Yes, Flouncy Cole came up small again today.
No, he is not a big-game pitcher.
But we knew that.
Infinitely worse: yet another, inexplicable failure at the plate.
Five hits, five walks, and two errors by the BoSox, who pitched a guy named Bayan Bello, with a 4.70 ERA.
One run.
This is the worst, clutch-hitting Yankees team I have ever seen. This is the most disengaged, uninspired, generally lifeless Yankees team I have ever seen.
Wait, did I say "inexplicable failure"? Silly me.
The Yankees were playing a day game after a night game. And it was hot.
You can't expect young men averaging over $10 million for their half-year of work to get up for playing on an afternoon after they played the evening before. Especially when it's warm out.
Let's just hope they can find their way to the Stadium tomorrow. Or maybe not.

It was pathetic, AA. As was the intentional walk itself. But this was yet another game in which the whole team didn't show up. If Cole pitches to Devers, chances are we're looking at another, teeth-grinding, 2-1 loss, instead of 7-1. Not much of a difference in the end. This is just not a team that shows up much of the time.
The lackadaisical attitude comes from the top. Since baseball began, teams that have had ass kicking management tend to have done better. It’s the nature of the beast. Baseball players need their butts kicked once in a while. Especially the super rich ones. Nobody cares on Yankees anymore. Nobody We are left holding the bag and clutching our hearts in our hands. I’m a Yankee fan forever, but I am so sick of them at the moment.
Forever doesn't last forever any more . . .
mr. bit, is as usual, spot on. And hoss continues to be our oracle.
And, bad for us, HAL continues to be a spoiled whiny nepo baby. And, bad for us, Ca$hole and Bonehead continue to run the team as if to TRY to drive fans away.
Bitty is, as always, THE MAN.
Rooooooooofuzz - is your buddy gunna be at the game next Sunday in Oakland?
Getting hard to care about this team.
my advice Kevin, stay flaccid for this team
Billy and Casey turning over in their grave. Zimmer, McCarthy, Huggins too. Disgusting. Pathetic. And then listening to Boone afterwards. omg.
Cole's call for the intentional walk shows that he's managerial material. Look for him when Boone is done.
No, our friend that lived in Saratoga sold his house and fled to Sedona. Must have been in anticipation of the A's moving to Lost Wages. Or anticipating retirement...
...he's actually heading to the game today. Right field line, where the wall is sloped. Two aisle seats. He'll have his jersey with all the retired numbers. He usually gets on TV with it
I thought you'd say 'my advice is to drink heavily'. But staying flaccid, that'll work.
