Anyone else not understand trading for Greg Allen?

Hal won't DFA Hicks so another outfielder isn't what we need.

If you're going to trade off a low end prospect pitcher, at least get us a major league ready arm to aid in our pitching mess. We need bullpen arms, not another QuadA bench outfielder...


I hate Brian Cashman

Maybe they didn't jump to conclusions and waited for the umpire explanation unlike the guy in the MLB thread here.

Because Cashman and Hal are morons.

I can truly say the Red Sox rivalry is dead. Trading for a player on their team.

I don't know if it's because we haven't played Houston yet or it's not the playoffs, but it seems to me right now, the rivalry is stronger against the Jays and Rays. With the Rays I think it's more a fan thing and with the Jays it's because of the moronic mouths of their announcers, Vladdy, and Minoah.

Yea exactly. And theres nobody I hate on Boston other then maybe Sale and Brasier. I don't hate Devers or Justin Turner. I actually like Yoshida lol.

Vladdy pisses me off and their clown coaches and announcers. They've never won a damn thing. Talks so much with nothing to show. Came in to Toronto with our B team and took 3 outta 4. Could of easily been a sweep and should of.

The way I see it is the Astros even though tainted still have won 2 World Series since 2017 so they’re formidable and to be respected and hated.

The Red Sox have gotten the best of the rivalry World Series and playoff head to head lately but it seems for some reason my hatred for them as a franchise is a lot less than it used to be. Whether the Yankees or Red Sox are going through tough times there will always be the want to beat each other. They go under the respected and not hated all that much category.

The Tampa Bay Rays, I never really considered them a rivalry and I guess that comes with the fact they have never won a World Series or laid a damaging blow on the Yankees in the playoffs. They are a good young team that always restocks their lineup for cheap and still remains playoff and World Series contenders. They are gaining my respect but I can’t bring myself to hate them.

The Toronto Blue Jays, This is the elephant in the room arrogant fans arrogant announcers and big mouthed players trying to make themselves relevant. This franchise hasn’t won a World Series since the early 90’s but just ask any Canadian fan they are simply the best. If it were up to the Yankees this franchise wouldn’t even exist as they only start garbage with the Yankees trying to earn their relevance card. Toronto you had your chance last year to at least back up some of the talk but too bad you couldn’t hold onto an 8-1 lead against of all teams the Seattle Mariners. This franchise will never have my respect and they are too much of a joke to be hateworthy.

That’s my take sorry for the rambling, sorry I didn’t mention the Orioles but I am indifferent on them.

Yeah I forgot to mention Toronto's moron coaches. I wonder how Don felt sitting in that dugout as Yankees royalty hearing that crap spouted about them?

And you don't have to suffer with Orioles fans like I do daily. I just remind them that almost year in and year out, Camden Yards is Yankee Stadium South when the Yankees are in town because normally, the Yankees fans far outnumber Orioles fans at the games.

Prior to today’s game, the Yankees made the following roster moves:

•Signed OF Greg Allen (#30) to a Major League contract and selected him to the active roster. •Designated OF Aaron Hicks for assignment.

He had one last good game with the Yankees 2 nights ago management said there is no way we can take a chance on him becoming helpful. He is the kind of player that once he’s signed will probably flourish on another team. Wonder what was the final straw.
