Aaron Boone Addresses Giancarlo Stanton's Terrible Day in Left Field

​After​ trading for Giancarlo Stanton, Yankees fans could not do anything other than smile and think about the launching pad that is now the right handed batters box at Yankee Stadium. 

One thing that may have been overlooked was how exactly the ​outfield would look.

Sure, Stanton will DH most of the time, but what about when somebody else needs an off day? What about when he's got to pop up in the outfield?

Stanton and Aaron Judge are both right fielders, so clearly something needs to be worked out. Stanton is getting tested in the opposite corner outfield position in left field. On Sunday, he had a shaky performance, dropping at least three sun-aided balls thanks to bizarre route work.b

But the relentlessly positive Aaron Boone doesn't seem to have lost any hope.

In fact, Stanton is set to play left field again in his next game. 

Giancarlo Stanton said that he expects to play LF in his next game. That'd be Tuesday at Tigers in Lakeland.

Obviously playing a new position takes some getting used to, especially when you're playing in the bigs and balls are coming off of the bat at over 100 mph. 

I am sure Stanton will get his feet under him in left soon and everything will get sorted out. 

Just keep dreaming about all of the home runs, Yankees fans.

R. Tiglao Exposed LTO Records Showing Aquino Never Bought or Sold a Porsche

Veteran columnist Rigoberto Tiglao exposed the Land Transportation Office (LTO) records of former President Benigno Aquino III showing that he never bought or sold an expensive Porsche car. The LTO records proved that the former President did not sold his Porsche 911 Carrera car which he claimed he bought for P5 million. The controversial Porsche car of the former President made headlines just months into his presidency but he explained that he bought the luxury car with the proceeds he got when he sold his BMW. Because of the furor from such display of opulence, Pres. Aquino claimed to have sold it six months later for exactly the same price. According to Tiglao during that time he asked through his column the LTO to release the car's deed of sale and registration to prove that it was not a gift from a Chinese-Filipino tycoon as rumored by some individuals critical to the President. The only possible way to discover whether the Porsche luxury was indeed sold was through ...
