2022 Yankees Season

[RoofBeam]

Matt Carpenter was left for dead until he came to the Yankees. Explain that one

It was a good move by Cash but Carpenter had performed very well in the minors before the Yankees signed him- that is why Carpenter opted out of the minor league contract. He had already made the adjustments in his approach long before he got to the Bronx.

Joey Whiff was actually 2-3 the other night...Ummmm, maybe there is something wrong with the way the Yankees do things?

Yeah, imagine how many more home runs Judge would hit if he played for someone else

4 hits in 27 innings ? That seems wrong

4 hits since May 22.

That trade makes no sense to me. Monty was a decent pitcher with a low contract and seemed like a good clubhouse guy. We received someone that was hurt and an average player at best.

Carpenter was undoubtedly a good pickup, even if his season is over. With that said, we got him on the very cheap, having to give up nobody. It was an extremely low risk acquisition.

An acquisition any other team could have made.

When Bader steals that base in the post-season though...

It will be like a Kirk Gibson moment; he'll hobble out there to run for someone and then steal home in the bottom of the ninth inning of a tie game.

I’d say better than good, dude was on a historic pace.

It seems the Yankee batters try to lift/pull everything, swinging up. They get in this funk every now and then. Which is why opposing pitchers have been pitching them mostly down & down/away. Tampa and the Jays beat them by slapping the ball all over. Someone's got to make an adjustment somewhere.

And ftr, I really wanted Gallo to fit in NYY.

Or just watch the game on SNY with the Mets announcers.

I don’t believe what I just saw!

 

[OrangeXtreme]

Did they drink Jobu's rum?

 

[kirbivore]

Phew! Trivino showed himself capable with a six out save, from the left side. Hear that, Chappy?

It was good to see Cole show some passion. Most of the team has been attaching new meaning onto the term "phlegmatic."

I saw that as a fake tough guy compensating for his Saturday failure. Fraudulent ace.

He's a strange dude. Doesn't seem like the type to fire up and lead a team, and there's nothing wrong with that. Just pitch better.

Curious to see the ratings in the NYC area for this.

There are 163 million Prime Subscribers in the USA. Only about 76 million cable/satellite subscribers.

I assume Florial is gone after this season with Mays (I mean Bader) holding down CF in years to come?

Florial still has a option year left. They can stash him at SWB as depth for 2023, or move him if needed.

How do options work. Do you have an unlimited amount in a given year for a player?

Each player has 3 "option years".

During each year, you can only move a player up and back 5 times.

If a player is out of options, you have to DFA him (Designate for Assignment). Another team can claim him from waivers. In a lot of cases, the player passes through waivers unclaimed, and the Yankees re-sign him to a minor league contract and stick him back in SWB.
