    In my opinion everything in the Yankees organization starts from the top down. It's obvious that the new Steinbrenners' main goal isn't winning, but rather finding the most cost effective way to keep fans watching the games and paying for tickets/merch. That then filters down to Cashman trying to put together the most cost effective and marketable team rather than the team most likely to win, and hiring less qualified coaches because they're cheaper. The Yankees reset their luxury tax in 2021 and will most definitely be over the threshold in 2022, so by all means they should be big spenders this offseason. If they stand pat and continue to scrounge the garbage piles of players then that should tell us all we need to know about what's important to ownership.

    That didn't happen (at least not yet). Don't be scaring us like that.

    I don't think injuries affected this year's team as much as prior years. Judge/Stanton/Cole were mostly healthy all year. We did have a lot of supporting players miss time but I think the underperformance of healthy players was the biggest issue (primarily DJ, Torres, Frazier, Gio). And Pyth record is a pointless stat so I don't think it proves anything. A team can win a single game by 20 runs and then lose the next 20 by 1 run, and Pyth record would suggest that they should be .500. The Yankees have had a highly ranked bullpen over the last decade and have won more close games because of it, so it would make sense for their expected Win% to be lower.

    It was a disappointing season by our standards. But it's not like this was some s*** team. They underperformed and still won 92 games. Depending on what moves the team makes and progression/regression of players, this team could still come back next season and win 100 games. Or 80. Who knows. I'll probably be more inclined to speculate and dream on it in March.

    Did they announce the attendance in that shitbox? Best team in the AL playing their rival in the playoffs and the place looks 75% empty.

    Nestor would never do that to Bronxie. He'd at least make turtle soup out of him.

    Well can still get 7 and a half hours of sleep. Hope I wake up to news of Boone being canned. Enjoy your win.
  11. bkzwhitestrican
    Bahaha okay you got me, I say congrats but deep down I'm thinking **** all these Sox fans and I hope your team gets eviscerated next round.
  12. bkzwhitestrican
    I know it's not over until it's over, but I think I'd prefer to get 8 hours of sleep tonight. Congrats to your team, they were much better than the Yanks today.
  13. bkzwhitestrican
    Well that's likely a wrap.
  14. bkzwhitestrican
    Green either gives up 3 or 0 runs here.
  15. bkzwhitestrican
    That was a meatball of a hanging slider that Gio fouled off right before striking out. Besides the solo HR the Yanks offense hasn't been able to do anything with mistake pitches besides foul em off.

    Boone one batter too late. Always trying to squeeze extra outs out of pitchers no matter the circumstance
  17. bkzwhitestrican
    I wasn't alive yet. I do enjoy the clip of it, but it's lost its effect after the 18th time ESPN showed it.
  18. bkzwhitestrican
    f*** that wall 😠

    I would go with Cash. He always seems to get the most out of his teams and maximizes the strengths of everyone on his roster. Plus I don't think they would allow Cora to win so soon after coming back from suspension, regardless of if he deserves it.

    This is going to be super stressful. To either knock out or be knocked out of the playoffs by your worst enemy, elation or despair, good (Yankees of course ) vs. evil.

    He managed with urgency which was refreshing, but in any case the offense needs to get going for them to have a chance. Being shutout by 5+ERA Michael Wacha (and every subsequent reliever until the 9th) in the biggest game of the year is a failure by the offense, and while everyone in relief on our end held up it's too much to ask of them to be perfect every game.
  22. bkzwhitestrican
    That was impressive. Hate to say it but Devers is one of the best players in baseball.
  23. bkzwhitestrican
    Gallo was hit on the wrist with a pitch last night too so if he misses any amount of time then that would be a double blow, with Voit also not being able to fill in (assuming Stanton plays LF and Voit would've DH'd). What a s***** game last night.
  24. bkzwhitestrican
    Disappointing game from Cole. Hope it wasn't a preview of what he will bring to the Wild Card game (if the Yanks make it).
  25. bkzwhitestrican
    No limp on that one
