[Talkin’ Yanks] Aaron Boone says Anthony Volpe will “probably” be in the lineup tonight

1. Doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.

2. Please no. Pinch runner for Stanton is “in the lineup”

3. Why would we put Volpe in? Does Boone want to lose the series?

4. “The Yankees would rather lose with confidence than lose confidence”

5. Damnit

6. As a Blue Jays fan, I am very gruntled.

7. Caballero made three bad plays yesterday. Two on the field and another one on the base paths. I thought people here were fans of benching players when they make so many mistakes. And don’t get me wrong, I think Caballero should continue to start, but giving him an day off after the game he had yesterday is fine.

8. AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH

9. All I’m saying is that the last time Volpe got a cortisone shot and was rested for a few days, he hit 15-for-57 with 7 homers

   Maybe we get that version today

10. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

11. > Aaron Boone says Anthony Volpe will “probably” be in the lineup tonight

    Only “probably” because Aaron, who doesn’t make the lineups, doesn’t know. But he had input at the meeting.

12. As bat boy?

13. y tho

14. WHY?

15. We’re back to losing

16. Why

17. Volpe is a bad baseball player. And that’s ok. Sometimes top prospects don’t pan out for whatever reason. When that happens, you have to be ready and willing to move on. The Yankees are neither ready nor willing. So we’ll be stuck here for a while longer.

18. Why are the yankees constantly attached to volpes big giant dick? He was never really good and he sucks now.

19. He’s gonna sail one right over 1B

20. Yes, this shitbum will immediately fix all of the problems with the offense.

    /s

21. Cabby fucks up ONE (1) time and he gets the hook. We have to watch Volpe fuck up all year and he’s immeadiately back in there. Cabby messed up last night on BASE RUNNING something Volpe can even get on.

22. The amusing thing is that both Volpe and Caballero are in their first arb year next year. So its not even about who has more long term potential to help. Just stubbornness.

23. Cabby is the better player and he should be playing every day.

    Let’s not use the guy whose stolen 45 bases and is leading the league in steals… despite playing once week behind a bum like Volpe. 

    Literally hindering our team by not playing Cabby. 

24. And Robert Redford died today.

    Yep..I’ve had better tuesdays

25. Someone needs to put this whole Volpe thing under the definition of sunk cost fallacy in Wikipedia lmao

26. Surely things will be different this time

27. Boone saying he wanted to use Volpe but the trainers didnt want him to is telling of how they handle injuries

28. He’s got dirt on Boone and Cashman. Has to.

29. Volpe needs to get traded..he’s toast.

30. Caballero since August 1st
