The Red Sox haven't always followed this approach (the departures of Cherington and Dombrowski).
-
And it takes even more patience than usual this year, with pitching dominating like we haven't seen for a long time.
-
But Moncada had posted strong numbers at every level before being promoted. Duran has not done that, not by a long shot.
-
I don't think anyone is saying it "sucked all along". Personally, I'm just saying that if the 2021 Yankees underperform, it's probably more Cashman's fault than Boone's. Look at the first base position. Yankee first basemen have a .529 OPS. .529! Whose fault? Well, I think Cashman is the guy responsible for Mike Ford and Jay Bruce. Cashman is the guy who thinks Torres is an adequate major league shortstop. Cashman is the guy who loads up on big muscular injury-prone hitters. With all that said, the Yankees are still very much alive this year.

Not true. People were talking about their roster construction after a few games this year. The home run or strikeout offense approach and the bad defense. You can check on this thread for yourself.
-
Well, we can certainly shuffle the lineup. But do you think it would have made a big difference the last 2 games if we did?
-
We all knew Bloom was working on a small budget this offseason, signing guys like Kike and Marwin as our 'big acquisitions' for position players. Blame it on who you want, I guess.
-
Coincidentally, Mookie is tied for 4th on the Dodgers in runs scored this year with a paltry 27.
-
They already made one attempted upgrade by replacing Cordero with Santana. Duran is now with the Olympic team. Cora said Duran needs to get at-bats. Duran has played 18 games above AA. He posted a .634 OPS in his only AA season, in 2019. I think Cora is probably right.
-
I don't know. I think Boone is a bit of a doofus, but in his only 2 full seasons they won 100 and 103. This year's team is on Cash, IMO. Bad roster construction, as we have discussed. And the farm help seems to have dried up.
-
f*** you, Marwin! Grab some pine. There, that's a start.
-
Why?
-
2020 was also a championship for his team.
-
Who gets sent down from the rotation once Sale is back?

Unlucky, plus the building back up thing. -
Mookie had a good game last night. He's probably going to make the naysayers (including me) eat their words.
-
I think most of the blame for the current Yankees woes has to go on Cashman and his roster construction.
-
Boone has a .605 winning pct., is 3 for 3 in playoff appearances, and this season is far from over.
-
A wise baseball man once said 'Every team is going to win 60 and lose 60. It's what happens in the other 42 that counts.' I think tonight was one the 60 guaranteed losses.
-
Our 2015 staff was just kind of bizarre. Buchholz, Porcello, Miley, Kelly and Masterson. We not only didn't have a #1, we arguably didn't have a #2. And our bullpen was not good. Meanwhile we signed Pablo, Hanley and Rusney. It was an ugly offseason. And it led to another last place finish.

E-Rod is obviously not 100% physically because of his COVID issues and missed time. -
You wish we had him from 2015 to now?
-
100%.
-
Mookie was a late scratch from yesterday's game, officially because of severe allergy problems.
-
Who gets sent down from the rotation once Sale is back?
Bellhorn04 replied to TylerD's topic in Boston Red Sox Talk
The first question is when will Sale be back. -
3 division titles and 1 championship in 4 years. Please, Larry, let it go.
