    2023-24 Yankees Offseason Discussion

    Dillon Lawson was basically a college coach before the Yanks hired him in 2018 as minor league hitting coordinator. Which is amazing, that he would begin his new job in such an elevated position. Just seems like Rowson comes from the same process that put Lawson in pinstripes. From Lawson to...

    Rowson seems to have strong credentials but Eric Chavez is a quality coach with the cred of a former big league hitter. I thought Yankee players communicated better with Sean Casey than his predecessor for the same reason.,

    Judge have anything to do with this? He almost seems like a member of management since this season went sour.

    An ode to Jim Caple (RIP)

    As a caregiver, I can really appreciate Vicky’s line: “I can still touch him.” Dementia steals a person’s mind but it leaves the body mostly untouched. Wonderful tribute. So sad.

    Yanks have turned away from the lefty power bats that keyed most of the dynasty years. They need at least one more quality lefty bat besides Wells. Dominguez being a switch hitter is another missing element of the old days.

    Gleyber caught overrunning third base to end inning. Yanks up 4-0. Buried the lead: Stanton singled in two runs before Gleyber fell asleep.

    Boone has really overplayed his hand with umps. The ump last night shouted at the dugout. “I hope you are not talking to me!”

    Yanks need to “Ellsbury” Stanton. Stick him on the 60-day in April and let him jog around Tampa like Ellsbury did late in his pinstripes existence. Do it for two years. Keep him away from the young players. Then buy him out in 2026.

    Stanton struck out his first two times up tonight, on just 7 pitches, concluded his night by hitting into two DPs.

    Stanton just pulled a Manny Ramirez at home plate, looking at three straight strikes and heading back to the dugout. Woof!

    The lack of hitting was really tough to watch. So many swings and misses. Somebody said the big swing might work for Judge but not everyone else in the lineup.

    Rafaela homers to make it a 2-0 game. 316 feet, barely fair. Vegas closed the bet on Yankees scoring this afternoon. Especially with Whitlock pitching in the shadows.

    Damn. Casas drills Weissert in the foot. Caroms directly to Bauers at first. Laughably good luck on the carom. Except for Weissert. He stays in but that will hurt tonight.
