Good point. I had forgotten. That means this is more a bet on JJ than positional versatility. That makes it even more interesting.

JJ was brought up in the post I quoted.

Some bad calls already behind the plate

He was gently correcting me bc I was wondering if they felt they needed JJ as backup 1B or if it was a preference. Pointing out Diaz could be 1B shows this is just management liking him better as a bat than Chaz right now. 

[cabowabo 4451]

Legitimate no hitter through 2.

He’s been working at LF as well.

Will never understand how it takes an ump that long to get the gear in 

 

 

[WBT 20415]

Cool story from Blum about how George sent a case of champagne to the clubhouse after the '03 no-hitter.  I bet Hal didn't do that yesterday.

How long does it take to replace one man-bunned ump?

Au contraire.

Yanks might need to steal some signs. 

[WBT 20415]

Dubon!

[kevwun 15623]

Ha, Pena legitimately can't slide.

[clapclapclap 9000]

New guys doing their part.

[txduck87 981]

Two out run scoring hits are borderline erotic.

That is pretty cool by George. I doubt George would do that now, after the Astros have killed the Yankees seasons in 2015, 2017, and 2019.

Bottom of the lineup showing up today

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Great play by Pena 

[HtownHorn 14468]

Holy shit, Pena. How we have missed him.

[Guadaloopy 10918]

Don’t often see a three hop throw get the runner at first.  

[HtownHorn 14468]

Shit, I thought that was crushed. Change up.

[kevwun 15623]

That play was made possible by LeMaheiu being slow as shit.

[Gut Wagon 8052]

By my rough calculations, more than 500,000 babies have been born since NY got a hit. 

[TonyTexas 10481]

Dubon, with 3 years of control, should  replace Diaz, who’ll be a FA, on the next year’s roster. 

[kevwun 15623]

It's a no brainer.  Utility guys who are hurt all the time aren't very useful.

[tx 3 putt 76314]

Park one Tucker 

[tx 3 putt 76314]

He’s out

That's nasty Nestor to you

Can I get an @Helobious heat check?

Someone tune in to the pregame show and recap click’s comments please 

Just saw Dusty’s pregame talk, meyers is the starter and there won’t be extra playing time for Chas 

[Scraps 13540]

How do you sleep in and miss the best pitcher in the league??

Because it’s us that had the series with them circled right you fucking limp-dicked  shit for brains. 

[runthebone 7932]

Good job, Urquidy

[Wulaw Horn 18972]

At my in laws visiting not watching the game…

is there more fuckery going on behind the dish?  Last 3 balls all showed up as strikes on gamezone. 

[HtownHorn 14468]

Score more runs. Urquidy needs a nice 20 minute rest.

Yes. Urquidy is getting squeezed. It likely cost him 15 pitches so far.

[kevwun 15623]

This has to be one of the worst umpire crews.  Every game the home plate ump has been shit.
