NYC Really Is Like The '80s Again: The 2022 New York Yankees Season Thread

Tonight’s ball was a legitimate hit but I’m very worried about IKF in a huge game, he makes me super nervous.

His only saving grace is that he's not a bad 2 strike hitter. Otherwise, this team needs a jolt because ASB can't come soon enough.

Two failed attempts to get a double play defensively only to end the game on one. All star break can’t come soon enough

If IKF is gonna be anything other than a GG caliber SS, then he shouldn't be starting.

Not that I was expecting Ozzie Smith, but he's been type underwhelming, considering what we were promised

Yeah they need a break. They gassed.

These games happen. shyt sucks but that's reality.

168 games, they were bound to have a skid.

Yeah he's been ass for the past couple of weeks and change.

 

[g-ice]

Nah, for real it's crazy how almost every game they've lost this year is because they practically beat themselves.

He hasn't been very good at all. He's Gleyber with tempered expectations.

The idea of IKF was that he'd be a stopgap who was versatile defensively, but we waste all that on the one position he plays the least. On this team he's not asked to do anything but play SS. Marwin has been more as advertised in the IKF role than IKF has. At the very least, that should be a straight up platoon because 6-9 in the lineup is rarely even giving you the occasional big hit.

2nd half of the schedule isn't exactly easy either.

Astros/O's/Mets all on the road right after the break


Still haven't gone out west. They gotta do it twice. Most of the easy games are over.

Benintendi unvaxxed. Guess him being a Yankee isn’t gonna happen.

Then Ian Happ is the other option then.

Comedy!

this nikka out here throwing batting practice

 

[g-ice]

Yeah trades need to start happening now.

Severino may have a dead arm at this point.

Fastball looks lifeless.

 

[3rdLetter]

Sevy fastball only 94, slider flat. Something's up with him.

His Change up sitting at 85/86. Something ain’t right.
