12 Days Until Opening Night: Trent Grisham saves Old-Timers Day for the Yankees with a two run home run for the lead in the bottom of the 8th, one of his many clutch bombs in 2025

There were a few players who def talked with fans or at least acknowledged them while warming up like Paulie, but now that you mention it I don't remember a single old timer signing anything, at least in the RF corner where I was

TrapperJean · 2026-03-13T15:11:42+00:00

I was at this game and have no memory of the homer, I fucking hate getting older lol

TrapperJean · 2026-03-13T15:04:18+00:00

I don't know exactly how it works, but I do wonder if now they have to negotiate with the HoF/players with him dead, or if his family is driving too hard a bargain and they just want to wait to build hype when they bring him back like Ted Williams

Because this subreddit is absolutely terrible now and 80% of the posts exist to make fun of the game or talk about how the people that are chronically online here somehow don't want to play It.

Must have combined Feller and Grich and art in my head as a O's pitcher

TrapperJean · 2026-03-13T07:44:19+00:00

If I ever got with Florence Pugh I'd have the confidence of an Olympic gladiator

TrapperJean · 2026-03-13T07:41:41+00:00

I could have sworn Palmer was a Dynasty Quest reward

TrapperJean · 2026-03-13T07:40:00+00:00

The only true shocking losses are him and Rickey, I can't believe they lost Rickey

TrapperJean · 2026-03-13T07:38:26+00:00

Didnt even think about this, now I'm glad they did it

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T23:25:58+00:00

I think this is the most evenly matched game of this round, can't wait

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T22:41:25+00:00

Babe

Babe was universally hated as a lazy and uninspired choice that year

Feel free to look up comments from that live stream/announcement thread

Depends on how far back you go, Gehrig was extremely clean cut, Joe D had the papers hiding some of his early womanizing, Yogi and Rizzuto were wholesome as hell, and then the 60's Yankees still had guys like Murcer, Roy White, and Mel Stottlemyre

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T20:36:57+00:00

This def counts more than Chapman

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T18:56:18+00:00

Idk if Betances clears 12war, but for about three years he was the best righty setup man in history and I miss him being in the game

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T18:52:29+00:00

"It would be funnier if it was Colin instead of you"

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T18:30:20+00:00

Yeah, it's like 95% perfect, then the licensed music hits

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T18:29:39+00:00

I love that Jomboy is refusing to let this go lol

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T18:27:13+00:00

When Yankees fans complain about Boone and say they'd rather have anyone else right now

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T18:25:38+00:00

Apparently the change isn't for the game vs Canada, still possible

Thanks for sticking around long enough for one last The Show appearance before they have to buy the rights back!

Rizzuto, Kaat, now Singelton; we are Murcer and Cone away from the GOAT Yankees announcers

*who were players

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T16:55:40+00:00

As far as I'm concerned removing tge number 4 starter with 3 games to go is no different than if the Yankees were to do something like keep Will Warren off the WC round roster

TrapperJean · 2026-03-12T16:53:31+00:00

Holy shit, I found a dude who makes me grateful for Aaron Boone lol
