And Red Sox were just no hit tonight!

Haha great timing. 8-)

Good that fan base deserves it, Bruins dont advance past the 1st round tonight and the Sox finally lose and get no hit. That fan base needs to be brought down a little bit. Hopefully the Redsox come down some and the Yankees creep up on them having Andujar getting more comfortable and Torres joining the mix, just get that rotation in gear, one game at a time.

Really easy to root for Jordan Montgomery.

Torres getting the call up, should give the Yankees a spark.

Seems like we’re getting Andujar and Torres starting after all.

Hopefully we don't have to see Wade and Walker play for a while

Walker is headed toward Chris Carter territory, although not nearly as bad thats how bad Chris Carter was. Wade is reverting into what he is. Might as well see what you can get for Walker he can still help out a team in the NL and the Yankees would pay the rest of his contract most likely (1year 5 mill), with Wade send him down and have him as insurance or include him in a trade for a starter. Thats why you can never have too many players because injuries factor in and more then likely someone isn't gonna perform.

Who would you put at first?

Tyler Austin definitely deserves more playing time at 1B. Hitting .283 avg with 4 HRs, 9RBIs, and 13 hits in 13 games played.

Until Bird comes back Tyler Austin can play 1B, and Drury can when he comes back, got Adam Lind in the minors for insurance.

It's best option at this point. Drury apparently has some really bad migraines. Yankees weren't aware of this? Dude has said he can't even see sometimes and plays like that.

It's just funny how somethings work out. Must be destiny.

So, lets say Dury is heals before Bird. What is the proposed bench? (outside of backup catcher)

I'd assume Wade goes to minors. He just hasn't hit enough in this opportunity. Torreyes too?

Torres at 2B, Andujar at 3B,
Bench = Walker (can play 2B,1B), Drury (3B, 2B, 1B, OF), Austin (IB, OF)

And when Bird comes back, Austin to the minors?

That seemed like the obvious move.

What happens when Drury gets well ?

Torreyes down? Austin? ( guess depends on Bird's health)

Its gonna be crazy figuring out the roster then you have to factor in Frazier as well hes about to start rehab games.

With the way Torreyes is playing, Drury can go to the 60-day DL for a headache or stomachache or a cold or a hangover.

Man they are really promoting the **** out of Gleyber on the pre-show right now. Really feels like a big deal.

Can’t believe the day is here.
