Sonny Gray did not want to play for the Yankees

  1. My man, you had a 4.51 ERA when you were with the Yankees. We didn’t want you back.

  2. He should watch out with comments like this given that the Boston media is also god awful..

    He doesn’t perform right away people will call for his head lol. Hopefully his stint doesn’t go the same way as his NY one.

  3. He’d be singing a different tune if he didn’t suck ass in NY. Pinstripes weigh heavy on some dudes…

  4. I feel like this is a common thing for guys who struggled with the Yankees to say. I’m not saying Gray is wrong, he knows himself better than I ever will, but it’s easier to say you never wanted to be a Yankee after sucking as a Yankee or joining the biggest rival than it is to succeed and say I never wanted to be a Yankee.

    At the end of the day it’s water under the bridge. He got out of New York and found success in smaller markets, we’ll see if that translates to Boston.

  5. Whats the difference? The Red Sox are basically the Yankees lite

    I remember when they were playing us in the 2004 world series and everyone was acting like they were some kind of underdogs with like 50% of our payroll more than us.

  6. That’s a strange way to say “I was mid at best for 6 years before I went to the Reds”

    If you’re booed for posting a 4.90 ERA, that’s not on the org.

  7. This is like when a heel cuts a promo on the city he’s wrestling in but you can tell his heart’s just not into it

  8. I get hating on the Yankees, but would one really rather live in Boston than NYC? They have a third-rate symphony orchestra!
