Jesus Gone, The God Injured, No Church In The Wild: NY Yankees '12 Season Thread

[Mantle Drunk]

So brehs what do you want to see from the postseason roster? Two things I don't want to see are Andruw Jones or Brett Gardner on the roster. Why have Gardner to be a pinch runner when he can't steal for defensive purposes dikkerson fills that need better then Gardner on both baserunning and fielding. Also Nova should not be on the roster but I dont expect him or Jones to make it.

we can question Gardner's baserunning skills but his fielding is way better than that of dikkerson. Gardner has a cannon of an arm and runs great routes in LF.

Ok he's not a better fielder but he can handle himself just fine in the field and as far as i'm concerned he's a better baserunner. A cannon I wouldnt go that far but yeah he is a good fielder.

That's 23. Who gets the remaining spots?

 

[Grifter]

Gardner's arm is better mostly cause he keeps running after making catch while throwing.

Yeah he gets to the ball quick and he gets it out of his hands quick but when I think cannon I think Mondesi, Suzuki, and Vlad etc,. those are cannons.

Rapada and Gardner get the last 2 spots. I think they hold Nova off the ALDS roster.

 

[Mantle Drunk]

Yeah I would count Rapada as pretty much a lock and I assume Gardner will make it but I would prefer dikkerson.

Gardner better not dikkerson is a safer pick gardy hasn't done shyt

Gardner better not dikkerson is a safer pick gardy hasn't done shyt

the logic is "if Gardner's actually able to hit and field now, why not use him?"

 

[g-ice]

Aight I exaggerated a bit with Gardner having a cannon. At the end of the day though, Gardner is still better as a defender than dikkerson.

 

[The War Report]

Because he hasn't done shyt the whole season?

 

[Street Knowledge]

I'm happy for Ichiro. He been on trash Mariner teams for like 10 years. He deserves to play in the Playoffs again

 

[23Barrettcity]

Has he shown you he could do that ?? I guess he did do good last playoffs

I'm pretty sure Girardi already said he won't be getting any AB's and his baserunning is atrocious.
