[CygnusXS]

They moved Aybar?????

And they got a fringe prospect in the deal?????

 

[The Elite]

Also, hilariously out of touch Sportsnet finally says what fans have known for years:

JOSH THOLE IS FUCKING USELESS

Would the MLB allow us to have Dickey hit instead of Thole? He's probably a better at the bunt. Hell, he can probably hit better as well.

 

[harSon]

Leaving for the train to head up to SF in 30. Good luck Giants fans

Spoiler

naw, not really - hope it's lopsided :3

.242 for Thole

.333 for RA in 2013

checks out

 

[SRTtoZ]

Ellsbury please run right out of Yankee stadium and onto the thruway.

DIDI!

 

[Lexxism]

Game over. Let's hope the Jays won't get sweep tomorrow.

 

[Silver Arrows]

well fuck I guess I didn't see

 

[Windu]

Fringe is probably too good for him. I guess he might be a backup catcher one day.

 

[CygnusXS]

Back-up catchers are good to have and the Braves system is definitely thin on them.

 

[Future Foundation]

Is Estrada's run support that bad?

 

[Windu]

I wouldnt expect a swanson or aibies call up. Mississippi will be in the playoffs and trying to win a championship. So maybe late sept call up.

Yep. Didnt expect them to ge anything for Aybar anyway.

 

[Silver Arrows]

Is Estrada's run support that bad?

i guess

tbh I think not to write things off so fast, but whatever, most jays fans will write things off if we don't score 20 runs by the third

 

[Windu]

Well nvm!

Swanson on wednesday

That's got to mean Albies too then, no?

 

[Windu]

That's got to mean Albies too then, no?

you would think so. maybe they don't have room on the 40 man roster.

 

[CygnusXS]

you would think so. maybe they don't have room on the 40 man roster.

Chase D'Arnaud isn't worth anything.

 

[BigAT]

Gary Sanchez getting in on the Baby Bombers action.

 

[Windu]

Chase D'Arnaud isn't worth anything.

yep. maybe they want to let peterson play more. I'd let peterson and garcia split time at 3B and call up Ozzie though.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Albies will most definitely come up when the rosters expand. He'll be up sooner if they can trade either Beckham or d'Arnaud.

 

[Windu]

The Braves will promote Dansby Swanson to Atlanta tomorrow. Ozzie Albies will not be promoted.

Albies will most definitely come up when the rosters expand. He'll be up sooner if they can trade either Beckham or d'Arnaud.

no way they can get anything of value for those two.

 

[CygnusXS]

Aybar just got flipped into a maybe-kinda-if-you-squint prospect, so anything is possible.

 

[Windu]

one thing i could see, they feel Swanson is the one that is ready and Albies not. Swanson's biggest problem imo was that its his first full season and he just has gotten tired down the stretch. But, probably just don't have room for Albies at 2B right now. /shrug.

Aybar just got flipped into a maybe-kinda-if-you-squint prospect, so anything is possible.

heh true.

 

[Lexxism]

Is Estrada's run support that bad?

No. It's more like Jays offence is bad. Really bad.

 

[CygnusXS]

The best way to clear the roster crunch would probably be to get a Markakis trade done, then Kemp->RF, Peterson->LF.

 

[Marz]

Lol at Didi Gregorious being the best power hitter on the Yankees.

I miss the Soriano-Giambi-Matsui-Sheffield days

 

[JoseDFrog]

I can only get so hard.

 

[Joe]

Holy shit the Yankees are going to the playoffs

 

[SRTtoZ]

Sanchez is DIRTY.

 

[Malo]

Oh my

Dat youth movement

 

[Lexxism]

They fuckin need to scrap this 6-man rotation. Disgusting

 

[Dominican Power]

McCann got one foot out the door.

 

[BigAT]

Gary Sanchez: Bringer of Rain.

 

[SaintR]

Damn you Yankees....I cut the cord this year to a degree...I was resigned to just reading and occasionally listening to baseball. You going to make me actually pay for Yes....

 

[Malvingt2]

Well nvm!

Swanson on wednesday

So Dansby Swanson is now in the majors. Shelby Miller is not. wow

 

[ISOM]

Damn you Yankees....I cut the cord this year to a degree...I was resigned to just reading and occasionally listening to baseball. You going to make me actually pay for Yes....

me too.

 

[Dominican Power]

Mookie Betts is unbelievable.

 

[SRTtoZ]

McCann got one foot out the door.

I'd be shocked if he wasn't traded to the Braves in the off-season.

 

[Chase17]

Mookie Betts is my hero

 

[jello44]

Alex Bregman with his first major league home run!

 

[zroid]

i hope they just call the game, no interest in seeing this team shit the bed for 4 more innings

 

[Malo]

i hope they just call the game, no interest in seeing this team shit the bed for 4 more innings

Nah.

I need more Sanchez dingers.

 

[jbug617]

damn E-Rod hurt. He seemed to turn a corner after he got sent down.

 

[Malvingt2]

I'd be shocked if he wasn't traded to the Braves in the off-season.

not happening....

 

[Doogdogg]

Oh fuck. E-Rod is our better starter since the break.

 

[Malo]

not happening....

Lol ya just traded for Kemp. Anything is possible.

 

[Malvingt2]

Lol ya just traded for Kemp. Anything is possible.

Malo is not happening... are the Yankees going to eat the majority of the contract? also remember who the Braves moved for Kemp...

 

[Malo]

Malo is not happening... are the Yankees going to eat the majority of the contract? also remember who the Braves moved for Kemp...

They'll eat some, def not the majority. McCann still has some value.

David O'Brien ‏@DOBrienAJC
#Braves boss Hart says Swanson 'not quite ready' but doesn't expect him to be 'overwhelmed' in MLB

 

[chicagocubsfan]

Jason Hammel has the lowest ERA in the NL since the ASG. Great turnaround for him after last year.

 

[3N16MA]

Nah.

I need more Sanchez dingers.

To think he was no longer considered one of the Yanks top 3 prospects not too long ago. Looked like he could have been traded. Turned it around last season and here he is.
