ProudMary July 28 Share July 28 26 minutes ago, DMK said: Marlins moved him to the outfield just last year, Jazz was a 2B before that for years. I'm aware, but he's never played 3rd (or 1st, for that matter) and those are where the Yankees need help. Gleyber's already been moved. I like 2nd and Short just as they are. I just see this as another boneheaded, desperate Cashman move. The Yankees need to strengthen the bullpen. Also, I hope Clarke Schmidt returns soon. It was a big loss when he was injured. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2463-mlb-thread/page/369/#findComment-8421427

I like 2nd and Short just as they are. Oh, if anything, the only other move Gleyber is making is to the bench. Jazz is probably his replacement for next year, Yankees will be letting Gleyber walk at the end of the year. But most likely, for this year, Jazz is a better bat than Grisham in center.

baldryanr August 6 Share August 6 If he's getting in on the first ballot then it'll be because of his statistical peak. Look at his 2012-2019 stats - that's up there with the pantheon level greats. Besides the three MVPs, he finished second 4 times too. Plus this isn't basketball, so the lack of playoff appearances won't be held against him that much.

shoregirl August 8 Share August 8 Pedro Grifol fired Grady Sizemore is the interim White Sox manager. You finally win a game and they get rid of the manager . I don't pay that much attention to the White Sox so I don't know how he was as a manager but it seems to me it's not really his fault that they were so bad. The GM and owners are not really putting a good team on the field. They have a couple very good players (Crochet and Roberts Jr. for example) but their surroundings players are not good and ownership doesn't seem like they care to put a better product on the field. Sizemore seems like a out of no where pick. Though it seems they also fired their bench coach. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/2463-mlb-thread/page/369/#findComment-8430302
