No

I’d think you could give Adley a day off tomorrow and let Kjerstad DH.

What options? Means is added and Ramirez is DFA. The question will be what to do when Bradish is added. I’d DFA Baumann, but Elias is annoyingly attached to him. Also, I wouldn’t mess with the rotation for Means. Put him in the bullpen. For Bradish, put Suarez in the bullpen.

23 walks in 21.1 IP. Holy cow better teach this guy some control.

The counting stats are fun so far with this group. 6 guys on pace for 100+ RBI. Gunnar on pace for 138. 8 guys on pace for 24+ HR. Gunnar on pace for 60. Gunnar is also on pace for 150 runs scored.

Best from the Yankees perspective.

He obviously knew Means and Bradish weren’t going to be available to start the season and Wells and Irvin would have to start. Completely inexcusable to not do something to stabilize the bullpen which was already downgraded by going from Felix to Kimbrel.

Good grief, lose a series to Oakland and everyone loses their damn minds. I’m surprised there weren’t accusations of Kimbrel having money on Oakland. What this series does is highlight Elias’s refusal to staff the bullpen in the offseason. He obviously knew Irvin and Wells would he needed in the rotation, but made no effort to bring in anyone beyond Kimbrel. Now we have to trade assets in July for something that could’ve been had for money in the offseason.

Yeah just like he said not Burnes….

Seems risky for Oakland to not trade him. He’s gotta be at height of his value around the deadline. Not a FA until 2030, extremely cost controlled, and pumping 100+ consistently. I’d be afraid his elbow would fall off before I could trade him. Not gonna be useful to Oakland anytime soon.

Fool of a troll

So we can really overpay in a couple of months.

Delete this. Fool hardy nonsense tempting the baseball gods.

How is it idiotic to try and steal 2B to be the tying run? Especially with a pitcher who doesn’t hold runners and a fast runner at 1B.
