caulfield12 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) Seems weird to be cheering for the Yankees to beat the Guardians. Banks ERA down to a respectable 3.27 now. Joc Pederson must think he's going for mid to late 80's glam rock look but looks more like Star Wars cantina thug.

I just think if you're going to make trades you don't necessarily have to trade Pollack for a LH LF. They do have multiple ways of getting something LH in the OF.

I know Gallo sucks but at least he plays better defense and swings from the left side. Was thinking the same thing. Maybe you get lucky and Gallo returns to form by getting out of NY. If not, he’s still probably a better fit for this roster than Pollock since he can actually play RF and should be useful against RHP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they’ll look to move him this month. Whether they’d want Pollock remains to be seen as they might want a more substantial upgrade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They definitely are smart enough not to plug Pollock into their RF. (And I still can't believe they're recalling Jimenez to play next week.)

I'd be fine with that swap and bet on Gallo turning it around, and I'm not sure the Yankees are going to get anything better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maxjusttyped Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Gallo is much better defensively than Pollock and like 6 years younger. I'd love to buy low on Gallo because he would check off several different boxes for what this team needs, but I can't see the Yankees going for it unless the Sox add a 2nd piece that's pretty good.
