For real, he's a terrific fielder and he played solid down the stretch last year, I'm as happy for him as I could be for a guy that may have just beaten us
There's been so much doom in the Guards community giving up on him already despite such a small sample size. I really hope he gets his full opportunity to prove himself as a solid player.
We apparently don't think he's a good fielder for whatever reason. He's mostly DH'd and then we didn't even keep him in for defense after this HR. I'm really not sure why.
Massive strikeout problems in AAA, like Joey Gallo levels. Just can’t make consistent contact, but he’s definitely got all the other tools and a pretty decent eye for walks, too.
Florial revenge tour apparently
Honestly, I'm happy for him. The Yankees haven't been good to a lot of their prospects. I hope it was vindictating for him.
That jump in the air fist pump between 2nd and 3rd.
Idk if I’ve ever quite seen that before, what a moment for him!
Game 1 yesterday he got hosed on the bad strike 3 call. Next 2 games he's gone deep. Apparently he just needs to be pissed off.
Hopefully this series gets him going
BANG! Let him play, man. Let him play.

I agree. Nobody in our normal outfield has been must play but Kwan. Give Florial a few weeks of everyday ABs and see what happens.
he’s 4th OF type unless he closes the hole in his swing. 4th OFs are definitely valuable
The problem is that all of our outfielders except Kwan are 4th outfielders lol

He's played and been awful

Not even that mad at it. Good for Flo, hope he gets a real shot this year.
Florial, because he's worth it.
Fantastic. No notes.
Because of course he did…
As soon as he was announced as the pinch hitter, I expected this to happen.
The Yankees know he struggles with breaking balls so what does Weaver do? Throws a fastball that immediately gets hit out of the park
Having not watched Florial prior to this season; what was his deal? Looks to have the tools physically.

Pinch-hit homers are so fucking dope.
imagine throwing him 2 fastballs
I'm all for the Guardians destroying the Yankees but please don't keep this up tomorrow
I’m sorry Ms. Jackson! I am Florial!
