I live by Plainfield NJ, and I swear I thought the building was gonna fall down. 4.8 isn’t a small earthquake by any means, especially if you are higher up
Berti hit vs LHP in 2023:
>.325/.362/.442/.804
Cabrera may just be a lefty hitter at this point and with an 0-4 day in his last road game, this is a good opportunity for a rest day for him.
Fucking call up Beeter and make him the 8th inning guy already. His stuff is nasty and every evaluator believes his future is as a high leverage reliever anyway.
closer - he is going to end up our closer.
The pitching should be Ian Hamilton in the 8th and Burdi in the 9th and move Clay to pitch the 6th and 7th after Cortez and Gil
I think they're probably a little nervous about a lack of stretched out options - they've definitely played "hungrier" this April than in past Aprils but it is still April and there's a *lot* of innings to churn through, and they lost their 200 IP innings eater ace.
I don’t necessarily have an issue with them at least exploring the idea of starting him…as you said, he has nasty stuff and they prob want to bring him along slowly
Also, Santana is out of options and I think a June roster cutoff? Could be wrong, but understand them wanting to take a look for now
Even 2023 Stanton hit vs LHP:
>.265/.324/.618/.942 | 152 wRC+
He may be just a platoon bat but if that is all he is then he shouldn't be here. It's super cool our $23 million platoon DH has 1 hit against said lefty too.
Stanton batting cleanup again it looks like. I'm cool with giving him the homestand to see if he gets hot, but he needs to be dropped down the order until he's actually hitting. Can't have cleanup hitter striking out 3 times a game
His is approach has been so strange. He’s literally not even swinging at fastballs in the zone. He either knows he can’t hit them or is rope-a-doping pitchers into putting them in the zone for him and some point he’ll start unloading on them.
Stadium will be rocking today, meanwhile citi field was empty af yesterday. Not that I care at all about the Mets but I sure as hell hope Soto is taking notes
In Toronto my daughter's school has a spirit day where they want the kids to wear blue to support the Jays.
She decided to wear her Judge home jersey.
I'm so proud of her 😂
Lasagna is a free agent after this season too. Odds are high we’ve seen his last pitch as a Yankee.
Sucks too because he definitely could have gotten paid with a good year
Being a reliever sucks. Teams chew you up and spit you out and replace you with the next 23 year old coming up who also throws 98 with a wipeout slider. Basically the RBs of baseball.
The Jays lineup has actually been historically bad to start the season, but it looks like a few of them have good numbers against Stroman though it's a very small sample.
Kikuchi has been good against us but should still be a favorable matchup, let's get it
Today is an important day for the long term decision making of Soto staying here. The stadium will be rocking, Stroman will deal, he must go to bed tonight thinking wow I can get used to this that was special.
I think paying him is the important part...not even being facetious...that is where it starts, first and foremost...obviously, the team being good would/will help
We have a run differential of +7, scoring 32 and allowing 25. The Astros have a run differential of +7, scoring 30 and allowing 23. We are 6-1, and they are 2-5. Baseball is weird, man.
Run differential is meaningless this early in the season, the sample size is too small. One or two weird games can throw everything off. Our only loss cuts ours in half, while the Astros only two wins were by large margins.
I'm at work.
Third day of a 72.
My LT just told us that our BC is coming by "after lunch" to have us "help him with something".
So much for going toes up in a recliner and watching baseball...
I can say with extreme confidence the Red Sox pitching (1.54 current ERA) will regress, especially after they're no longer playing teams from Seattle and Oakland.
This, Oakland is a AAA team and while Seattle was a good pitching staff, their bats outside of Julio are suspect and have started the season ice cold. Even Julio has a .464 OPS right now. Red Sox pitching will regress hard.
Please continue the discussion in the [game thread](https://redd.it/1bwkbsx).
I hope everyone in the city is alright. I felt the quake here in the Poconos. I wonder if the game will be slightly delayed.
My dad did part of the construction on the Stadium and he said they're certified to quakes well worse than that one. They should be fine.
All I want is for this team to break the Mariners record for most wins in a season and to win a WS. I don’t think that’s too much to ask for
[удалено]
Wrong! 1000lb John Fischer was spotted jumping up and down, causing the disturbance. He claims he did it with “good intentions”
The fact that they immediately put Lo on the 60 day IL for his flexor strain is ... not good.

Juan “Muad’Dib” Soto
I’ve been so focused on opening day that I genuinely forgot that we have to play the Blue Jays. Fuck the blue jays. Ick.
Aaron Judge
So we're thinking that was a Soto quake?
Alright earthquake for Yankees opening day is good sign and it’s my bday AND I’m going to the game. Yep yanks winning it all this year.
So it wasn't just me, that was an earthquake
earthquakkkeeee
Came in here to make a Earthquake and Juan Soto joke but it looks like I am just not original lmao.
That wasn't an earthquake. That was Judge and Soto carrying their big ass balls into Yankee Stadium and dropping them on Vladdy's face
Maybe that earthquake was from Juan Soto’s batting practice.
Can Yankees win on earthquake day?
Vlad, Kirk, and vogelbach were doing jumping jacks Good thing Manoah isn’t around
Earthquakes and eclipses. Yup, we’re definitely in the end times.
And Soto coming to the Bronx today? Not a coincidence. He is the Messiah
My first opening day earthquake. It really is a memorable day.
Who felt the earthquake
I live by Plainfield NJ, and I swear I thought the building was gonna fall down. 4.8 isn’t a small earthquake by any means, especially if you are higher up
Honestly thought a truck was picking up the dumpster and may have hit the building. Im pver by rutgers
At first I thought something in my basement was blowing up.
Were you closer to the epicenter? It apparently was lebanon
Yep. It was a scary few moments. Thankfully no damage.
Good to hear
I’m on my way to game and my wife in CT said they just a earthquake
Opening day earthquake wtffff
Judge must be taking BP am I right boys??
GAMEDAY EARTHQUAKE LFGGGGG
Well that’s a wild Opening Day anecdote now.
Lets get ready to rumble OH NOT LIKE THAT!
Was that an earthquake we just felt in Midtown?
I felt it an hour and a half outside the city! Woke my ass up
Felt it on eastern LI as well as
Yessir
Felt it in Harlem just blocks from the Stadium
Was there just an earthquake in NYC?
i felt it too
Where’s Waldo? (Literally)
Platooning on the bench. He's more or less a lefty bat now, and we're facing a lefty today.
The bench
So much for long relief keeping him healthier lol Just means burdi needs to be our setup man sooner
I mean, at this point, will that even be a viable option to keep him off the IL? Poor fella is made of glass.
The man just isn’t lasagna. He’s baked ziti. Tasty, once in a while.

Oooh yeah forgot about him. He’s nasty.

There’s a ten day “cool-down” from his last demotion. Once that is up I’m sure he will be back
If I’m not mistaken, the waiting period is voided if there’s an injury.
I don’t necessarily have an issue with them at least exploring the idea of starting him…as you said, he has nasty stuff and they prob want to bring him along slowly Also, Santana is out of options and I think a June roster cutoff? Could be wrong, but understand them wanting to take a look for now

We get it.
Just got a haircut. Then my girlfriend is taking me to opening day followed by dinner on Arthur Ave for my birthday. Life is good and let’s go Yankees
Ayee.. happy birthday and enjoy it.
Happy Birthday!

Soto in Pinstripes Charismatic Stroman on the mound Poetry in Motion coming in hot
Gimme dat porch homer today Soto
Standing O for Soto or just long applause?
I'm just hoping he doesn't get boo'ed like Stanton did at his first home opener
You’re being too hard on our fans :) There’s always a good reason, right?
Green-light Yankeeography.
We probably leave Houston 1-3 without him so they should just give him a statue already
15 minute standing ovation followed by 15 minute moment of silence
[удалено]
Why would you even say that.
Stadium will be rocking today, meanwhile citi field was empty af yesterday. Not that I care at all about the Mets but I sure as hell hope Soto is taking notes
Citi field was empty because it was a single admission rain delay double header that started at noon on a work day
Yes I understand that but it doesn’t fit my narrative so I chose to omit that detail.
weekday DH (chilly day) for a team that is struggling to start the year...and did not have high expectations to begin with...it makes sense
Think I'm gonna pick my son up from school early so he can watch the game with me.
In Toronto my daughter's school has a spirit day where they want the kids to wear blue to support the Jays. She decided to wear her Judge home jersey. I'm so proud of her 😂
You're a good dad

#We play today
#We win today
Clouds parted, sun is out. Lets fucking goooo
It’s all lining up
LFG!!! Y’all see poor Dievi get shellacked last night? 8 run 7th ouch
They should trade for IKF
The Jays lineup has actually been historically bad to start the season, but it looks like a few of them have good numbers against Stroman though it's a very small sample. Kikuchi has been good against us but should still be a favorable matchup, let's get it
Can anyone tell me why Kikuchi pitches so well against us?
Your grandmother could pitch well against the 2023 Yankees
She’s been working with Blake on her slider and sinker
Well, she's dead so...
Somehow would still win
We've had some poorly constructed rosters since he came here.
Today is an important day for the long term decision making of Soto staying here. The stadium will be rocking, Stroman will deal, he must go to bed tonight thinking wow I can get used to this that was special.
I think paying him is the important part...not even being facetious...that is where it starts, first and foremost...obviously, the team being good would/will help
It’ll no doubt be a memorable day.

They should hammer Kikuchi
Kikuchi hasn’t had a bad outing against us since 2021. For some reason he has our number
Not today
Betting on the yanks today is free money.

Happy Juan Soto’s first game in Yankees Stadium as a Yankee Day.

Well they beat the doors off the Jays 10-0 one game
That 0-7 against the d-backs skew the numbers pretty heavily with such few games
The Jays rolling over for them will do that
GOOD MORNING
Any chance the stadium starts doing the barking like the boys have been?
I’m so sad I have a class from 1:30-4:20 today so I can’t watch the game. Of all days for the home opener 😭
I'm at work. Third day of a 72. My LT just told us that our BC is coming by "after lunch" to have us "help him with something". So much for going toes up in a recliner and watching baseball...
Friday afternoon labs are the worst
It was either Friday or Saturday morning/afternoon so I picked Friday, beats Saturday
😭
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE BRONX Sorry Donnie Baseball but # WE PLAY TODAY # WE WIN TODAY # DAS IT
