The 2022 season is over. Another solid winning season making the playoffs. Sadly another season of getting knocked out of the playoffs and not making the World Series. A good season, yes, to make the playoffs, but not good enough to make the World Series.
The hot stove has been hot and is burning strong. Many big names have changed uniforms so far. The YANKEES re-signed free agent Aaron Judge and signed a top of the rotation starter in free agent Carlos Rodon.
As I told all the WIN METHOD fans in my July 5, 2022 blogpost, Aaron Judge was not going to sign with any other team but the YANKEES. Attaining Rodon is a fine upgrade to the starting rotation. With the addition of Rodon, the rotation is more balanced with three right handed starters and two left handed starters. Cole, Cortes, Rodon, Louie Louie, and Montas.
With Benintendi lost to free agency there is an opening in left field, I would think and hope the YANKEES will give Oswaldo Cabrera every chance to earn and then hold the left field position. Then there is the infield to deal with. First base as of now is the only infield position set in stone. Anthony Rizzo has first base locked up. There may or may not be a deal coming this winter to help decide the infield spots at second base, third base, and shortstop. But the YANKEES have an abundance of bodies in LeMahieu, Torres, Peraza, Kiner-Falefa, Donaldson, and possible even Volpe to fill the three positions. How things shake out during the winter break and then spring training will eventually tell the story.
The bullpen has many arms and should be no issue throughout the 2023 season, There are a couple of youngsters in the minors who are still developing and who knows just when the light bulb goes off for them and they are ready to make an impact at the major league level.
At the catcher position. Personally, I am looking forward to seeing what left handed hitting catcher Ben Rortvedt will bring to the team. Rortvedt may provide a big surprise. I would think the YANKEES will not carry three catchers and either Trevino or Higashioka will be gone.
In the minor leagues the YANKEES have a bunch of fine looking youngsters at all positions, as WIN METHOD as they can be, how they bloom and grow over time will determine their ultimate value.
WIN METHOD fans, I can't say this often enough. You are the smartest and most knowledgeable baseball fans in the world. You make fans at all the other blogs, sites, forums, or whatever look silly. You all, have made the WIN METHOD blog the number one go to site for YANKEE baseball talk and information, You fans are positive, uplifting, and use common sense. All of you KNOW baseball. Around February 2023, this blog will attain one billion five hundred million views, 1,500,000,000. Thank you all, you truly are the greatest YANKEE fans in the world.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS, to each and every one of you wherever you are across this planet. I still get amazed when I look and see the hundreds of countries all of the viewers of the WIN METHOD blog come from. Everyone, have a happy and healthy new year. Lets win a World Series. LETS GO YANKEES.

«Oldest ‹Older 401 – 600 of 2034 Newer› Newest»In rereading the recent baseball posts, it got me to thinking that when WIN METHOD alluded to Hal coming around to the WIN METHOD, I know that WIN METHOD was really high on Dominguez and Volpe, several pitchers and other position players that were drafted/acquired. That could be why the Yankees have a slew of youngsters who may bloom and grow soon, why the Hal spent on Judge and Rodon. Just try to put two and two together. I've been posting here since the beginning in August 2008. When we hear from WIN METHOD good things seem to happen.
Deb F, you must have liked something, you are still here and posting consistently.
Regarding Cory's question, because each season is an event by itself, I believe that winning the World Series is the single biggest achievement for each season. Second is making the playoffs, and third advancing through the playoffs (moving past the wild card round).
Gus Papa, I see what you are talking about. If I get some time I may look into it.
Xi an the PPC are playing Biden like a fiddle. After not shooting down the huge PPC spy balloon immediately, and then allowing it to float over the entire United States for a week, getting all the information the PPC wanted, Biden is now shooting down everything that moves.
It's almost time. Camp opens Thursday for Yankees.
Three day until Yankee 2023 spring training camp opens in Tampa. Here's to another successful winning season.
Very interesting and makes a point.......In 1958 NORAD (North American Aerospace Defense) Command was instituted by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. That was 65 years ago. The first time NORAD ever shot down anything was this year 2023, 65 years after it was instituted. And guess who used it? Yep, you got it, the mental dwarf, the criminal running our country along with his merry band of traitors, felons, and American hating dimwits, Joe Biden. The end is coming, the end is coming.
The worst MLB commissioner has done it again. Manfred just stated that the ignorant extra innings rule is now permanent. May Manfred rot in hell, while he is still alive.
Extra inning baseball is now the rule, and that makes extra inning games fake. Manfred and Biden, two peas in a pod, two useless human beings, destroying good things.
Ronald, what did you think of WIN METHOD telling the world that Aaron Judge was going to wear a Yankee uniform for his entire career back in July 2022 when so many people thought he may sign with another team for more money? The WIN METHOD fans knew Judge was staying a Yankee, while ninety percent of baseball did not.
It is Valentines Day.
Happy Valentines Day everyone.
Two more day until Yankee spring camp opens.
Baseball, sports greatest game will be back in action soon.
Pepe Gonzales, Biden has never been mentally, physically, or morally fit to hold any political office of any kind, anywhere. That is why he is the perfect liberal democrat puppet flunkie.
Biden hasn't spoken in a week about anything. The joe-bama/commie MALADY administration is one heck of a band of misfits, traitors, liberals, democrats, and America hating bottom feeders and are deliberately collaborating with enemy nations to end America.
Tomorrow is the day, Yankee spring training camp open tomorrow and baseball will be back, with spring training game in just over a week later. Time for it, time for lets go Yankees.
Yankees left-hander Nestor Cortes has withdrawn from the World Baseball Classic due to an injured hamstring. The injury is actually a Grade 2 hamstring strain, and Cortes will not throw off a mound for the next two weeks. The world baseball classic is a joke, a farce, and MLB should not allow its players to be involved with it. Then again, the MLB commissioner is a joke, a farce, and should not be involved with MLB.
Where o' where has Joe Biden gone
He's hiding in the basement full of fear
He's getting another round of medications
So he can continue to destroy what we all hold dear
Nikki Haley announces her run for 2024 Presidency today. Hand picked by President Trump for the position of America's UN Ambassador during his term as President.
Disingenuous, Deep state, RINO lightweights like Nikki Haley and Ron "Meatball" Desantis refer to Trump as a LOSER thereby implying the election wasn't stolen.
These disloyal crooks need to get onboard the MAGA train and stop trying to destroy American by trying to take down the man that made them.
I could write Trump fundraising emails...this is easy.
How many people will get sick and or die because of corrupt Bidens corrupt EPA actions in the East Palestine, Ohio train derailment! They turned the derailment into a toxic burn pit.
Handleman, the EPA did not burn these toxic chemicals, Norfolk Southern under the approval of Governor Dewine did.
But I agree with your main gist: we need much stronger EPA oversight and regulations because obviously corporations can not be trusted to do what is right to protect our environment and our people.
Yankee camp is open, baseball is back.
Grosner, so we are to believe (and you are probably right) that the Biden run EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) under the auspicious of the feckless, useless, criminal Joe Biden, did nothing to ensure the safety of American citizens, and will let them and their progeny suffer/die in the future from poisonous gases, contaminated water and soil. Sounds like 911 all over again.
The devastating consequences of a train derailment in Ohio are still coming into focus more than 11 days after toxic chemicals sparked a massive fire and forced thousands to evacuate.
Some 50 train cars derailed in the town of East Palestine on 3 February, about 20 of them carrying hazardous substances.
More than 2,000 residents evacuated in the aftermath of the derailment have since returned home - but the ecological fallout continues to unfold with reports of people falling ill and animals dropping dead as the EPA and Biden impotently look on.
New data released by transport company Norfolk Southern revealed the train was carrying more chemicals than initially reported.
In the immediate aftermath of the crash, officials were most concerned about vinyl chloride, a volatile colorless gas. New data shows the train was also carrying several other dangerous chemicals, including the carcinogen ethylhexyl acrylate and butyl acrylate.
Calls for action from local leaders to President Joe Biden EPA continue to mount as the full extent of the disaster grows.
Officials have since confirmed that chemicals from the derailment have seeped into the Ohio River basin, potentially affecting 25 million people with no word from Biden and the EPA.
Gleyber Torres wanted to be on his game for the 2023 season, so he logged off.
Torres said he stopped looking at social media in November, not wanting his offseason to be affected by speculation concerning a possible trade. As he unloaded his gear in a locker at Yankees camp, the infielder said he was exactly where he wanted to be.
“I know everybody here; I feel like this is my home,” Torres said. “For sure, I don’t want to leave. This year and the next year, I just want to put up really good numbers and try to stay all of my career with the Yankees.”
Let's see what he does this spring.
Correct, Handleman. The Biden run EPA (as well as the Trump and Obama run EPA) is too weak and does not have nearly enough funding, power, restrictions and oversight abilities to protect our citizens. The EPA has been gutted by decades of corporate lobbying from companies like Norfolk Southern.
Biden, congress, and others should push hard to put some teeth back in the EPA and they should be criticized if they don't.
No one should ever mention Trump with Biden and Obama. Trump worked for American and the American people. Biden and Obama worked for themselves and are doing whatever they can to destroy America and the American people. The liberal democrats used the EPA to hurt the people, not help them.
Noticeably absent from President Biden’s health checkup on Thursday was any kind of cognitive test that may have alleviated concerns over his mental fitness. Despite that glaring omission, Biden received a clean bill of health.
“President Biden remains a healthy, vigorous 80-year-old male who is fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, to include those as Chief Executive, Head of State and Commander in Chief,” physician Kevin O’Connor claimed in a Thursday memo.
But former White House doctor Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) is shocked that Biden’s physicians would gloss over cognitive testing —especially for an octogenarian.
“We learned NOTHING from Biden’s physical exam. How bad is his cognitive issue?” Jackson said “Is he on ANY drugs to treat his mental decline? This exam was a JOKE. COVER UP!!”
“WHY ON EARTH did Biden not get a cognitive exam?” Jackson added. “Trump had one, why not him? Biden’s ability to think and reason is GONE! He SHOULD NOT be President!!”
Ohio governor Dewine, is on national TV now telling everyone there is no air contamination and
no water contamination at the train derailment site in Ohio. Sounds like a bought and paid for politician to me.
Good point, Sam. Trump should not be mentioned in sam breath as Obama and Biden because only one actively achieved rolling back rail safety regulations. Trump is also the only one the 3 to cheat on his wife with a porn star.
https://thehill.com/policy/energy-environment/408125-trump-admin-rolls-back-obama-oil-train-safety-rule/
The Trump administration has finalized a roll back of Obama-era regulations for oil trains.
The rules, which date back to 2015, required railroads carrying crude oil or other flammable liquids to outfit their trains with more responsive electronic braking systems. The rules came in response to concerns about explosions and spills from mile-long trains of crude and ethanol. In the Northwest, those trains move along the Columbia River and through cities to coastal refineries
The U.S. Department of Transportation, which has been working on rescinding the rules since last December, said in statement this week that its analysis showed the cost of requiring railroads to equip trains with the new brakes outweighed the potential benefits
I was wondering why the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration was doing nothing regarding the East Palestine, Ohio rail disaster/air and water contamination. So I looked up the voting results for the November 2022 elections. Low and behold, East Palestine is a right wing conservative republican stronghold. Every election, for every contested office in East Palestine was won in a landslide by the republican candidate. EVERY ONE. The republicans won in average with over 70% of the vote. This, very well explains the in-actions of the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration, EPA, FEMA, and transportation secretary Pere Butthead.
Criminal corruption to the Nth degree by liberal left wing democrat scum try to destroy America and America's greatest people.
Anonymous, you are a fraud. Here is the in context rail safety rollback by Trump...
The Trump administration on Monday repealed a mandate that would have required trains carrying crude oil to use special brakes with new technology.
The Department of Transportation’s Pipelines and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) said it undertook a congressionally mandated analysis of the provision in a 2015 regulation under which oil trains would have had to use electronically controlled pneumatic (ECP) brakes.
“The Department [of Transportation] determined that the expected benefits, including safety benefits, of implementing ECP brake system requirements do not exceed the associated costs of equipping tank cars with ECP brake systems, and therefore are not economically justified,” PHMSA said.
The mandate to phase out traditional air brakes for crude oil use was part of a comprehensive rule that the Obama administration wrote in 2015 to try to improve the safety of crude oil trains.
Transporting crude oil by rail has increased dramatically in recent years due to a boost in domestic and Canadian oil production. But with the increased traffic have come major crashes and explosions, like one in 2013 in Lac-Megantic, Quebec, that killed 47, one in 2013 in North Dakota and one in Oregon in 2016.
The rule was mainly meant to implement a new design for tank cars that carry crude, with new requirements for metal thickness and fire protection. The brake mandate and speed limits were also in the new regulation.
The brake requirement was a top target for the railroad and oil industries in pushing back against parts of the 2015 rule.
Congress, in the bipartisan Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act of 2016, told the PHMSA to conduct a new cost-benefit analysis of the brake provision. If the costs outweighed the benefits, the PHMSA was required to repeal it.
“Despite the additional testing and modeling, we still believe that there is insufficient data demonstrating that ECP braking systems provide a demonstrable increase in safety over other more widely used braking systems,” the American Petroleum Institute told the PHMSA after it proposed Monday’s action in December.
What Trump rolled back dealt with oil trains only. It was the right thing to do and it helped make America energy independent and a world supplier of natural gas and crude oil that would have overwhelmingly made America and the Americans great again.
America and Americans great again, was wiped out on day one of the most foul, corrupt, and criminal person Joe Biden and his joe-bama/commie MALADY administration stopped America for producing and developing natural gas and crude oil, while at the same time opened America's southern border to millions of terrorists, criminals, and drug cartels who would be allowed to murder American citizens.
MAGA 2024 wake up America, thank you for your post. These criminals must be wiped out.
The United States government as it now stands and is being run by the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration is a disgrace to every sane and responsible American citizen of every race, creed, and color. This administration needs to burned to the ground.
The mayor of East Palestine Ohio, when asked in an interview today what he would tell the disgrace Pete Buttigieg about coming to his town, the mayor said, "don't come here unless you bring a shovel and want to dig in the dirt".
What an embarrassment we have running our country, from the very top to the very bottom. Not a person with any social redeeming value.
Three days into camp. Position players show up in a couple of days. First spring training Yankee game next Sunday the 26th.
No Yankee spring training news so far. Give it a week or two.
Cortes did throw off the mound today. Guess the hamstring isn't that bad.
First full camp workout tomorrow. Let the fun begin.
The U.S. should cut off all dealings with China. Everything. Immediately.
Gordon Chang, I agree, and also not fund nor support any American companies that deal with China. The companies can deal with China if they wish, but without any American tax dollar support or government support.
Gordon & Dudley, start with Nike & Coca Cola.
Marjorie Taylor Green calls for a divorce of the United States into red versus blue states and says Biden should be impeached for visiting and supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression. A literal call to destroy America.
This is today's Republican Party.
Nothing like dealing with the enemy. Don't worry, be happy, the end is nearer than you think.
Marjorie Taylor Greene can't say or do a thing to destroy America. But almost everything the traitor criminal Biden does is destroying America.
Ben Rortvedt, who has never appeared in a game for the Yankees, is dealing with a finger injury right now. No word on who, how, what, or when. 😏
Gil McKenzie, With Rortvedt being into body building and muscle, that isn't really conducive to agility and mobility sports such as baseball. I wonder if we well ever see him.

You just totally made the point that Trump ignored the need for ECP brakes and voted down the regulation that would have prevented this tragedy. If the people in this area voted 70% for Trump, they are getting what they bargained for. No regulation, no EPA, no pushback against corporations that are going to put all Americans (regardless of party) at risk to make an extra 1%.
This is why we have a government- to protect us from what happened in East Palestine. But Republicans decided to drown it in a bathtub.
Tony Volpe Sr., sir, I think you missed the point. Brakes did not cause the derailment in East Palestine.
""""On Feb. 3, about three dozen Norfolk Southern freight cars derailed near East Palestine, a town of roughly 4,800. Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board have indicated that the derailment was likely caused by a wheel bearing failure.""""
Tony Volpe Sr., if you did not understand the quote from Veerayut Maneechote's post. Brakes and or brake failure had nothing to do with the accident. May I suggest, post your lies on the fraud sites.
Talk of using Judge in left field and Stanton in right field.
AAA, wonder whose idea that is.
I have a hard time believing Judge wouldn't be anything but excellent in left field if needed.
Stanton says field time helps his hitting by keeping him more engaged which makes sense. I say let the DH serve as 3rd base coach during games when he is not batting. Better view of pitcher and his timing, less time sitting, and less strain on body than crashing into outfield walls.
Grosner. all you stated is likely true. However, I am not particularly thrilled having Judge in a position that is new for him. Especially at his age. A lot of ground to cover in left field at Yankee stadium.
Hobbs, if Judge can play center field at the Stadium, he can play left field. Then as soon has Stanton gets hurt, Judge can go back to right field. I do not like Cabrera not getting a full shot at left and/or play every day.
President Trump visits East Palestine, Ohio today to meet, listen, and talk to the people suffering under the feckless no shows Biden and Butthead.
Latest on Rortvedt, he has been bothered by a finger ailment that doctors had been unable to pinpoint in recent days. He met with a specialist yesterday, and an operation was performed that addressed an aneurysm near the posterior in his left shoulder, which had impacted the circulation in his hand and finger. He’ll be shut down from all baseball activity for at least the next month.
If Pete Buttigieg’s job is to ignore his job, then he’s really doing a great job! He has no character nor morals. He has no value.
We need to rehire China-loving Elaine "Coco Chow", the steadfast Transportation secretary Trump handpicked, then publicly derided with racist mockery.
Remember how she handled train derailments under Trump? Neither do I because none of have any idea what Transportation Secretaries do and how they do it and it silly to pretend otherwise.
Grosner, you have a bad case of TDS.
The United States secretary of transportation is a cabinet level position responsible for maintaining and improving the country's transportation system. So far Pete Butthead has failed miserably at his job, which was totally expected.
Spring training games starting this weekend. Opening day for regular season in five weeks.
Butthead makes a fool of himself every time he speaks, and did so again in East Palestine, Ohio where he made no friends, while he illustrated the corruption of the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration.
Jasson Dominguez listed in lineup for first Yankee spring game tomorrow.
Everyone wants to see Jasson, that is a lot of pressure for someone so young, and have so many expecting so much from him.
Here it is fans. This afternoon's Yankee lineup. Let the kids play.
Ryan Weber (R) P

7. Jasson Dominguez (S) CF
8. Estevan Florial (L) RF
9. Anthony Seigler (S) C
Dominguez in CF, as Bader DH's. It has to be a thrill for the first timers. Baseball is back.
Jasson Dominguez had the hardest hit ball in todays game at 109 mph. It was a line drive home run.
Lets go Yankees.
Looking at the video replay of Dominguez HR yesterday, if that ball was hit in the old Yankee Stadium, depending on the positioning of the center fielder, the ball would have been a double, triple, possible an inside the park HR if the fielder took a bad route to the ball, or it would have been caught.
Yankee split squad game with Braves today.
Clarke Schmidt (R) P

8. Carlos Narvaez (R) C
9. Jesus Bastidas (R) 2B
Looks like Machado about to sign an 11 year deal with the Padres. The Yankees dodged a bullet by not signing him. A big waste of a lot of dollars. I remember WIN METHOD being totally against Machado forever.
The Yankees won both games with a split squad. The 'A' split squad manhandled the Atlanta Braves 7-0. The Yanks used five pitchers and allowed only one hit. Trevino a first inning grand slam the big hit of the game.
In the 'B' split squad game the Yankees defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 9-5 with the Jays using most of their starting players. The Yankees used seven pitchers in this game and only one of the seven came up with a poor outing. Volpe had a solid game for the Yankees going 2-4 and stealing 2 bases.
Clark Schmidt making a bid for the fifth starter roll went two innings striking out five Brave batters.
Cory, although today was a nice showing from several Yankees who may be key factors this season. Can't wait until opening day, for when it counts.
Volpe was impressive.
Three spring games, and no LeMahieu, Stanton, Rizzo, Higashioka, Donaldson yet.
Biden is deliberately extending the war in Ukraine by slow walking military aide to Ukraine. Should have gave them all the arms and equipment they need(ed) last year. Tanks, fighter jets. long range bombs, etc. The Ukrainians could have driven the Russians out of Ukraine already. But no, hundreds of thousands of men, women, and children have and are dying because of our corrupt, feckless, criminal, disgrace, Joe Biden.
Mel Nikowski, All five of them are older players. All 33+?
Irene Haas, let's see now. Biden is afraid of Putin. Biden is bought and paid for by Xi. Biden goal is the destruction of America. That pretty much sums up Biden. Only a fool or someone who believes as he does, would vote for and support him -- that is a third of our country.
Spring training game four.
Luis Severino (R) P
1. Isiah Kiner-Falefa (R) SS
2. Willie Calhoun (L) DH
3. Oswaldo Cabrera (S) 3B

6. Jake Bauers (L) 1B
7. Estevan Florial (L) LF
8. Rodolfo Duran (R) C
9. Billy McKinney (L) RF
Louie Louie starting. Volpe at 2b. Cabrera at 3b.
Yankee kiddie corps with an 8-5 win tonight. Dominguez for just turning 20, has a lot of poise and an athlete's body.
Both Schmidt and Severino went two innings in each of their starts throwing 38 and 45 pitches. Schmidt was sharp but Severino was not. Both threw hard mph wise.
Road spring training game today and home game tomorrow. You will see more of the big name Yankees in tomorrows game at home at Steinbrenner Field. It is nice seeing the Yankees giving so many lower level youngsters a chance to show what they have. In a few more days they will be cut so they can go to their minor league team camps.
Spring training game five.
Sean Boyle (R) P
1. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
2. Oswald Peraza (R) SS
3. Rafael Ortega (L) LF

6. Billy McKinney (L) DH
7. Everson Pereira (R) RF
8. Michael Hermosillo (R) CF
9. Wilmer Difo (S) 3B
Peraza at shortstop.
The joe-bama/commie MALADY administration admits lying about number of well permits on federal lands where available. Now they claim 6700 instead of the 9000 they originally claimed were available.
Really doesn't make much difference because the oil companies only want to explore where oil is available and not on just any piece of land the corrupt liberal democrat criminal government allows. Bury the joe-bama/commie MALADY administration forever.
Yankee minor leaguers did not hit and especially did not pitch well today going down 12-0.
Should see some names in Yankee lineup for Wed. game.
Game six spring training.
Domingo German (R) P
1. DJ LeMahieu (R) 2B
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Anthony Rizzo (L) 1B
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Josh Donaldson (R) 3B
6. Harrison Bader (R) CF
7. Aaron Hicks (S) LF
8. Kyle Higashioka (R) C
9. Isiah Kiner-Falefa (R) SS
Boone went with the old school lineup. Hicks is no an asset, he is a liability.
Cabrera should be the left fielder for now. Hicks is known quantity. Cabrera is young and developing. With just two months of baseball under his belt, and all during a pennant run and playoffs, Cabrera has already shown to be a smarter baseball wise player, faster, better hitter and better fielder.
Yanks win on a two run walk off home run from yet another youngster, Navarez. German looked good as the pitching was solid again for the Yanks. DJ Lemahieu looked good in field and at the plate. His return will make the Yanks that much stronger for the 2023 season.
Domenic, Carlos Narvaez hit the walk off HR. You misplace the R in his name. 24 year old catcher.
Game SEVEN. Spring Training.
Albert Abreu (R) P
1. Anthony Volpe (R) 2B
2. Oswaldo Cabrera (S) 3B
3. Aaron Hicks (S) DH
4. Jose Trevino (R) C
5. Oswald Peraza (R) SS
6. Rafael Ortega (L) LF
7. Michael Hermosillo (R) CF
8. Jake Bauers (L) 1B
9. Estevan Florial (L) RF
2b, 3b, ss, all solid. dh, pathetic,
Volpe leads off game with home run.
Yankees kids win again, 9-1. Youngsters are blooming and growing.
Several of our minor leaguers looked pretty good today. Cabrera over Hicks everyday, anyday.
Yankees showing a lot of depth this spring. Much youth turning the corner.
6:30 game today, at home, should see many regulars. If Hicks is in lineup again, it would be a disgrace.
Spring training game 8.
Gerrit Cole (R)
1. DJ LeMahieu (R) 3B
2. Aaron Judge (R) RF
3. Gleyber Torres (R) 2B
4. Giancarlo Stanton (R) DH
5. Willie Calhoun (L) LF
6. Harrison Bader (R) CF
7. Isiah Kiner-Falefa (R) SS
8. Kyle Higashioka (R) C
9. Billy McKinney (L) 1B
Cole makes his spring debut.
Cole goes three innings. Very sharp, 51 pitches, 37 strikes, 0 runs, 1 hit, 0 walks, 4 K's.
Michael King follows Cole and makes his first appearance of the spring. King throws 2 innings of flawless pitching. 20 pitches, 15 strikes, 0 runs, 0 hits, 0 walks, 4 K's. Whoa Nellie.
Schmidt next up and bombs out. Goes 1 2/3 innings allowing 4 runs on 3 hits and a walk including a HR. Not good and he takes a step backwards for the 5th man in rotation.
So glad King looked so good. He could be a bullpen gem for 2023.
Final score, Tigers 5 Yankees 3. Some very nice bright spots, and then there is the bad, Schmidt-horrible, Garcia-bad.
Luis Luis makes second start today and Rodon makes first start tomorrow.

""Biden Admin Attacks Those Opposing Abortion Pills After Walgreens Decision

Cabrera three run home run. A no doubter.
Yankees go down 14-10 this afternoon. Pluses and minuses.
Pitchers during spring training must be taken with a grain of salt. Particularly the more established ones. They may be working on a new pitch or delivery, etc. Then there the youngsters trying to stand out, and they overthrow, get flustered, etc.

Everybody plays this spring. Focus will be on Rodon.
Cabrera with another home run. First inning solo blast off a quality pitcher. He has to play every day.
Rodon looks like he is throwing batting practice. Has given up 5 runs in 2+ innings and throwing 91-91 mph. It looks like he needs more time to get ready, which is good, UNLESS he is injured.
Trailing 6-2 going into the 9th inning, the Yankees scored 8 runs for a 10-6 win. Jamie Westbrook hit a 3 run HR to cut the Brave lead to 6-5. Then Jasson Dominguez followed with a 3 run HR for an 8-6 Yankee lead. The Yanks scored 2 more runs to cap off the big inning and the win. Let the kids play.
It would seem that Jasson Dominguez's homer was very much WIN METHOD.
Pitching wise for today, Abreu and Krook did excellent work.
While I was glad to see the 9th inning Dominguez HR, I had an odd reaction to the game itself. It was the first game I've seen under the pitcher/batter clock, and I was bothered by a kind of mechanical, routinized quality to it. Some element of classic baseball mind-gaming seemed, deliberately of course, to be missing. You know, the pitcher gets ready to throw, but the batter decides to go for a stroll. The pitcher torments the tense hitter by walking around the mound. That whole routine I've enjoyed since watching my first game in 40's.
German with his second start today. Opening day just over three weeks away.
Walt Belamy, the entire joe-bama/commie MALADY administration and those who support them are all the creme-de-la-creme of of liberal democrat political scum.

New emails hve revealed that Dr. Anthony Fauci commissioned a scientific paper in February 2020 to “debunk” the Wuhan lab leak theory for the origin of the COVID pandemic.
When Fauci spoke at a Coronavirus Task Force press briefing in April 2020, he cited a paper titled “The Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2” to claim that the lab leak was uncertain. No disclosure was made by Fauci that two months prior he commissioned and had final approval on that very paper, which was written with the specific agenda of “debunking” the lab leak. Fauci even pretended to not know who the authors of the study were, just that there was going to be a paper available coming to that conclusion.
Why hasn't Fauci been executed for the murder of millions of people across the world because of his corruption and lying about the Chinese Virus he commissioned.
Yankees win 9-2. German three solid scoreless innings. Judge three run home run.
Torre when interviewed during game, hinted Judge in left field for Wednesday game, Cabrera will come in for Bader in center field, and maybe a couple of other surprises.
So many kids with so much talent. Just have to hope the ones you keep turn out to be the best.
winstheonlystat, nothing is going to happen to Fauci. He is a card carrying member of the liberal democrat scum cabal.
Yankees have an off-day Tuesday, 3/7.
will-i-am, Cole is starter Wednesday. His second start.
Both LeMahieu and Volpe had good games offensively and defensively. Make a pretty good middle infield combo.
Off day, play golf, go fishing, relax by the pool. Just take your mind off baseball for a little while. So, Hicks is on the golf course. And on the first hole, just like missing a fly ball for an error in the first inning of last nights game, he misses a two foot putt for an error.
Ziggy Mann, that is so funny. You started my day off with a laugh.
Ziggy Mann, 😊🤣😊🤣😊 Good one.
Dominguez, Volpe, Peraza, Cabrera, Pereira, all look very capable of playing baseball at the MLB level. How soon is another question and will be based on how Yankee management wishes to proceed with each one of them.
Hicks is a problem, and that in itself is a problem, he is not the answer.
Hicks is on the skids and is on a downward path. Every game Hicks plays prevents one of our potential young stars from playing. That is a recipe for disaster and makes the team worse. Let the kids play, bloom and grow.
Trump Vows To ‘Abolish’ Department of Education After Schools Find Zero Students Proficient In Math.

Ziggy Mann, Laughed and loved your post.
Maga 2024, 10 million liberal democrat voters is a about how much he lost the popular vote by in 2020.
Tomorrow's game should be interesting and maybe a little bit of fun.
All fans, if you are able, try to watch Yankee game tomorrow at 1PM.
Grosner, and not one of the ten million a proof positive ID voter, plus many more.
Tomorrow's game will be broadcast on YES.
The problem with who plays at the MLB level in modern baseball is too much of a business/economic decision. Meaning, young players get held back in minor league ball for a longer period of time. It is what it is. As an example, Hicks 10M, IKF 6M, and Donaldson 20M, are holding back three youngsters, so the Yankees can save some money down the road by stunting the MLB years of the youngsters.
Rumor has it, Kiner-Falefa to Dodgers for a un-needed outfielder. I do not minding losing Kiner-Falefa, but not for something of no value. Unless the Yankees, dumping his 6 million dollar salary is the reason. I would rather get some minor leaguer who may, even if with a remote chance, turn into a MLB player.

You remove Hicks and Kiner-Falefa with any Cabrera, Peraza and you can go all the way. Adding Volpe in a few months with more AAA seasoning, and Donaldsons future decline and you are even better.
This Yankee team is strong and getting stronger.
Cole looks fantastic. He got a haircut. Makes a world of difference. What a hunk.
Cole with an excellent second spring start. 3 1/3 innings, 57 pitches, 7 strikeouts, 0 runs.
Yanks lose 4-0 today. No one hit. Cole solid again in second start. Cabrera with defensive play of game making a diving catch coming in on a line drive in centerfield. It was his first game in centerfield. He can play seven positions at a very high level and his enthusiasm for the game is second to none.
Schmidt makes his third start of the spring in tomorrows game. So far he a one good and one bad start.
My actual statements on Donald Trump:
“I hate him passionately.”
“We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights; I truly can’t wait.”
“We’re all pretending we’ve got a lot to show for it, because admitting what a disaster it’s been is too tough to digest. But come on. There really isn’t an upside to Trump.”
In my opinion, the post made by "Tucker Carlson" is a fraud post made typically by liberal democrat gutless coward. This is what the scum liberal democrats do. They destroy, lie, and try to hide who they really are.
bigbadwolf, I was just reading the garbage post and your post popped up. You are right, the lefty libs have no status. They exemplify the garbage of America.
I mean...the above are actual quotes from Carlson. You guys read the news, right? Can't ignore reality, whatever your opinions may be.
Guys, we do get a lowlife degenerate posting here every once and awhile. They use name of personalities and post fake left wing media fake news. Ignore them. That is how the left wing scum works. Swamp scum.
You see the follow up from Putnam County Conservative. It is the same fraud. You see how they work. One guy, different fake names, a fraud post, backed by another fraud post.
The liberal left wing democrats must be feeling the walls closing in on them. They are getting desperate. They will say anything and their buddies the corrupt fake media will back them all the way, until they are all wiped out.
FACTS::::::
Cable News Ratings Tuesday March 7: Fox News Scores 6 Times More Viewers Than CNN in Prime Time.
Fox News prime time soared to over 3 million average viewers on Tuesday night.
The very strong prime time number was anchored by Tucker Carlson, who brought in 4.14 million total viewers as his show sparked controversy on Monday night for his Jan. 6th coverage.
Fox prime time doubled MSNBC’s average of 1.49 million total viewers and brought in more than six times the viewers of CNN.
Maybe the liberal scum will learn something if they start watching FOX NEWS regularly.

Ortega and Calhoun getting a lot of playing time.
So what, Tucker Carlson privately sent text messages saying he hates Trump passionately, mocked Trump's business failures, said he couldn't wait for him to go away and admitted Fox was pumping out crazy election lies.
Fox News is a for profit enterprise that attracts viewers by stoking rage and lies on a variety of issues.
This was already clear, Tucker Carlson admitting it in writing doesn't surprise me.
How will the viewers/suckers being conned react? Probably by just turning up the volume on their TV to listen louder to some story about a migrate caravan in El Salvador or how Critical Race Theory is being taught to pre schoolers.
Nothing will change.
No question, Boone is letting everyone play. He and the Yankee team will have roster decisions to make.
Grosner, from what I see and hear, much of the statements reported from Carlson were taken out of context. Yes, context does matter.
Fox News must be doing something right. Ratings wise (viewership), they are burying every other network in existence. ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, etc. It looks like most people want the truth and facts that the other networks OVERWHELMINGLY, lie and or makeup and or coverup.
Unfortunately, I agree, nothing will change, unless a great and massive upheaval occurs.
Zhaire, Fox is doing a lot right to get ratings and money. Unfortunately, it involves stoking viewers tribalist instincts with sensationalism and lies. It has nothing to do with "news".
Here is some Carlson context. Yes, he really hates Trump and goes on air each night playing a false character because it makes him millions. And millions eat it up.
“I hate him passionately,” reads one text sent by Carlson to a colleague. “What he’s good at is destroying things. He’s the undisputed world champion of that. He could easily destroy us if we play it wrong.”
“We are very, very close to being able to ignore Trump most nights,” Carlson wrote in a message just two days before the January 6, 2021 attack on the Capitol. “I truly can’t wait.”
Yankees get beaten up today, going down 11-7. One young pitcher gave up 6 runs in 1/3 of an inning and that was the game.
Grosner, I believe we see things quite differently. Yes, Fox is doing a lot right. Mostly, telling the truth. Viewers are leaving the liberal 'fake news' networks in droves, because they are seeing and hearing on Fox, facts and pictures that they are not allowed to see on the other networks. The other networks are complicit and allies of the liberal democrat scum destroying trying to destroy America. As I write this right now Fox News 4pm's Neil Cavuto is talking with Fauci and has been for 15 minutes now, allowing Fauci to explain his involvement with the Covid corruption. Fauci is proving himself to be a liar and a fraud. Fauci called CDC Director Roberrt Redfield a liar for telling the truth regarding Fauci's involvement with the Covid corruption.
Not so good new.....Carlos.Rodón was diagnosed with a mild strain of the brachioradialis after experiencing discomfort during a March 5 start against the Braves, in which he permitted five runs over two-plus innings. Rodón said that he pitched through a similar issue last May with the Giants. He is not expected to resume throwing until at least March 18, and will begin the regular season on the disabled list.
Lou Trivino (right elbow ligament sprain) s expected to miss the rest of Spring Training and likely the first month of the season after being diagnosed with a mild ligament sprain near his pitching elbow. Expected return, sometime in May.
Zhaire. you correct about FOX NEWS. They tell a far more fair and complete brand of reporting than any of the other networks. People across America are getting fed up with the direction of the country. As more and more of them learn the truth about the FOX NEWS network and tune in, they don't leave FOX. The finally hear the other side and then make up their own mind. That is why the FOX NEWS network rating are soaring. People only need to hear the truth.
It looks as if both Schmidt and German will be in the starting rotation to start the season.
More bad news. Bader is dealing with a left oblique issue, and is being tested. Update forthcoming.
Fox News personalities admit in private they are LYING to you and they HATE Trump.
If you enjoy those lies and don't mind playing the sucker then enjoy!
Louie Louie starts tomorrow's game. We are losing bodies every day.
No one should jump to conclusions about any Fox News personnel. Do not lump all the people in one basket. Fox on air personnel consist of news anchors, opinion anchors, financial anchors, there are also paid contributors representing both sides of the aisle, and there are guests who represent both sides of the aisle. Unlike other networks, Fox gives many opinions for all sides and lets you decide individually. The vast superiority Fox has in the ratings for every hour of the day tells you all you need to know that the public trust Fox more than any other network. The people who do not watch Fox News are the ones who are being fooled, misled, and being led astray.
Opening day March 30th. Just 20 days to go.

I wonder what Boone gets out of playing so many players at so many different positions so often.
Guy Padikian, Boone may just be wanting to give guys as many at bats as he can. Baseball athletes at the highest level should also be able to play multiple positions in my opinion.
Louie Louie with a decent arm building outing today.
4IP, 4H, 2R, 0W, 3K, 54 pitches, 39 strikes. The 2 runs were solo HR's.

Yanks lose both games today. Go down 3-0 to Pirates and 6-3 to Phillies.
You want a left fielder, give the position to Dominguez and let him play come hell or high water. Judge in center, Stanton in right. Cabrera backs them all up. Plus sadly Hicks. End of story, just do it.

Steve(winstheonlystat), I would love to see Dominguez start the season with the Yankees.
Volpe and Peraza need to start the season in the lineup also. I really hope the Yankees can pull off a trade to get a couple of guys off the 40 man roster.
Can you imagine what the infusion of three rookies would mean to the the team. Speed, talent, desire, ability, all would go up. Excitement for the fans would be enormous.
Hicks is a pathetic useless loser, and needs to be kicked off this team immediately. Hicks misplays a fly ball into a double. MLB, officially doesn't give errors on misplayed batted balls, which in itself is a disgrace. Hicks, also struck out embarrassingly with men on 2nd and 3rd with less than two outs, which is a disgrace as a hitter. Can you believe he is playing for his job. Should be a simple decision, chuck him off the team forever.
Volpe with a double and HR today, both to right center.
Hicks with a softly hit single. Then he gets picked off first base immediately. Hicks has completed the trifecta so far. Fielding failure, hitting failure, and baserunning failure.
3-3 game today. Yankee pitching strong. Mainstay bullpen arms had great day. Volpe offensive star.
This is going to be a season to look forward to. Watch, as each rookie makes his mark. Hope it's sooner than latter. But you never know what this organization will do. It's not like the olden days, when the only thing that always mattered, was winning.
Don't forget people, Higashioka and Torres are playing in the world baseball clasic. Right now, with all the injuries to catchers, Higashioka becomes very valuable. Torres, not so much.
Going back to Hicks' putrid defense on first inning fly ball. It was an easy fly ball to catch. He was there to make the play. Just had to reach out and catch it. It's like he couldn't be bothered, like he could care less about this team. I'm not trying to go too far into the "you can see it in his eyes" realm here, but he seems beyond checked out in the outfield. It's bizarre. His mind is somewhere else.

Worst player in lineup is Hicks. Nice rookie infield in all four positions.
The Redsox announcers were talking about Hicks early in yesterday's game--saying how good he is a golf--what with being a scratch golfer. Well he is not a good baseball player--so let him go play golf.
Yankee minor leaguers go down 1-0 this afternoon.
Joe Pepitone, a powerful and popular player who spent eight seasons with the Yankees during the 1960s, passed away on Monday. He was 82 years old.
A Brooklyn native, Pepitone debuted with the Yankees at the age of 21 in 1962. After the team traded Moose Skowron following that season, Pepitone became the Yankees’ everyday first baseman as well as one of their best run producers. From 1963-66, he clubbed 104 home runs, made three All-Star teams and won two Gold Gloves.
Pepitone replaced a hobbled Mickey Mantle as the Yankees’ center fielder in 1967 and 1968. Once Mantle retired following that latter season, Pepitone moved back to first base for the ‘69 campaign and earned another Gold Glove.
We were pretty good friends when kids. Got some really good ticket to games in the 60's.
Cole starts tomorrow against Toronto. Five innings? Maybe more?
Vince/Brooklyn, I've heard many nice things about Pepitone, he was not perfect, no one is, but he was a good man. Then there are the losers of life's lottery, who will demean a dead man.
