert Encarnacion into a lineup with Stanton, Judge, and Sanchez and there will be many strikeout. We will see how all this shit pans out over the next seven games for starters. Frazier, screwed, blued, and tattooed.. Cashman & Boner hang your heads in shame.
I have posted that Gardner is like a roach, Just when you think he's gone he comes back in an unexpected fashion. My view of Gardner after being resigned is that he'd be 4th outfielder behind Judge, Hicks, and Frazier. That did not happen when Hicks, Judge, and Stanton started he sick books. Say what one will but Gardner has gotten some huge hits for his team this season. People criticize his arm but the man can still run down and catch the ball. Tauchman, Maybiin, or Morales shoud have been the lead "odd men out" but someone probably Cashman chose Frazier. Was it fair, hell no. Encarnacion: a Seattle Salary dump.
I'd love to see Billy Martin Manage this bunch of prima Donna's, moreso I'd love to see the weekly news of- Billy decks Trashman after another dumb move by the GM.... Honestly though- I seriously doubt Billy would work for the lil asshole. But we know he'd be up Hal and Hanks asses, maybe serve as a serious reminder how Daddy would run this Organization....
Insane to send Frazier down and keep Tauchman. Crazy- Dumb to send anyone down with a 122 wRC+ and a .850 OPS WRC Is- Weighted Runs Created (wRC) is an improved version of Bill James’ Runs Created (RC) statistic, which attempted to quantify a player’s total offensive value and measure it by runs. In Runs Created, instead of looking at a player’s line and listing out all the details (e.g. 23 2B, 15 HR, 55 BB, 110 K, 19 SB, 5 CS), the information is synthesized into one metric in order to say, “Player X was worth 24 runs to his team last year.”
LeMahieu -3B Voit -1B Hicks -CF Sanchez -C Encarnacion -DH Gregorious -SS Torres -2B Maybin -RF Gardner -LF
Brian Kenny pumping MLB viewers full of Encarnacion bulllshit and meaningless stats. "Edwin leads all MLB power hitters in HR's and RBI's", ok granted. But this lineup even with Judge and Stanton is not today's Murderers Row !!! I wanna know what masking agents players are using to stay ahead of the Curve of testing. Masking agents evolving overtime always seem to be one step ahead of the latest testing techniques... 1927 Non-Pitchers .396 OBP% .511 SLG% .906 OPS- 2018 Non-Pitchers .330 OBP% .453 SLG% .783 OPS 2019 .336 .450 .782 Will the addition of the another Big Bopper make a difference? Yep, but imo not enough to be called Murderers Row Version II Never - ...
Brian Kenney: another obnoxious pseudo-intellectual nerd bullshit artist who never played the game. One of these days some ball player is going to knock him on his can in a manner that a football player did to Rome.
The Yankees need to find that sense of urgency which propels them to take charge, and as we used to say in the Army take names and kick ass.
Watching MLB pre-game getting a chuckle out of Verducci talking shit about pitching to Leiter. Verducci & Kenney the dynamic duo.
Good Old MLB Network, this area gets Phillies & Nats instead of the Yankees/Tampa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&*&*&*^)^)^_^&%%9
I'm ssoooo jealous!!! I will trade you this LA Ghetto and a lifetime of free sand, my Dog and 1sr born, all for your YES Channel... Thank God this game is not at the Trop. If Murderers Row played at The Trop, I'd become a Mutts Fan, or watch black and white 1950's reruns of Mick and deBoyz..
