Day 7

Fresh Start_7: Gary Sanchez
After a great trade deadline, the New York Yankees have got a gift from God. This gift is a catcher by the name of Gary Sanchez. This astronomical rookie has broken hitting records that no other player has ever done. Gary Sanchez is the fastest player to eleven home run. Sanchez is batting .400, 11 home runs, and 21 RBI’s in just 22 games. Not only that, Sanchez’ defense has caught the eye of many including Baltimore Oriels manager Buck Showalter. Sanchez has a great arm and a very nice glove including some tricky catches in foul territory against Baltimore.
Yankee fans have heard a lot of rumors about Sanchez, Bird, and Judge among others. But, nobody ever thought this would happen. What Gary Sanchez is doing is unprecedented and almost rookie of the year caliber for a guy who has only player twenty-one games. I went to the game were Sanchez hit his first home run. Hopefully, Sanchez becomes an All-Star so I can tell my grandkids about him. What Sanchez is doing is worth watching as a baseball and a Yankee fan. When Sanchez is at-bat it is most watch tv, and the excitement that the twenty-three-year-old rookie is doing is exactly what the Yankees need to try and make the playoffs.
I have said that the Yankees are just pretenders this season and they can’t make the playoffs, but now I honestly have no idea. The team that is not as talented as the roster that opened up the season. C.C. has been revitalized and is looking like he knows how to pitch with less velocity. Sanchez is the leading force behind a young unproven group that has been vastly underrated, and has been ridden off by most fans around the game. Gary Sanchez is the only reason that some Yankee fans watch the games anymore. Another thing that I didn’t expect Gary Sanchez to be the guy, I honestly thought it was going to be Aaron Judge. I hope the best for the Yankees and Gary Sanchez.

2024 MLB Preview

  Opening Day is about 24 hours away and the Shohei Ohtani gambling story has stole all the headlines and fleeting moments of baseball conversation over the past few days, many have now forgotten about the exciting marathon ahead of us! Even with the ever-evolving Ohtani story clouding the beginning of the Los Angeles Dodgers season, that doesn’t change the fact that L.A. is still the team to beat in baseball. The Dodgers have put their chips at the center of the table, no pun intended, for 2024 to show they can raise another World Series trophy after sending upwards of a billion dollars in free agency. In division however, the surprise Arizona Diamondbacks are capitalizing on their newfound championship window with a fantastic offseason that will have them in the mix to get back to a second straight fall classic. The San Diego Padres are done shopping for superstars, sort of, following a massively disappointing season that saw them move on from one of the games generational talent...

Dan Hurley Saved College Basketball

When you think of Men’s College Basketball, the names of Wooden, Dean, Krzyzewski, Williams, Thompson, and Calipari shoot to mind right away. All the memories of the great teams from UCLA, Duke, North Carolina, Kentucky, the Big East, UNLV, and even the Fab Five start to rush back. Nostalgia of a time when the sport meant something different. For all those longing for the days when great teams didn’t dissipate into the transfer portal after one disappointing year—Dan Hurley and the Connecticut Huskies are here to save the day! UConn has done something that only seven other programs have done in the history of college basketball, repeat as champions. Forget all the talk about “best team of all-time,” even though if you look at point differential (like it truly matters), this UConn team is the best team to ever play in the NCAA Tournament. This team means much more to the game of college basketball than that. Coach Hurley has given college basketball what it has been missing since the in...

Last Year the Season was one game long, it's different this year

  It took 363 days, but Jets fans finally got the debut from Aaron Rodgers they waited for. This time around that debut ended in a blowout loss on the road to the San Francisco 49’ers. Last year the Jets won the battle but lost the war following their overtime walk-off win against the Buffalo Bills. This year, the Jets hope they lost the battle but because they have Rodgers they will win the war.   Of all the ways the game could have gone last night, having the Jets defense get thoroughly dominated on the ground by a third year running back, Jordan Mason, who wasn’t a household name until last night, wasn’t on the bingo card. The trademark for Robert Saleh has been his defense. That’s what got him hired from San Francisco. The defense is what Jet fans have pointed to as a reason for optimism heading into this year with Rodgers. The defense was finally supposed to get the complimentary football they have been dying for since Robert Saleh walked in the doors at Florham Park...
