Didi is the best SS (he may never hit .300) we have had in years, Castro is more than adequate at 2nd. Hicks is not a part time player. Give them a chance. The team as a whole is sucking dirt! We have replacements in the Farm that could surprise everyone and some won't, but that's life!<br />If we are not winning, bring them up as soon as possible.Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-47411411808104590332016-06-03T14:13:14.401-04:002016-06-03T14:13:14.401-04:00You are correct Reed.

Many thought the Yankees were showcasing Judge in a trade which was why they let him play center field a bit but that obviously never came to fruition. He is not a center fielder. Not in the majors anyway. Hicks can play anywhere though and so can Ellsbury and Gardner making it a moot point thankfully.

Welcome to the site. I disagree wholehear...Matty, <br /><br />Welcome to the site. I disagree wholeheartedly. If the team is not going anywhere it makes absolute sense to call up their top prospects and let them get their feet wet now. Let them make the MLB adjustments now. Let them figure it out now while you have nothing to play for in the grand scheme of things rather than next season when Beltran is gone and you're relying heavily on the young kid.Daniel Burchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04212584396848733519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-8785216188243345132016-06-03T08:15:07.763-04:002016-06-03T08:15:07.763-04:00so then for a team so fixated at money coming off ...so then for a team so fixated at money coming off the books and waiting for contracts to expire, the only option is 1-giving beltran a QA (im sure he could get a 2 year contract, but would probably reject it to stay here), or sign someone else x3 years. <br /><br />OR...<br /><br />Run with Refsnyder? Get hicks at bats by rotating rest from AROD, gardner, ellsbury (like original plan), run with refsnyder as RF (he wont be as bad as beltran), and if it's a close game or what, sub in hicks for defense. Refs wouldnt have made that play yesterday. I think didi/castro would mess that up 9 out of 10 times lol it was pretty.Daryl https://www.blogger.com/profile/12405687520642126665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-50926781329819224532016-06-03T07:17:21.423-04:002016-06-03T07:17:21.423-04:00It doesn't make any sense to bring up judge no...It doesn't make any sense to bring up judge now. Yes he has been in triple A for almost a year now, however, he has not hit very much in triple A. He needs more time down there to figure things out, lower his strikeout rate and raise his average. It wouldn't be beneficial to him at all to get at promotion with a .230 average and a 25% strikeout rate in triple A. Considering those stats he has currently, his numbers in the majors would be atrocious and could ruin his confidence. Any promotion would be harmful to judge and the Yankees.

Then who do we have to play LF and CF, the guys do need rest once in a while.<br />Hicks is a better player than he has shown this year, for sure but, he needs to get something in the hit row very soon.Ken Reedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07134936968221887101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676591017018865408.post-64935381077723656022016-06-02T08:25:46.007-04:002016-06-02T08:25:46.007-04:00they really need to make the moves to get him on t...they really need to make the moves to get him on the 40 man and get him up here. We are going to need a veteran outfielder, because hicks is a piece of trash. we cant just throw judge there and expect him to start hitting pro ball after beltran leaves. He should be getting experience now.<br /><br />This is another mistake on yankees part. Who's going to come here for a 1 year deal? No one.
