FYI Yanks have 3 of their top scouts at tonight's game, closely watching Santana.
WFAN 660 has mentioned that Yanks have potential interest in Santana and rumblings that they may be the 3rd team in a potential blockbuster that would send Price to Atlanta, Santana to the Yanks, and a package of young players and prospects from the Braves and Yanks going to the Rays. Also mentioned that Minor would be in deal going to Tampa and Balfour to Atlanta.
Jason's power has been absent all season. It would be great if he were hitting .260 with a .350 OBP and .450 SLG. He's so capable of that. Where's his power gone?
Its painful to look at a lineup where only 2 players have slugging % numbers above .400... especially when power is supposed to be our strength... at least there's one more when Gattis is in there...
Don't know what the hell happened in the third inning, but other than that Ervin has been dealing.
As Nancy Reagan once said just say no. Offense is what we need
Gotta send Gerald here.
I think Gerald can be forgiven if he begs off workouts the next few days. That was an intense HBP.
so where'd the offense go? Six hits in two innings then nuthin'. Same pitcher, same hitters, and it just goes away.
Probably shouldn't be complaining since usually we don't hit this guy at all.
