one problem with having a team with mediocre power is we never fucking stole bases.  If you are going to suck at power you better be able to steal bags consistently, especially with players like Pena.  That fucking tool should be running every single time he gets on 1st base like all the top base stealers are doing.  He has the 11th best sprint speed (really like 5th when it comes to the number).....Ohtani is fucking 174th (29.8 to 28.1)  and has almost 60 steals.  Pena stole 20 fucking bags.    

Meyers is our 2nd "fastest" guy (28.9) and stole 11...hell Tucker (26.0) is slow as fuck compared to these guys and stole 11 in his shortened season 

Jeremy Pena should have no less than 40 steals per season at this point where they have made it easier to steal.  

10000%. This is an organizational issue. If Melton ever arrives, I doubt they give him the green light, even though he's 81/94 in the minors so far in 227 games. That comes out to 67 attempts in a 162 game schedule. Altuve had 65 attempts in 2014 and before him Bourn had 64 attempts in 2010.

Remember that time the Yankees won their LDS series and their fans starting chanting “WE WANT HOUSTON” and we swept that ass in the LCS?!

Lilshep took a knee to face on play at home while playing catcher. Removed mask and kod slid knee first into his head. How he wasn't knocked out or eye sight damage is beyond a blessing. Stayed in game and had a base hit to score go ahead run later in game. Told him he may have to change number to # 7

Bones heal, pain is temporary, chicks dig scars. Atta boy.

So, we went a little long on part 1 of the three paths available to us. Sets the predicate for next two. We talked about basically the value of everyone in the organization and what we could stockpile of we stripped it all out and sold it for parts.

Was it Pete Rose's great grandkid running the bases? Going to get the chicks at school today. Happy that Lil Shep is ok, prayers answered for sure.

This why you need to make one of his games. Kid has alot of confidence in himself as you know. On Saturday other team had hit a hr and was rounding 3rd where lilshep was playing. Kid was saying I'm freddie freeman. Late in game same Kid comes up to bat with lilshep pitching. Got him to pop up to 2nd with bases loaded and 2 outs( lilshep came in with bases loaded). As he was walking off mound lilshep told the kid you aren't him, cause I'm that guy.

If that happened to Diaz, New York would intervene and call him for facial obstruction. Runner safe, 180-day suspension on the catcher.

That would be awesome. Know he'd be thrilled. He was at owners house last night with trainer and Dr. They are great people.

No season that ends without a Yankees title is altogether unsuccessful.
