2) I agree, I'm not overly impressed with the 3-9 record, but I am enthused by progress, and by Conforto's home run today and Piscotty's two out double scoring two RBIs in the 5-2 win over the Milwaukee Brewers. First, a 5-1 win over Team USA, now a 5-2 win over the Brewers.
3) Giants, I think we'll win at least 86. Happy to have a small wager, if you like... ;)
A friendly, “I told you so” is about as far as I go re: gambling. Last year, Lex received a “well done” for calling the number (within one). This year, I would love to post a salute to your foresight….
Aaron Judge has one home run this spring. Conforto has three in three games.
Desclefani threw three shutout innings with one hit against (literally) an MLB All-Star team. Rodon has a left forearm strain, is on the shelf and won't face the Giants.
Just sayin'... ;)
Hope Rodon is ok. He claims he had this last May and pitched through it.
An auspicious start to a six year, $162 mms. contract. Yanks should get two good years out of him, at least. He had a great year for the White Sox in 2021 (13-5) and a really good year for the Giants (14-8). Prior to those two seasons, he was 29-33 between 2015, and just like me, he is no longer in his 20s. Still, I wish we'd kept him. But now, he plays for the other team. I hope both he and Judge fail miserably, though likely they will have really strong years.
