"A young man from Compton rises to the highest levels of baseball greatness.
Considered one of the classiest baseball players ever, this is Roy White's story, but it's also the story of a unique period in baseball history when the Yankees fell from grace and regained glory and the country dealt with societal changes in many ways."

seems pretty clear that EJ felt that Holmes did his job successfully. he gave up nothing but WEAK contact. the fielders did not make the plays. it is unrealistic and unfair to expect that he will come in EVERY game like he did in that Dodgers game and throw basically EVERY pitch for a strike. there have been a LOT of excellent relievers and closers over the years who throw plenty of balls. that by itself does NOT define if they did or did not do their job.
the job is get the outs and do not give up the runs that lose the game. Holmes without question got the outs. ZERO runs should have been scored. Holmes did his…

Ben Shields.. Just up to AA, great control, lefty. I want to see if he'll crack…
Chapman does not have a very tradeable contract. Everything is at his discretion, not the clubs.
The deadline this year is 6pm EST on July 30.
As for the Yankees farm system, there are a ton of injuries. The list of who is healthy of their Top 30 prospects is much shorter. One thing that has come back to really hurt Cashman in terms of the Yankees fans, that this is the 3rd year that us fans can watch the affiliates. For instance, how the Yankees coach these guys, their methodology really ticks me off. If it was up to me, I'd fire all the Hitting & Pitching Coordinators, and dumping any of the coaches who really are analytical guys…
