Baseball days off are so dumb. Hicks, Torres and Andujar all played in both games anyway.

Bye Chasen Shreve, maybe one of the most "just-a-guy" Yankees we've had in a while

Apparently it was to clear the 40 man spot and get the international pool cash.

I'm generally down on bird, but he barely missed 2 homeruns today and then finally got that late one tonight. Combined with some other hard luck outs the past few days. Would really be nice if he started coming on to pick up the slack while judge was out.

Would really be nice if he started coming on to pick up the slack while judge was out. Bird is like the starters with "Great Stuff™" that just don't seem to get past the third inning much. That swing is a thing of beauty, and he *almost* is mashing the ball all the time. Then just when you are going to give up on him he hits one out and you say "okay, I'll give him another shot."

They have no choice but to play Bird and Walker every day now. Hopefully they keep hitting.

ihatepants posted:Man, Sevy has hit a wall and hasn’t pitched well since that game against Boston on the 1st. Getting blown out by the Royals is unacceptable. This isn't Sonny Gray in April bad. He's looked fine and then fallen apart. E.g., the last Rays start where he was fine before the defense hosed him, and then he promptly gave up the HR. Anyway, Chasen Shreve sucks and always has, but I'm not a fan of the recent trade away all the depth because otherwise they'll lose it in the Rule V draft strategy. Those deals will still be there after the season. We've already been hosed by trading away too many corner OF bats, and now we don't have Frazier/Judge insurance. Relievers are volatile too, and now we have less leeway if some start going bad. I'm also mad that the Yankees were historically good at developing fringe talent from 2015-2017, and keep getting 60-80 cents on the dollar for a lot of them.

None of the guys they traded have really had any success anywhere else other than I guess Pierce who is magically a good hitter now with Boston. The Frazier injury is worse than any of these trades as far as what is hurting the current depth. He would be here playing every day.

E.g., the last Rays start where he was fine before the defense hosed him, and then he promptly gave up the HR. He's given up 33 hits, 7 homers and 19 earned runs in his last 19 1/3 innings. That's pretty bad and arguably worse than Gray's April. And he looks like he's getting progressively worse each time out. He's likely either in a dead arm phase or tipping his pitches (because it looked like the Royals were all over his fastball today). Either way, if he doesn't improve and pitch like the ace the team needs, the team is in serious trouble.

I don't give a poo poo about grounders that find a hole because Andujar and Walker are defensive butchers. His problem is he's giving up too many homers, but again watching the games, it seemed like more of a confidence thing after his teammates failed him. mcmagic posted:None of the guys they traded have really had any success anywhere else other than I guess Pierce who is magically a good hitter now with Boston.

The Yankees over the past few years have been simultaneously one of the best run franchises in baseball, and far too surrendering of MLB talent in trades because of 40 man roster issues. Gamel, Cave, McKinney, Pazos, Fowler, Caleb Smith, and with the small chance Luis Torrens turns into something, and all the random RHP relievers they've traded. That's better than at least the track record of 10 teams in developing MLB talent over that time span. Kim Jong Il fucked around with this message at 23:21 on Jul 29, 2018 |

So when the Yanks traded Shreve they got some extra international pool bonus money. They then used that money to sign the #1 international pitching prospect. He's a 16 year old Cuban kid who throws 95 mph. Cashman is a wizard.

Tyler Austin was just pulled from the game, so something must be in the pipe. Also the Yankees are trying to build their own Ohtani and it's lovably insane. Inspector_666 fucked around with this message at 22:44 on Jul 30, 2018 |

Very weird that they would give Warren away for nothing. He's had a very good year... Especially to a team that might be playing them in the WC game. Another thing I don't like is giving up some huge package for Chris Archer. He's not an elite pitcher.

His July actually is decent overall, his ERA is just inflated for the month because he gave up 7 runs in 1 inning against the Cubs. Also, Tyler Austin sucks and is a platoon bat against lefties at the very best. He was striking out at almost 50% of his at bats against RHP.

This is nothing but speculation, but I have a sinking feeling that they traded for Lynn because they need to DL Severino. I don't really like the trade, either, but it wasn't absolutely awful because Austin is out of options after this year anyway.
