This Moustakas stuff better be nonsense.

Pitching, pitching, pitching. Absolutely no need whatsoever for this guy.

Yup, makes very little sense unless he's bringing some good gyros with him covered in tzatziki sauce.....The place Karavas on West 4th and 7th was awesome back in the day....We'd leave the Slaughtered Lamb shitfaced and stumble down for some sandwiches.....

You have to remember this one from back in the day "they fixed a flaw in his swing and it's increased his power." ~ Rock ~

Right because only Yankee players are allowed to have odd power surges that are absolutely 100% clean, but Ortiz, Bautista, Encarncion were all roiding. Aaron Hicks was always this homer happy, the Twins just didn't give him enough ABs to prove it, right?


Now to be clear I think think all three of those players used. Just like I suspect a couple of users in the Yankee dugout.

It's only suspicious if someone's doing it against the Yankees.

Not really, but the defense team had the usual answer " he was never caught" Manny & Big Papi were as dirty as Arod who was rarely defended by anyone.....

Not like there was a completely biased report released by George Mitchell, former Red Sox Director and current board member, that named a shit ton of Yankees, nary a Red Sox.

Can't imagine why Yankee fans might be defensive on the subject.

Played ball all my life, what the fack is a hip injury????? unless you had a major collision with a catcher or a wall this ain’t good. Steroids, first thing that goes are the hip. At such a young age, what the fack are these kids taking?

 

[nynasty]

1. Brett Gardner (L) LF
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Aaron Hicks (S) CF
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Didi Gregorius (L) SS
6. Miguel Andujar (R) 3B
7. Greg Bird (L) 1B

Hicks making a case for an ASG spot? Dude has been on fire as of late, and appears to be at worst a top 8 OF'er in the AL.

Sonny Gray = Ed Whitson

As soon as Tanaka is ready, Gray needs to be the first one bumped.

That said, 2 runs is all they could manage against that schlep?

Yeesh.

10 of NY's 29 losses have been started by Sonny Gray.

Not a good ratio.

A guy with an era approaching 6 shouldn't still be in the rotation in July.

Sure @navamind will tell us how Gray actually been good this year

He just doesn't have the stones. Took me a long time to accept it, and thought he was turning a corner up until his last few starts, but he just kind of gave in last night and was throwing BP. Can't have it.

Flip side-Hell of a job by David Hale in relief. Gave them a chance to come back against a lousy starter and bullpen-they just didn't.

Same this start really did it for me. I was used to him pitching like shit in the bronx but to do the same in Toronto against a mediore team annoyed me.

I really want him gone but he doesn't have any trade value due to how poor he's been this season

I've finally come to the conclusion that Navamind has to be Sonny Gray or Neil Walker.....We already know that Pasta is Ellsbury and there's chance that Nasty is Greg Bird.....

LOL

Nah, I'm just hopelessly in love with his swing.

The lack of overall production from that gorgeous swing aggravates me to no end.
