OT: MLB Thread Part XX: Title incoming.

[LeetchisGod]

This is an exit velo extravaganza

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Severino has a 1.99 ERA. 2nd in MLB behind only Degrom

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Severino 2 hit the sox for 6 innings without his slider tonight.

 

[2Leetch_94]

Yeah, I'm sure saving a few more pitches to get the final out there is really going to help his arm down the line.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Severino destined for the bullpen tho

 

[darko]

Yeah, I'm sure saving a few more pitches to get the final out there is really going to help his arm down the line.

He never should've come out for the 7th inning. Boone went soft on him.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Will say it again. And again and again.
Theres not one player in baseball I'd trade Severino for

 

[darko]

There are positional players I'd trade Severino for. In the right situation.

 

[darko]

#3 for Hicks

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Hicks gonna hit 20+ drive in 70+ with GG defense and were gonna hate him over 50% of the time lol.

 

[Machinehead]

It's a hat-hicks

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

we've literally come very very close to hitting the double digit mark in HRs tonight.. 6 + very deep fly outs

 

[2Leetch_94]

With where the Yankees are right now, the only player I'm trading Severino for is Mike Trout. How long has it taken the Yankees to develop a legitimate ace that has the right mentality for New York? Completely overpowering but can get deep into games because he doesn't constantly hunt for the strikeout. Has turned into one of the biggest leaders on this team - the perfect example of this is when he went right up to Torres in the dugout and gave him a pat on the rear end after an error during one of his starts. There's really no aspect of his game not to love honestly. He can even pitch well no matter who's behind the plate catching.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Boone using 4 pitchers in a 11 0 rout lol

 

[Sarge13]

Cool that they beat the sox on the anniversary of this game:

July 1, 2004: Derek Jeter makes catch, dives into stands

I was at this game, first Yankees game I had been to in ten years(I was living out of state). It was surreal to say the least.

 

[Cassano]

As much as I want Cashman to make a deal yesterday, I understand what a tough spot he's in. Most teams are going to come in with a "Torres or we hang up" mentality, and because we're the Yankees, we'll get our balls busted over it. Basically, everyone's gonna pull a Pittsburgh.

Can't wait for DeGrom, MadBum, and Snell to go to competitors for pennies on the dollar.

I think Andujar is a good starter for a controlled ace, with the season he's having.

 

[Machinehead]

I think Andujar is a good starter for a controlled ace, with the season he's having.

He's not a prospect though, he's our 3B.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

New York Yankees
Osiel Rodriguez, rhp, Cuba (No. 5 prospect)
Antonio Gomez, c, Venezuela (No. 14 prospect)
Denny Larrondo, rhp, Cuba (No. 43 prospect)
Agustin Ramirez, c, Dominican Republic (No. 48 prospect)
Mauro Bonifacio, of, Dominican Republic
Juan Carela, rhp, Dominican Republic
Maikol Escotto, ss, Dominican Republic
Marcos Cabrera, rhp, Dominican Republic

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Unless we're talking about someone like Snell who is already very good and has a bunch of control left, Andujar shouldn't even enter the conversation.

yep

Are these potential international signings?

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Are these potential international signings?

All agreed already.

 

[RGY]

All agreed already.

4 top 50 prospects is great...especially an arm at #5

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

Yankees generally do well with the lower ranked guys internationally.

I think Sanchez is the only highly touted IFA they've signed that worked out.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

4 top 50 prospects is great...especially an arm at #5

They're also signing Kevin Alcantara (10) and Antonio Gomez (11)
