Yankees don't want to give up on:Betances is garbage. Why is he still on the team?
Form The Golden Boy to The Hated One in a few years. It's sort of like Joba.Betances is garbage. Why is he still on the team?
For someone that does not active;y follow the yanks, what happened to/with Betances in the last couple years?
I knew about the arbitration stuff, but didn't know what happened with him on the field. ThanksLong story shorter: Things got heated in an arbitration hearing two winters ago with Randy Levine saying he's not a closer and calling him Dylan instead of Dellin. Betances' command has pretty much become non existent since the 2nd half of last year. Combine that with his inability to hold runners on; every walk and single turns into a double, triple, or in Kevin Pillar's case, a run scored on a steal of home. Either he can't fix his mechanics or it's all mental, but he looks completely lost out on the mound more times than not.
Torreyes has always been a good utility guy. He'll spray singles and that's about it, but sometimes that's all you need. The fact he's so versatile is why he's so good. You need guys like him, and he's a really good utility guy.Torreyes sucked as recently as yesterday lol
Hicks is a very gifted player, he just had trouble putting it all together in Minnesota and has struggled to stay healthy with us. He can play all outfield positions, is a switch hitter, can hit decently well and has some power. He was drafted as a five-tool talent, and you can see why. He'll never be a true 5 tool player in the sense that every one of the tools is a plus, but not a single one of his tools is "bad", more good to very good rather than great. He's unquestionably starter material, it's just crowded in our OF right now. I'm guessing he'll be our starting CF next year after Gardner's contract ends.Hopefully Hicks can kick-start our offense. Top 3 hitter for us last year when healthy.
That's the rub. He's had three oblique injuries in a season plus. At least he's hitting since coming back. He was putrid after the second injury last year.Hopefully Hicks can kick-start our offense. Top 3 hitter for us last year when healthy.
If it makes you feel better, Angels paid Pujols 26 mill last season to put up -1.9 WAR in 149 games.
Game one of the double header postponed
If the second game gets postponed imma be so mad
