He's made 3 horrible plays in CF. this year.  Just sayin.

At this point, it doesn’t matter.  Getz gave up a good prospect for Fletcher so he needs to see what he has in him.  He is turning 27 in three weeks so he has to pan out sooner rather than later if he’s going to at all.

It does suck that a guy of his size and stature can’t really play CF well since you want power bats in the corners, but oh well.

Seriously?  I don't care.  Andrew Benintendi has been making bad plays for 2 years now.  Gavin Sheets has made a million bad plays.  There is zero reason for Fletcher to not be playing in a 120 loss season.

Yes, seriously.

Grifol should have been gone months ago. 

How many people are losing money tonight?

Yankees really taking it to the Sox, as expected. 11-2 now.

Hey, wait a minute...

We might not score 8 runs the rest of the season so I'm enjoying this. 

Holy s%*#. 

An enjoyable baseball game. Let's go.

GRADYS BOYS GIVE A s%*#! 

That's what I'm talking about!

Latin infusion has been a straight up failure for the Sox

Grady’s boys, man

Baldwin has sneaky power. Could easily be a 15-20 homer per year kind of guy. Of all the rookie position players they’ve played this season he’s been the most impressive imo.

I don't understand how he's getting the ball over the fence

I don’t think he’s looked super overmatched. Just gotta lay off some stuff. 

i'm never betting on sports again and cutting luis gil from my fantasy team tomorrow 

Would not be surprised if this game ends up 11 - 8.

I have no issue with Fletcher being a 4th outfielder.  If he's a starter then you are probably losing 100 games

The Yankees should have to move to Sacramento instead of the As for losing this badly to the White Sox

 It's not something you see everyday in baseball.  Unfortunately the pen will blow this again.

They'd have to be really really bad to blow this one now.

Can't believe my eyes but love what In seeing

I'm late to the thread, but what is happening tonight? Just one of those random occurrences it seems.

13 baserunners in 4.2 innings, with only 2 strikeouts and 2 earned runs…

That’s a 2.31 WHIP.  Luck.

Yeah the Yankees must suck.

He’s still hitting .213 with a .548 OPS overall.  Talk about declaring early victory.

As if u ever wait to declare early defeat.
