Pagan will definitely be on the DL. Span will probably be on the DL by then and Blanco will be handling CF. Pence will still be on the DL and Parker will probably still be in RF. If Williamson remains a AAAA player, Ishi might legitimately be the best option for LF. A shitload of injuries led to him starting there in 2014.

Why the fuck do the Yankees think it's okay to play in a fucking little league sized park?

I knew right field was extremely short but so is left!! It's like 314 and 318 (I think) with normal sized walls. Didn't old Yankee Stadium at least have a normal left field and pretty deep left center?

Same exact dimensions as the old stadium. BUT, the wall is lower than the old stadium. I think 8 feet down from 10 feet high and the angle the wall goes out from the right field foul pole is completely straight instead of wide. So technically if you hit the ball say, 15 feet from the pole fair it has a slightly shorter distance to travel to become a homerun than in the old stadium.

Visiting teams are free to use the right and left field walls too.

I agree but this time I think I agree with them. Last 2 seasons, fangraphs could suck my dick because I knew they were wrong. I've seen enough of this season to know the meme magic has ran out. I think there is an outside shot at WC2 but only if the rest of the AL sucks dick. No way we get over 88 wins.

Too many things are going wrong all at once. Morales is completely lost at the plate, gordon is completely lost at the plate and now he is dead anyway, moose is dead, the rotation lacks any kind of depth and is performing even worse than at it's worst of last year. We can no longer carry Yost's shitty decisions with sheer babip luck and outlier bullpen performance. Most of the minor leaguers we brought up are playing at replacement level but that wont be enough.

Fuck them, they are frauds fucking sell. Also fuck Hal, Hank, Lonn, Randy and the rest of the Steinbrenner cronies.

During this historically bad 6-20 stretch, 14 of the 20 losses were by 1-2 runs.
