Only Ellsbury could hurt himself while rehabbing from a completely unrelated injury.


Cashman must punch himself in the nuts every time he sees his name on the 40 man.

Sigh.

2 more years after this one too. Jacoby is laughing all the way to the bank.

Didi Gregorius developing into elite hitter

Now, in 2018, Gregorius leads the American League in slugging and OPS. Yes, it's early in the year, but he showed flashes of this kind of hitting last year, so this doesn't feel fluky at all.

Gregorius has just four strikeouts in 49 at-bats. He is developing scary plate discipline (his 12 walks through 15 games is nearly half as many as he had in 2017). Gregorius has a lot of power. He suddenly looks like a younger version of Robinson Cano.

Earlier in the year, we were asking who the best left-handed hitter in the AL is. Well, it might be Gregorius.

Where's that SS ranking list we saw a few months ago?

This kid has great stuff....Santa Jeter, can we please have him?

I'd love for the Yankees to bring in a pitcher with more walks than strikeouts.

Got to get better starting pitching on a consistent basis.

Even lousy Yankee teams would be embarrassed to be .500 at home, and this isn't a lousy team.

Just extremely frustrating. They will get it together......someday.
