Might as well put Giancarlo on the IL now.


Let's see what this team is made of. I think I'm at a place with I think that firing Boone (although he deserves to be fired), won't be enough.

I'm of the opinion that we've relied upon Judge too much as a crutch to hold up our team for far too long. If Boone is a real leader, this team will get through this, and even flourish. If Cashman isn't total trash, then this team is going to look fine without Judge. If Hal is right, then all his cheap spendings are going to get us wins.

I'm also worried that they're going to use this injury as an excuse for when they crater to the last wild card spot and get eliminated.

Also, one reason the Yankees need to spend and not waste prospects during the trade deadline...

At some point, a real superstar like Paul Skenes is going to end up on the market. Every time we try to save money and overpay for reinforcements on the trade deadline, we lose another piece that could go in that package.

It's kind of like Hal and Cashman tried to pull that fake hustle move towards Kyle Tucker during the last offseason...

It will be the excuse. But we were already in serious trouble before Judge went down. We're 6.5 games back in the division and the Blue Jays gave us a thorough pounding up the rear.

We're not a contender. Roster wise and fundamentally this team is just not where it needs to be. The blame can be shared across the entire organization.

Nice to see our bullpen do their jobs for once. Unfortunately, it’s been our 3 most consistent guys and washed up lasagna for .2 innings.

Right. We wouldn't have had to trade for a 3rd baseman in season if Brian had addressed the problem during the winter. This is a continuous issue.
