Hello WIN METHOD Yankee fans, the smartest baseball fans on the face of the earth. It has been a long time since I last blog posted. However, there have been comments within the blog from me. So here we go for 2021.
First, the Yankees will be in the playoffs again this season, but they also will play in the World Series. In talking with players, they are not happy with what they have achieved the past few seasons. They feel they have something to prove and want to do it now. Most of the players have undertaken a new or modified training program instituted by the training staff. Look for less injuries and less severe injuries this season. That will be a step forward and a plus for the team as a whole.
Second, Corey Kluber and Jameson Taillon both feel very optimistic with what each will contribute to the Yankees success this season. Both players believe their injuries are behind them. As of now, the Yankee starting rotation looks like it will have four men in the first four spots right now. Cole, Kluber, Taillon, and Montgomery. The fifth spot will be determined in March. The guys who do not make the fifth spot will either be sent to AAA Scranton or long relievers on the big team. Then the big guy Louie Louie Severino will make his return to the Bronx in June. The pitching staff looks solid and has many fall back arms to rely on. The bullpen remains solid and strong, also with several young arms looking to make an impact.
Third, the lineup will be solid again, more important, will be healthier. Runs will be put on the board. The biggest question mark will be at catcher. Catcher Gary Sanchez has been a black hole in the Yankee lineup recently, ala afraud in the past. Gary Sanchez is being mentored and talked to by coaches and trainers. Sanchez feels it is helping him, As the season starts, we will all see if it has. Sanchez himself is the only person who can really make it happen. It is up to him. A big WIN METHOD season from Sanchez would be a big help to the lineup and the team. If he does what he has been doing the last couple of seasons, Gary's days could be short lived.
As you all know I always read all posts by all of you who post here. Looking at the numbers of views recorded on the WIN METHOD blog there are also an enormous number of fans who read the blog consistently. You fans will take this blog, the number one Yankee baseball blog in the world over the one billion mark somewhere around June 1st this year. You are the people who take this blog in the direction you want it to go on a daily, weekly, monthly, or whatever time frame basis. This past year, we saw a very shortened baseball season, we saw a disgusting Chinese created virus, spread throughout the world by the most foul Chinese government, killing millions of people from all countries across the globe. We had a presidential election here in America. The election was the most corrupt election in the history of America stolen by the most corrupt politicians in America's history. We now have the most corrupt politicians in America's history running our country. They will do their best to destroy America. Hopefully, you the people will do whatever you need to do to stop the destruction.
It is now back to baseball and a great Yankee season. Thank all of you for reading and posting your views and opinions in this blog. You are the people who have made the WIN METHOD blog the best and greatest Yankee baseball blog, forum, or site in the world. We here are WIN METHOD will continue to have no signups, no ask for no personal information from you, no advertisements, and no bans of anyone. You, your views, and your opinions do not get canceled here. Unlike big tech, other baseball forums or sites which control you by banning or canceling you, here, that will never happen.
One more thing before I conclude. I would like to recognize the life and pay my respects to RUSH HUDSON LIMBAUGH III who passed away February 17th. Rush was the greatest radio and political commentator of all time. Rush's radio career spanned over thirty years. Rush's show was three hours a day, five days week, fifty-two weeks a year. Rush was right 99.8% of the time and one of the finest American patriots who believed in freedom and pursuit of happiness of every single American. Rest in peace, you will never be forgotten.
It is baseball time again. Lets look forward to a great season and as always LETS GO YANKEES.

WIN METHOD, I like the underline emphasis on the 'will play'.
Thank you WIN METHOD for giving us a Yankee baseball site where we can freely speak our opinions and frauds how ignorant we know they are. That is probably why this blog is visited by more people than any other.
Yes, we did get away from baseball. Points and opinions needed to be expressed.
Lets go Yankees.
WIN METHOD, thank you for your kind words for we posters getting off the baseball track. A lot of bad stuff is happening to our country right now.
Now....Lets go Yankees.
Glad to see your confidence in the Yankees this season WIN METHOD.
Get to the WS and win it. Go for the brass ring.
WIN METHOD is always so positive. What a pleasure.
I am so looking forward to this season.
The Yankees are so overdo to have a season where things go more right than wrong. Cashman has rebuilt the pitching staff. Tanaka and Paxton gone, Kluber and Taillon in. Have Cole and Monty. The final spot between Deivi, King, Schmidt, German keeping it warm for Louie Louie.
First game of spring, today at 1PM. MLBTV.
Nice thoughts WIN METHOD, stay well, love ya,
Depending on how the Yankees want to use German, as a starter or a one or two inning shutdown reliever will depend on his performance and development this spring.
The AAA team should have a fine pitching rotation also for the minor league fans.
okiened, AA should be solid also. The Yankees have a lot of strong young arms coming along.
King and Warren only major names pitching today. Could be only seven inning game based on stupid rules from Manfred and MLB for Chinese manufactured and distributed virus that is killing millions of people all over the world.
Let the training play out just as long as the Yanks stay away from injuries.

It looks like Tauchman in the lineup is getting a chance to make or break himself with the Yankees.
My gosh, where are Stanton and Gardner? Why isn't meatball catching? Urshela still on the mend? So many questions. So little answers. Yankee management doesn't know what they are doing. The training staff is incompetent.
/\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\ /\
Just an example of what you get at the fake fraudulent goofballs on the other Yankee sites.
Considering you would have Stanton and Urshela in the lineup and either Hicks or Gardner in center that is a solid lineup. So much depends on Sanchez. Will he be another season of 'black hole' or will we produce when it counts?
If WIN METHOD says the Yankees will play in the World Series, they will be in the World Series.
Meatball, three pitches, three strikes, no contact.
Final today, Blue Jays 6 Yankees 4. Seven inning game. Plus, Warren and Luetge each with one scoreless inning and each with two Ks. Minus, Sanchez 0-2 with a K and pop flyout.
Spring game 2 tomorrow in Tampa against the Tigers. One o'clock.
Both Cole and Taillon will pitch for Yankees tomorrow.
Cole starts tomorrow.
Very uplifting speech from President Trump yesterday at the CPAC conventional. An America first forward thinking agenda completely opposite of what the democrats are now doing in destroying America.

Two games, no injuries. So far so good.
Yankees get on the bus tomorrow to go to Sarasota and play the Orioles. Monty starting for Yankees.
It was only a spring training game, but when Sanchez hit the HR yesterday, he did not flip the bat nor look into the dugout for recognition of the "blast" he hit. Good signs??
No TV for Yanks/O's game today.
The democrats are ingenious, they have come up with one acronym to describe Joe Biden and their policies for America and the American people. Get ready for this one
MALADY Yes, MALADY and it translates to Make America Last Again Destroy You.
A malady, Joe Biden, the democrat party, and the democrat policy agenda.

Walt Belamy, that is a great post. Anyone can see what they do every day to hurt American people. Open border in the southwest, halting American energy independence, and their doomsday climate change garbage. Go back sixty years and according to the democrat lies the planet should have been destroyed six times over by now.
Walt Belamy, that is hilarious. So like the democrats. Hard to believe people believe what any dem says. I guess some people are happy bending over and grabbing their ankles.
Corrected reprint, sorry.
Walt, Laura, your posts made my day. We can't give up. The liberal democrats are a cancer, but we can overcome them.
Deivi is also supposed to pitch today.
Final. Yankees win 4-2. Seven inning game. Plus, Voit rbi, Frazier rbi, Ford 2 rbis. Deivi, Kriske, Otto, Lane each with a scoreless and hitless inning. Minus, Andujar 0-3.
The Yankee host the Blue Jays tomorrow night starting at 6:30PM. Corey Kluber is listed to start game for Yankees.
Three spring games so far and in each game the Yankee starter, King, Cole, and Montgomery each allowed a run or more in the first inning.
Biden has one heck of a MALADY. Brain dead.
observing the democrat MALADY party would be hard pressed to discover which democrat has the most MALADY's and which has the worst MALADY.
How much more are you paying for gas already?
So far after three games we have seen three of four named starters pitch, Cole, Taillon, and Monty. We have seen King and Deivi who are looking for the five spot pitch. Game four tonight and the fourth starter is going in Kluber. We have yet to see German. Tonight maybe?
How about a complete title of the present flunky cabal running this country presently.

Update on Yankee manager Aaron Boone......
TAMPA, Fla. -- Yankees manager Aaron Boone is taking an immediate medical leave of absence to receive a pacemaker, the club announced on Wednesday.
Surgery was expected to be performed on Wednesday at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Tampa.
“As many of you know, I underwent open-heart surgery in 2009, and I wanted everyone to understand where I’m at regarding the procedure that’s taking place today,” Boone said. “Over the last 6-8 weeks I’ve had mild symptoms of lightheadedness, low energy and shortness of breath.
“As a result, I underwent a series of tests and examinations in New York prior to the beginning of Spring Training, including multiple visits with a team of heart specialists. While the heart checkup came back normal, there were indications of a low heart rate which, after further consultations with doctors in Tampa, necessitates a pacemaker.
“My faith is strong, and my spirits are high. I’m in a great frame of mind because I know I’m in good hands with the doctors and medical staff here at St. Joseph’s Hospital. They are confident that today’s surgery will allow me to resume all of my usual professional and personal activities and afford me a positive long-term health prognosis without having to change anything about my way of life. I look forward to getting back to work in the next several days, but during my short-term absence, I have complete trust that our coaches, staff and players will continue their training and preparation at the same level as we’ve had and without any interruption.
“I also want to take this opportunity to remind all those dealing with heart issues to remain vigilant in your care and to reach out to your doctor should you have any symptoms of discomfort or trouble. Any issue involving the heart has the potential to be serious. Staying on top of your health is always the first and most important thing you can do for yourself and your family.”
In Boone’s absence, bench coach Carlos Mendoza is likely to assume managerial duties.
“The thoughts of the entire organization are with Aaron and his family as he undergoes this procedure and takes the time he needs to properly heal,” said Yankees managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner. “Aaron leads our players, coaches and staff with a rare combination of work ethic, intelligence and a genuine concern for others. Our only priority at this time is Aaron’s health and well-being, and we will support him in every way throughout his recovery.”
Kluber, 2 innings, 6 up 6 down, 3 K's 22 pitches.
Final, Yankees win 4-1. Seven inning game. Plus, Kluber two perfect innings. Sanchez HR, Chirinos HR, Dietrich HR. Minus, Cessa only Yankee pitcher to allow a run.
Yankees travel to Clearwater FL to play the Phillies at 1PM. Deivi starting for Yanks.

Urshella makes first spring appearance.
I would think that if both Kluber and Taillon have overcome their injuries, both will be surely in the rotation along with Cole and Montgomery barring injuries to them. That leave one spot with four or five guys competing for the spot. Then Louie Louie comes back in a few months.
The Yankees have gone four games now and only one injury. Clarke Schmidt pushed himself to hard before the first game was even played and set himself back several weeks.
It looks, right now as if the Yankees have enough good arms to weather an injury or two and still compete with anyone.
Sanchez with two spring home runs already is nice to see. Both home runs were off left handed pitcher however and it is only spring. He still has to prove he can do it on the big stage and bright lights come April 1st.
The joe-bama/commie MALADY administration since it's inception a month and a half ago has done so much damage to our country already, it is saddening. They are now releasing illegal aliens from Central America suffering with the Chinese virus covid-19 and allowing them to travel infected to all corners of the United States. They are infecting the American people. They are harming American people in any way possible, jobs, robbery, murder, burn, and loot. These illegals who would never have been allowed into the USA under President Trump, are not being tracked because any and all surveillance that was required by President Trump has been stopped. The USA is no longer energy independent because all that President Trump did to make us energy independent for the first time in history is being ripped apart by the scum joe-bama/commie MALADY administration forcing the American people to pay more for energy of all kinds, coal, gas, oil. We all must work together to defeat the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration and destroy the radical left wing socialist liberal democrat scum they are.
Deivi two innings. Gives up a HR in each.
Both Wojciehowski and Abreu massacred in fourth inning giving up 5 and 4 innings. No way to impress anyone. Yankees down 11-0 thru four innings.
Final Yankee lose 15-0. Eight inning game. Plus, Luetge one inning 3 K's. Gomez one perfect inning 1 K. Minus, Deivi 2 home runs in two innings, Wojciechowski, Abreu, Cortes all pathetic with each allowing multiple runs and showing little to nothing, Frazier 2 K's both looking.
If you are going to lose, the best way is to lose big. Then there are no should of or could of excuses.
I sent my senator an email asking him to vote against HR1, the democrat bill to payback their corrupt supporters. In it I called the democrat administration what has been used here, joe-bama/commie MALADY administration. I explained what MALADY meant also, just to make sure he knows how I feel about the dirtbags.
Detroit Tigers come to Tampa tomorrow. Game is 1pm with Domingo German listed as Yankee starting pitcher. Lets go German, yes you can.
How great would it be if German can come close to his 18-4 season. Wins are the only stat that matters.
Steve, very great. Yes, wins are the only stat that matters and wins determines the best players and the best teams. Now the facts are out there for all to see.
Lets go Yankees.

German make a long awaited debut. Andujar a 3B.
German is the man on stage today. If he earns the fifth rotation spot, it would give the Yankees several positive choices going forward.
I have one quick question for any liberal democrats out there who have the guts to respond.
Why wouldn't you want the USA to be energy independent so all Americans could pay as little as possible for their energy consumption?
German with a solid two innings. One hit, no runs, 4 K's, 31 pitches 21 for strikes.
A fine first outing from German.
Jimmy Thames, do you really expect a rational response from a democrat. There is NO REASON IN THE WORLD FOR ANY COUNTRY TO NOT WANT TO BE ENERGY INDEPENDENT. NONE, NOT ONE.
King follows German, goes two strong innings. One weak opposite field single, no runs, five ground outs and one K.
Luis Medina making his first appearance of spring and works 2/3 of inning. Wild, wild, wild, walks four and taken giving up one run as reliever gets third out.
Final, TIE GAME 1-1. Nine innings. Plus, German and King both with two strong innings each. Torres HR for Yankee only run. Minus, Medina four walks in 2/3 inning of complete lack of control.
Jimmy Thames, no response to your question yet. We are now governed by the worst people in America.
Yankees ride the bus to Bradenton FL for game with Pirates at 1PM. Taillon is starter for Yankees.
Aaron Boone update, all is good.
Two days after having heart surgery to insert a pacemaker, Yankees manager Aaron Boone found himself back at George M. Steinbrenner Field to say hello.
Boone hopes to be back in the dugout in the next couple of days, said he feels so much better than he did before the surgery. He felt lightheadedness, fatigue and shortness of breath. It didn't help that Boone had a low heart rate, either. Now it’s a different story. As he put it, he and his “new buddy,” the pacemaker, are doing fine.

After the Yankee stars played yesterday and mustered one lone run, it looks like they couldn't ride the bus to Bradenton today.
Jimmy, liberal democrat here. I do want the US to be energy independent and I don't know a any of my democrat friends who disagree with that. Further, the US made drastic gains towards energy independence during Obama's 8 years. Don't believe the lies that say democrats are against this just because they believe the long term costs outweigh long term benefits of specific proposed policies.
Yankees in a rain delay. Yes, stat frauds, the sunshine state does get rain.
Grosner, welcome back. You have a documented trail of being wrong and you are wrong again on your energy post. Your democrat friends my all want energy independence, but the democrat politicians you vote for do not want it. That is why the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration immediately stopped American energy independence. The US did not make any gains towards energy independence during the terrorist sympathizer and enabler Obama years. You are totally brainwashed if you believe your last sentence. The democrats will destroy this country, that is their goal. American's are already paying the price. Fifty cents a gallon or more already for gasoline and home heating costs increasing. America will NEVER be energy independent under a democrat administration.
They are warming up in Bradenton.
Eddie OConnor, that is funny.
Taillon goes two scoreless innings with four K's. Bruce and Frazier with solo home runs.
Final. Yankees lose 3-2. Seven inning game.
The Yankees host the Phillies tomorrow at one o'clock in Tampa with Monty starting the game. On MLB tv.
Jimmy, there are ways to look this stuff up...
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump falsely accused his predecessors Monday of locking up U.S energy. Production actually soared under President Barack Obama, bringing the country to the cusp of energy independence before Trump took office.
From 2008, U.S. oil production has grown each year to reach 9.4 million bpd in 2015 — a gain of 88% during Obama’s presidency. This is in fact the largest domestic oil production increase during any presidency in U.S. history.
Grosner, if you and your democrat friends really believe what you posted, you are all a sad bunch and you all are the problem with this country.
Grosner, I looked up some production number facts for the past two administrations, Obamas, and President Trumps. Here is the site...https://www.eia.gov/energyexplained/us-energy-facts/imports-and-exports.php
2008 Bushs last year 73.14 quadrillion BTUs
2009 Obama 72.59
2010 Obama 74.91
2011 Obama 78.08
2012 Obama 79.23
2013 Obama 81.84
2014 Obama 87.72
2015 Obama 88.25
2016 Obama 84.27
2017 Trump 88.05
2018 Trump 95.62
2019 Trump 101.04
2020 Trump no data
Obama went from 73.14 to 84.27 BTU increase over 8 years = gain of 11.13 BTU
Trump went from 84.27 to 101.04 BTU increase over 3 years = gain of 16.77 BTU
FACT: President Trump in just 3 years buries what Obama did in 8 years. Still need to add in 2020 when data becomes available.
You are wrong and lose again Grosner. Your loser streak is still in tact.
One week into spring training games and no injuries, knock on wood.
Every time a stat fraud or a democrat post here, it shows just how little they know. Both are brainwashed which equates with brain dead.
We should start to see some three inning games from pitchers soon.
Deb F, Monty could be first today for Yankees.
Grosner uses an AP fake news article they made up as proof of his point. A lie to back up a lie does not make a truth.
It seems like Grosner and his friends do not mind Americans paying higher prices for energy and paying it to foreign sources.
The biggest fact of the energy story is that President Trump in a few years and with no support from the political scum of this country made America energy independent and Americans paid less for energy to drive, to heat/cool their homes, to run their businesses.
Grosner is a typical democrat, who will look you straight in the face and lie to you, then support those lies with documentation that is made up and published by in the bag media cronies who all will parrot the same story with the same words as if you were in an echo chamber. As a final straw you will be stabbed in the back as you walk away from them.
I'll be at the Yankee today and mask free.
Cory, please read above. I said the US made drastic gains towards energy independence under Obama. Jimmy claimed the US made no gains towards energy independence under Obama. The numbers you shared back me up.

Does Monty go three innings today?
Grosner, baloney and Barbara Streisand. America has made energy production gains under every president since WW2. Obama did nothing special and absolutely did not make "drastic gains" in energy production. As a matter of fact his first year was a losing year in production. Go peddle your garbage to your democrat friends. Your 'article' was typical left wing propaganda.
Cory, nice job. Grosner is a thorn in the side of freedom, liberty, and the American way. He loves socialism and praises democrat mobs who roam American cities burning and destroying peoples lives.
Monty 1,2,3 first inning.
Andujar with two perfect innings. Could he go four today.
Monty 1,2,3 second inning.
Gardner with a second inning grand slam. Mr. Yankee.
Sean Smith, Andujar isn't pitching. LOL.
Montgomery was tested in his third inning of work. First two batters single, a popup single to center and a 30 foot roller down third base line. Two on, no outs. Monty gets next three batters easily for a shutout inning. Three innings, 0 runs, 2 cheap singles. Looked good.
Loaisiga on for the 4th. A scoreless bloop single inning.
Final. Yankees win 4-0. Plus, Monty and Loaisiga 3 and 2 shutout innings. Luetge 3K shutout inning. Gardner grand slam. Stanton 2 rocket line drive doubles. Sanchez and Andujar opposite field singles. Minus, none.
Yankees have an off day tomorrow.
So far no injuries but for Schmidt who pushed himself to early.
Great game today. Weather was cool for this time of year. The sun shined bright. Great pitching from Yanks.
Yankees spring camp invitee Lucas Luetge flying high this spring so far. Three innings, faced 11 batters, 0 runs 2 hits, 0 walks, 9 0uts with 8 of the outs K's.
Who's going fishing and who's going golfing? Off day to enjoy.
Luetge's three innings of work this spring has had to make the Yankees and many other teams take notice. He will land somewhere. A left reliever is always in need.
Saul Irving, does miniature golf count? Maybe just lying on the beach or at the pool soaking up some rays.
Yankees back in action tomorrow and head over to Lakeland FL to play the Tigers a 1:00PM game.

Yankees may be looking at Bruce for a lefty bat first baseman over Ford.
Deivi goes three innings. 0 runs 2 singles 0 walks 5 Ks. After each single Yanks turned a DP.
Very strong outing for another Yankee potential starter.
Bruce and Sanchez with HRs today. Looks like Bruce playing his way onto the opening day roster.
The democrat liberal socialist progressive radical left wing has made America the laughing stock of the world with a mentally and physically incompetent puppet as their leader. America is in trouble, in the most debt of all time and getting worst daily my massive amounts. The end is growing closer.
Final, Yankees lose 6-5. Good, Deivi, Bruce, Sanchez. Bad, Cessa, Luis Garcia.
Yankees will host the Pirates in Tampa tomorrow night at 6:30pm. TV game. I believe almost all games but for one will be televised this week.

Dietrich another left handed bat plays first base today. Andujar in left field.
Britton on the shelf for a couple of months opens the door for Luetge if he keeps doing what he has been doing in his three innings so far.
German goes a very in control, shut out, dominant, impressive three innings tonite.
New Yankee Justin Wilson make first spring appearance and goes 1/3 of an inning giving up 5 runs. Hope he does better going forward. He did leave a lot of room for improvement.
Final, Yankees win 6-5. Plus, German, Stanton. Minus, Wilson.

German curve ball was something else last night. the last batter he faced he struck out with a curve ball that fell off the table. Wow!
Cole goes three innings. One run three hits.
Loaisiga brilliant today. Out shadowed Cole. Three perfect innings, 9 up 9 down, the last 4 comebackers to the mound.
Final, Yankees win 6-1. Plus, Loaisiga, Chacin, Luetge.
Pitching has been pretty much outstanding this spring. Many good arms and good results so far. If it carries into the regular season thing will be good for 2021.
Luetge pitches final inning today. His 4th inning this spring. Infield popup, K, & K.
Four inning totals now 0 runs, 2 hits, 0 walks, 12 outs with 10 by strikeouts.
Biden is a fool, a tool, a puppet, and a dead man walking. America is being destroyed by the democrat left wing socialist liberal cabal in the swamp.
Tomorrow Yanks go to Lakeland and play Tigers a one o'clock game. Taillon starting for Yanks.
Luetge has to be the prime candidate to fill in for Britton.
Hopefully the new pitching coach in his first full season is making a difference in a positive way.
Billy Tedder, same with the training staff. Looks as if there is a bigger emphasis on flexibility.
To hear and see Joe Biden last night he inspired to confidence in America and left me with a vote of no confidence. He looked frail, weak, demented. Think of what leaders of other countries are thinking about the weakness of America.
Less than three weeks until 2021 opening day baseball.
Yankee third string backup catcher Robinson Chirinos was hit by a pitch in yesterdays game. The pitch fractured his wrist. Chirinos was not on the Yankee roster.

Five lefty bats in lineup. Something we may never see during the regular season.
When you listen to Biden, you know you are listening to a 50 year bought and paid for corrupt politician who is pure scum and doesn't give a damn about any voter of any kind. A disgusting and despicable swamp dweller. Fumigate the swamp once and for all, get rid of them all.
Taillon goes 2 2/3 innings today. 0 runs 2 hits 3 walks 4 Ks 51 pitches. Left 6 men on base. Has good stuff and movement. Needs to attack batters, and reduce pitch count. Just my opinion.
So true, Zhair. Biden prattled on for 30 minutes last night mourning 500+ dead Americans, speaking about national unity, and outlining an aggressive plan to defeat the virus and a return to normalcy. Ugh, so swampy, who needs to hear that? He is so demented!
Final, Yankees win 4-2. Plus, Brantly 2 run 8th inning HR.
Corey Kluber will start for the Yankees tomorrow in Tampa as the Yanks host the Pirates for a 1PM game.
Grosner, yesiree, Biden is a great cheerleader for America. Just the way he cheered on his army of destruction blm, and antifa as they destroyed cities and attacked innocent civilians, burning and looting, maiming and killing. Your hero, your fool, your swamp dweller.
Grosner & Jill Byrnes, Biden was silently endorsing the democrat organized mobs this past summer. He is a disgusting human being with absolutely no moral character. He lies, steals, robs, and destroys. He is now being used by the obama gang of anti-American left wing liberal socialist terrorists who will do and are doing whatever it takes to destroy America.
Come on people, the 2020 summer democrat debacle was only protests as described by the media, democrat politicians, and the blm and antifa groups of citizens.
From what I have seen this spring Bruce should make opening day roster.
As we head into the 2021 season WIN METHOD fans and all baseball fans remember these FACTS,
1. A home run is a home run no matter how far or how hard the ball is hit. 325ft or 475ft.
2. Individual stats are not as important as the cumulative of all players who win each
game.
3. Teams win each game with the contributions of each player on the team, not 1 or players.
4. Wins are the only stat that counts. Only wins get teams and players into the playoffs.
5. The more times individual players help their team to the playoffs the better players
they are.
6. Only the best of the best teams and players reach the playoffs and advance to the World
Series.
7. When watching a game look for which players produce when it matters (counts) the most in
determining if their team wins or not.
Remember and look for the above and you will see what baseball is about, what players more
consistently help their team win and just how every player offensively and defensively help their team win. Wins and winning is the only stat that determines the best players and teams.

LeMahieu picking up where he left off single in first and three run home run in second today.
Kluber goes four mediocre innings today. 54 pitches, 2 runs, 4 hits, 1 HR, 0 walks, 2 HBP, 2Ks. Still building after so much time down.
Chapman has added another pitch to his repetoire.
Final, Yankees win 7-5. LeMahieu three run homer.
Yankees head to Dunedin FL for a 1PM game tomorrow against the Toronto Blue Jays.
Kluber is throwing free and easy. Just keep building up slowly and safely.

Deivi will be tested against the Blue Jay lineup today. Bloom and grow Deivi.
Steve(winstheonlystat), you posted the bible of baseball. Number 7 twice for effect hits home to those of us who follow the WIN METHOD. When it counts is the most important thing in baseball, not how much or how many, (except for wins).
Lets go Yankees.
Deivi goes three solid innings. 44 pitches, 1 run (unearned), 1 hit, 2 walks, 2 K's.
Luetge in for his fifth inning this spring. Walk, K runner out stealing, fly out to center.
Five inning totals now 0 runs, 2 hits, 1 walk, 15 outs with 11 by strikeouts.
Final Yankees win 5-1. Yankee pitching outstanding, one unearned run on a throwing error.

Bruce at first base again. Frazier is supposed to be the left fielder, but Gardner has buried him this spring so far.
German throws four "ace" like innings today. 46 pitches, 35 for strikes, 0 runs 3 hits,
1 walk, 6 Ks. Looked in total control.
German with four more shutout innings today. Has really looked good this spring. Right now he looks like the #2 behind Cole.
Stanton is looking good. Really locked in and hitting the ball very hard.
Final Yankees win 4-2. German locking in a rotation spot. King strong three innings.
Yankees hit the road again to Lakeland FL for a one o'clock game with the Tigers. Yankee starter will be Cole.

A most unique selection of players and positions for todays game. Take a second look.
Cole goes an uninspiring 3 2/3 innings. 61 pitches, 40 strikes, 2 runs, 3 hits, 2 home runs, 1 walk, 1 hbp, 5 Ks.
Final Yankees win 7-4. Voit, Frazier, and Urshella all with strong at bats.
The joe-bama/commie criminal cartel is destroying America. The southern border is a sieve allowing drug and child smuggling, disease carrying illegal immigrants, and murderous gangs members to enter and disperse throughout the country. Energy independence is gone and Americans are paying through the nose for gasoline for their cars and fuel for their homes. Taxes for Americans are soon going trough the roof as the joe-bama/commie criminal cartel fuels their enterprise and their goal of destroying America and the American way of life. Your freedoms and being taken away, your rights are being taken away, and law and order are being taken away. Your children are being brainwashed and are being taught harmful and evil things by the corrupt foul liberal left wing teachers union scum. America's end is near and the final curtain will fall.
The Yankees head to Dunedin FL tomorrow where Jordan Montgomery will start against the Toronto Blue Jays at 1PM.
There is only one way to stop the joe-bama/commie scum democrats. All sane voters who love America must get woke and never vote for a democrat, liberal, socialist, progressive, or left leaning politician again. Take back our country from the democrat scum who will destroy it and you.

DJ at third base today. Looks like Boone is giving regulars reps at other infield positions just in case.
OK fans, how did Monty pitch today. Monty went five innings. 66 pitches, 42 strikes, 0 runs, 0 hits, 1 walk, 1 hbp, 4 Ks. Monty pitched a brilliant game from his first pitch to his last.
A magnificent effort and his best five inning stint of his life.
As Mel Allen would have said, "how about that".
A fact that all Americans should remember and laud forever, as millions of us receive the Trump vaccine. If Donald Trump was not President last year, there would be no Covid vaccine now and there would not be one on the near future. The timeline for a working vaccine to be developed was at least five years. President Trump eliminated meaningless "swamp" regulations and roadblocks. He invested federal dollars to help fund the pharmaceutical companies and demanded them to develop a vaccine at warp speed. America had a vaccine in months and now Americans are reaping the benefit by being vaccinated. All hail the greatest President Donald Trump.
Final, Yankees win 1-0. What a game from the three Yankee pitchers today. Monty was exceptional and almost perfect over five innings, 0 runs and 0 hits 1 walk. Chancin 2 2/3 innings, 0 runs 2 hits 1 walk 3 Ks. And to close it out and continue his scoreless innings streak thru out the playoffs Luetge 1 1/3 inning, 0 runs, 2 hits, 0 walks, and 2 more Ks.
Totals for the three Yankee pitchers, 118 pitches, 77 strikes, 0 runs, 4 hits, 2 walks, 1 hbp, 9 Ks.
sid greenber,nyc and Erica Nuyens, both of you great posts. One baseball and one politics. Both uplifting, positive, and the truth.
How about this thought, the Yankees this spring is only a warmup to what they will do during the season ahead.
Erica Nuyens, great post. President Trump did so much for average Americans. The swamp dwellers, the elite billionaires, the fake news, dumocrats, left wing loonies, etal, all hated him. Their hate for him and what they did to him should tell the American people just how great he was.
Earl Lennon, if you are right, it is going to be one heck of a year.
Yankees have an off day tomorrow, last of spring training. Two weeks until opening day of the Yankee season. Lets go Yankees.
Next two times thru the starting rotation Boone will likely be setting the guys up on how he wants to start the season.
The way the schedule is now, the Yankees could go three weeks into April and only need four starters.
The joe-bama/commie administration is aiding and abetting drug smuggling, human trafficking, and child smuggling into the United States. This is now and will be forever a black stain on our country. Write and call your representatives immediately and demand that they put and end to these violations of human decency by the democrat radical left wing liberal progressive socialists. These people must be eradicated.
Cancel democrats. They are 🤡🤡🤡
Final spring cuts should be completed in another week, then the 26 man roster will be known.
An interesting read about American terrorist sympathizer and enabler and his administration that started to complete destruction of America as we know it. The article is long and will be posted in two posts.
POST ONE.
The Least Transparent Administration
How Team Obama stymies freedom of information requests.
June 2, 2015 7:22 pm ET.....
A federal judge last week excoriated the State Department for sitting on Hillary Clinton’s emails, ordering it to release batches every 30 days. The State Department deserved the rebuke, but then it is merely following the rules laid down by the least transparent Administration in history....
The House Oversight Committee on Tuesday began a two-day hearing into the extraordinary ways the Obama Administration keeps undermining the Freedom of Information Act. Enacted in 1966, FOIA allows anyone to request information about any matter from a federal agency. The agency has 20 business days to respond (10 more in unusual circumstances), and the bar is set deliberately high for what government may withhold or redact....
Most Administrations play games with FOIA, but the Obama White House has turned stonewalling into an art form. A favorite tactic is to ignore or string out the requests. That’s what State did in Mrs. Clinton’s case, claiming it simply couldn’t get around to issuing her emails until next year. A court order was needed to get it to move, and that’s typical across the Administration....
FOIA request backlogs have more than doubled since President Obama took office. The feds received 714,231 FOIA requests in fiscal 2014, and nearly 160,000 weren’t processed within the legal time limit, up 67% from fiscal 2013....
Another trick is to impose sky-high fees. Under FOIA, certain groups (media, educational) are exempt from most fees, so agencies have taken to denying them their legitimate categorizations. The Department of Homeland Security is currently in court for having denied a research institute at Syracuse University educational status, which could cost the institute more than $100,000 for a FOIA request....
Most disturbing are examples of destroying or hiding information. FOIA requests are supposed to be handled by specific FOIA staff as a guard against political types hiding information. Yet the Journal reported in May that Mrs. Clinton’s longtime aide, Cheryl Mills, interfered with FOIA staff at State, at times blocking the release of politically sensitive documents..
In March federal Judge Royce Lamberth blasted the Environmental Protection Agency for mishandling a FOIA request from a conservative group seeking to discover if the agency had delayed controversial regulations in the run-up to the 2012 election. The judge found that FOIA officers and top aides to then-Administrator Lisa Jackson blew off the request until after Election Day and didn’t inform EPA employees of their obligation to retain relevant documents....
POST TWO
“Either EPA sought to evade [a] lawful FOIA request so the agency could destroy responsive documents, or EPA demonstrated apathy and carelessness toward [the] request,” wrote Judge Lamberth. In 2012 outside groups also discovered that Ms. Jackson had used a second EPA email address under the name “ Richard Windsor, ” which may have been set up to stymie FOIA requests....
Congressional investigators have found examples of Obama officials excessively redacting information, or inappropriately shielding it from FOIA disclosure. The Administration is in particular abusing a FOIA exception that allows agencies to redact details that are legally privileged or “deliberative”—meaning that they relate to an agency’s decision-making process....
One example is the EPA’s ideological decision to veto the proposed Pebble Mine in Alaska even before the EPA had conducted a scientific review. A December 2010 email string reveals that numerous EPA employees were working on that veto years earlier, and that several gave advice to an environmental attorney named Jeff Parker who opposed the project and who helped Native American tribes petition against it....
At the end of this string, the EPA’s Richard Parkin, a point man on Pebble, asks EPA attorney Cara Steiner-Riley : “Cara, in terms of the record for the decision making on the 404(c) petitions, are message chains such as this one, protectable from FOIA? should we be concerned with that? Should are subject line include something like Atty/Client Privileged or what ever? Should we just do that routinely?”....
Given that most of the emails concerned EPA’s communications with non-EPA players, they are hardly privileged. We assume EPA lawyers recognized the risk of FOIA exposure because the email chain suddenly stops....
President Obama famously vowed to run the “most transparent” Administration in history. Instead he has presided over one that has systematically abused a law intended to assist public disclosure and keep government accountable....
