Distracted by Hair: The 2017 New York Yankees

Judge is a mountain of a man. He hit one so hard off the wall in the corner today the karem took probably 15-20 feet right back to the O's left fielder and had to hold for a single.

Pineda in Dr Jekyll form today

sanchez out for a month with grade 1 biceps strain

Feel compelled to bookmark dis thread despite not following the nyy since Brosius days

I did go to every opening day from 1983-1987 doe so there's that. I kind of enjoy it when they stink

So this season should be right up my alley

i don't think they're going to stink. and if they do, it will at least be in a they're-young-and-interesting way

baby blue? I'll never understand these color changes. Just play the game

those are for the children in the bar

lol
My reputation precedes me : )

just occurred to me that c.c. is the only guy on the yankees with any kind of connection with "the dynasty" (apart from girardi)? i mean.. if pitching alongside andy pettite during jeter's declining days at short counts. i dunno why i thought that, just kinda weird. i guess i always thought there would be SOMEBODY there. i'll feel the same when pedroia leaves the sox i guess.

Yeah I guess Girardi ... but it's time to put all that behind them

Like when Oscar Gamble left

brett gardner still lives

i'm not sure i'd put him in quite the same group, but he *was* their second-best player (7.3 bWAR!) in 2010. he's had a nice career

"Chase Headley leads the team in average, Brett Gardner leads in steals, CC Sabathia leads in ERA and Michael Pineda leads in strikeouts. Love these young Yankees!"

- Ben Carsley, BP

i kind of love this yankees team

why is that

they're young and fun!

how can you not love judge

judge's home runs yesterday looked like they were going to be singles, they were soooo low. he broke the stat cast record for exit velo at like 112 point something

119.4!

http://m.mlb.com/video/v1332141383/balnyy-judge-lines-a-tworun-homer-to-center-field

Austin powers one! . . . Romine, so fine.

i'm all in for judge

Retire his number now

the yanks can't be stopped!

It's like 1995 all over again

Didi is back, Gary is coming back in the next couple weeks. This feels real.

judge will hit a wall soon but i think they'll be in the conversation late this summer for sure

I dreamed I brought my kids to every weekend home game

judge is 6th in the bigs in fWAR

i don't think giant space aliens should be in the majors

that explains why thor keeps getting hurt

Judge is going to be Ryan Howard in 4 seasons.

in the long run, everyone is ryan howard

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/aaron-judges-amazing-april/

speaking of ryan howard

is a .482 ISO good? asking for a very large friend

ALL RISE

Are you at the game?

My elderly dad got a chuckle out of this picture and since I showed it to him he keeps asking me how that huge guy for the Yanks is doing.

how can you not love judge

he's a yankee

baseball truth bomb

@darenw
Aaron Judge's double in the 2nd was hit 119 MPH... 2nd hardest ball hit this year. Just behind his 119.4 MPH HR. He hits baseballs hard.

smh man

yankees score 10 runs like 16 hours after winning an 18-inning game. love this team

k3vin ok

lol

haha

managed to break the record in his final at bat!

aroldis has been trash this year. after last year's playoff performance i was thinking the yanks signed him at precisely the wrong time (and the cubs got vv lucky that he didn't torpedo their season.)

had the cubs lost game 7, the aroldis deal would look pretty bad. flags fly forever tho

After today’s start, here is Jaime Garcia’s line with #Yankees through four starts:

19.2 IP, 13 ER, 22 H, 15 K, 13 BB (5.95 ERA)

Fuck Detroit

yay Miggy

knock Romine's head the fuck off next time

LOL chase Headley's jersey says HEAD

HEAD with the SB

CC masterful 2night

32-39 since June 12

now in play for the 7-way WC tie

http://deadspin.com/well-here-are-the-yankees-and-red-sox-bickering-over-t-1798688517

so dumb. i love that it's framed as some kind of challenge to nunez's masculinity that he bunted instead of swinging away, because there's nothing more masculine than expecting someone else to take it easy on you when you're playing hurt

Sounds like CC needs a drink

Aaron Judge, the new Roy Smalley

suck it h8rs the yankees are fun and cool now

minus chapman

fun and cool child killers

classy org

At least they finally have a good all-around shortstop.

I'm sure I'll never be able to afford actually sitting somewhere this would be a concern

Nice start by CC today. Verlander is obviously back on HOF track, and Sabathia may be too (still the shakier of the two). Plus he said this:

They're really lowering the bar on the player t shirts you can buy. Just saw a Betances one.

yeah a guy should have to make *five* straight all-star games before you can buy his shersey

mookie the yankees apologist, love it

;)

ikr? i feel soiled

I remember seeing Brosius tees back in the day and doing double takes
