[Mattingly23NY]

“Cashman is a genius in obtaining talent”...really?
2010 Obtained.....Lance Berkman, Kerry Wood, Austin Kearns, Justin Maxwell, Scottie Allen, Bartolo Colon,
Freddy Garcia, Andruw Jones, Eric Chavez.....most veteran role players with little impact.

2011 Obtained......Chris Dickerson, Michael Pineda, Vicente Campos, Scot Proctor, Hiroki Kuroda.....

2012 Obtained......Diego Moreno, Exicardo Capones, Chris Stewart, Ichiro Suzuki,
Casey McGehee, Kevin Youkilis, Travis Hafner......

2013 Obtained......Shawn Kelley, Vernon Wells, Reid Brignac, Alphonso Soriano,
Brendan Ryan, Dean Anna, Kyle Haynes.....

2014 Obtained......Miguel Sulbaran for Eduardo Nunez, Brandon McCarthy, Chase Headley,
Stephen Drew, Martin Prado, Esmil Rogers, Justin Wilson, Didi Gregorius, Nathan Eovaldi,
Garrett Jones, Domingo German, Johnny Barbato, David Carpenter, Chasen Shreve....

2015 Obtained......Gregorio Petit, Tony Renda, Dustin Ackley, Ronald Herrera, Aaron Hicks,
Starlin Castro, Chad Green, Luis Cessa, Aroldis Chapman, Tyler Olsen, Ronald Torreyes.....

2016 Obtained......Rashad Crawford, Billy McKinney, Adam Warren, Gleyber Torres,
Tyler Clippard, J.P.Feyereisen, Justus Sheffield, Clint Frazier, Ben Heller, Nick Green,
Erik Swanson, Dillon Tate, Tito Polo, Stephen Tarpley, Juan DePaula, Jin Orozco,
Albert Abreu, Jorge Guzman, Zack Littell, Yoiber Marquina...

Most of these obtained players were/are role players. Some made the parent club, some have been traded,
others have been released, still others remain in the minors.......Mr. Trashman is no genius, just your typical
baseball GM trying to find that rare gem among the crystalline. Bottom line: Yankees still searching for 28th
World Series title. BTW.....If you find a starting pitcher among these names, notify the player
development department.

[Mattingly23NY]

Come on Cage no more Manifestos.

Oh Lillie, that's a Short Novella & worth the Blood Sweat and Tears, well no tears...

 

[roywhite6]

Hey YF5545, are you seeing any rain yet from Hurricane Florence???

Unfortunate. I live in North Carolina.

 

[yankeesince59]

Well that was a nice 1st inning tease.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Bad gig, Andujar GIDP with 2 on none out. Stanton follows as we'd expect by striking out. Off to another flying start.

 

[roywhite6]

Nice research Lion.

 

[Lillie]

Shut up Flash and Leiter.

 

[roywhite6]

pitch count thru 1 - Gibson 21, JA 18.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

I think the walk u music for Stanton & Sanchez should be the old Steppenwolf Tune "Who Needs Ya"

 

[roywhite6]

What did Didi do?

 

[roywhite6]

reached on an error. Dam espn boxscore waits an hour before you know anything, lol.

 

[yankeesince59]

...goddamn Sanchez, wtf are you swinging at?..that ball was a foot off the plate.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

ML fkng B-TV.
Screwed out of anothet game.
Showed the 1st coupla pitches, then flipped to Wrigley, now St. Louey- WTF..??

If we're lucky out here, they might show a couple more
Yanx gm pitches, before the game is over...
I'm not holding my breath...

 

[yankeesince59]

...wow, Bird is slower than me running to 1B.

I'm joining you now, ML-FKNG-B-tv...

 

[roywhite6]

Well, for all our futility...we have raised Gibsons pitch count to 41 thru 2.0 IP

 

[roywhite6]

I'm joining you now, ML-FKNG-B-tv...

Martin Luther King?

 

[cagedlion]

Looks like they are playing their “normal” game........leaving runners stranded on the bases.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

...wow, Bird is slower than me running to 1B.

"""....

Is that with the Walker or without??

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Even Andujar & GT aren't hitting that is not good for this team. Credit to Boner, he found every possible dud he could put into this evenings lineup.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Next they will treat us to their second Vice- watching strike 3 go by without an offering???

 

[roywhite6]

wow. all those pitches...just to give up a hit.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

I was reading we probably won't see Judge till Boston. I get resting in the make sure he's 100% but I can't help a question this call.
It's impossible to trust a baboon with a boner...

 

[roywhite6]

JA definitely NOT sharp

 

[cagedlion]

Astudillo is not a hard name to say....Mr.Flaherty! And the kicker....Leiter says,
“Does he have a nickname?” LOL

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Martin Luther King?

Rodney Dangerfield posing as RFK

 

[Lillie]

Next they will treat us to their second Vice- watching strike 3 go by without an offering???

Come on Rob you are making my Head Spin.

 

[roywhite6]

be back shortly...real life calling

 

[cagedlion]

JA definitely NOT sharp

33 pitches so far with one out in 2nd inning. Nice catch by Cutch....runs long way for catch.
Now ...Gardner makes tumbling catch for 3rd out.
