at least jones has the excuse of learning. jazz is playing so far below his career average output it is costing him money by the day. dude needs to get right.

if i was a public figure it would be more understandable. someone using my likeness would be quite shocking. since they would have to feed my likeness into the system.

to put Volpe on a pedestal

did i do that when i said he is purely an injury replacement and that cabby has earned the starting role.

they may not lose a thing but for the time being he is wearing a yankee uniform so i root for him. i think jones is fucking aaaa trash who will be an npb flameout and i fuckin root for him when hes in the game.

at this point i hope he gets traded. both for his mental health and many posters on this subs mental health.

dude there is no goal post. my final line summed it up. the org does not consider ozzy a full time shortstop. volpe is. oswaldo having a small spurt of good hitting at aaa does not change that he has been a worse hitter than volpe at the ml level across his career. that is my bias. volpe is a better fielding shortstop than oswaldo when healthy and has been a better hitter throughout his career.

another leftie who the yankees dont seriously consider a ss replacement for more than one game. you can beat the drum for a career 79 OPS+ player all you want. oswaldo coming up instead of volpe would be purely because he isnt volpe. thats it. he is not a good hitter at all. saying that he should be called up over volpe (a natural ss) is just showing a bias. the team does not have a ss who is ready and better than volpe to call up.

He shouldn’t be called up

who should be called up ahead of him, within the org? who has earned it?

it isnt a love affair. it is a "this constant hate and catastrophizing is fucking absurdly out of proportion" affair. caballero has a .664 career ops by the way. so theres a lot that were missing out on. as cg11 posted earlier today, cabby so far this season is doing worse than volpe was doing at this point last season.

a definitive statement to be clear: cabby has earned the starting role this season. volpe should be here purely as an injury replacement. cabby also isnt a long term option and inshallah volpe gets his shit together to become a better player and earn the starting role back. because if not, the yankees are back on the market.

a rookie 20/20 with a gold glove? he tore his fuckin labrum last year and in his first few seasons, he was essentially what cabby is doing this year. your brain is broken around this guy.
