On a positive note, Gardy starting to hit for his boy Pasta....Also, Tyler Wade can really run the bases, great instincts and gets a great jump off the crack of the bat.....Good afternoon Dirt.....

Is Ellsbury alive?

Is Ellsbury alive?

Apparently. I think they've worked out some kind of deal to keep him DL'ed. He gets his $21M, and insurance pays the Yankees back something like 80% of that.

Sounds like fraud. Typical.

Rays reveal Ybor City stadium details, including $892 million price tag

The stadium will seat 28,216 and, with standing areas, could hold 30,842. That would give it the smallest attendance capacity of any Major League Baseball venue. Tropicana Field's current capacity is 31,042.


Good call.

gray and happ the yankee 1-2 punch

According to Jon Heyman of Fancred, the Yankees "have J.A. Happ near the top of their realistic rotation trade options."

Heyman notes that the Yankees don't see Jacob deGrom or Noah Syndergaard as realistic. Happ has struggled mightily over his last two outings, with his season ERA rising to 4.44, but the peripherals are still pretty good -- including a 9.8 K/9 in 105 1/3 innings. The 35-year-old left-hander is in the final year of a three-year, $36 million deal.
