    Probably a mix of what everyone is saying. 2 inning bridge guy at first and if he looks electric out there they will keep moving him up the pecking order.

    Anyone remember the legend of K-Rod? 23 years ago the Angels called up the 20 year old reliever in mid September. He threw 5 scoreless innings before the postseason started. He then threw 18.2 innings in the playoffs (4th most on the team despite being a reliever) while piling up 28 strikeouts and allowing just 10 hits and 4 ER. 3 out of their 4 starting pitchers had FIPs over 5.50 that postseason but he and Lackey teamed up to give them a chance to win it all and they did. Get Yeasavage up here and let's see what he's got!

    Stack the lineup with righties be ready for his changeup!

    Gausman has been such a good FA signing. 5 years, 110 mil and so far we've gotten '22: 5.5 WAR '23: 5.3 '24: 3.0 '25: should finish with about 3.5ish '26: final year

    Yankees season rides on Shitler tonight Hopefully his confidence is shot after we gas-canned him last week

    Great game by Gaus and a good series overall The AL East is in our sights
  7. Terminator
    It's nice to get this dominating win in the books early The Yanks are going to crumble under the pressure tonight in what is now a must-win game for them
  8. Terminator
    Gausman has been on fire in the 2nd half He might even be SP1 for the playoffs at this point Either way he and Bieber could make for a pretty formidable duo atop our playoff rotation

    I also wonder if the Jays are working under some interesting theories regarding their pinch hitters. Pinch hitting is hard and it seems like most players take a big hit in production when they do it. It might make sense to use batters who can simply put the ball in play and try to get some BABIP luck. Maybe that's why the Jays pinch hit with IKF, Straw, France, etc. since they don't strike out much. SSS alert (always will be when it comes to pinch hitting), but: IKF has a 134 wRC+ in 30 pinch hit plate appearances Schneider has a 27 wRC+ in 32 PAs
  10. Terminator
    Yeah I can see the argument to dump IKF but he's not the worst bench player in the world. He's a pretty decent one actually as he has some good bench skills (defense, baserunning) and projects for about 1.5 WAR per 150 games.
  11. Terminator
    In that scenario, I would probably add him to the pile of bench pieces like IKF, France, Straw, etc. and play him when the situation calls for it. I suppose if everyone is healthy someone will be left off though. Loperfido is an easy demotion but we also will have Bo coming back. If Taters looks totally clueless at the plate then maybe he is the guy who is left off.

    If during a low pressure game she puts up one of the worst ump performances in history imagine how she'll do when the stakes are high! End this travesty!
  13. Terminator
    What if he comes back and mashes?
  14. Terminator
    Yes, thank heavens we dodged that nightmare scenario. Instead, the only issue is that her umpiring is actively swinging games for teams by as much as 2.5 runs. That's far more preferable.
  15. Terminator
    How long do ump numbers take to stabilize? Doesn't take long for pitch framing to stabilize and I bet ump grading is similar. Both are high volume events so you are obtaining data at a very high rate. Also, both are controlled events that don't rely on batted ball luck or anything like that. So yeah, I'm pretty sure that she sucks. It's time to pull the plug.
  16. Terminator
    Well the fact that she's been utter trash isn't helping the narrative that she was deserving of her shot lol

    Springer's fly out would have been in the 2nd deck at Yankee Stadium

    Velo looks solid, fastball and slurve are moving, location looks amazing

    What manager in baseball is going to have the courage to do the right thing and get ejected after arguing balls and strikes with Jen Pawol? God knows she's giving these managers ample opportunity but none of them have the balls to do it Might be the one scenario where Aaron Boone could actually step up
  21. Terminator
    Brutal game for Jen Pawol last night. 2.5 runs for one team is the highest I can remember lol. It's only been 3 games but she has the lowest accuracy of any umpire this year. https://umpscorecards.com/data/umpires

    Blue Jays now lead MLB in position player fWAR. 1st in Defense 3rd in Offense 26th in baserunning

    Vlad is fat and plays 1B so you would assume he's not very athletic. But he has sneaky athleticism and is young so Altuve underrated it twice. Vlad almost got a "bolt" on the the grounder he beat out to first.

    They spent almost 70 mil in AAV this offseason but it was all on one year deals outside of Tyler O'Neill (a guy they didn't need) so they were kind of cheap, kind of not. OF Tyler O'Neill: Three years, $49.5MM (O'Neill can opt out after 2025) RHP Charlie Morton: One year, $15MM RHP Tomoyuki Sugano: One year, $13MM RHP Andrew Kittredge: One year, $10MM (including $1MM buyout on 2026 club option) C Gary Sánchez: One year, $8.5MM OF Ramón Laureano: One year, $4MM (deal also has 2026 club option) OF Dylan Carlson: One year, $975K I think they thought they could dumpster dive on the rotation and rely on producing an elite bullpen again but you're a fool if you think you can build an elite bullpen year in, year out.

    I'm glad we get them at home.
