Hal should sell the Yankees. They have been dealing like a small market team for the last couple of years…now they have a team that resembles a small market team.
28 players through May 1, with no limits on pitchers No more than 13 pitchers after May 1. New Shohei Ohtani rule - if the starting pitcher is DH'ing, he does not need to stop DH'ing when lifted as a pitcher
and....
The Ghost Runner returns in the 10th inning.
I'm torn on the ghost runner; it's not natural (can I say supernatural?) but it has done exactly what it was supposed to do, and tbh, done it in a relatively enjoyable way. The other changes I'm fine with
If they add stealing 1st base to MLB in the future (and they’re using it in some minor leagues this year), I’m done.
Hasn't stealing 1st always been allowed?? On a dropped 3rd strike, that's exactly what happens. What is the change that's under consideration now? Would it just be extended to any dropped pitch?

That’s not a stolen base.

I know it is only the 8th day of games, but the Yankees have to be wondering about Severino being their #2 starter. He has been getting hit hard, and I wonder whether if this shortened spring will be long enough for him to get ready.

It would be any dropped pitch. Official scorer wise it is a Fielders Choice, and not a Stolen Base.

Right now, the Yankees are happy Severino is healthy and his velocity is up.
Listening to the Yankees vs the Red Sox from 08/16/58 - the 10th anniversary of the death of Babe Ruth. Rizzuto is doing the play by play - he just said the next home stand in New York will see all the "western" clubs coming into the south Bronx... Cleveland, Detroit, Chicago and Kansas City. I feel old - I remember having all these players on baseball cards (still have my Yankees). It's Larson against Brewer - The Sox are leading 1-0 at this moment.
The good old days!

btw....talking about Ted Williams, my daughter went up to Vermont over the Winter for skiing and stayed in a home that was once owned by Ted. It was full of Ted Williams memorabilia. She asked me had I ever heard of Ted Williams and I of course said he was one of the greatest ballplayers ever.

Seems like Jim had some sort of a momentary mental breakdown where he lost his sense of New York Clarity. I plan on burning the gloves I used to touch this nasty little thing.
