L'Chaim!

 Trash C-Money all you like, but this small-market GM seems to be on a much hotter seat right now.

He must have mentored under Cashman

Pretty funny, Archie! And good to see that the Sox are having their troubles.

Celerino Sanchez said...

They'll still win a WS before we do

Publius said...

Signed Refsnyder though. Gotta give him that.

Joe of AZ said...

Giants signed stripling right from under Cashmans nose 🙄

May be a sign regarding Rodon

It it wasn't the Sux, who would care.

The Yankees are an embarrassment. The Intern totally shit the bed and mis-Judged his bargaining position and is a bigger fool twice over - our twin towers are going to be scrap metal in a few years. There are no baseball minds on River Avenue. Only profound mediocrity.

Look at what Atlanta has done. Same thing can be said of San Diego. They've gotten younger and better the past two years by dealing from a position of creativity and strength. Two characteristics that are sorely missing in the Bronx.

By my reckoning, regardless of whether The Intern (who must have covid, because he can't seem to smell anything worthwhile) signs Rodon (who is not worth the money and time he's asking) or even Oh!Tani, the Yankees have fallen even farther behind among elite MLB teams. They are no longer among the elite and certainly nothing to be feared in October.

Another fool hired as GM. The fans in Boston will revolt and with a lot of empty seats at Fenway. He will soon be gone. Damage already done.

Off topic, Syracuse won the NCAA soccer championship (on PKs, but it still counts). Jim Brown, Ernie Davis, Larry Csonka, Gerry McNamara and now the "College Cup". Soccer's inter-league rules and logistics are tough to understand but, and I'm happy to be corrected if I'm off the mark here, I think this means whichever team wins the "World Cup" plays Syracuse at Yankee Stadium on December 29 for the "Pinstripe Cup".

yeah, what Dick said.

This team management would be an upgrade if they could get to suckitude.

Apologies to mr. bit for stealing his trademark phrase.

Please, just make it stop.

HAL, sell the team.

New owners, fire the Ca$hole.

Start from fucking scratch. The team has the money, the cashflow and the fanbase to be a juggernaut again.

Not with the current cast of idiots.

And I'm a Mad Magazine fan.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Oh, and L'Chaim to all that celebrate next week.

And Cheers, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Festivus and whatever holiday you care to celebrate.

I'm heading to Waikiki for the winter. Fuck HAL, Fuck Randy, Fuck Ca$hole, Fuck Boonie, fuck all the front office.

Merry Fucking New Year.

My tribe. I love you all. NEVER SURRENDER! Cash must go.

HoraceClarke66 said...

Right with you, Bitty! The Judge Honeymoon is over—not that Cash seems to have done much even there, save get played like a high-school senior on his first trip to Vegas.

Rufus has a good point: when you look at the overall situation, instead of the year-by-year inching ahead, and the huge effort to get to a playoff spot, this Yankees team SHOULD be a juggernaut.

Almost no one else in MLB has a fan base like this anymore. New York is one of the very, very few cities in America where baseball may be more popular than even football—largely due to how bad the football has been in recent years.

Taking all our advantages into account, HAL should launch an all-out effort to make the Yankees a regular, World Series participant, AND secure their shaky top spot in the city.

But he won't.

The Archangel said...

Every offseason recently seems to replicate a cult waiting for the end of times.
"Yes flock, any day now, the rapture will set you free.
Yanks; "We made a substantial offer to ______, the rumor is that the will sign with us."

The Archangel said...

Correa just signed with the Giants for $350 mil over 13 years. Will be paying him into his 40s.
These owners must be flush with cash.
Well, we will see him play on Opening Day.
He'll probably take Cole deep in the 2nd or 3rd inning and Yanks will lose 7-5 on their way to an 82-80 season.
"Well, our streaking of over .500 is preserved" said Cashman and Boonie on October 5, said Hal at the Winter Meetings.

Wow, well that IS crazy.
