Adam Horowitz

He has — where healthy… a 3.99 ERA last season and 3.96 xERA is solid success. He had a .275 BABIP. In ST it’s at like .500. There’s a lot of underlying stuff that says he’ll be fine at the back of the rotation and still have plenty of higher upside. Gil has been more concerning

@BryanHoch It’s not like Weathers has ever had any sold success at the MLB level.

Ryan Weathers will be in the Yankees' starting rotation, Aaron Boone confirmed. "He's healthy and the stuff is in line with where it needs to be. I don't put a lot of stock in numbers in spring," Boone said.

Yeah… I think the issue is the game has changed since the 90s dynasty. The Yankees really HAVE been good enough to win multiple times in the Judge era and have run into bad luck or their own mistakes or circumstance… 2017 cheating scandal 2019 Astros team was arguably best that franchise ever had… and still Yanks were right there… was there still cheating? Who knows… but even without it they were one Chapman pitch away 2020 Covid year — nothing made sense 2022 trade deadline moves derailed by injuries… otherwise that team coulda had a real shot 2023 toe injury 2024 World Series where they shot themselves in the foot They’re a team that’s like playing Russian roulette and every time shoots themselves in the head…. The odds are they SHOULD have won at least one of those But they didn’t Hopefully odds catch up

@NamethatYank I will never abandon the Yankees. I think we all just want the title back in NYC. It's been too long.

You're a better person than me. I wish I had your optimism and confidence. I just don't believe anymore, and I am tired of perennial disappointment.

@LexG_III Who is Bill Ryan?

@victoraren57 @MissYankee I really don’t think it has anything to do with service time and more to do with wanting him to be a starter and making sure he gets enough innings before a pen role this year

@MissYankee they're worried about srevice time. screw that.

Yankees are making another huge mistake sending Carlos Lagrange to the minors. He proved he belongs in the Majors. Now they going to allow him to rot away and disappear. Just terrible.

I think the thinking is to delve him as a starter he needs 120+ innings this season. If he comes up right away in pen they could set him back as a starter. If they give him a few months in minors to get some innings then bring him in pen or rotation if needed he’s still on track to be a starter in ‘27 and he’s probably more Valuable to franchise long term as an SP who can thrown 102 for 5+ innings. This strategy is trying to have best of both worlds. I’m sure they know they can’t keep that arm down there for long…

@JohnC112461 They're bullpen is terrible right now and they need him. Why waste his talent in the minors?

@YankeeSource @FolliesBlue How can he turn that FB into a strength? With that velo one would think he could? Does he need better location? IVB? Does it just sit on the middle of the plate ?

@AdamHorowitzLA @FolliesBlue Agree. He does have to battle a bit because his sweeper is not going to be in the zone a lot when he’s ahead in the count. Usually leads to long count and then he’ll need to mix in more fastballs (which isn’t his strength).

Ryan Weathers BABIP ST 2026: .513 2025: .275 2024: .276

@YankeeSource @FolliesBlue Watching him — it seems like he needs to work on his pitch mix. Like he goes to the fast ball too much. His sweeper looked great, he had a nice K of Kirk on one. Maybe he just needs to be less predictable

@FolliesBlue Yea. He’s not pitching to a .500 BABIP this year. What I do like is the 12.41 K/9 and 2.19 BB/9. Results have been bad, but that’s the underlying stat that could lead to some success.

the worst airline with regards to children is @delta

@Delta why did you move my children on their upcoming flight ? and why won't you put them back in their assigned seats?

@BarnHasSpoken2 I was at Dodger stadium in ‘97 for a Maddux shutout that he pitched in about 2 hours total. He was remarkable

I watched the last 8 years of Greg Maddux's career (2001-2008) I wish I would've seen his peak in the 90s.

@realboshek Dodgers did it with an underperforming Ohtani and anemic overall offense in 2024 so why not?

Quick Q Is it possible for the Yankees to win the World Series this year if Judge is just ordinary in the playoffs

@BobbyMilone29 Lotsa confusion on the bullpen phone… Get Gil up… Hill? No, Gil. Then get Cruz ready. Cruz? No, Cruz.

Something to think about, The Yankees pen might look totally different in July Bednar Lagrange- (100+) Weathers-(100+) Doval- (100+) Cruz- (100+) Cruz Hill Gil They could have 4 guys throwing over 100, Velo in the pen was their biggest issue over the years, it could be solved

Nothing

@OctoberJudge1 McMahon 1900 K under (slightly)… but a Gold Glove!

O/U Yankees (Hitters): Grisham: 115 wRC+ over Judge: 53 HR over Belli: 4 fWAR over Rice: 130 wRC+ over Stanton: 81 GP over Jazz: 35 SB under Wells: 100 wRC+ over Caballero: 2 fWAR over McMahon: 190 K over Volpe: 90 wRC+ under (*long sigh..)

@GarysheffieldJr Haha for sure

@AdamHorowitzLA Zero chance. Curt Schilling bloody sock performance no doubt

This is the worst Whitlock we’ve seen on national TV since Jason Whitlock

@nypostsports @MikeVacc @Joelsherman1 @JonHeyman I think anyone who grew up in the 80s probably could come to that conclusion pretty easily. Being a kid in the 80s and a Yankee fan was ROUGH.

Would the Yankees be better off today with George or Hal Steinbrenner? @MikeVacc explains why after writing his new book, The Bosses of the Bronx, he came away believing the answer is Hal. ALL NEW The Show with @Joelsherman1 & @JonHeyman --> trib.al/vLeppr0

@joeygems @GaryMyersNY 17/18

@joeygems @GaryMyersNY I loved Sevvy, the problem was, other than 18/19, he was never able to sustain it over a full season.

Fun fact: I was really into last night's USA-Dominican Republic game. It struck me that seemingly every pitcher either plays or played for the Mets or Yankees. I counted it up today and 7 of the 13 had the NY connection. Unfortunately, none of them are Paul Skenes.

@RyanGarciaESM @YankeesFocus what do you think happens to Rodon?

@YankeesFocus Fried: under (180) Schlittler: over Warren: under Weathers: over Gil: under Rodon; under Cole: under Bednar; over Lagrange: over

O/U Yankees (Pitchers): Max Fried - 185 IP Cam Schlittler - 140 K Will Warren - 4.20 ERA Ryan Weathers - 60 IP Luis Gil - 15 GS Carlos Rodon - 150 K Gerrit Cole - 3.90 ERA David Bednar - 32 SV Carlos Lagrange - 1 GS Quote or reply with your predictions
