2017 Joe Girardi Performance Thread

[just-blaze]

Huh? Judge was 0-3 and Didi had a hit

Both got on base once. SSS and all but....

OBP
Judge 408
DiDi 327

[ymike673]

While we're critiquing the lineup, Didi should bat 9th. Easily the worst approach on the team.

Not as long as Carter is in the lineup

[teknetic]

Can't let the long reliever with options overwork himself while he's dominating. He's not gonna have the luxury of a second relief ace for a month -- we're gonna see a few more of these micromanaging bullpen blunders.

[NelsonMuntz]

Please bat Didi 9th.

The Binder Guy got a pretty nice round of applause when he was introduced at the Jeter ceremony

It's not exactly an Online fan forum type crowd tonight.

Leave Warren to finish the game.

Too easy. Cute moved always better.

[Yankee Steve]

So Joe leaves Green in to finish the game, allowing him to pitch 3 innings and getting 6 Ks. Seems no one ever comments on when Joe does what everyone seeemingly wants him to do - only when he doesn't. Yeah, I know... They were behind by 5 runs.

Which is the point. If Yankees were up by 5 runs Green never pitches a third inning. Joe would go to Layne in the ninth and when he got into trouble Betances would have to come in.

3 regulars at the same time?

Can't you space them out? Give Headley the day off tonight and split Hicks and Sanchez over the next 2 days?

[Russell Shows Muscle]

Sanchez couldn't have pinch-hit there in the 9th?

[2JAY]

I guess Joe took the binder to his daughters graduation and Thomson simply did not know who or what he had available after the BP blew up tonight. Hicks and Sanchez not hitting in the 9th is curious, being kind, to say the least.

[spanky185]

Looking up "Joe Girardi" on Twitter right now is amusing to say the least

No, that would take common sense.

Thompson following Girardi's orders. I am sure same three players would not have started if Joe did not leave. Do think Joe would have pinch hit Hicks or Sanchez in the ninth.

Interesting that Hicks has become a "regular" now.

[ymike673]

Today's Post said Thompson played Girardi's lineup last night.

[just-blaze]

Interesting that Hicks has become a "regular" now.

What would you call him?

[-tz]

What would you call him?

A fourth outfielder? Or which of the other three is the "fourth"?

Not that I'm disparaging Hicks. It's just that at the beginning of the season no one thougt of him as anything but a spare part.

[fredgmuggs]

Sanchez couldn't have pinch-hit there in the 9th?

Apparently he had a stiff neck and the Yankees decided to give him an entire day off according to something I read (Maybe the NY Post?). There are things behind the scenes they we as fans aren't privy to until after the fact.

[Art Vanderlay]

Used Clippard to get big outs against left handed hitters late in the game, gives us some insight into what he thinks of Layne and Shreve. Now its up to Cashman to provide better options.

Why does Joe use Layne ahead of Shreve? I believe Shreve's ERA is still 0.

[ClownPickle]

Shreve horrible against lefties. Brings him in to face lefties anyway. So so so so dumb.

Cashman also a moron for having Layne on roster over Webb.
