As much shit as him and Hicks get on this sub ( rightfully so) it is good to see them both acknowledge that they had terrible years and are trying something different
Anyone else notice that Castellanos just homered to deep left as announcers were discussing the hoskins and harper injuries lol. This man’s timing is unreal
I think it's funny how they were talking about IKF gaining weight to help his power and yet he still goes up there and swings like he has two strikes every AB.
Cashman 100% thought the competition would be between Peraza and IKF. I still think it's at best a coin flip that he's not the SS. Would be a risky unYankeelike move if he's not.
# HOME RUN!
Gleyber Torres homers (2) on a fly ball to left field. Anthony Volpe scores. Aaron Judge scores.
Pitch from Michael Plassmeyer: 0-0 Four-Seam Fastball @ 87 mph
Hit by Gleyber Torres: Launched 106.2 mph at 26° for a total distance of 343 ft
Top 4 - 8-0
Yankees
Volpe-Judge is gonna be the sexiest 1-2 we've had in living memory. Volpe will be setting the table for him for years, Judge may top his RBI total from last year without hitting more home runs with this dude leading off
Judges first order of business as team Captain should be to walk into that management meeting with fists pounding the table and tell them to put Volpe on the opening day roster.
### Single
Aaron Judge singles on a ground ball to left fielder Kyle Schwarber. Anthony Volpe scores.
Pitch from Aaron Nola: 3-1 Four-Seam Fastball @ 93.6 mph
Hit by Aaron Judge: Launched 100.5 mph at -12° for a total distance of 12 ft
Top 2 - 5-0
Yankees
# HOME RUN!
Andres Chaparro homers (5) on a fly ball to left field.
Pitch from Aaron Nola: 3-2 Cutter @ 86.8 mph
Hit by Andres Chaparro: Launched 100.1 mph at 27° for a total distance of 415 ft
Top 2 - 4-0
Yankees
Correction he's pitching sucks, he is hanging everything over the plate. Sure he just working on stuff but I wouldn't put too much stock in the Yankee at bats. Your mother could hit these pitchers
I’d be ecstatic with like .230-.240, 15-20 homeruns, and great defense from Donaldson. He’s gonna piss us off a lot and look lost a bunch, but he walks into a stat line like that, I’ll take it for his last year
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/121xcg4).
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Alex Mauricio replaces Matt Bowman.
The top of the ninth inning did not bring me joy
I guess shitty necklaces are back in style like it's the late 90s again? Never thought I'd see the day, but I should've known everything comes back.
Donaldson is HOT
Was that one of the Click and Clack guys one the radio commercial right now? (Obviously the living one.)
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Braden Zarbnisky replaces Jose Alvarado.
Is it me or has JD's new swing really helped
[удалено]
its his Spring Training too
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Jose Alvarado replaces Andrew Bellatti.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Matt Bowman replaces Tyler Danish.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Andrew Bellatti replaces Craig Kimbrel.
Danish needs to up his spin rate and extension if he wants a chance to pitch well
You know you’re trash when Matt Blake can’t save you
Danish may be the worst pitcher I have ever seen in a ML ST game and that's saying something.
Danish is definitely not making OD roster
At the rate of these injuries Danish is gonna end up starting a game.
How is Tyler danish so ass
did he just try to tag with his hand? lol is that interference?
Phillies announcer said Boone told him the shortstop decision will be made tomorrow
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Craig Kimbrel replaces Michael Plassmeyer.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Tyler Danish replaces James Norwood.
Cant get over how different Donaldsons stance is
He was so bad last year and I gave him a ton of shit, but I hope he's figured it out. Even the 2021 version of JD would be huge for this team.
As much shit as him and Hicks get on this sub ( rightfully so) it is good to see them both acknowledge that they had terrible years and are trying something different
Anyone else notice that Castellanos just homered to deep left as announcers were discussing the hoskins and harper injuries lol. This man’s timing is unreal
No stress games are nice.
Good for Castellanos that he can hit cuz he can’t field for shit.
The top of the sixth inning did not bring me joy
I dunno about shooting stuff at fans out of a hot dog.
Imagine walking in your row and get blindsided by a hot dog shot out of a gun
Not watching but saw the box score for 2 seconds (including opposing pitcher) and I'm pretty sure Volpe is gonna be the starting SS now
Phillies got a glizzy gun!?!? Thats wild
Kept the goose egg. Thanks, ball girl.
There's a Hicks joke here, but I'll refrain.
Girl shouldn’t feel too bad, only spring training
Volpe just destroyed a perennial NL Cy Young contender. Dude should be in the opening day lineup.
Volpening day or we riot
At the same time, shouldn’t the ball girl/boy know the basic rules of baseball?
Someone give her a shot at 3rd!
Lmao poor girl
Lol at least the ball girl is cute. …this took a turn I didn’t think it would take
She's probably like 16 you weirdo
What if the poster is 16?!
lmao the poor ball girl
Awww poor girl
Damn that sucks
Volpe almost has a cycle in 4 innings lol. If SS was a competition, Volpe has won that job by a MILE
I don't see how Volpe does not make this team as the starting SS. He sealed the deal today.
As a kid, I loved turning on 102.3 WBAB and listening to the Volpe & Anthony show
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: James Norwood replaces Randy Vasquez.
The top of the fifth inning did not bring me joy
Wow didn’t get the cycle what a bum!
Peraza's job to lose now.
Maybe next time.
Volpe batting ahead of Judge for the next 9 years is sex
I think it's funny how they were talking about IKF gaining weight to help his power and yet he still goes up there and swings like he has two strikes every AB.
Opening day Volpe SS Judge CF Rizzo 1B Stanton RF DJ 2B Torres DH Donaldson 3B Cabrera LF Trevino C You know you wanna do it Boone
Put Cabrera in the 6 hole to split up righties
Vazquez producing very good spin rates on his curve and cutter, to go along with the 93-95 heater. I like him
I realize theres a logjam in the infield. But.. I say Gley stay.
Keep him, it's not an unmanageable situation
[удалено]
Cashman 100% thought the competition would be between Peraza and IKF. I still think it's at best a coin flip that he's not the SS. Would be a risky unYankeelike move if he's not.
Still think there’s a decent chance that Peraza eventually becomes the Yankees everyday SS with Volpe at 2B
The top of the fourth inning brought me much joy
Yankees fans always complain about the offense yet are so eager to trade Gleyber away because?
Imagine the outrage if Yanks send down Volpe after this? Absolutely no way he isn't making the roster.
Would be embarrassing
Donaldson just missed another
Todays offense makes me a happy gal
I always love Gleybae.
Hells yeah
Sheesh gleyber turned on that one
The Wrath of Gleyber.
Gley community happy to see his dong out
Torres > peraza
\>>
Pls get a homer stantoni
I think Gleyber is gonna have a big year.
HAPPY GLEYBER DAY
Gleybey Y’all gotta stop disrespecting my guy
Niceeee
Official MLB Twitter gassing up Volpe too with some nice shots https://twitter.com/MLB/status/1639685976141307905
Gleybae!
Please don’t fucking trade gleyber
This. I like this.
It’s gleyber day y’all
Suszyn was so happy for volpe’s last hit She’s all in
Yeah no way he’s sent down
# HOME RUN! Gleyber Torres homers (2) on a fly ball to left field. Anthony Volpe scores. Aaron Judge scores. Pitch from Michael Plassmeyer: 0-0 Four-Seam Fastball @ 87 mph Hit by Gleyber Torres: Launched 106.2 mph at 26° for a total distance of 343 ft Top 4 - 8-0 Yankees
I don’t want to exaggerate but Volpe is going to win rookie of the year, MVP and World Series MVP
Volpe-Judge is gonna be the sexiest 1-2 we've had in living memory. Volpe will be setting the table for him for years, Judge may top his RBI total from last year without hitting more home runs with this dude leading off
When was the last time Yanks had two biracial angels hitting 1 and 2 in the order?!
Stanton. Judge. Both biracial.
Do we really want to give the starting shortstop position to a guy, who only hits singles, doubles, and triples in games, without a homerun?
Imagine not getting the cycle with 3ABs
Thats not the kind of hustle thats gonna cut it in the Bronx.
Lord Volpemort
🚨 ANTHONY VOLPE CYCLE WATCH 🚨
Volpe a homer away from the cycle he’s a machine
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Michael Plassmeyer replaces Albertus Barber.
Vazquez has looked pretty decent against the Phillies’ regulars today
I don’t see how the Yankees can justify having a “SS competition” and not giving the starting SS job to Volpe on day 1.
I can’t dislike Turner. He was a beast during the WBC.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Albertus Barber replaces Trey Cobb.
IKF hitting the ball hard three times there
Interesting that Nola’s not back out. Have to wonder if he’s dealing with something.
They stopped contract talks right before the game. He’s “quiet quitting”
Team medics say: Nola has a chronic case of the Yankees. Highly contagious, seems to be spreading to the bullpen
It’s always 😂 to hear other broadcasts talk about us
Volpe makes me vorny
Judges first order of business as team Captain should be to walk into that management meeting with fists pounding the table and tell them to put Volpe on the opening day roster.
Time for a command decision.
Donaldson is so washed up
Yankees co-captain Josh Donaldson
Jesus, this Vásquez guy is _tiny_ 6ft 160
13y/o me thought I was Y O K E D posting them stats
If this was a regular season game Boone might’ve just gotten chucked out of the game on that beautiful 1-2 curve being called a ball.
Maybe JD found something with his new swing…..
We can only hope.
I’m so volped rn
Volpe is making me forget that half of our rotation is on the IL. The hype is real
3/5, not half.
Glass half empty!
What’s Cashman and Boone’s excuse gonna be now if he doesn’t make it? Volpe has a triple and double off one of the best SP in baseball.
[удалено]
ever hear the phrase "line drive in the box score"
Don’t retire Nola, he was doing fantastic!!
That video where they tell Volpe he's a Yankee is gonna hit
$20 says they’ll have Judge do it
“Let him know, Captain.”
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Trey Cobb replaces Aaron Nola.
Judge driving in Volpe gives me the special tingle
Agreed, like you can tell it's going to happen all the time moving forward
Good to see that teamwork in action.
Nice work, Captain.
The kid is ready.
SPEED DEMON ANTHONY VOLPE
Legit double this time!
### Single Aaron Judge singles on a ground ball to left fielder Kyle Schwarber. Anthony Volpe scores. Pitch from Aaron Nola: 3-1 Four-Seam Fastball @ 93.6 mph Hit by Aaron Judge: Launched 100.5 mph at -12° for a total distance of 12 ft Top 2 - 5-0 Yankees
John and Suzyn on the Volpe opening day bandwagon after the double.
Looking forward to hearing it.
Guy is raking against elite pitching
Not taking anything away from Volpe here. Nola is an elite pitcher, but he is not throwing elite pitches today.
Drunk on hopium take: Volpe got him rocked on the first pitch and he never found it
He doesn’t have his stuff but we are only 7 days away from him starting
10 of his 15 hits have gone for extra bases.
Volpe gunna fuck around and hit for the cycle
Volpe cycle watch
[удалено]
Yeah, the A’s and Cubs have it all figured out
“A’s rotation” isn’t exactly a flex And declaring Wesneski a stud this early seems presumptuous
Volpe is a god damn stud, will be a travesty if he doesn't make the OD lineup
At this rate Cashman and Boone have no choice. The fans will revolt if he doesn’t
Make him opening day SS already
#ITS HAPPENING
FUUTUUURREEEEEE
PRESENT
The Phillies broadcasters are so subdued. “And it’s another Yankees home run. *Sigh*”
Cuz Nola’s pitching like shit in his opening day tune up start.
What do you expect? They’re supposed to be bias towards their own team lol
I’m expecting them to sound like they’re awake.
Chapparo can hit. That was an off balance swing and that ball still got launched
Hopefully he gets dubbed Chappy to redeem the nickname and erase the history of the sweaty shitbag
Nola doesn’t quite have the feel for his offspeed stuff yet.
Chappy!! This kid is legit!
Nola not lookin so good right now
# HOME RUN! Andres Chaparro homers (5) on a fly ball to left field. Pitch from Aaron Nola: 3-2 Cutter @ 86.8 mph Hit by Andres Chaparro: Launched 100.1 mph at 27° for a total distance of 415 ft Top 2 - 4-0 Yankees
Donaldson is in the best shape of his life
I enjoyed the first inning greatly
Turner looks like a toddler that touches his face too much 😂
Top 5 in this Phillies lineup is a good test for Vazquez today.
The sonic boom produced by Volpe dashing to third has just hit here in the South West of England.
That explains the house shaking.
I’m here for the JD redemption arc
I tell ya, I was in the banish Donaldson camp but he has looked the part this Spring, or at least adequate and not a liability.
Trea Turner is what Cashman saw when he looked at Wade for the longest time
Expected BA of 1 on Donaldson’s homer.
2015 Josh Donaldson confirmed /s
At the game, that ball was *crushed* Also, Volpe is effortlessly fast. Just gliding around second with large strides.
Boy this pitcher sucks
He’s gonna sign a $200 million contract after the season.
Your 200million dollar pitcher just got taken out of the 2nd inning assholes
Nola is one of the best pitchers in the league
Little League
Correction he's pitching sucks, he is hanging everything over the plate. Sure he just working on stuff but I wouldn't put too much stock in the Yankee at bats. Your mother could hit these pitchers
JD, that was kilt
>kilt Apparently it was tartaned not tattoooed
Donaldson out here having me believe in spring adjustments lol
Josh “they called but i ain’t answer” Donaldson
Donaldson AL MVP and new AL HR King
Wow that was some kinda meatball
I’d be ecstatic with like .230-.240, 15-20 homeruns, and great defense from Donaldson. He’s gonna piss us off a lot and look lost a bunch, but he walks into a stat line like that, I’ll take it for his last year
Donaldson hit a piss rocket
