Known mostly for my Yankees minor league reports and updates!

Yankees, Devils, Michigan, Panthers (sigh)

MILB reports: https://tomkosensky.com
I am a Michigan fan.

I expected them to be good.

But this is ridiculous.

40+ point lead over Gonzaga??

This Players Era Festival is insanely fun.

Maybe Seton Hall is back on track.

Huge win for the program. The Maui is up for grabs.

Amazing that we are weeks into the season and they are the first unranked team to beat a ranked opponent.

Losing Whitlock a few years ago sucked.

But 99% of the time, there is no reason to panic over Rule 5 protection.

Most won’t be selected.
Most who are selected won’t stick.
Most who stick don’t become stars.

Yankees Notes: Rule 5 Primer - Tom's Sports Blog
As always, the Yankees have several Rule 5 decisions to make. Which prospects are most likely to be added to the 40-man roster?

Two possibilities:
1. MLB was naive to the fact that their players would start rigging certain outcomes;
2. MLB knew it might happen and didn’t care.

Neither is good.

What a bunch of clowns running this show.

NJ is a blue state, let’s make that clear.

But tonight was still a massive message. This was supposed to be close.

It was over before a few counties even started releasing their numbers.

The AP could have called it earlier if they wanted to. Glad they didn’t. But this was over quickly.

Great win by the Dodgers.

That is why I never liked IKF in pinstripes - nice kid who seems to lack some basic fundamentals. But people loved him because he made a lot of weak contact.

Off to the Hot Stove!

So the POS Aroldis Chapman, who walked out on the Yankees, vows he would never sign with the Yankees.

We don’t want you.

I do it as well sometimes.

But I love when baseball fans find the outliers who “figured it out” after 1,500+ PA while ignoring the most common outcome:

They never figure it out.

So the Yankees are blaming the infield coach and the hitting coordinators for Volpe’s issues, eh?

Desperation.

Smoltz:

ALDS:
“Toronto’s contact over the Yankees power…”. Emphasize it 2.2 million times.

ALCS:
“Wow, this Mariners power. Recent playoff history tells you that you want power over contact”
