2023 Regular Season Thread.

I like your idea but aren't Rortvedt and Wells both LH hitting catchers? I mean I guess that's not the end of the world given the dearth of LHH in the lineup but just seems a bit odd.

Right, I think with this roster, barring a huge and unexpected makeover this offseason, I think always having a LHH at C would be a plus.

The huge white spaces are calming.

and in this uncertain age, perhaps it is a blessing.

When does Krook get another shot? Seems replacements haven't pitched that well.

For the life of me I don't get this. Yes, he spit the bit on like 3 of 4 appearances. So what, when you look at the situation this team is in and the arms that are now getting opportunities. Even if he amounts to nothing, what's the opportunity cost?

My whole page is crazy...I have a big space between posts and i can't quote or set it up that the page opens to the most resent post? ODD...

yes - why in tarnation was he gushing over the latest dumpster dive pick up?

I guess Kay being Kay.

Yes. Assuming the C can actually hit the ball.

[HelloNewman]

the huge question is who should start game 2 of the playoffs? Montas or ?

Certainly not Montgomery. He wasn't going to start a playoff game anyway.

[Bub]

Montas threw 1 inning today for SWB. 1 run, 1 hit, 1 walk, 17 pitches. He’s ready to go.

By February.

Hopefully for one of the other 29 MLB teams.

Sorry about the Jets, Mike. Dallas looks mighty at this point, so the Jets might rise again against other teams. Montas, you're right, won't, at least not with our team. It's sometimes hard for me to stomach Hicks and Donaldson (so far, anyway) succeeding with their Yankee-funded teams going to the playoffs. I guess we just have to rationalize that they'd still be in the doldrums playing for the Cashman Yankees. Even Bader, who isn't doing that well with the Reds (so far), might make it to playoffs-ville.

Per Katie Sharp: Entering today, the Yankees had been hitless in 48.8% of innings this season. That's the highest rate in MLB.

But … but … but … batting average doesn’t count right?

It's not a bug, it's a feature. They're 7th in MLB in home runs so all is well in Cashmanland.

29th in BA
26th in OBP
23rd in runs scored

They don't get on base either.

They only love solo HR.

Yankees are tied for 6th in MLB in walks so poor BA is the primary source of their OBP problems.
