Hey everyone!
Ahead of the 2022 season, the Yankees seemingly upgraded their offense with the trade for Josh Donaldson However, 2 years later, Donaldson has declined massively. While it wasn't totally unexpected, this decline has been historically weird.

@GeraldM_inNC 9 месяцев назад

Every athlete ages differently. Some have gradual declines, others suddenly and abruptly drop off a cliff. Unfortunately for Cashman, JD and LeMahieu dropped off a cliff and did so while nowhere near 40. Anybody over 30 could have the same thing happen to him. These long term contracts that are paying athletes into their 40s are going to be destroying many teams in another five years.

Not only has Donaldson's decline been problematic, it seems the Org isnt too high on Peraza at 3B. Reminds me of the time when they played Posada over calling up Jesus Montero.

The clip showed Donaldson striking out and receiving a chorus of boos. - Here's the clip: twitter.com/TalkinYanks/status/1672420819979444224 Another 8/9/23 Update: -Due to another copyright claim at 12:08, I had to remove another clip. -Here's what I said: "Clearly, these oddities are due to the small sample size, but with the high likelihood of his calf injury ending his 2023 season, it’s possible we’ve seen the last of Donaldson in a big league uniform. A memorable career statistically, but not without controversy due to his outspoken nature."

@stevehill150 9 месяцев назад

Will always love him as an A’s, although it’s speculated him having issue with management. It was hard to see him win the MVP the next year with the Jays, as he still had a few years on his contract with Oakland. Still, he will always be one of my favorite Oakland player in the 2010s. Oh, and I love what he did in ATL in his short stint, especially since I was living there during the time.

That’s the Yankees attitude about him. Awful player now but like 12 out of his total 18 hits are home runs. I love his career and enjoyed all the shit he did, until he went to New York of course where he has been awful which everyone saw coming. I wish he didn’t suck and didn’t play for the Yankees. Really cool dude great story love his ‘fuck you attitude’

I've watched every one of Donaldson's at-bats as a Yankee. I now have the pleasure of watching him goof off in the dugout as he "recovers" from his "injury". People love to pile on and say he's washed up. But maybe, just maybe, this September he'll be back as twice the player he was during his MVP season...is what I'd say if I'd just suffered a massive head injury. I do admit he was the best part of a twice-rain delayed blowout to the Cardinals earlier this year. Came in to save a bullpen arm and threw some decent stuff in the mid 80s. Levity in a loss.

@dzanier 9 месяцев назад

His getting hurt was a blessing. Given the way things are now, the Yanks would’ve practically been obligated to DFA or release him. We still need help and need Stanton to be better, RIzzo too, but simply not having to worry about what to do with Donaldson makes many, many things easier. He wasn’t tradeable, and even if he didn’t play, he’d have occupied a roster spot, and that would’ve been like having a corpse on the roster.
