And DJ goes yard. An embarrassment of riches.
He's my favorite this year, in a team worthy of a lot of favorites.
Best call of the night was grounds crew telling the home plate ump "I'd keep playing, I don't think the heavy stuff is gonna come down for quite a while". Next pitch, Gleyber 3 run HR.
Am I crazy to prefer Frazier and Maybin over Stanton and Gardner? I like Stanton at DH, but Encarnacion is better than him there.If they DFA Maybin, we riot !!
What the Hale
He wouldn't pitch again until next week anyways.
YesAm I crazy to prefer Frazier and Maybin over Stanton and Gardner?
Can we keep him, Dad? Can we? Can we?The Sanchino goes BOOM!!
This I believe, is an intelligent decision. Maybin is an experienced and dependable outfielder, as well as a decent hitter and base-runner, on a team with several injury questions not yet completely resolved. Yes I like CF, and appreciate his good performance during the Yanks' time of need. But playoff runs are generally carried on the backs of veterans. This is a good decision. And when it comes close to the end of July, Frazier will fetch a better pitcher than Maybin will.
But I've been wrong before.
And that solves the Maybin issue...
