He'll report to Scranton, missing Greg Bird by one day. Still has the speed. Shall they race him against Tim Locastro?
It's the opening tremor... the ground is soon to move.
Hats off to the IIHIIFIIc Photoshop Department for this artistic depiction of how Wade might look in a Yankee uniform. Well done, people.
Bringing back Wade for a player to be named later? My guess would be either Andujar or Florial. Brain Cashman's stupid logic.
ReplyDeleteNow that's a photoshop department I'd be happy to join :)
ReplyDeleteI saw part of a Scranton game on the carmines' network when they were playing their AAA team. Bird looked awful. A sad story. Sadder than Nick Johnson.
ReplyDeleteI too, commend the photoshop department. Could they draw one up of Joey Callo bunting into the shift? i.e., actually making contact?
While not making much bat contact, Gallows surely makes a lot of eye contact.
DeleteI believe he was DFA and not waived. If waived, another team could just claim him for nothing. When you are DFA, the team has 10 days to make a trade or you get released. The leverage is always with the acquiring team unless it's a surprise move of a player still contributing. That very rarely happens. Obviously, the Yankees wanted him back and thought another team might also decide to grab him. I doubt they are giving up a player very high on their organizational chart.
ReplyDeleteEh. I dunno. To me, the photoshopping is mediocre. The helmet looks much too big. He looks like an alien! And look how young he looks! Is he a child?
ReplyDeleteI would have trouble believing this guy—what'd you say his name was again?—could ever play for the Yankees.
Also, I'm depressed to hear that we gave up anything for him. Hoping somehow it will turn out to be Joey G.
ReplyDelete@ Horace....Yes, The Angels do need another OF since Trout might have longer term back problems. Unfortunately., almost all PTBNL are done after the season ends. By then, Gallows will be a free agent.
ReplyDeleteThis poor guy thought he was free and now he’s been consigned back to the pergatory known as Scranton.
ReplyDeleteThe Twitch© would thrive in Anaheim - if no other reason than Disneyland is 3.8 miles away and he's so darn Goofy . . .
ReplyDeleteJoey Gallo, last calendar month
ReplyDelete.105/.282/.263 (.545 OPS)
Yet he's still in the lineup. And not even batting 9th.
I don't get it.
The likelihood is the PTBNL will be someone the team needs to clear from their 40 man roster.
ReplyDeleteThey will have several players they will need to add to it to avoid the Rule 5 draft.
It won’t be anyone earthshaking. Devi Garcia, perhaps.
Zach, it’s all about his salary - and cashman’s ego.
ReplyDeleteFrom the Team PR Dept
ReplyDeletePrior to tonight’s game, the Yankees made the following roster moves:
•Reinstated RHP Jonathan Loáisiga (#43) from the 15-day IL
•Placed RHP Luis Severino on the 15-day IL with a low grade right lat strain
•Selected RHP Ryan Weber (#85) to the 26-man roster from Triple-A SWB
Severino suffered a lat strain once before and missed about 4 months.
There's the opening for German, if Sevvy is gone. If Cashman isn't trading him.
ReplyDeleteNestor tonight. Wonder how hard they hit him.
ReplyDeleteSo DJ is hitting.319 in his last 21 games. Not bad.
ReplyDeleteDamn, poor Sevvy! Man, that's terrible. I was really hoping he was past the curse this time.
ReplyDeleteDJ being back would be a huge lift.
ReplyDeleteNestor figuring it out would be nice, too.
ReplyDeleteChrist, they look like shit again
ReplyDelete...and here we go again.
ReplyDeleteReds take advantage of Carp’s infield arm in RF
ReplyDeleteNote to Boone: that’s why you put your best throwing arm in RF.
Meanwhile, our offense is futile as always against a good pitcher.
What do you think will happen in Oct against superior pitching?
That’s why it’s meaningless to worry about the postseason.
We don’t stand a chance.
I want the Ca$hman suite without paying for it.
ReplyDeleteump sucks again.
Why would Trevino ever bat behind Joey Callo?
ReplyDeleteWhy would Joey Callo ever bat?
ReplyDeleteWhy Joey Fallow?
ReplyDeleteSomeone should bid on the Brain Cashman's private suite ten ticket package and then invite the IIHIIF gang. Maybe Brian comes by...
ReplyDeleteHilarity ensues.
Doug,
ReplyDeleteAny idea what sort of simoleons that would take? I'd be in just for the ability to be a huckleberry in the palace.
It's the Rizzo Charity auction. YES keeps showing items.

Sorry that was last years here's the right one

It's 21K.

I'd be in for a grand if we could insult the intern, but it doesn't look like it's in our price point.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened? How'd Cincinnati get three more runs?
ReplyDeleteJM,
ReplyDeleteLasagna didn't do so well.
I take it Lasagna is not ready for prime time.
ReplyDeleteGleyber Day!!! Tie game!!
It's Gleyber day!
ReplyDeleteAmazing. It actually looked like the Gleyber missed hitting that one square.
ReplyDeleteCallo:
ReplyDelete4 outfielders. No attempt at a bunt.
At least he walked...
Good eye, Joey.
ReplyDeleteJust the one good one.
ReplyDeleteRufus,
ReplyDeleteIt was up to 27k last time i looked
I've reached my google limit tonight apparently. Night all.
ReplyDeleteYeah, the Yankees could probably use Castillo.......
ReplyDeleteAbreu has a great sinker. Jesus.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Rufus, it's always that one extra google you probably shouldn't have had.
ReplyDeleteLugnut coughs up a run. Of course. And Carpenter's inexperience in the outfield bitrs us.
ReplyDeleteYou mean he hocked up a Leutge.
DeleteWell, that about does it. Lugnut doesn't have it.
ReplyDeleteWorse yet, we ended up scoring two more runs. Aggravating.
