Remember the time Bryce Harper wanted to play for the Yankees and Cashman didn’t even call him or make an offer? And then Cashman said he couldn’t imagine Harper playing 1B? Good times.

Math was never your strong suit, TBH.

So a 4-2 game isnt competitive?

Or a 2-0?

Or a 2-0 game entering the bottom of the 7th?

No real baseball fan is turning off the tv is a team is up 2-3 in the late innings

To be fair Harper is only playing 1B due to his tommy john surgery...Cashman couldn't see into the future and know he would tear his ucl

That’s not the point. The point is that Harper most definitely can play 1B(as well as the OF when not dealing with shoulder issues).

How do you think the Harper/Judge duo would have looked in Yankee Stadium over the past 5 years?

That’s fair. However, I see 6 games decided by 5+ runs and another 2 games decided by 4+ runs, so far. There have also been 5 games decided by 3 runs(those are borderline). And it’s not just the games. The series have been mostly lopsided, as well. We haven’t had a single winner-take-all game yet.

He found a home there now. Phil’s organization got crowded in the OF in a hurry.

Is this enough time for you to admit that Zimmer had no business rushing Pedro like that? What a bizarre scene.

It was ironic that it was Zimmer, IMO, the face of the '78 collapse. Hell no he should've sat his ass on the bench. It was Posada that Pedro was threatening to brain anyway.
