    JD was very injury prone prior to his Boston days. Maybe that points to some optimism for the Yanks when he becomes full time DH?

    Ha. You and I are on the same page when it comes to the Yankees and sign stealing.

    The Yankees can only hope. If I recall correctly, that contract was heavily back loaded, so he hasn't earned much of the contract yet.

    He isn't opting out. He is going to be a soft tissue guy as long as he works himself into being a Goliath and not work on flexibility. He is a top notch hitter, and he will continue to be. But with his recent history, he is a DH alone. His contract is strange. It was incredibly back loaded, so for a lux tax perspective, the Yanks do well. For an actual payout perspective, not so much
    Hal sucks

    Giancarlo needs to get with TB12 and work on his pliability....

    And hoping is all they have. He’s less likely to opt out than Price was..,
