Winter is over, the hot stove is off. Spring training games are finished, now the season begins. Over the next 162 games the ten best teams will go on to the playoffs. This is the time when producing when it counts matters most and over the next 162 games the best players in the game will go to the playoffs. Wins and winning is all that matters and only wins and winning will get the best players and the best teams to the playoffs.
The NEW YORK YANKEES completed a banner off season obtaining several players who will play for the team to win and who know that winning as a team and doing all the little things that can help the team win is what matters most in the end. Paxton, Happ, Britton, Tulowitzki, Lemahieu, Voit, and others know that only wins, and not individual stats, are what gets a team to the playoffs. The YANKEE hierarchy was brilliant by not signing either Manny Machado or Bryce Harper to ten and thirteen year contracts for the amount of money each is getting that neither player is worth, and would have crippled the YANKEES for the decade ahead. Look for the YANKEES to win more World Series than the Padres and Phillies combined over the next decade.
With the blossoming of the YANKEES own core of youngsters who have bloomed and are now growing in the major leagues at the nucleus of this 2019 team, the YANKEES are set to recapture the division title in the American League East. The YANKEES will start this season with a handful of key players on the disabled list (DL), however the YANKEES as every other team will have to play the hand they are dealt and overcome obstacles put in front of them. Yes, the YANKEES can and the YANKEES will.
What is most promising is the future ahead. The YANKEES have been able to obtain many WIN METHOD youngsters with a bright future and an unlimited ceiling. Keep an eye out for Estevan Florial who has the tools to be the YANKEE center fielder of the future. There are also several starting pitchers in the minors that will step forward to be major league impact starters for the YANKEES.
Thank you, to all the readers and posters of the WIN METHOD blog. You all have contributed to this blog surpassing 548 million views and you all have made this baseball blog the best in the world.
The season starts in a couple of days and a great season it will be for the YANKEES. Thank you all again for you support, your comments, and your opinions. All of which are posted with intelligence and wisdom far beyond any other site, blog, or forum in existence. LETS GO YANKEES.
Nice WIN METHOD. I was looking for you post to start the season.
ReplyDeleteWIN METHOD, this is going to be a season to remember. Love ya,
ReplyDeleteLong term high collar contracts are a deterrent to the building of a team from within. Long term contract block young players.
ReplyDeleteNo doubt about it, wins are the only stat that matters.
ReplyDeleteOn to the World Series. Lets win it all.
ReplyDeleteEverything WIN METHOD said in his blog post is true. Facts kill the stat frauds.
ReplyDeleteThink positive, be positive, do positive, and positive things will happen. Yes we can.
ReplyDeleteAndujar will help lead the Yankees to greater success over the next ten years than Machado helps the Padres.
ReplyDeleteThe Yankees win the WS this season.
ReplyDeleteWinning baseball is played by the players who produce at the most important times of each game the most often to allow their team to win. Nothing else matters.
ReplyDeleteOur healthy pitchers need to step up to start this season and with the help of the best lineup in baseball get the Yankees off to a fast start and build a lead that they never relinquish.
ReplyDeleteCashman kept the spending under control and this team is better off for it. Looking forward to a big season.
ReplyDeleteWell done WIN METHOD, well done.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great blog and place to come to with positive vibes.
ReplyDeleteLets go Yankees.
ReplyDeleteLet go Yankees.
ReplyDeleteGoing to Saturdays game. Paxton should be the starter.
ReplyDeleteHere comes the Judge helping the Yankees to the World Series. And then there is me, rooting the Yankees to the World Series.
ReplyDeleteHerecomestheJudge, nicely done. Yes we will.
ReplyDelete37 hours to go.
ReplyDeletePossible Yankee lineup for opener.
ReplyDelete1) Brett Gardner, CF
2) Aaron Judge, RF
3) Giancarlo Stanton, LF
4) Gary Sánchez, C
5) Miguel Andújar, 3B
6) Luke Voit, DH
7) Greg Bird, 1B
8) Troy Tulowitzki, SS
9) Gleyber Torres, 2B
I would drop Sanchez to the 8 spot and move the others all up one.
DeleteWhen WIN METHOD started his blog, he said there would be not ads, no selling, just clean pages talking about baseball. Never any foul language. No tracking of fans. All is still true and the WIN METHOD is the best there is.
ReplyDeleteI am always stunned when I read stat fraud posters still whining how the Yankees should have signed Machado because they think Machado would have made the Yankees a better team for years. On the other hand I read WIN METHOD posters thanking WIN METHOD, Hal Steinbrenner and Brian Cashman for not signing Machado, who is a cancer and would have hurt the Yankees for a decade.
ReplyDeleteI guess this is why the WIN METHOD blog has more readers and posters than any baseball site in the world.
Tanaka, Paxton, Happ have been named for the Orioles series at the Stadium.
ReplyDeleteSteve, we are stunned because we know baseball and all the stat frauds know are fake stats and what they are told by the talking heads.
ReplyDeleteAs we start the season wins are what will determine our faith. Win or split every series and the playoffs are guaranteed.
ReplyDeleteIt would be a good start to sweep the O's.
ReplyDeleteThe WIN METHOD is unquestionably the best NY Yankee/baseball blog/forum/site in existence. The WIN METHOD has the most posters, readers, and intelligent conversation than any other similar site in the world. The WIN METHOD has never banned a poster since its inception over ten years ago. No signup is required, just post your baseball opinions and views with no foul language.
ReplyDelete2019 the year of the YANKEES.
ReplyDeletejohnsondc....I second your comment whole heartedly. Great post.
ReplyDeleteTanaka, Paxton, Happ the starters for the first series, German, Loaisiga, Cessa ready as needed, CC and Louie Louie recuperating, and the minors with arms blooming and growing paints a very optimistic picture for the Yankees.
ReplyDeleteOur players need to produce when it counts, pitchers, position players, bench players. Play as a team, because no one or two players make a team. All players make a team and that could mean forty different guys over the course of the season. WINS are the goal.
ReplyDeleteAs Derek Jeter was for almost two decades, Aaron Judge is the poster boy for MLB. Character, charisma, integrity, ability.
ReplyDeleteThe Yankees are the best.
ReplyDeleteJust over 20 hours to opening pitch for the Yankee 2019 season tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThe talent is there for the Yankees. The powers in control have put a good team together. All the guys have to do is remember the goal is to win and not their own individual stats. Play to win will win the day and the game.
ReplyDeletejohnsondc, thank you for allowing me to use your wonderful post on the WIN METHOD blog page.
ReplyDeleteWIN METHOD, I was honored when you asked me if you could use it.
ReplyDeleteBest is, it is all true.
16 hours and Yankee baseball is back and the team starts its run to the playoffs. Lets go Yankees.
ReplyDeleteYes we can.
ReplyDeleteOPENING DAY: The Yankees open their season this afternoon at 1:00PM at Yankee Stadium against the Baltimore Orioles. Just five hours away we will "let's play ball".
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see the first of Boone's innovative lineups.
ReplyDeleteYankeeforever, it makes no difference what the order is, it will be a strong lineup. The determining factor to winning is if the players produce when it matters most.

ReplyDeleteAn extraordinary smart person with a brilliant mind can express an ignorant opinion borne by an ignorant thought.
ReplyDeleteJimmy Thames, wouldn't that apply to someone saying Manny Machado and Bryce Harper are "generational talents"?
ReplyDeleteA gorgeous day in the Bronx for a March opening day game. Lets go Yankees.
ReplyDeleteNice first inning. Voit three run home run.
ReplyDelete6-1 Yankees after 5.
ReplyDeleteWhat a pleasure watching today's game and not having to put up with the nonsense of Machado or Harper.
ReplyDeleteFinal - Yankees win 7-2.
ReplyDeleteThat's one game in the piggy bank.
ReplyDeleteGood all around game with many guys contributing as a team. Good starting pitching, good relief, and good hitting.
ReplyDeleteYankees have off day tomorrow and then conclude the Orioles series with 1PM games Saturday and Sunday weather permitting. Paxton and Happ listed starters.
ReplyDeleteHow long will the weather hold? When you win you want to keep playing.
ReplyDeleteBoth out first basemen hit home runs today.
ReplyDeleteOne game played and the stat frauds are already complaining and whining.
ReplyDeleteWe eat stat frauds for lunch and spit them out along with their fake stats and false premises.
ReplyDeleteI love this Yankee team. We as fans have much to look forward to this season.
ReplyDeleteA very pleasant start to the 2019 season for the Yankees. Just need to win games.
ReplyDeleteWeather permitting Yankees have five straight games starting tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteWIN METHOD keeps a low profile and I am sure his proprietary deal with George Steinbrenner and now Hal keeps all of what he does almost non-existent, but what WIN METHOD has done for the Yankees in enormous and down right wonderful.
ReplyDeleteJill Byrnes, I second that. WIN METHOD is the best in baseball at what he does. He was the innovator of the idea and worked decades refining the process.
ReplyDeletePaxton tomorrow in front of Yankee fans. A good first impression is the best impression.
ReplyDeleteOur first base combo is leading the team in home runs. Keep the lead guys.
ReplyDeleteThe Yankees are the best.
ReplyDeleteDoes Boone give us a different lineup tomorrow. Why not?
ReplyDeleteLets get another win today.
ReplyDeleteWho will Boone sit today? Does he stick with the same winning lineup?

It is almost at a point that it makes no difference what the Yankee lineup is or who is playing on any given day.
ReplyDeleteyankeeclipper, that is what determines the depth of a lineup. It still comes down to producing when it counts.
ReplyDeleteScoreless after three.
ReplyDeleteYankees really struggling through seven innings and trail 3-1.
ReplyDeleteYanks embarrassed by O's today, do everything wrong and fail when it matters consistently. End up losing 5-3.
ReplyDeleteA bunch of posters here were at today's game. What a downer for them.
ReplyDeleteO's force Yankees to swallow a heaping dose of reality today. You ain't the best unless you win.
ReplyDeleteFortunately the Yankees have 160 more games to produce when it matters most.
ReplyDeleteHapp tomorrow in rubber game if predicted rain stays away.
ReplyDeleteLets see if there will be a lineup shakeup tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThe stat frauds are panicking after two games.
ReplyDeleteLooks like tomorrows game may get played.
ReplyDeleteYesterday's game was a disappointment. When I go to a Yankee game they rarely lose. I mean maybe one in every ten games. I guess I've been lucky to go at the right times. I think today's game will get played. Likely some rain and maybe a little delay however.

ReplyDeleteIf you take an opponent for granted you give them a better chance at beating you. In other words, you are beating yourself.
ReplyDeleteStart of game in a rain delay.
ReplyDeleteStill raining, still waiting.
ReplyDeleteOver 2 hour delay and counting. It sure looks like they want to play the game today.
ReplyDeleteStarting pitchers warming up. There will be a game.
ReplyDeleteAfter three innings of futile when it counts hitting the Yankees score 3 runs in the fourth as Gardner works an 11 pitch walk with the bases loaded and 2 out and then Judge lines a 2 RBI single to right. Yankees down 4-3 after four.
ReplyDeleteYanks down 5-3 after 6.
ReplyDeleteYankees fail again and again leaving the bases loaded in the 8th. Trail 7-4. Underwhelming production when it mattered most and makes for losses.
ReplyDeleteYankees lose 7-5 leaving tying runs on base in ninth. They left double digit men on base the whole game.
ReplyDeleteGerman starts tonight against the Tigers in the Bronx.
ReplyDelete1-2 start to the season is pretty bad. Think positive, the rest of the season will be better.
ReplyDeleteThere is a hint the Yankees may use an opener tonight. An opener is still a fake stat fraud boondoggle. A team still has to get 27 outs and play nine innings. What inning a reliever pitches in is relatively meaningless. What inning does it matter when he gives up any runs or gives up none? Heaven help me, baseball is being corrupted by idiots.
ReplyDeleteNo it is not an April Fools Day joke. The Yankees and the sux are last and next to last in the AL East division after March.
ReplyDeleteCan you just imagine if George Steinbrenner and Billy Martin were in charge now of this Yankee team. Ah! the good old days of no pc garbage and you could speak what you believed without offending the snowflake garbage that exist today.
ReplyDeleteStanton on the 10 day DL with a left biceps strain. Frazier called up from AAA. I wonder what the record is for a team having players on the DL at the same time?
ReplyDeleteStanton out will change the lineup. And on another track, Romine needs to get into a game.

Tauchman starts for the DL'd Stanton. Andujar sitting today.
Clint Frazier is available.
ReplyDeleteAgain and again and again, you don't win unless your players produce when it count, pitchers, offense and defense. The names of players mean nothing, their salaries mean nothing. Producing when it counts determines who wins and not producing when it counts determines who loses.
ReplyDeleteBecause the admin of this ste is working, no quuestion very quickly it will be famous, due to its feature contents.
ReplyDeleteDare we even talk about sweeping the Tigers. One game at a time.
ReplyDeleteLets go Yankees, get us off the schneid.
ReplyDeleteAndujar placed on the DL also late today. Shoulder stiffness from diving into third base yesterday. It is altering his swing. Tyler Wade called up form AAA.
ReplyDeleteGerman leaves after five innings leading 3-1. Except for walks a very strong effort. Run he allowed was unearned.
ReplyDeleteFinal. Yankees win 3-1.
ReplyDeleteWinning play of the game when it mattered most was a defensive play by Judge making a diving catch with two on and no outs in 8th inning.
ReplyDeleteAndujar shoulder may be worse than first report. Has a small labrum tear. Will be re-evaluated in two weeks. Best case is shoulder responds to treatment and he continues the season. Worse is season ending surgery.
ReplyDeleteTanaka starts tonight for Yankees at 6:30. Half the team is on the DL.
ReplyDeleteOf the 40 man active roster the Yankees have 25% (10 players) on the disabled list (DL). Talk about obstacles and roadblocks. Think positive, keep your chin up, play the hand you are dealt, and overcome all setbacks. This will be a season for the ages as the Yankees march to the playoffs with fife and drum in hand.
ReplyDeleteWade was brought up for Andujar. We have the beef. Lets go Yankees.

If anyone wants to make themselves sick go read the last couple of pages on the nyyforum. Poster after poster bemoaning tonight's Yankee lineup, demeaning, demoralizing, and disgraceful. Every time you think they have reached the bottom of the barrel they find ways to go even lower. What utter ignorance.
ReplyDeleteAndujar over Machado.
ReplyDeleteOK guys. Take a deep breath, buckle up you belt, step up, you are in for a ride taking this team to the playoffs. Letsgo Yankees.
ReplyDeleteGood pitching and timely hitting wins most games. Nothing to it but to do it.
ReplyDeleteThe greatness of baseball over other sports is insurmountable. No clock, 162 game season, pitcher versus hitter and team versus team.
ReplyDeleteYankees lose 3-1 as Chapman gives up 2 in 9th for the loss.
ReplyDeleteYankees looked pretty bad tonight. Yankees got out-pitched.
ReplyDeleteRubber game at 4PM today with the Tigers. Loaisiga likely starter. If we lose today, we lose first two series of season and will be 2-4. A win means we split the first two series and are 3-3. Only one game difference but every game counts.
ReplyDeleteLes Melman, the Yankees didn't hit either.
ReplyDeleteThe sux have gotten off to a worse start than the Yankees. Good and bad streaks are most noticeable at the start of a season. The same record of lets say 2-8 or 8-2 gets hidden half way through the season. Don't worry, be happy, after 162 games the best teams and players will reach the playoffs.

Remember WIN METHOD fans, we will be tracking the season in ten game segments again this season. Every team will have good and bad segments. The best teams will have the most good segments.
ReplyDeleteLet go guys, score some runs with timely hitting when it counts.
ReplyDeleteIf the start of the 2019 tells you anything, it tells you spring training games don't mean anything, good or bad.
ReplyDeleteYanks lead 1-0 after three.
ReplyDeleteTulowitzki comes out of game after third inning with a left calf strain. On way to hospital to get checked out. UNBELIEVABLE!
ReplyDelete1-1 after 6.
ReplyDeleteYankee bats with another putrid game. Lose 2-1. Lose first two series of season.
ReplyDeleteYankees head to Baltimore tomorrow for a three game series thru the weekend with an off day Friday.
ReplyDeletePaxton starts tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteRight now and based only on these first six games, the Yankees will not break the single season home run record, but are on pace to set the single season strikeout record. That can all change in a blink of an eye or just a couple of games.
ReplyDelete3 PM game in Baltimore today. After a 2-4 home stand maybe a road trip will get the Yankees a better result.

Hoping it isn't so, but it looks as if Frazier will never be the answer.
Tulowitzki has been placed on the DL and is the 11th Yankee on the list. Thairo Estrada has been called up form AAA Scranton. 11 men out of 40 on the DL. And we will still win the division.
ReplyDeleteJust goes to show how much baseball is a team game. Yankees have been getting great pitching, but the offense isn't scoring. The combination of both with all players on the team contributing at the right times determines the winning team. Individuals are irrelevant because individuals do not win by themselves. Therefore the smart owners are seeing that paying vast salaries to individual players is detrimental to their team.
ReplyDeleteLets go Yankees.
ReplyDeleteYankees down 4-1 after five innings as Orioles continue to produce when it counts and the Yankees don't.
ReplyDeleteTorres 3 run HR breathes life into Yankees who take 5-4 lead after 7.
ReplyDeleteFinal, Yankees win 8-4. All 8 runs via 4 home runs.
ReplyDeleteOff day tomorrow. Next game Saturday 7PM at Camden Yards in Baltimore.
ReplyDeleteThe Yankees won their home opener with HRs, then had a day off, then went 1-4 in the next five games. Today they won the Oriole home opener with HRs, then have a day off. Hope they don't go 1-4 in the next five games again.
ReplyDeleteBuild on today's win Saturday. Happ scheduled starter. Bullpen well rested. Bats?????
ReplyDeletePaxton hung in there after a rough first inning. Hope Happ gets on track.
ReplyDeleteClarke Schmidt started the high A Tampa Tarpons first game of their season this afternoon. Pitched five innings, no runs, no hits, no walks, nine strikeouts. Clarke will move up to AA and AAA this season. WIN METHOD loved him and the Yankees took him as their number one pick in the draft knowing he wouldn't be available until this season at the earliest after undergoing TJ surgery.
ReplyDeleteMichael King who had a grand minor league season last year moving from A to AAA, and then had a forearm issue this spring is still recuperating and will get back to pitching pretty soon.
ReplyDeleteClint Frazier has lost almost all his value with his play this spring. He looks lost out there offensively and defensively. Hope he turns things around.
ReplyDeleteAn off day when so many are on the DL can't hurt. Just buys the team some time.
ReplyDeleteLets just win the next two games and move on from there.
ReplyDeleteNo team should ever not be scheduled on a Friday at anytime during the 162 game schedule. Poor planning and stupid decision. Happens a lot with MLB.
ReplyDeleteIf you think negative, you will get negative results. So think positive.
ReplyDeleteHapp is do for a good effort.
ReplyDeleteBack in action today. 7:00 PM start in Baltimore. Happ starting.
ReplyDeleteA week and a half into the season and the Yankees are two games up on the sux for the division title. Be Positive, see the light and not the darkness.
ReplyDeleteWhen you play a 162 game season to determine the best players and teams, you would be very foolish to grade teams on 10 games.
ReplyDeleteCommon sense and we all know the WIN METHOD is common sense. If you want ignorance, read the stat fraud sites.
Slowly over the course of the season we will get our DL players back, win the division, and go into the playoffs.

ReplyDeleteFrazier with 2 out 3 run HR in 8th for a 6-4 Yankees lead. Yes, our Clint Frazier when it mattered most.
ReplyDeleteFinal. Yankees win 6-4. It wasn't pretty, but it was a win and wins are what matter.
ReplyDeleteYankees go for series sweep at 1 PM with Domingo German listed to start the game in Baltimore.
ReplyDeleteAll six runs Yankees scored last night were on home runs. The men who get on base are still the key to wins and winning. The three home runs wouldn't have won the game by themselves, the men on base illustrate how everyone on the team can help the team win.
ReplyDeleteIt was nice to Frazier have a moment. Hope we can build on it.

ReplyDeleteFinal. Yankees win 15-3. Wish we could have saved some of those runs as we head to Houston tomorrow for a three game series.
ReplyDeleteHouston Astros for three games Mon, Tue, and Wed nights. A real test when we are hurting.
ReplyDeleteThe stat frauds must be ecstatic if they had several Yankees in their fantasy world of ignorant meaningless games. Hey, that's the world they live in.
ReplyDeleteI'll get right to the point and make this simple for everyone to understand.
ReplyDeleteAnalytics when used and relied upon in sports are used and relied upon by fools who do not know the mental aspect of sports and thus make fools of themselves. If every team uses and relies on analytics and analytics has all the answers then no team should ever lose. All teams win and lose and analytics has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH IT.
I've been here from the beginning of this blog. I know all you WIN METHOD fans know how the WIN METHOD works. This is for all you stat frauds. Think about what I am about to say, yes, I said think. All teams use analytics, so what makes some teams win and others lose? It is a WIN METHOD tenet, "common sense". Why don't high individual stat players dominate the playoffs and help their team to the playoffs all the time? Please don't blame their teammates. Teams win with the contributions from all the players on the team at any given time in any given game. It is not how much nor how many a player attains. What determines the best players and teams is WHEN they achieve. WHEN a pitcher gets the big out, when a fielder makes a big defensive play, when a batter gets the big hit. Analytics has no way of determining that accurately. Analysts try to, with made up formulas, so called late inning performance, how many and how much each player attains. It is all Barbara Streisand. Wins are achieved by the contribution of every player who plays for each team throughout the entire season. The group of players for each team determine how many wins the team achieves. The groups of guys who achieve the most wins for their team go to the playoffs and THEY are the best players in the game. Think people.
