A lot of players are starting to come off the IR these days. And what it does is provide a log jam, especially because the fill-in guys have been doing such a great job, and now there will be roster moves, some even being sent down to AAA. Not because they haven't performed, but because there's just no room. We will have to see what happens at first base next, because Edwin Encarnacion could be returning.

"Edwin Encarnacion is tantalizingly close to returning to the Yankees, having completed his rehab assignment with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre about a month after landing on the injured list with a fractured wrist. Aaron Boone said Monday that Encarnacion could be reinstated Tuesday, though he said he’d have to check with the first baseman/DH first.
Encarnacion confirmed the end of his rehab assignment to the Scranton Times-Tribune, saying: 'I feel good. I feel healthy. I feel 100 percent.'”
Stay tuned for this one. It could affect Voit or Ford. We will see.
We do not need him .Let him collect splinters on the bench.
ReplyDeleteThis team does not need the musical chairs lineup that Boone plays every day. Does Boone ever look at the analytics ?
Gardner , Torres rake at lower in the lineup and he plays games .
Really got to wonder if he has a clue sometimes.
Before anyone says Boone won a 100 last year and on pace to break that this year let me say with these players you should win a bunch of games.
We never needed Encarnation and I still believe that.
