Unless he moves to DH, he's getting traded to Detroit or Texas or some other penal island.revbob wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 9:25amYankees’ Gary Sanchez loses starting job as Kyle Higahsioka emerges

Technically, his contract expired and wasn't renewed. My memory is that there were doubts that he wasn't connecting with the young players.Inder wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 9:53amDidn't they fire Girardi for this?revbob wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 9:25amYankees’ Gary Sanchez loses starting job as Kyle Higahsioka emerges

Maybe they just wanted ice cream after a game (Girardi banned junk food from the locker room because, I dunno, no facial hair wasn't dick-ass enough).revbob wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 12:27pmThem young guys dont get their unis dirty they just want to do bat flips and not respect the game and its elders.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 10:15amTechnically, his contract expired and wasn't renewed.

Either way a gently used catcher/DH will be on the market soon.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 1:08pmMaybe they just wanted ice cream after a game (Girardi banned junk food from the locker room because, I dunno, no facial hair wasn't dick-ass enough).revbob wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 12:27pmThem young guys dont get their unis dirty they just want to do bat flips and not respect the game and its elders.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 10:15amTechnically, his contract expired and wasn't renewed.

I like the idea of making him a DH but I dont think he can handle the pressure. He's secondary market material. Which isn't a knock plenty of people have trouble with intense scrutiny.

Re: MLB 2021
The problem with DH, to me, is that longer term, the team has several good candidates for that position. And if you put Sanchez in at DH and he still flops, his value completely plummets. Trading him makes too much sense, tho Cashman has a habit of only doing trades in which the other side gets fleeced. Which is great—duh—when it works, but trading comparable value isn't a bad thing.revbob wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 1:50pmEither way a gently used catcher/DH will be on the market soon.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 1:08pmMaybe they just wanted ice cream after a game (Girardi banned junk food from the locker room because, I dunno, no facial hair wasn't dick-ass enough).revbob wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 12:27pmThem young guys dont get their unis dirty they just want to do bat flips and not respect the game and its elders.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑28 Apr 2021, 10:15amTechnically, his contract expired and wasn't renewed.

The MLB thread hasn't been the same without Ratty doing PR work for Cashman's genius.

Re: MLB 2021
Good enough to be worth watching. I'm still skeptical that the pitching is built for a full season.

Re: MLB 2021
Whatever my measured doubt about this season, the Bloom/Cora team at top gives me great confidence about the team going forward. The best guys since since Epstein/Francona.
