This FO brought two World Championships and for that I am grateful. However, I have never experience a collapse like this. For this, I will never forgive them.

 

They are a very bad combination of personalities. They don't match up well with each other and the manager does not match up well with the team that he now has. Funny people have nipped around the topic of Tito and Theo not being on the same page. Whether he knew he was doing it or not, Theo has transformed this team into a team that is virtually impossible for Tito to manage. Not saying Tito is a great manager but he has no shot with this team.

 

The Crawford deal is the poster child for this mess with Drew, Lackey and Julio not far behind. I don't know what is worse. If John Henry wanted the Crawford deal and Theo did not have the ammo to dissuade him that sucks. If Theo wanted Crawford that is even worse. In my view Theo is too reliant on his computer generated numbers to make determinations about free agent players and does not believe in scouting. While we are at it, how do we feel about Theo bringing Salty here?

 

On top of everything else Theo is so insistent that he is right about players that he signs them to these ridiculously long contracts that we are doomed to eat.

But feel free to text John Lackey.

 

If that'll make him pitch better s*** give me his number. I'll break his damn heart and make sure he throws a perfect game.

 

Seriously though all that s*** he was talking about making the playoffs and nothing to show for it. He needs to shut his mouth until we actually have a guaranteed spot. You know how foolish this will look if we miss the playoffs?

It will take 2 wins to force a 1 game playoff. I don't see that happening. The Yankees have absolutely no incentive to win. This is what I have feared for 3 weeks. Lester loses his last 3 starts. Beckett loses his last 2 starts. Papelbon blows a game and Bard has melted down 2-3 times. All of this has happened in this run. It has nothing to do with injuries. It has nothing to do wit fatigue. Beckett, Lester and Papelbon were coddled all year. Their workloads were very carefully managed. They just couldn't step up at all.
