    I hope I'm proven wrong, but it's a terrible hire for me.

    Not a single day of coaching experience.  This could get ugly quick. 
    I'll ride the wave where it takes me......

    Exactly.

    With the talent the NYY have any of us can manage &  win.

    Some baseball people really like this. I'm not gonna talk myself into it, though the wife of all people talked me off a ledge. She was thrown into a position about 3 levels above where she was at with basically no experience and now has the account in the best position it has been in. There's hope

    Small market on the west coast, rather than win now. Dude a a vag

    Damn that means the Dodgers. Was hoping if the Yankees didn't get him. Jeter can make his first big move.

    I guess this didn't help get Ohtani?

    An awesome tradition Cashman does every year for a good cause.  Has turned into a little December state of the Yankees press conference too.

    Yes it is. But, i thought it was a little strange to try and recruit Othani doing what he did. Maybe Ohtani thought it was strange also? If he understood it.

    I don't like the Daily News cover about Ohtani

    Everybody should.  An honor bestowed on only the most highly thought of. An opportunity to rub elbows with legends. An opportunity that if given, should always be taken advantage of.

    Fuck that guy.

    Also, Maddux, Cliff Lee and the Japanese Babe Ruth.  Have fun in Seattle.  I am sure Robbie will tell you how horrible of a decision you made.

    Imagine Stanton?


  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,827
    So let's just start out by saying this isn't going to happen, buuuuuut, we can dream right?  Would this be the top of the lineup?

    Didi
    Bird
    Sanchez
    Judge
    Stanton

    I'd put Judge in clean up to get him more pitches to hit in front of Stanton.

    Whichever team overpays for GS should anticipate a lot of DNPs due to injuries.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved
