Man I'm in 2 $300 fantasy leagues and invested in Gary in both. I'm so upset right now. I still see Miggy Cabrera in his game. I personally don't want him catching the next decade. I want that bat in the lineup every day at 3B if he could.

1b maybe, he's way too big for 3b and not fluid enough. I guess if you don't give a ish about D you can move him there.

we already forgetting about Bird? I'd let Sanchez catch for now, but yeah eventually he'll have to move. Bird's defense isn't all that great, maybe he'd be better there.

OMG. If you guys haven't been to Yankee stadium they have some really good new food options there. During my lunch break I had bought a Smores Bread Pudding from Mighty Quinns by section 133. OMG!!!!!

Do they have anything healthy yet? That fried trash is gross.

They have plenty of healthy options if that is what you're looking for. Off the top of my head they have:

Melissa's Farmers Market at Section 121 has fruits and salads I believe.
Bareburger: Has the Guadalupe (vegan) burger @ section 133
Toyota Terrace has Vegetarian Baos
There is the Noodle place, sushi place and a Hale and Hearty Soups location in the Food court at 127.

Other options are available but I won't learn them all for a while. In beginning I am only going to remember the unhealthy stuff which tastes so good.

Mighty Quinns is not fried, it's delicious brisket but it definitely ain't the healthiest option. Reason why I am saying it, I am a man in my 40s and I am getting to that point where my friends and I do more discussion on cholesterol than we do on players' stats! :lol:

So I DO appreciate the healthy options at new Yankee stadium. Going to the game on Sat.

But tonight, Severino is back on the mound. Yanks need this young man to get going. Also Greg Bird is back.

I'm going to keep putting my name on Severino becoming a legit starter in this league. If that 3rd pitch is being used he's a really good piece.

Yanks will have to PRAY that Severino turns into a legit starting pitcher because James Kaprielian (age 23) is undergoing Tommy John surgery.

Cashman and co were hoping he could pitch in the second half, LAST season but they had to shut him down due to arm problems. This was the guy that Cashman was hoping, develop into a front line starter. Now, every thing is suspect because he won't be ready for another year and a half IF all goes well.

Kap got Wheelered. We won't see him in the big leagues for another 3 years.

Severino is really our only hope, but I love his potential tbh

Maybe the Yanks should go with high upside athletic live arms instead of proven near ready for the big leagues pitching prospects for a little while?

Stop doubting Severino!

Thats some good baseball to sweep the Rays.

Severino 7 IP, 2 ER, 11 K's! Impressive stuff.

I love their Smores Bread pudding. And their Burnt End Sandwich is damned good as well.

Pretty promising start from Sevy if he can build on it. This kid has great stuff.

Tanaka settles down and gets his first win. Yanks 6-4?!?!?

Quietly, the Yanks have put together a 5 game winning streak....

Starlin Castro has been a different player since last Summer. I'd like to see his splits since June of last year. I really think he's back to what he was as a neophyte with a little more pop now. Even if his OBP isn't great, he can be a guy that gets 190 hits this year.

CC pitching really good to start the year

Greg bird has been terrible

still amazes me that we got him for nothing. Really nothing. Adam Warren (who's back with us) and Brendan Ryan.

CC's reinvented himself over the last season or two. He could still pitch another year or two, if he really wanted to.
