Chad Green can’t go unscathed either, had us in a hole early. Can’t be giving up 3 run bombs.

The team managed CC work load horribly, you had the right load management he would be out there today possibly pitching 5-6 innings even 4 innings, would it guarantee we won today no but you feel more comfortable having CC out there hell yeah, and they disrespected him by putting in a 1st and 3rd no out situation in the condition he is in. CC actually did pitch 6 innings when he was actually healthy.

It’s easier to just say who doesn’t suck major ass.

1) DJ
2) Torres
3) Gio most of the time
4) Hicks sometimes
5) Judge during low pressure situations

That’s it. That’s the list.

3 run bombs will always beat you you cant get away with it against the Astros. No excusing Green, starting pitching does matter though the more you pitch the pen the more they get exposed against the better teams, the more length your starters give you the more formidable your pen is.

Top pitchers in free agent: Cole. Bumgarner. Hamels. Hyun Jin Ryu. Zach Wheeler. Strasburg ( can opt out). odorizzi. Keuchel. Sign 3 of these guys. I don't care if it cost 300 million. Get Cole, Bumgarner and Wheeler. With our luck we'll sign them and they'll fluke in pinstripes. But better to get them and die trying. We rarely get Ace pitchers in free agent. And there is 3 maybe 5 in there.

Looking at the list

Bu,ganer will not sign in ny

Wheeler isnt an ace

Pass on kuechel

It's really cole or bust for me and it weakens your major opponent.

Hal and Cashman. Did anyone seriously here think we would be favorites against Houston? This is an expected result. We also got outmaneuvered hard at the trade deadline and free agency.

The thing is this: Hal probably is happy with the end result of our season. We got our division title. We got 100 wins. But most importantly, we saved a ****ton of money.

Sanchez and Ottavino are on the **** list of Yankees that need to be traded. Problem is, who do you replace them with? Sanchez can **** go. I don’t care about his regular season stats. I hate his approach at the plate and his defense behind it. Sanchez repeatedly **** the team on offense and defense.

Severino can’t be trusted. Just like the season before this they need another SP, more contact hitters like DJ, and better bullpen arms. Ottavino and Green killed us this series. Betances isn’t coming back any time soon to fill that gap.

F*ck I’m so aggravated right now.

Cashman didnt really fail for me, the yankees pitching was fine . Chapman was a piece of **** to pitch to Altuve though and boone not taking guys out the lineup and switching it up was the bigger issur

**** German btw, would have helped us out tremendously and he was unhittable against the Astros, remember the 1 hitter he had against the Astros.

Here's what will happen. Cole will let it known through back channels that NY is his first choice. Media anticipates this. Stores in NY start stocking Gerrit Cole Yankee jerseys. Vegas puts the Yankees towards the top.

Then all of it sudden, we start hearing how Cole sucks. Bad manners. Oh shoot, he wants to get paid a fair contract. NY Yankees give a contract offer, just enough to be inoffensive to Cole but enough that they know they will get rejected while explaining to the fans that they tried their best. Cole waits several weeks for the Yankees to realize they get a ton of revenue and that they're not the Rays and that they should push for a championship when they have pieces like Judge and Torres, but in the end, he ends up signing with some second-tier team.

Yankees sign Odorizzi 2 years 16 million. Some fans applaud Cashman, say it's a good move and get giddy about how they're going to win the division.

Why won't Bum sign with NY? Didn't the Yanks want to trade for Wheeler before and thought they can make him an Ace? Definitely get Cole but I doubt he pitches for us like how he pitched for these guys.

What sucks is the **** Redsox fans still have bragging rights since they won 2 world series recently and beat these Astros, its like everything we did this season gets erased, the team will have to face the music from the media, hate it that they have proven them right.

Nah, they should face the music from the fans. We're the New York Yankees. We don't do moral victories. There's nothing good from this season. Erase this ****.

Oh if they didnt before they will now, cant believe I defended the team this year. Team needs to stop talking about hr records and work on fundamental, situational baseball, need to learn how to win close low scoring games, and enough with the god damn starters not going 5 innings on a consistant basis.
