So, does anyone think the Yankees will make a move over the break to get a 1Bman?
who the hells batting now?
Melk has been in such an awful funk, an RBI would really help him out.
Damon reaches on an E-6. At least he'll get reacquainted with Pena!

I'd rather see them get another starting pitcher.But that's just me.

This Kotchman guy doesn't look too bad.
Gee whiz, at least give Derek a chance to pad his stats, bring in Cairo in the 8th.
get 'em in Melky get 'em in
So, does anyone think the Yankees will make a move over the break to get a 1Bman?No, because it wouldn't make a difference. (And because they don't want to give up anyone who might qualify as a prospect.)
Only thing they need now is for everyone to perform up to their ability, every single day they play.

Oh, the division, of course ... Aim high. ;)
seriously, i prefer to aim for that and hopefully achieve it too. it's hard to imagine jumping over 5(?) teams. i think we have 8 games against the tigers and 6 against the sox. hopefully, if we miss the mark (division champ), we take the wildcard.
again, i'm only addressing people who think/hope/can still believe we make the playoffs this year.

We could have used a couple of these runs yesterday.

DFA him? :eek:
Pinch hit, two RBI double!
(I HOPE Jeter was just taken out as a precaution!)
And while I'm typing, A-Rod tries for Number 31, but it stays in the park. TWELVE zip Yankees, after seven.

Starters are expenses in terms of salary and what you may need to give up, so I think they'll just ride it out with what they got and hope Hughes comes back to help them.

Proctor???? :eek:
Don't burn out our most reliable set-up man!
Joe has made a very foolish decision.

They were saying earlier that Hughes is probably going to be back in 2-3 weeks. I don't know if they'll go after a 1B. I'm afraid the other teams are going to be asking for our top prospects and I don't think that an upgrade at 1B at this point justifies giving up top or even near top level prospects.

Myers could have gone another inning. Edwar could have been given another shot at his old team. But no, it's the law, Proctor must pitch!

2 outs.
THe Yankees have 3 bench players - Thompson, Cairo and Nieves.... that is it. You have to have someone available.Yeah, I guess since Cairo is the only spare infielder/second backup catcher, he's the only one who could substitute for an infielder OR the catcher.
Still doesn't explain why Proctor is pitching, though.

Probably not... but what would a Ty Wigginton cost?
Quite a bit, he is a verstaile, cheap, young player who is hitting very well.

Probably not too much, but I just don't think he'd be worth whatever he would cost. I don't think that Ty Wigginton is going to make the difference between this team making the playoffs and not making the playoffs. He's not a very good hitter at all for a 1B. Okay, but not good. He has some power, but he doesn't get on base much at all.

He is off to a very good start. He's got more HRs than Manny, Wells or Ordonez.

The only thing I'm sweating when we're beating the Angels 12-0 is the fact that Jeter left the game after it looked like he might have been hurt. I'm really not sweating anything Joe does today. I'm just happy to be winning a nice, relaxing game. :)

You're probably right. Still, I'd like to see them go the extra mile and get a decent arm, even if it's a rental, to help out with what lies ahead. Money's never been an issue with this team (assuming George is still calling the shots).

Bad KT.
Soriambi
07-08-07, 03:04 PM
He is off to a very good start. He's got more HRs than Manny, Wells or Ordonez.
More HRs, yes, but:
Wigginton: .268/.316/.439/.755 (96 OPS+)
Ramirez: .285/.387/.467/.854 (123 OPS+)
Ordonez: .367/.446/.604/1.050 (177 OPS+)
Wells is having a terrible year, and he's only a little bit better than Wigginton so far, but the difference is that Ramirez, Ordonez, and Wells all have track records that indicate that they're very good players. Wigginton has a track record that indicates that he is, like I said, a guy with some power who doesn't get on base a lot at all.
Lets go YANKEES!!!!

Wait, I thought Tabata was in the futures game?
only just got in. why was wang pulled after 88 pitches?The Yankees were leading by twelve runs, it's a hot day, and he has a bad problem with a split nail/blisters.
Soriambi
07-08-07, 03:04 PM
No real reason
He has some sort of issue with his finger, actually, which caused some to speculate that he would be pulled after the first, but he toughed it out and pitched very well.
CptCrunch
07-08-07, 03:05 PM

Myers might be tired from having already pitched today.

i'd have thought with the break coming up, wang would have gone deeper.
YanksFan1992
07-08-07, 03:05 PM
Villone is in
Nieves playing first ... Posada still behind the plate!
Villone pitching. I wanted Edwar!
More HRs, yes, but:

Ramirez: .285/.387/.467/.854 (123 OPS+)

Wigginton has a track record that indicates that he is, like I said, a guy with some power who doesn't get on base a lot at all.
True, but he can play 4 positions is earning only a few hundred grand. A good investment, probably why TB won't let him go easily.

I'm not saying he's the worst player in the world or anything. He has decent value, but I think that the fact that he's going to be 30 in a few months, might mean that the Yanks could get him for a few quality prospects, but not necessarily any of their A level prospects. I was just saying that I don't think they should even do that to get a guy like him at this point.
