Tell him to get himself an underage country star and do some steroids. He is not living up to the Clemens standards

"GARRETT CROCHET IS IN HAL STEINBRENNER'S BAWX"

But yeah, he was not good yesterday. Miracle he gave up only 4. Bullpen did a good job, but unfortunately the bats just couldn't get much going. As inconsistent as most of the roster have been, I can't complain about the two big acquisitions so far (Bregman and Crochet).

I was glad the deal was only for three years and Bregman's been ok, but I'm sad that Marcello Mayer is just sitting in AAA...

I hated to see Clemens and Boggs in Yankees jerseys. No matter what they did, it seemed wrong. Damon I didn't mind.

Crochet has been bright spot for y'all so far.

As for Judge’s WAR, the only position player seasons on the books that top it by our measure belong to Ruth: 14.7 in 1923 (a year he homered only 41 times but hit .393/.545/.764 for a 225 wRC+) and 13.7 in ’21 (59 homers, .378/.512/.846, 218 wRC+). He also tallied 13.1 in 1920 and 12.9 in ’27, both of which outdo Bonds’ top two seasons (12.7 in 2002, 12.5 in ’01). Those Ruth years featured the AL (which didn’t have interleague play and obviously hadn’t integrated yet) scoring anywhere from 4.76 to 5.10 runs per game, though they were averaging only about 0.4 homers per game.
