Don’t like how Boone is taking his foot off the gas by resting key players today against Tampa.

Re: **The Official New York Yankees Thread**
What is the logic there? Am I missing something? Can’t these guys play one more day and use the All Star Break to rest up? None of them are in the HR Derby, some are in the ASG but they won’t play a full game and it’s not at all a serious game that matters anymore. Plus 2 days of no games after that. Is that not enough rest time to stretch it one more day with some guys for a game against the Rays, a team it’s important to beat?
Guess they’ll need this extra off day considering the unstoppable force they’ll be playing coming out of the All Star Break. That Blue Jays roster is terrifying.Comment

The way Morton was pitching, I don't think it mattered."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

Re: **The Official New York Yankees Thread**
So reportedly Chapman will be opting out of the 2 years and 30M left on his deal after this season and hit FA. How far do you go to resign him?
I don’t know if I’d go more then 2 years. Don’t really trust him once that velocity starts to dip. He’s 31 now, his best years are very likely behind him after this season. I don’t think he’s very far off from starting to go downhill. Refusing to go more then 2 years likely means losing him but so be it in my opinion. Let someone else make that mistake and be stuck with a declining Chapman.Comment

"He gone."
Hopefully we win it this year so it doesn't hurt when he does. I don't see them paying him.
We also need to win this year so I can have my championship to remember. They put a patch on our jersey, I am outta here.Originally posted by G PericoComment

Re: **The Official New York Yankees Thread**
His injury updates are like reading a riddle at this point. The last one was "he's not close but has made several breakthroughs in the last 24-48 hours." Wut? Is this guy fighting for his life? I guess the Judge updates were similar but our medical staff is just weird.
I just remembered Tulo is a Yankee.Originally posted by G PericoComment

Re: **The Official New York Yankees Thread**
Yea I'm no medical professional. But I really get this feeling we need to reevaluate this training staff. Every position player has been hurt minus Who? Gio and D.J. it's been a bit absurd . Especially considering how young this team is.

Re: **The Official New York Yankees Thread**
I hated the Stanton trade the moment I heard about it.
In the meantime, I agree about Chapman. Let him walk.
Also what are the odds we make a run at Arenado when he hits free agency.

Re: **The Official New York Yankees Thread**
This just in. Chapman denies opt out reports. Says they were false. Hmm...

Where the hell is Andujar going to fit in next year? Think the Yankees got their infield of the future.

Boone slander will no longer be tolerated. We need hot mics for every manager-umpire confrontation. Rotowear had a "my guys are ****ing savages" shirt up in like 15 minutes.Originally posted by G PericoComment

Re: **The Official New York Yankees Thread**
#savagesinthebox needs to be trending all season. I want these guys wearing the shirts during warm-ups all post-season.
edit: I guess most people are just going with #savages. It works.Last edited by CMH; 07-19-2019, 02:12 PM."It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied.
