Good for Romine and Noesi! I know Romine has been struggling a bit in June, but he’ll rebound.
Rick, I’m sure the Yanks had their reasons for choosing to skip this start. I feel sorry for Phil that he’s so disappointed that he can’t pitch in front of his family, but hopefully he’ll get to do that in the ASG.
Never done this before but I’ll try.

Thanks to everyone who played.
I think Laird was more deserving than Romine…..I know there is politics involved with these selections as well but Laird is definitely more deserving of any and all accolades for the campaign he’s put up thus far.
Romine is a Catcher. That’s why he’s deserving.
