Welcome to the Jungle

Well well,,,,
Yankee NEWS 
So I kept hearing that the Bosucks were off to their best start in 100 years !!  Wow - so they must be leading the AL East by - what 20 games ???  10  games at least - well no - 1 game of the Yankees,,,  And Where I thought that Aaron Boone might not get out of May with this NYY managerial job in tack,,, he has the team playing at a very high level,,,  but I think it's more of 1)  Stay the hell outtta the way with the  offense and 2) don't F up the pitching staff,,,,

Then there were folks doubting of the Yanks could survive with Rookies at several starting spots,,, AKA - 3rd base so they went and got Brandon Drury (he has unfortunately been on the DL since April 7 with migraine issues,,, and has started game rehab  with the Rail Riders) Miguel Andujar has been playing 3rd for a while - he is hittin near .300 with 3 HR and 13 RBI's - and plays an Excellent defensive 3rd base,,,,  They called up Glebber Torres and he has been playing very well - hit his 1st Yankee Home run the other day - a 3 run shot to help win a game,,,  this is a Brian Cashman coup - he got Glebber from the  Cubs in the Chapman deal that saw Chapman  go the Cubs and help them win the Series  - and then resigned Chapman, and got Chicago's #1 prospect - Torres in the deal  !! WOW,,   Tyler Austin has been outstanding ,,,, even though he got himself suspended after a fight in Boston,,,  we will take that !!

And let's not forget the rest of the Young guys, - and 2nd year players,,,, like  oh yea - ALL RISE  !! Aaron Judge,,  The Kraken !!  Gary Sanchez,  Luis Severino - he is 5 and 1 with an ERA of 2.11 - tied for most wins with 5 an din the top 10 of every other category !  and Include in this discussion that Stanton has not really even started to hit !!  and WOOF - Just you wait and see,,,,, 

now  let's see who's not here - Ellsbury = Oblique - out like forever,  - DL , Greg Bird - DL since March 27 - 6-8 weeks.. Brandon Drury - head aches -


The Yankees really got screwed with the Schedule lately,    They played a Day Game on April 26th at home . vs the Twins, (completed a 4 game sweep) ,  then Flew to LA for a weekend series against the Angels with no day off ,, played a 3 game series there and swept the Angels,,  went to Houston for a 4 game series - again no day  off -  took 3 of 4 from the 'Stros.... flew home to play the schmINDIANS, no day off,,, won the 1st 2 games and go for the Sweep today ,,,, an then Finally a day off before hosting Boston for 3 starting Tuesday - Severino .vs Pomeranz , Tanaka .vs Price and CC .vs Porcello ,,  Let's see if the Yanks are in 1st place when Boston leaves town....

WORK NEWS 
1st week down at the Marina - getting more comfortable with the Job this year, - and with the Monies and Contracts and Weekly Transient rentals,,,  It's a really great place to work an dI love the Hudson and the Eagles and the whole deal .....   My hours are now basically the same  - I'm the Thursday, Friday , Saturday person,  with Thursday - alone from Noon to 8 , Friday and Saturday alone from 4 pm on ,,,, but its all good,, a bit crazy at times but hey - take it slow,,,  all these folks that are in a hurry - all get their boats in the water and then out of the water  !!!  Like 50 boats yesterday with Transient fisherman,, and overnighters !!  plus a few of our seasonal folks came in also ...
