And with all these teams giving there rookies a shot when do we start seeing one of our own.
 
I once heard Jeter state that when he came up with the Yankees if you did not do your job they would get rid of you. The Yankees need to reinstate that policy.

06.22... Yankees pitching prospect Luis Severino scattered four hits over 7 2/3 shutout innings Sunday in a win for Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Spin: He's won his last three starts. The right-hander is quickly outgrowing Triple-A. Severino is undefeated in five starts since his promotion last month, holding opponents to a .200 average over that span. The 21-year-old hasn't allowed more than two runs in a start since May 10 against New Hampshire.

Can they really not bring up this kid right after the allstar break. HE IS READY. Kid should move right into rotation with tanaka, nova, pineda and if girardi had some balls warren.

And yet sadly mel considering how this team does things, this kid may end up getting his first start with another team.

That would be a crime if that happens rick even for cashman.
 
Next year hal either needs to trade beltran or write beltran a check so judge is our everyday right fielder and start the next young core along with severino. And by the way with all the college kids we just drafted and signed nobody is able to go to trenton and all assigned to staten island by the yanks. Why our prospects take forever to get here

If Cashman continues trading prospects for
overpaid veterans, Yankee fans need to stay
away from the Bronx. Can you see Cashman
on the phones urging corporate people and
tourists to fill those seats behind home plate?LOL
Too sad.LOL

Maybe when Beltran, Tex and Drew are gone.
Yanks have promoted a few youngsters.
I do tend to lean towards putting young players on the fast track and it's been no secret that "nowadays" there does seem to be more and more 22-24 year olds breaking in with their ML clubs.

22-24 years old is the new 25-26 year old for rooks and kids who are "ready" and the Yanks have been behind the curve in recent years but I think they've caught up reasonably fast. We should see a couple next year with Tex, Drew and Beltran on his last legs and last contract year.....The Yanks are still lacking in bringing along top flight poised young SP, especially LH SP.

Heathcottt, Williams, Judge, Refsnyder and next year Jagielo, Cave -imo- and maybe Bird (he isn't exactly lighting up AA) are ready to step in and hold their own as they grow at the ML level...but two of them seem to be fragile- Heathcottt and Williams.

If the Yanks were bringing along GOOD YOUNG SP they would be in great shape.

Lol, I know it's only a dream but - if the Yanks had Harvey and/or deGrom in the rotation, they would probably be in 1st by 5 or 6 games with the way this Yankee team has been scoring for most of the season.

Just a dream. Felt good for a moment.
 
...^^^among others, I think they're gonna really regret the Headley contract to before it's over...and they still have another year of Beltran too.
 
That headily contract is a real head shaker as the kid jaggielo (I know i butchered it) should be ready next year or year after. Yep, I'm sure they were terrified they couldn't replace headway's offense and defense. ROTFLMAO
 
A-Rod = $20M in 2016 & $20M in 2017

Sabathia = $25M in 2016 & $25M 2017 vesting option ($5M

Beltran = $15 M in 2016

Teixeira = $22.5M in 2016

Headley = $13M each in 2016, 17 & 18

Ellsbury = $21M each in 2016, 17, 18, 19, 20

Tanaka = $22M each in 2016, 17, 18, 19 & $23M in 2020

I'll cut the Yanks slack on this one...Headley is/was a known DECENT quantity and could be looked upon as a place holder for two years (minimum) until, or if/when Jagielo was ready....and I don't think his 2015 error issue was something which was suspected or expected...,Headley is still, imo, not a bad guy to have at 3b, his errors are NOT the reason the Yanks are currently not rolling along in first place....imo.
 
...would have been better off with Prado at 3B...less years, less dollars. ARod too, as it turns out.

...and no one is blaming Headley for anything...not sure where that came from...that's not what this is about...not at all.

OH SHIT! you brought up Prado.
 
...yup, sure did...Prado/ARod at 3B/1B/2B/DH would have been better.

Calm down, I was responding to mrmel29's reply (#19), regarding HEADLEY and Jagielo.
Rick...are you listening?.....reading?.....wow, you sure jump in quick when you see a joint opportunity to attack me.
It's okay, I understand, I now know how "it" is. Lol.
Make sure you re-read my reply to mrmel29 so you know where I was coming from.

Okay, glad I nipped this one in the bud.

Jeez

Yeah there you go flattering yourself again, I live to attack you, Please, I'm as cool as the other side of the pillow.

Okay, NOW! consider things nipped.
 
Headley 16 Errors, a .914 Fldg Pctg.............sick.....

IF Headley were to continue on this horrid error streak of 015, and continue to screw up fielding, one would have to go back to the Dead Ball Era, to find a 3rd baseman with as worse a Fldg Pctg.
 
At the rate he's going he'll end up with over 30 errors. And to think, this guy won a gold glove in 2012.
