When I read Yankees in the title, I was expecting it to be about DiDi’s injury. For those who don’t know yet, he left the WBC with a shoulder injury and is going back to Tampa for further testing.

It’s nothing, he might miss Opening Day but will be back in early April.

Does Cashman always talk into his wallet as pictured?

Sure, the Yankees really need their 500 SS prospects more than they need MLB SP, lol what a joke.

They obviously understand it’s a long shot to the playoffs, why would they waste developing young players on someone who might not be be under control when the young guys are in their prime?

Whet are you spewing?
Sounds like a bitter white sock fan is angry the Yanks won’t unload the farm for Q?

Velazquez has already thrown nearly 250 innings this year and hasn’t had much time to rest. I think he needs some kind of shutdown before throwing at Pawtucket and the Sox FO starts to look at how he can help them out and also stop using him in these ST games now.

Say no to Bonafacio

Bonifacio’s value started under Trader jack Mckeon and ended really fast after he left the helm of the marlins. Boni needs someone to constantly holler from the dugout at him. Tell him when to stop on his leads from 1b, when to run, when to get back.. When to look for certain pitches even.. The guy has amazing talent for not -1- clue how to use it on his own.

“Unlikely to trade” but people will still write about the package they think the Yankees will give up

I think this year especially it might be a good thing to rotate the relief pitchers up and down after Chapman, Betances, Clippard,and Warren. I think Montgomery could be a sleeper, he has a little Pettite in him. It might even be a good idea to rotate the 4 and 5 starters to show AL East teams a different look.
