Soto or Nowhere: The Official 2024 New York Yankees Off-Season Thread

[IGSaint12]

I don't understand why they traded for JD before giving Ben Rice a decent look at 1st base. Now you have this awkward situation. I feel bad for him and his family.

As for the rest of the yankees outside of Judge Soto and sometimes Volpe, I don't have faith in anyone in this lineup to get consistent hits in the playoffs

Forget the playoffs, outside the first 3 hitters, nobody has an average above .245 or an OBP above .307 right now. They’re struggling against bad pitching.

Gleyber out the lineup

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

A castoff from the A’s is hitting cleanup . Also I would say it’s great that Torres is out of the lineup but he’s being replaced by a guy who excluding those 4 games vs Houston to open the year has a .214 batting average and roughly a .255 OBP with 37 hits and 3 homers with 18 RBI’s in the 57 games he’s played since . He’s even worse than Torres

Why would any team even pitch to Soto or Judge

 

[NYChase718]

Gil got like a 10 era last 3 or 4 games

 

[Nero Christ]

Starting pitching now starting to fall apart on top of the bullpen being trash

 

[g-ice]

No words for this crash out

 

[Mike809]

That series against the Dodgers broke our pitchers.

Its come down to … Maybe the orioles will lose again

I guess they are losing at the right time then.

Ya didn't wanna listen to me when I said Gil is wearing down, and should be moved to the pen

 

[NYChase718]

These jerseys judge look like he jumped in a pool

It really did turn out to be this years 2022 series vs Houston . The whole team outside of 2-3 guys has collapsed since then. 8-11 over the last 19 games and 3-9 over the last 12 if this score holds.

lol at Michael Kay complaining about SNY calling the Mets broadcast the best booth in baseball. What a sensitive prick
