George, a very ugly week up in Toronto for the Yankees on several fronts.
00:07
Oh, you can go on and on about this, right?
00:10
You know, Mike, you know, when I knew I was coming on,
00:13
I was going to be a calm Yankee fan.
00:15
And then I see the lineup maybe got posted a half hour ago.
00:18
I'm like, oh, here we go again.
00:19
All right, Jazz is still at third base.
00:21
They got Peraza playing second.
00:22
It should be reversed here.
00:24
I mean, it just infuriates.
00:26
That catch just lies to us, right?
00:28
It just lies to us over and over again.
00:30
He said during the offseason he wants the Yankees to be a more athletic team,
00:34
you know, better with the fundamentals.
00:35
Part of the reason why they didn't want Torres back is he made a lot of brain-dead plays, right?
00:39
And yet the analytics tell you over and over again.
00:41
I think Chris Kirshner of The Athletic posted a column on this that they are a much better.
00:46
I mean, it's not even close.
00:47
They are a much better team with Jazz Chisholm playing second base and anybody playing third.
00:52
It doesn't matter who because they're all terrible, right?
00:55
Peraza, LeMayu, you know, you want to bring back A-Rod, Nettles, whoever.
00:59
Or we'd be better than what they're doing right now here.
01:01
But they don't want to admit that LeMayu is a sunk cost, right?
01:05
They want to put him in the line, which is a joke.
01:07
He's got as much range as a daisy air rifle.
01:09
He can't move.
01:10
He can't throw.
01:11
And he may give you the best average of the players you have playing there, but it's a soft average.
01:16
They're all singles, right?
01:17
And every now and then he'll let you a double.
01:19
And he can't run.
01:20
He's not going to steal any bases here.
01:21
So it's just infuriating that they won't admit that this is not how it works.
01:25
And so I think they didn't know this, by the way.
01:27
Remember, during the offseason, they wanted to get Aronado.
01:30
They tried very hard to get Aronado, but they didn't want to pay the freight, which I don't blame them, by the way,
01:33
because St. Louis wanted to take on the full contract and add valuable pieces there.
01:37
And Aronado's is not worth that right now here.
01:39
So just a fury.
01:41
Actually, I was in a decent mood here.
01:42
And then, you know, I was like, oh, you see him doing this.
01:45
He keeps trying to bang that square peg into a round hole over and over and over again until the damn toy is broken.
01:53
All right.
01:54
And by the way, does Judge see a pitch to hit tonight or is Schneider going to walk him all four times?
