Apparently outfield fundamentals were not covered in spring training this year.. 

Suarez picked a bad time for the bloom to fall off the rose.

Can't get beat around by the A's,  just can't t of you want to be a starter on a pennent winning caliber team.

The whole Yankees series they better intentionally walk Judge and Soto every at bat. I can only imagine how many HRs they will hit against us if we do not. And I do not want to hear Judge complain again about how many more he would have gotten if we had not moved the wall back.

Judge is awful right now.

Suarez regressing to his mean .. he is just awful today and this game will be soon out of reach leaving him in from here

I'm excited to see what he can do with the extra juice in shorter stints, but if the baseball gods are kind to us this should probably be his last start even if player development has helped him find a new level as an effective MLB pitcher.

Judge has not been the good this year.

Judge gets to hit 275 ft opposite field home runs at his home park.  He should stop complaining.

    • the question isn’t about being able to make the offers, it’s about being awarded compensatory picks for more than one.
    • I don’t consider a 4 o’clock game a night game. He also caught Wednesday night and Thursday day this week. Moral of the story is McCann will start 4 games in 7 days because he is Burnes preferred catcher.
    • It is absolutely possible. In 2022, the Mets gave a QO to Bassitt, Nikki, and DeGrom. The Red Sox gave a QO to Boegarts and Eovaldi. The Yankees gave a QO to Judge and Rizzo. The Dodgers gave a QO to Turner and Anderson. I know that it seems to be a foregone conclusion that Santander will not be on the team after this season, and while I generally agree that it is more probable than not that he will not be re-signed, I do think there is a non-zero chance that he will be retained. I think he is the most likely of Mullins, Hays, and himself to be retained, even if it is a small chance. The team has told us how they feel about his bat because he plays essentially everyday, and I have heard Kostka say that they value his clubhouse presence.
    • Santander won’t get a QO, and if he did, he would accept. His defense is declining and we have too many capable youngsters who should replace him effectively. But to your question, I don’t know if there’s a limit, but I doubt it.
    • O's will probably have to wait till July for a trade because there are so many more buyers than sellers.  I think teams like the Blue Jays, Rays Tigers and Mets are likely to be sellers but they are still in the race although not very good teams as constituted. 
    • No Scott. He’s way too undependable. We need someone who WON’T enter a game and walk folks like he’s promoting a healthy lifestyle. He’s been a lot bette4 this season, but he’s too undependable, and we already have too many of those. No Flaherty either. That’s like taking your GF back after she cheated on you.
    • The team's continued success has really put Elias on the spot IMO and I don't see a Flaherty type as an option anymore.  My money is on a sensible trade that comes at a price high enough that most of us here, including myself, won't like, but a premium comes with having bad luck and that's where the O's are at the moment.
