Some Yankees news, not sure how I feel about the Stroman signing.

 

Edited January 12, 20242 yr by bustamente

I don't love the move. He better be 4th or 5th on the rotation. We still need another starting arm before the season and more depth in the bullpen.

Nicer weather and I'm starting to think about training camp, as for Stroman he had a great start but fizzled near the end of the year. Bullpen needs help for sure and Holmes blew a lot of games last year.

The Stro-Show wasn't very healthy in the 2nd half. Let's hope he stays 100% all year. But, he's a Yankee now, so he'll need three months on the IL and TJ by September. 

My oldest has been playing baseball since September. Indoor camps since November. Just the sound of the bat each week makes me miss summer. 

I'm sitting, watching him now. 

Disappointed they didn't add Hader. But, no way I'm giving him 5/96. That's too much, for too long.

I just hope Holmes has a bounce back season he was very hittable down the stretch. We need some solid starters behind Cole this year on solid start every 6 days is not good enough also GianCarlo and Judge to stay healthy tho I think GianCarlo's best days are way behind him.

I think Holmes got tired. I'm not worried if we can't keep some releivers healthy this year. Spread out the workload. Losing King in rhe bullpen is going to hurt but he was done there anyhow. 

Stanton still played a lot of games last year but was ineffective. I just hope he's our second choice dh this year.

I'm going to miss Cavnar on MLB Radio. 

So much fanfare when the Jays signed him, didn't really accomplish much mostly injured and now leaves MLB all together

 

F*****g Vegas man!

 

I don't know the exterior looks a little too much like the Opera House in Sydney

 

and apparently I'm not the only one who feels that way

Yankees starting pitching is going to take a massive hit. Gerrit Cole has arm trouble

 

The Oakland A's are heading to Sacramento next year while they wait for their baseball park to be built in Las Vegas

Rumours are the ppl in Vegas aren’t thrilled about the As going there. Not because they aren’t baseball fans but because the owner is a ****** and has built quite the reputation over the years of being a penny pincher. 
 

golden knights work there because they are good. The nfl works there cuz it’s a machine. A bad baseball team with an owner who doesn’t have the best reputation? Not gonna work.

Doesn’t really look like the opera house. I mean kinda but on closer inspection, not really at all. 

Basketball will be in Vegas in 5 years making it a 4 sport town and I bet nobody would of thought that about a destination city.

It's a continuation of the MLB story, just like mentioning the the Golden Knights.

Jays - Yankees this weekend. Should be fun. I hope Stro-Show throws high and in on Bichette to get the rivalry going. (I don't want him to hit him)

The only thing I don't like about the Jays-Yankees series is that I have to listen to the Jays godawful announcing, with the exception of Shulman.

I have MLB TV but they block it for the inferior Sportsnet coverage. Buck is so out of touch.

For those who do not have Kodi....  a good ad blocker + sportsurge.net   can get you most streams for any sports.

Yup there are many avenues to get what you want streamed and not be beholden to cable companies and corporations that have consumers by the nuts.

14 games in for the Jays and the the knives are out for GM Adkins and Manager Schneider.

Angel Hernandez was at it again last night 3 consecutive pitches out of the strike zone all called strikes, he should of been fired years ago but after last night apparently being incompetent is part of the job.
