    Toro has had a rough week. That said, no one besides Tucker has been good on the bases. Straw and Springer have been okay. Gurriel has avoided stupid mistakes. Everyone else is a dumpster fire on the bases.

    Stanton being injured should surprise nobody. Judge being injured seems to now be the new norm... just like what some people here think of Correa.

    Torres impacts them similarly to what Bregman being out does for the Astros. And LeMahieu would be equivalent to Brantley.

    But the rest of their guys pale in comparison to JV/Osuna/Alvarez. JV and Osuna actually have a decent chance of pitching again at some point this year. Alvarez doesn't need to risk anything for this season and come in healthy next year.

    The best thing about this season is seeing what guys like Javier/Paredes can do vs big league pitching (after bypassing AAA) and getting Framber to throw more strikes and possibly break in as a 1-3 starter. They'll make the playoffs, probably play somebody like the Twins/Rays in the first round where its a total toss-up.

    That can also be read as the Yankees have lost to the Astros the last 3 times they have met in the playoffs

    Sure, but with all this ridiculous shaming goin on, Im gonna err on the side disrespect. No more benefit of the doubt to any of the national media.
