OT: MLB Thread Part XIV: Only One New York Team Matters :(

[darko]

Great job by development as well. He fell to 32 because he did have holes at the time.

Had some serious contact issues at the time.

What Judge is doing is unreal..

What Brian Cashman did is even more unreal.

Anyone know what Brendan Ryan (went in the Castro deal), Shane Greene (Didi Gregorious), Jesus Montero (Pineda) and John Ryan Murphy (Aaron Hicks) are doing?

Definitely.

Only five teams in baseball have a +46 run differential or better.

The Yankees just pulled a +46 in five games.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Judge, Sanchez, Betances, Severino, Didi the new "core" with options like Bird, Hicks, Montgomery, Torres, Frazier, etc...

Add a top of the line pitcher to that.
I dont know if the Yankees have enough pitching.
Tanaka has to fix his mechanics. His stuff is flat.
FLAT!
CC can give innings.

They've got a kid in aaa that is almost ready. Remember, this wasn't supposed to be happening yet. This was supposed to be the 'first wave' of kids, none really expected to do much but adjust to MLB. Next year, when the 'second wave' comes in should have been the start of building towards this dominance. Instead, the stars have somehow aligned and its happening.Right.Friggen.Now.

Severino gonna be the Yankees future ace IMO.. but I wouldn't mind him having to be the "2" this year, with Pineda the 3, CC the 4 and so on, if Tanaka doesn't get his **** together.

Chance Adams.

I'm really worried about Severino's long term durability. Overthrowing the fastball and throwing so many sliders is just a recipe for an elbow explosion.

I'm hoping the Yankees can snag David Pertersen tomorrow provided that Beck doesn't some how fall to them. Big lefty college arm who should move through the system very, very quickly (not end of this year quickly, but sometime next year quickly.)

I'm hoping for Petersen as well, but he's moved up boards I think.

 

[GoAwayPanarin]

I've seen him mocked as high as 13, but most have him going to the yankees or after.

I have no idea what other teams' draft boards look like so we'll see tomorrow. I just hope they stay away from HS arms.
