flexing his power just because it can. Tosses Gardner without even looking in the dugout to see who was yelling - name Chris Siegel - total BS - not consistent strike zone & Coaches & Boone were yelling at him. Never looked at dugout when he ejected Brett this should get him a high grade for tonight's game = doing everything to favor the Jays. Guess Judge will not the night offby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

Gley's results all came back negative - Estrada was called up but not activated as a precaution & will be sent back to Scranton .by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Chance Adams has been called up probably replacing Tarpley. Thairo Estrada is being rumored as being called to Baltimore on TMK - will probably have to wait for BP show for more info. Shot in the dark precaution as they await test results on Gley who is in NY or they already know them and he'll be DL'd before the game.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
QuoteHitman23 Lets win another Opener start!! but at what expense???? as we await word on Gley - he was taken out of the game with a recurrence of the core problem & heading back to NY for further tests. A stint on the DL wasn't ruled out in the manager's PC following the game. IF he does go on the 10-day, please don't anyone speculate on Frazier coming up-he is not an IFer. Tarpley wasby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
feel the same - even when they're whining about the Yankees - the next-man-up that has succeeded so far this year is a tribute the Cash & Co. building the farm system & picking up pieces - rebuilding on the fly and not over 5 years .by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Quoteunclekevin QuoteHitman23 Any of them calling for Cora's head? A few has, Some say he was lucky last year Around here they're just not saying anythingby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
While Tanaka should be taken out after he completes twice through the lineup or when he gives up consecutive hard-hit balls, we are in the midst of a 17 games in 15 days schedule which includes 2 DHers. That's havoc on any player but murder for pitching staff. With a short pen, Masa was left in longer than he should have been. he's the first to admit that he should have made better pitches thoughby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
their local fans have been so quiet this weekend - last weekend so noisyby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Let's think back before criticizing the roster moves: DJ was signed as an IF utility player to give Miguel, Gleyber, & Luke a game off during the week. Miggy went down with TJ surgery; Tulo was to play short with Gleyber at 2nd then DJ would play 2nd when Tulo got games off & GLey was at short. Tulo went down so Gley became primary SS with DJ playing more 2nd. Gio came up to play 3rd - buby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
not going to argue about Stanton - but if you're talking about someone wasting payroll although insurance reimburses the Yankees - remember the guy out in Arizona who was supposed to report to ST on March 17th & hasn't been in camp for over 2 complete seasonsby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
copy & paste explains it best: The New York Yankees placed outfielder Aaron Hicks on the 10-day injury list on Sunday. Hicks left Saturday's game against the Boston Red Sox when he hurt his elbow while making a throw to the infield. He was diagnosed with a right flexor strain. Now let's see who got called upby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
still waiting word - nothing being reported on YES. Not sure what time the MRI was scheduled -by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
After taking game 1 behind Domingo Germain's solid seven innings performance & DJ's 2 home runs. In the process Edwin Encarnacion was hit by a pitch in the 8th inning - CT showed a fracture and placed him on the 10-day IL. Ream will a week or so to re-evaluate the healing. 9-2 win in the game Sale started. Mike Ford was called up from Scranton & was on the bench during the second game.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
they're waiting a week or so to re-evaluate the wrist. so far no surgery . Game 2 - Hicks is having an MRI Sunday on his elbow after making a throw to third. Boone won't speculate but could be another member for M A S H unit.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
had a feeling when it happened but it took a CT for diagnosis. Mike Ford coming in from Scrantonby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
Germain gave the Yankees what they needed & the offense came through - DJ had two out of the park; 9-2 win over the Sux in game 1.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com

hope everyone got to listen to comments & insight on TMK this afternoon. He makes himself available to the media - reinforces our reasons for having his back. He reveals what he can - obviously dealings & some information is privileged. - His mentor was Gene Michael who was a baseball genius - only trade chips for players that can make a difference not a maybe he can help.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
J Happ is on paternity leave - someone going to be a Daddy, gone are the days when wives give birth while her hubby is with the team. Steven Tarpley was recalled from S/WB. Brett Gardner has been activated & Tyler Wade sent back to S/WB.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
we got some of that insight in Building of an Empire. Even in the last 20-30 years baseball has changed in many ways, the changes continue each year (might bot like them all.) Cash had the foresight to think ahead & be ready. But in Yankee history, that's nothing new. Casey Stengel did with it with the platoon system & the way he staggered Whitey Ford's schedule to pitch against hardestby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
I think Diana answered that in an interview how happy Thurman was playing for the Yankees - part of the reason he took up flying. He took pride in playing for the New York Yankees and George Steinbrenner. Pretty sure he would have retired a Yankee & gone to HOF.by toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
I think Thurman would have made a difference from '79 -the mid 80s - he was an impact, motivational/inspirational type player. I still have his picture on my living room wall dedicated to Yankee legendsby toga - TheYankeesBoard.com
besides we've seen NL pitchers hit a brick wall pitching in the AL East - takes strong mettle to stand up to the Bronx faithful & succeed how many did we see fail. Remember George signing them to long term contracts even after their prime - the albatross contracts that hung on - we're still paying for Ellsbury (mostly repaid via insurance since he hasn't played in years).
