I am still in utter disbelief about last night's game. When Boone had Weaver close instead of Williams the other day I really thought he was going to stick with that decision. I didn't think that Boone had it in him to give this guy his job back so suddenly. And counting on any relief pitcher who hadn't pitched in nearly a week to hold a one run lead is playing with fire. Fans like to blame Williams for the loss, but this is completely on Cashman and Boone. Cashman for trading for this choke artist and Boone for putting his team in the best position to fail.

Like literally Judge is at the apex of the sport and we are wasting his career because Hal is cheap, and Brian is dumb.

Not mad at all. My team wins world series and at least makes it to them. Every year since the 90s Mets fans have been talking shyt every April and how does that end? Usually? They don't even make the playoffs!Enjoy your 18-7 start. Just don't act like anyone over here gives a shyt.
You obviously give big huge shyts or you wouldn’t be so damn mad.
Delusional Mutts fans. No one cares about your team. Remember 2000? I sure do.

Fried pitched a beauty once again, dude is a real Ace. As for Weaver being the closer, I really like Weaver being our relief pitcher where we can throw him out whenever we need him. I'd prefer to make Cruz the closer because Weaver is the kind of guy you can put in the 4th inning when we're in trouble and he slows things down for 3 innings, or we can put him in the 7th inning when it's a 1 run game and he pitches for 1.2 innings. I feel like that's the perfect spot for him, I don't want to waste him by just making him pitch 1 inning. I mean we can def use him there at times, but I like having the leisure of using him when most needed because he's reliable in any inning.

Dang if we treated Clay Holmes like Devin Williams last year, we might have had home field advantage.
Welcome back, Weaver...you're a true Yankees. I don't want to hear any other reliever being compared to Mo, ever.

My whole problem with Williams is everyone including the Yankees know that he has historically bad numbers to start the season until May/June.
So why not just put Williams in low leverage situations until he's ready to get slotted in the closer role. Makes no damn sense but hey they had to wait till he blew 3-4 saves to make that decision.

11.2 ERA.
How the f*ck are you a closer with an ERA of 11.2
Brian sets Hal's money on fire. Literally on fire.

I think there's some precedent for his early season struggles and bounceback but the last time he dealt with those issues were during the 2021-2022 and 2022-2023 seasons. Guess he was hurt last year so we couldn't tell, but I guess we'll see if this guy is made for New York in the next few months.

Nothing lights a fire under the “struggling” Orioles like a visit from the Yankees.

Damn I thought Warren had improved but he's the same old kid who is playing with fire. He was in trouble every single inning he pitched...just send him down.
