It Was Fun While It Lasted: The Official 2024 New York Yankees Off-Season Thread

when Dominguez comes back, Verdugo's losing time regardless.

I guess, it's funny how Dominguez is being treated like the solution to some lineup problems but he's played 8 MLB games. He's very unproven.

What? I thought he had next?

I don't think Jazz Chisholm is a good hitter.

He's a tools guy and so to a lot of scouts he's somewhat of a darling. But we've seen lots of guys like this flop before. Cameron Maybin comes to mind.

You get Jazz Chisholm and you're praying that he catches lightning in a bottle and becomes Curtis Granderson for a few years.

Unlikely.
And if I were the GM, I would pass.

Team makes me sigh daily.

Joey Gallo had a .660 ops as a Yankee for some context.

Staggering. And an indictment.

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

Staggering. And an indictment.

27th in ops out of the leadoff spot and 23rd in ops out of the 8th spot too. It’s incomprehensible that the man who put this roster together was allowed to enter this season employed at all given how bad he’d been the previous 5-6 years.

What? I thought he had next?

At least he got The Show Cover,even if its to Highlight The Negro Leagues part of it

Also hope that he can stay healthy.

Mets kicking Cole's ass again

Cole looking like Rodon out there

This has been a disappointing start

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Yeah.

We gon need to make some moves at the headline.

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

Yeah.

We gon need to make some moves at the headline.

3 new bats and 2 new arms along with new leadership at the top of the organization. Anyone shopping all of that ? This team really reminds me of the 2021 squad in the sense that they give up as soon as they fall behind and they can’t put anyone away. No heart at all, and that comes from the top down with how mediocrity is acceptable to the front office.

This team during bases loaded situations
Teams have been throwing breaking balls to the outside corner and Volpe hits a weak groundball to the left side every time.
