Bellinger sits.

Escarra gets the night before the day game. Can the Yankees find their hitting game in a PCL park?

Can Warren pitch in a PCL park?

How much longer does Vivas have?

lost in the JDom 3HR game and another offensive eruption is Goldy going yard vs RHP.

should we sit him against some tough RHP? sure, but that is HUGELY influenced by the fact that we have so many excellent LH bats that it is hard to keep them all in the lineup

should we say that he is bad vs RHP? power stats are definitely low! but his BA is very meaningfully above average hitting vs RHP

I think if we did not have so many LH bats, I think there would be little reason to feel bad about him getting very regular ABs vs RHP

Grish goes hitless. JDom goes 3x outta the yard. who will Boone sit tomorrow to put Belli back in the lineup? unfortunately, I think all of us have a good idea

you've got a fine understanding of it all and I would not say otherwise.

I've been even more of a proponent for pushing Dominguez along than has been our good Andy Singer, but I think that we all must admit that the Yankees brought him to the Bronx with great haste simply because he has great talent and the team was in need of a lefty power hitter.

a shortened stay on the farm, and then a couple of lengthy stays on the IL. the kid entered this season with a couple of rough edges still needing to be smoothed.

and it has been apparent that the organization's management has been determined to see that they get smooth.

guys such…

"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.

Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."
