Where is this hitting coming from?

"The Yankees saw something in Gregorius when he was with the Diamondbacks and thought he could be a good player."

Yeah, Pat. It's called "he was a highly touted prospect and considered a good future starter when he was with Arizona." He's off to a stupid-crazy-good start so far in a small sample, but so is Luke Maile. Every year prior with the Yankees, he's been what he should've been expected to be: A good defensive shortstop with a league-average-ish bat (that suddenly produces a crazy # of HRs). Let's not go nuts and pretend that New York are geniuses for finding some scrub nobody SS in some team's system and turning him into a mega-star.

I remember hoping the Jays would get Gregorius. I think I had him on my fantasy team for a few months (Colorado Tulo was injured - shocker) when he was a rookie and he was good.

I like this guy, Solarte.

I like this guy, Solarte.

He just made my blue Budweiser glass light up while I watched the Raptors game!

 

[The Nemesis]

He's just good at baseball

But is he a baseball player?

 

[Brock Boeser Laser Show]

Offense is pretty damn amazing right now and that's despite Donaldson (injury), Smoak, and Travis not having the best of starts.

Last year it was basically Donaldson, Smoak, one hot month from Pillar/Travis and not much else. Much different feeling this year with a balanced lineup and better depth in the upper minors to cover for injuries and poor performance.

 

[as Pure as Evil]

Oh no you didn't lol

 

[The Nemesis]

Well, any time you can end up in the company of Pat Borders, Eric Hinske, and JP Arencibia...

I just looked up Stanton's numbers. I had heard about Yankee fans getting on him already and I was curious about why. I was thinking: "Man, if the Jays had of went out and got Stanton I would be celebrating into May, regardless of how he played."

I was kind of surprised to see that, other than his out-of-the-world performance last season, he hasn't exactly been a dominant player. He's been very good and, to be fair, had some injury seasons, but I guess I expected something else.

I have no doubt he will be good, but the Yankees may not have a superstar player with him.

 

[Longshot]

Such a weird game. Jays are up 8-5 and it still feels like the Yankees got every single break in the game.

Osuna looks unhittable this year

 

[Del Preston]

Back to .500 you go.

 

[Longshot]

That's a big win. One run loss last night, come right back with a nice one.

 

[Suntouchable13]

Wow, what an April so far. We have not seen this kind of start in a long time. Almost 10 years. Although, that 2009 season went in the crapper really quickly.

 

[nilan30]

I like this guy, Solarte.

Me too. He just has so much fun out there.

 

[Nineteen67]

What a great day for Stroman to hit his stride.

 

[ShaneFalco]

Wonder how long they keep Morales around
Sunny day, beer is cold, Leafs tonight (although I'm not expecting much)...... a good day to drink beer I think is my point

 

[Advanced stats]

What a great day for Stroman to hit his stride.

Not watching...how's he looking?

 

[Suntouchable13]

Great, groove one to Judge 3-0. It's almost impossible to keep these guys in the park if they connect at all. If they don't pull it, they can just flick it over the fence in right. f*** me.

 

[shaner8989]

Great? Guys garbage

Absolutely blew the game

 

[ShaneFalco]

Luuuuukkkkeeee
dropped it

 

[canucksfan]

Jeez Maile is having a rough inning

 

[shaner8989]

Worst inning this team has played

Maille cant catch a f***ing ball
Stroman has allowed 8 straight runners
Gibbons is a moron

 

[stickty111]

Height doesnt measure horrendousness by Stroman
