WITH SOTO SCRATCHED WE'RE JUST THE 2023 YANKEES ALL OVER AGAIN


How come when Juan Soto is out of the lineup, suddenly we are less productive, or better yet, lose the game?  What's happening with the Yankees? Why can't we be as hot as we've been?  Maybe... just maybe, we're not that good?  Just saying.  Bottom line is when Soto is out of the lineup... we're the 2023 Yankees.  Just keeping it real.

The Sporting News writes:

"Soto was scratched from the starting lineup Saturday afternoon against the Toronto Blue Jays due to a hand bruise.

After brutal 9-3 loss on the road, manager Aaron Boone updated the media on the severity of Soto's injury after he had imaging during Saturday's game.

Boone said the X-rays on Soto's hand came back negative and is likely day-to-day."

This Boone moron also said the injury while negative is "concerning."  And every media outlet went with that, and Boone's not a doctor.  Like, how about we don't quote the guy ever.

The play to get Soto home the other night was brilliantly executed, and again, that's what Soto does to a Yankee lineup, elevates it. But he's not there it's like Judge on an island, and it's definitely a differently played game all together.  

Yesterday, Cortes wasn't very good, and our pen got lit up.  

And so what happens now? The Yankees will need to try and win without Soto for a couple days. Who knows with we can do that with this 2023 team.  We shall see.
