The Boone/Cashman duo is like handing 2 slow toddlers a Ferrari to drive. It's so stupid and the results are so unsurprising.

Boone mentioning that Donaldson is going to be an everyday player makes me want to give up on the season.

Re: 2023 New York Yankees Thread
Yankees re-signing Judge just to do absolutely nothing after to bolster the lineup is the most post 2010 Yankee thing ever...
Guy is literally the best power hitter since Bonds and we're just ok with throwing one of Donaldson or IKF out there on a daily basis. Pathetic.

Feels like we are winning with smoke and mirrors at the moment.

Re: 2023 New York Yankees Thread
Can we get Jose Ramirez since he is having down year so far?
Batting & pitching has been mediocre at best.
Record is exceeding actual talent.
We all know how season will end.
Wild card and out.

Re: 2023 New York Yankees Thread
A few observations from watching the highlights of this game:
1) Nestor Cortes went from being Nasty Nestor to Jaime Garcia 2.0.
2) Boone's lack of ingame management skills shifted the momentum in Baltimore's favor.
3)Our bullpen is already getting burnt out because our entire rotation outside of Cole cannot make it into the later innings.
4)The DJLM contract has been close to a disaster and it isn't even half way expired, but then again Cashman is the kingpin of handing out or inheriting albatross contracts(see Ellsbury,Hicks,Stanton,Britton,Donaldson,Rodon).

Re: 2023 New York Yankees Thread
1 run in the last 18 innings, that looks closer to the real Yankees. This team has some major major issues. It’s not gonna get fixed by just making a couple of moves.
The pitching has their issues but are they giving you a chance to win yes. The lineup is the main issue because they give you no chance to win. Would the return of Sevy and Rodon help sure would it really make much of a difference probably not.
Lineup is way too dependent on Judge, Rizzo and Bader homering. The Orioles have surpassed us and I’m not even saying it out of frustration, they have better coaching and scouting and now looks like they have the better roster. Only reason we didn’t get swept by them is because their closer left and 0-2 pitch on Judge up in the zone, teams going forward will pound the dirt on Judge.

For the last couple of seasons the White Sox couln't even beat the Bad News Bears, but when they come to the Bronx they become the Yankees' daddies.
This all falls on Boone for being inept at motivating his team to be poised and focused against lesser competition.

Hal should just buy whole Rays FO and call it a day.
Amazing how they keep competing on half the payroll.

Hal and Cashman have build a roster so dependent on Aaron Judge that it wouldn't surprise me one bit if the Yankees are sniffing last place once again by the end of this month.

Re: 2023 New York Yankees Thread
On the bright side Donaldson looks like he's competing for the home run derby and IKDGAF is actually showing signs of life. DJ looks like a shell, Stanton is garbage, Volpe doesn't look ready, Rizzo is slumping. This team lives and dies with Judge and that's not a way to build a team smh

Re: 2023 New York Yankees Thread
This team’s payroll without Judge and Cole would be around $195-$200 million.
So about the 7th highest payroll in baseball.
Can you freakin imagine this team without Judge and Cole?
How can Cashman possibly have a job?

Since the last championship there's been Presidents/GMs in baseball that have won World Series' and have been out of a job for less.
(Hot Take) To me this whole 14 year drought has been worse than what's been going on with the Knicks. Dolan has at least hired/fired multiple people over again. Cashman has been the one constant for over 20 years.

The Hal/Cashman regime is not that much different from the Dolan/Mills one.
The Yankees' failure to reach the World Series since 2009 is akin to the Knicks not being able to get into the playoffs from 2014-2020 under Mills.
Under Cashman, the managers and the coaches are always the scapegoats instead of any blame going towards the owner and GM, just like how the headcoaches and general managers were the scapecoats when Mills was here.
Under Cashman, the Yankees have been known to add signficant payroll through acquiring past their prime players, the same thing can be said of the Knicks when Mills was here.
Under Cashman, the Yankees have failed to draft and develop young talent, the same thing can be said of the Knicks when Mills was here.
Under Cashman, the Yankees have failed at surrounding their top player Aaron Judge with the right core of players, the same exact thing can be said of the Knicks under Mills when Melo was surrounded by third string players.
I wish I had more time to give an exhastive list of the similarities between the Knicks during the Mills era and the Yankees since Cashman was given full team control.
