The Andujar situation is, as is usual with many Yankee situations, shameful. The guy has a tremendous year, has the bad luck to get injured, and they give his job away to a guy who had one fine, completely outlier, fill-in year.
It's really such a pathetic organization in so many ways. How they manage to even win a Wild Card with regularity is a mystery.
Torres is not a shortstop, but he plays one on TV, and his fielding issues might be effecting his head enough to create batting issues.
Stanton is a monster, but can't play for three weeks straight.
The Yankees are committed to Sanchez, who never could catch and is now revealed as being unable to hit.
We have our center fielder for forever, just like we had Damon, and if we're lucky he'll go the same sad route so we can put someone who can hit out there.
Our new rotation is Cole and a couple guys whose rubber bands might give out at any time, plus Montgomery. King and Clarke? The kids aren't alright. How German won't be a fucked up head case is a mystery. Sevvy is a ghost. Our closer throws big game meatballs and is in continual danger of booting save attempts.
Our manager has highly questionable in-game chops, but gee, he's a nice guy and is even blander than Jeter when facing the press.
Did we ever figure out where all the injuries were coming from? The training staff? The strength coach? God? Cthulu?
How any sportswriter can pick this team to win the division, even against weakened competition, is beyond me.
And yes, you can bet your ass I'll be glued to the tube on Opening Day and practically every game day thereafter. This is the Curse of the Ancient Mariner Yankee Fan.
So what you're saying is, there's a chance.

ReplyDeleteI think Aaron Judge's new teeth solve all issues. Forge ahead Yankees!!!
ReplyDeleteYou can't predict baseball, Doug. Or as the lottery commercials used to say, hey, ya never know.
ReplyDeleteKing is looking like a poor commoner.
