I don't think he's homer crazy. Just batting in bad luck, failing to adjust perhaps to what Toronto was doing. He wouldn't be where he is if it wasn't for some hard, consistent contact to right. Lately he looks so of balanced when he’s swinging: like he’s trying to put everything he has in the swing. I think he should off trying to hit homers unless there is a hanging curve ball or his at bat doesn’t mean anything

Volpe will be fine in the box. His struggles in TOR had to do with very good starting pitching. Most of the Yanks lineup struggled in the series.
His glove has been ok, but not that great, really.
Friar is concerned with our IF defense. We don't turn DPs very effectively.

That was an excellent play.
But, we don't seem to turn DPs well, and he's bobbled a few times that haven't resulted in errors, but have cost us runs. He's made 3 errors which gives him a .970 fielding percentage, same as last year. So, yes you guys are right and maybe this is overstated...
Gleyber hasn't been good at all....

Torres defense still shaky …. I’m trying to change my opinion on him as a player cause I was so sure they’d trade him but he’s really struggling on both sides of the ball

Gleyber had such a good Spring. This is deflating; I have to feel he'll recover, at least on offense

I'm very optimistic about Gleyber. He's good.

I’m trying to change my opinion on him as a player cause I was so sure they’d trade him but he’s really struggling on both sides of the ball It seems when Torres is struggling, it’s when he is trying to be a power hitter. He’s a much better hitter when he strives to make contact instead of trying to loft it with a high launch angle.
