OFFICIAL 2018 New York Yankees Season Thread: First Home Series 2-2

Stanton flicked his wrist and hit a line drive to the wall .... whoa ..

 

3/4 swing & he drove the ball 300 something feet

 

Tanaka back to bartending ....

 

Russy gettin hacks

 

Stanton loves that RF gap

 

Once he gets rollin in Yankee Stadium ...

 

Austin walk-off. Everyone trying to make this team .

 

Let's go get Arrieta for 1 year.

 

These dude and their cars in spring training .. nuts

 

He’d be nice. But at this point, I think they may want a massive amount of space for deadline deals to pull off something big.

 

Tyler Wade is nasty with the glove. He'll definitely here opening day

Stanton looks like **** in LF btw

It's gonna be interesting how we handle that ...

 

Yankees considering having Judge leading off.

 

Highest OBP on the team so it makes sense.

You'd have to put Stanton 2nd though so he has some protection.

 

Him, Wade, & McKinney have been impressive.

Have to think Frazier is traded soon.

 

Went to my first ever spring training game this week while in Florida, got to see the Yanks play the Tigers in Lakeland.

It was a pretty close game for the most part, but the younger guys blew it wide open in the last two innings. Billy McKinney was the most impressive, he hit a three run shot that nearly left the stadium. It's going to be really interesting to see who makes the team, there's a lot of great prospects deserving of a spot.

 

I read that there was a fight in the stands the other day.

 

I've always wanted to take a weekend trip to Tampa for a ST game, but I've never acted on it. Maybe next year.

 

Damn those are some nice quality pics

 

Montgomery 5th starter.

Sevy / Tanaka / Gray / CC / Montgomery
Green/ Warren / Kahnle / Betances / Robertson / Chapman

Sanchez / Romine
Bird
Torreyes
Didi
Drury
Gardner
Hicks
Judge
Stanton

Leaves like 3 position spots and 1 bullpen spot
Position it’s between : Andujar, Ellsbury (Start on DL probably), Austin, Wade (Torres will have to be a mid season call up)
Bullpen: Shreve, Cessa, Adams

 

Yeah he’s probably in the mix. But I’d rather just have Austin around. More versatility position wise. But if they went Lind instead, no big deal, but at that point you might as well shop Austin because there’s no spot anywhere. Even with injuries, you could have Romine play some 1st.
