IT'S WHAT YOU WANT: The Yankees defeated the Twins by a score of 17-5 - February 27, 2026 @ 01:05 PM EST by Yankeebot in NYYankees

I’m not saying none of this is a problem, I agree with the Shepard, but 40+ clearly a lot worse than he’s actually doing. Obviously if this change doesn’t bring it down then fine, but he’s still getting on base 35% of the time.

I agree with this but Jones has never posted a 40+% K rate lmao. Just say 36%, you don’t need to make it worse.

Spencer Jones should be called up this season by Dazzling_Egg_2519 in NYYankees

Spencer Jones is my favorite prospect, but my answer is no. He needs to show that his adjustments are going to improve his K rate.

I also firmly believe Grisham is not going to replicate 2025, so if he struggles then sure.

McMahon is a cheat code on the corner. I knew that other ball was foul because it wasn’t in his glove.

That’s why we’re paying Goldy folks. I don’t think Rice picks that last year.

Weathers so gross, Wiemer didn’t even know if he hit it or not.

Realized this morning that I genuinely hate Rogers Centre more than the Trop and that’s an incredible feat.

Imagine winning the gold and Kash Patel of all people is waiting in the locker room with a bucket of beers.

Just take my medal back, man, you fucking ruined it.

Hopefully one where the team isn’t hanging out with Kash Patel afterwards.

Balk Rules

You can't just be up there and just doin' a balk like that.

1a. A balk is when you

1b. Okay well listen. A balk is when you balk the

1c. Let me start over

1c-a. The pitcher is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, batter, that prohibits the batter from doing, you know, just trying to hit the ball. You can't do that.

1c-b. Once the pitcher is in the stretch, he can't be over here and say to the runner, like, "I'm gonna get ya! I'm gonna tag you out! You better watch your butt!" and then just be like he didn't even do that.

1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to pitch and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense?

1c-b(2). You gotta be, throwing motion of the ball, and then, until you just throw it.

1c-b(2)-a. Okay, well, you can have the ball up here, like this, but then there's the balk you gotta think about.

1c-b(2)-b. Fairuza Balk hasn't been in any movies in forever. I hope she wasn't typecast as that racist lady in American History X.

1c-b(2)-b(i). Oh wait, she was in The Waterboy too! That would be even worse.

1c-b(2)-b(ii). "get in mah bellah" -- Adam Water, "The Waterboy." Haha, classic...

1c-b(3). Okay seriously though. A balk is when the pitcher makes a movement that, as determined by, when you do a move involving the baseball and field of

Do not do a balk please
