    I thought Chapman would have gotten the day off. Not sure why he was brought
    in ?

    Yanks have won 3 out of 4 against Sale and would be 4 for 4 if not for last Sunday's chapman meltdown

    So Sanchez is a star, huh?

    It started last year.  I guess yanks should have made him the poster child of the team rather than Judge.

    45 home runs in his first 600 at bats and full wrap around season.  Should break the yankees catcher home run record this year.

    Has one fairly big issue in blocking balls, but is a pretty good catcher besides that.

    definitely.  I hope this 6-0 lead holds up.

    If he improves on the passed balls I'll be all in on him as a catcher.

    As a hitter I'm sold.

    Jorge wasn't good defensively. Sanchez so far is a better hitter. And Sanchez missed a month this year.

    I like him way better than Posada and I loved Posada!

    Oh did anyone see his pickoff at first over the weekend?

    Sanchez that is.

    I meeeeean, guys, Posada is a guy who won 4 World Series titles with the Yankees and was their enforcer and a hell of a hitting catcher.  Posada is a Yankee legend.  I have made my love for Sanchez known, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.  Dude is one season into his career.  Let's revisit this in a decade.

    I think Posada got shafted on the HOF vote and he at least deserved a few years on the ballot
