OT: NY Yankees 2025 Season Thread (Hal is cheap, Brian is dumb)

[Papi_swav]

sheeshh that was bad from Williams. We should let Cruz be our closer for this year. Hope Williams can rebound but he's a free agent after this year so it's make or break season for him. Hope we don't give him a massive contract. Weaver we absolutely need to re sign, and he's like 35 years old so he shouldn't break the bank, maybe a little 2-3 year deal or so.

[blue and orange]

Weaver is 31 come on guys google is your friend lol.

[knicks94]

Weaver is 31 come on guys google is your friend lol.

I really do not follow what teams outside of NY or the AL East do. And I am usually not one to look up players' profiles unless I want to prove a point.

[knicks94]

Why does every move Cashman make turns out to be a bad one?

Signing Hicks to a 7 year deal
Choosing Stanton over Harper
Giving DJLM an extention
Trading for a washed up Josh Donaldson
Signing Rodon to 6 years
Handing over the keys to the kingdom to an unproven Volpe
Trading away Monty for a guy in a walking boot
Trading for the injured Frankie Montas
Trading away pitching depth for a one year rental in Soto
Trading for Clay Holmes 2.0 in Devin Williams


The fact that this man has kept his job for nearly thirty years despite blunder after blunder is one of the greatest head-scratching mysteries of modern times.

[Papi_swav]

Weaver is 31 come on guys google is your friend lol.

lol bro don't nobody got time to be doing all that. But dang that might not be good that he's 31 lol Cashman is going to give him a 10 year contract

The fact that this man has kept his job for nearly thirty years despite blunder after blunder is one of the greatest head-scratching mysteries of modern times.

yea he makes alot of bad decisions in hindsight but at that time it might of not been too bad. Look at it this way,

-Hicks had a career year and alot of ppl thought that contract was a steal at that time, but then he fell off a cliff.
-Stanton was coming off an MVP year and 59 home runs so ppl thought he would of hit 70 home runs in YS and we didn't trade much for him. Me personally I wouldn't of took on Stanton and his contract because of other players available like you said but ehh
-DJ was coming off 2 years of almost winning batting titles, imagine had Cashman not signed DJ at that time, Yankee fans would of called for his head, but I definitely wouldn't of given him 6 years at that age, maybe 4 at most. But he fell off a cliff too right after he resigned, i though we would of at least got 2 great more years out of him. I'm not blaming Cash for this one, his hands were tied, Dj was a beloved player.
-That Donaldson trade was horrible ! IDK why he did that and Donaldson was known to be a bad teammate around clubhouses
-I didn't like Rodon signing either to begin with. I would of gotten rid of him last offseason after he had a decent year, now were stuck with him but hopefully he can have another solid year and we can get rid of him but we might need to eat some money tbh but we for sure need to get rid of him asap because his contract is not going to age well that's for sure
-I mean at some point you have to give the kids room to develop, Volpe has played ok so far but still room to grow. We know he's a gold glove defender which is super valuable at shortstop, we just need his bat to improve. He's a legit 20 home run 20 stolen base kind of player, we just need more contact hitting and on base percentage from him. He's been average at least and he's still cheap so no worries on him yet.
-The Monty trade sure sucked at the time, but he's been horrible since he got that new big contract but yea the trade was bad
-Montas was another bad trade, we need to stop trading for the Oakland pitchers and guys with injury history
-Idk about the Soto one, yes in hindsight its bad because he didn't re sign but we got a historical year out of him. Michael king has been tremendous for the Padres but the other guys we traded not so much. King is free agent after this year so maybe we sign him again
-yea Williams has been sh**ing the bed so far, and supposedly he has 2 back injuries which is why Brewers traded him, they might of suckered us. Cashman definitely should of learned by now to not trade for pitchers that has injury history that lingers.

But let's give him some credit too,
-he got Cruz who is pitching lights out so far after having an up and down career.
-Weaver was a diamond in the rough that he found
-Grisham was a nice lowkey find with the soto trade and he's having a awesome year so far
-he founded Cortes
-got Chisolm for cheap
-got Trevino for nothing who won the platinum glove
-and yea that might be all i got lol he's probably done more bad than good but he's definitely not the worst. Baseball is tough but it seems like Cashman is good at finding lowkey players but he s***s the bed when signing bigger deals.

[KnicksGadfly]

Smh some of those Cincinnati Reds are getting 8 at bats this game against the Orioles…crazy

[Rich Rane]

Yankees have won all 5 of Fried's starts and he's kept his numbers down. He's doing ace things.

Picked up a key divisional/AL series going 3-1 you could definitely feel they should've swept. I'm not ready to rule Devin Williams out just yet. His stuff is still elite and the exit velo is still down. He can't be walking the Number 9 hitter though going forward. And all that said, even if he bounces back and has an amazing season, I don't see the Yankees re-signing him considering what Tanner Scott got from the Dodgers.

[blue and orange]

You can add a hr to Judge stats it's the least mlb should do how do you miss this badly even with instant replay.

[Starksfor3yes]

You can add a hr to Judge stats it's the least should do how do you miss this badly even with instant replay.

Man if Judge ends up with 62 hr or 73 he is going to be pissed.

-and yea that might be all i got lol he's probably done more bad than good but he's definitely not the worst. Baseball is tough but it seems like Cashman is good at finding lowkey players but he s***s the bed when signing bigger deals.

-Before Cashman foolishly gave Hicks a 7 year contract he was an injury prone player who no team was willing to sign. He has a career high in homeruns and Cashman thinks he struck gold by finding the second coming of Bernie Williams.

-Stanton was another guy who couldn't stay on the field. Add to the fact that he was a poor man's Judge defensively in RF and didn't fit this team. The Yankee lineup didn't need another right handed dominant slugger after Judge had that season in which he was robbed of an MVP. Bryce Harper was by far the better all around player and fit for the team. The sad thing is that Harper actually wanted to be here and was never given that opportunity, unlike Soto who simply used the Yankees as leverage.

-DJ's numbers were greatly inflated by the juiced ball season and the Covid shortened season. By the time he left Colorado he was already 30 years old and his career stats were on a decline. It was plain idiocy to give a guy on the wrong side of 30 a 6 year contract despite the numbers he previously put up.

-Volpe has been by far the greatest disappointment given how much he was hyped up to be Cashman's Jeter and how he was treated as the Yankees golden boy without earning his role in the majors. How many more seasons do we give him before we conclude that at best he is a Rey Ordonez clone?

-The Soto trade depleted our pitching depth. Hal and Cashman had no business trading for him when the team had so many holes and question marks entering last year's season. And a rotation that has Fried, Rodon, Gil, King, Schmidt and Vasquez is by far an upgrade over a rotation of Fried, Rodon, Gil, Schmidt, Warren, Carrasco and Stroman.

-I credit Matt Blake for Weaver, Cruz and Nestor more than I do Cashman. And I wouldn't call Trevino and Jazz great moves. Trevi had one decent half a season in 3 full seasons with the Yankees. Jazz's tenure here so far has been meh.

For the payroll that Cashman was given, the Yankees should have been in the World Series a lot more than they have over the last 15 years. Why is it that GMs who have a lot less to work with are better at developing young talent and constructing a roster? Let's be real, Cashman hasn't been the GM of this franchise for nearly 30 years because he has such a great baseball mind. No, he's here because of nepotism and the incompetence of the Yankee owner.

-and yea that might be all i got lol he's probably done more bad than good but he's definitely not the worst. Baseball is tough but it seems like Cashman is good at finding lowkey players but he s***s the bed when signing bigger deals.

So I think the biggest thing with Cashman is that basically, there are two things hindering him. One, Hal is 100% hurting this team with his cheapness, and he honestly doesn't care. Two, Cashman is not very good at doing the type of deals that his "cheaper" peers are able to do. In particular, if we compare him with the Dodgers, he's light years behind.

I would lump Hicks, Stanton and DJLM into one single category: the "I didn't want to spend money on Harper and Machado so I tried to be a smartass about it" type of move. Cashman used Hicks as an excuse not to sign Harper; DJLM as an excuse not to sign Machado; Stanton as an excuse not to sign both. The only reason why Cashman was stuck in this position of having to resign DJLM was because Hal didn't want to get the stars and Cashman thought too highly of himself. So yea, we had to sign DJLM. Years later, this type of failure led us to trade for guys like Rizzo and Donaldson and also make a desperation trade for Juan Soto. I look back, and I think...wow, you should have just effin paid Harper instead of wasting Judge's prime like this.

The Donaldson trade was also an example of the Yankees trying to be cute again and avoid FAs. Ironically, I think the Twins ended up using the money saved from the Donaldson deal to get Correa on a 1 year steal. Rodon...yea, this one is tough to say. It really also depends on how much Blake believes in him. He's basically JR Smith, but we really don't have other alternatives at this point.

I agree with the kids. We can't sign all the studs in FA and it's nice to have homegrown guys. But when you have guys on those super cheap contracts, we should be spending on talent to surround them.

Finally, the biggest thing we need to do with Cashman is evaluate how we lost the World Series last year. He got us there, but were there moves he could have made to get us over the hump? I would argue that that last season is where he got exposed. The Dodgers made all the right FA signings and right trade deadline moves, and we paid a heavy price for it. The Flaherty saga is an example of this. The Yankees throw away a prospect in a failed trade, get super cute and try to renegotiate for Jack Flaherty in the deadline, the Dodgers use our previous prospect to get Flaherty, and boom, now we're facing him in a World Series. Cashman got his ass kicked so hard.

Another example might be how the Yankees and Dodgers addressed their outfield gap. We got Verdugo, another failed Dodgers prospect, who the Yankees also used as an excuse to sabotage Jasson last year, which led to Jasson being thrown into the postseason without enough experience. Meanwhile, the Dodgers got Teoscar Hernandez's all star season on a 1 year contract.

[knicks94]

The Yankees should very well replace Boone if they want to go to the next level. Look at how Carlos Mendoza is playing a Kenny Atkinson role with the Mets and tell me that a managerial change doesn't make a difference in baseball.

Let's be real, Cashman hasn't been the GM of this franchise for nearly 30 years because he has such a great baseball mind. No, he's here because of nepotism and the incompetence of the Yankee owner.

-True about Hicks, but 10 mill a year is a great deal after he had a 4.7 WAR season, it's just the length of the contract was way too long.
-Stanton yea, I said I wouldn't of did that deal in the first place because of reasons you stated
-I don't believe DJ numbers were inflated, he had those same type of seasons with the Rockies. I just think age caught up with him at the wrong time. I remember vividly that off season, and guys were already ripping Cashman to resign DJ. I'm not blaming him for that one but I'm def blaming him for a 6 year contract. I just said I would of did a 4 year deal tops

-Bro literally every yankees prospect gets hyped up, can you tell me one yankee prospect that didn't get hyped up? Gleyber Torres was the 2nd coming of Jeter back then and especially after that monster 38 home run season then he fell off a cliff. Clint Frazier was hyped up. Freakin Joba Chamberlain was hyped up. Yes Volpe was hyped up too but us Yankee fans have a problem of overhyping guys and we need to pipe down a little. Yes I thought Volpe would of been better, we all did but he's been average at the least. Atleast he's not terrible defensively at a main position like Torres was and if his bat keeps improving then it'll be fine. He's still really cheap, Volpe is not a problem, yet. He might not be a Lindor or corey Seager but I'm fine with him for now. If he was getting 20 million a season than it's a problem but we have to give guys time to develop. Would you rather have gave Correa 250 million dollars to play half a season ?
-Hindsight is 20/20 . If we resigned Soto than we wouldn't be having this conversation but we didn't so now it looks like a black eye. Yes King would of been awesome to stay here but getting an everyday generational talent like Soto is not an everyday thing and him and Judge was a dynamic duo. You wanted guys like Harper and Machado but get mad when we actually do make a deal for a guy thats even better than them lol which is it? I wouldn't say the Soto trade depleted our depth, we had to give something up, King is a free agent after this year but Randy Vasquez I wouldn't even mention. He's having a good year "so far" but last year he didn't so the jury is still out on him. If Cole was here than our starting depth is not so depleted, we didn't know Cole was going to be out before we traded for Soto
-You credit only Matt Blake for those guys? I mean yea he gets most of the credit but you have to give credit to Cashman too for even getting those guys because he knows what his guy Matt Blake can do. Cortes, Weaver, Cruz were having an up and down career until Cashman said "these guys have good stuff and I know my guy Matt blake can get the most out of them". Gotta give some props to Cash too bro

-To sum this up, yes Cashman hasn't been great and yes we can do better but, we can also do worse. The thing is you don't know who you're getting if we get another GM, you got to think about that. Imagine we get a guy like Nico Harrison here lmaooo and then he trades Judge, you have to think about that. Cashman is not great but he's not horrible, he's extremely mid, he has his strengths and weaknesses . But I think this falls more on Hal for being a cheapskate at the end of that day he's the boss. I agree on most things you said, I wish we never got Stanton because he really held us back from other stars. We made the World Series last year and probably could of won, lets look on the bright side, we just gotta be smarter from here on out. If the kids can play well in the show than we're mostly set. Wells, Rice, Dominguez, Volpe, Schmidt and Gil. I those guys can play well up here plus more than we'll have a bunch of years of control of those guys for really cheap. Then we can sign a big free agent like Tucker etc.. with money still left over. But we need to get rid of these ugly contracts like Rodon, Stanton and DJ.

[MrDollarBills]

Williams' ERA is like 9.

What the f*ck are we doing here?

[MrDollarBills]

Volpe just cannot hit

[knicks94]

Volpe just cannot hit

Hard to win when the Yankees have 5 different hitters in their lineup batting below .180.

Why the heck do we even have a hitting coach if this is the crap that this team produces?

[Rich Rane]

Runners on 2nd and 3rd, nobody out, and 3 straight SOs. Absolutely aggravating.

[Rich Rane]

Great outing from Rodon today: 7 IP, 8 Ks, 1 R (unearned), 4 Hs, 2 BBs

[KnicksGadfly]

Great outing from Rodon today: 7 IP, 8 Ks, 1 R (unearned), 4 Hs, 2 BBs

Gotta give him props. Two great games in a row. Very efficient today
