Hinkey Haines said...: The Yankees suck ass.
The Yankees suck a lot of ass.
The Yankees - they suck.; June 24, 2025 at 9:10 PM
BTR999 said...: We need relievers
It’s a delicate balance
Boone can’t handle it; June 24, 2025 at 9:13 PM
BTR999 said...: We DO need better relievers. Can you imagine LeiteR/Loaisiga/Hamilton et al against the Dodgers or Mets?; June 24, 2025 at 9:17 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: More great maneuvering by the moron manager.

Yet, he will never be replaced.

Nor will the imbecile general manager.

Nor will the idiot nepo owner.

I have to resign myself to never seeing another Yankee championship.; June 24, 2025 at 9:20 PM
BTR999 said...: X-innings. You know what that means; June 24, 2025 at 9:50 PM
ranger_lp said...: It means Judge will strikeout…; June 24, 2025 at 9:57 PM
ranger_lp said...: Same thing…; June 24, 2025 at 9:58 PM
Pocono Steve said...: That's game. We lose. Nite nite.; June 24, 2025 at 9:59 PM
BTR999 said...: This team is un-fucking-believable. Another moment for Judge and he comes up small. Very, very, small…; June 24, 2025 at 10:01 PM
BTR999 said...: Reds will show us how its done; June 24, 2025 at 10:02 PM
ranger_lp said...: Yankees finally get a break…; June 24, 2025 at 10:12 PM
BTR999 said...: Wild Pitch!; June 24, 2025 at 10:16 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Judge will be pitching before this is done; June 24, 2025 at 10:22 PM
ranger_lp said...: Game’s over…; June 24, 2025 at 10:23 PM
AboveAverage said...: Jazz hazz zzero self control; June 24, 2025 at 10:24 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Or maybe not.
Won't be needed; June 24, 2025 at 10:24 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: Too predictable; June 24, 2025 at 10:29 PM
AboveAverage said...: The Yankees lost; June 24, 2025 at 10:33 PM
Carl J. Weitz said...: Kay mentioned that since the 2020 ghost runner, extra- innings rule became official, the Yankees had the worst road record in baseball. No conjecture by either him or O' Neill, but the answer is obvious: Aaron Boone.
His strategy is jaw- dropping. Take today as an example. Runners on second and third with no outs. Every other manager would intentionally walk the next batter to improve the odds of getting the runner on third via force play rather than a tag play. But BaBoone? Nope.; June 24, 2025 at 10:39 PM
Publius said...: Starting pitching has been top notch. Aaron Judge is Aaron Judge. Everything else is a second division. At best. Not a true contender. A 21st century contender, maybe, but not a true contender.; June 24, 2025 at 10:40 PM
AboveAverage said...: What are you saying….
Boone is an awful Skipper?
How right you are, Carl !; June 24, 2025 at 10:42 PM
BTR999 said...: Spot on Carl. It seems like boone never learns, never changes, never gets better. Until he’s gone the rest of the team won’t either.; June 24, 2025 at 10:45 PM
TheWinWarblist said...: Despicable.; June 24, 2025 at 10:50 PM
Publius said...: I really don't think it's Boone. It's so persistent and pervasive it must come from above. "Here's how we play extras".

Consider the source, but Clint Frazier recently said that Boone's a good guy, but he doesn't control anything. He's a PR guy, mostly. Everything...everything...is dictated from above.; June 24, 2025 at 10:52 PM
Rufus T. Firefly said...: If the manager is just a order taker and PR flack, could they at least replace him with a hot woman in revealing clothes?; June 24, 2025 at 10:56 PM
AboveAverage said...: So long as they replace all the coaches in the same way.

Such a terrific idea, Rufus!

Take a bow….; June 24, 2025 at 11:01 PM
AboveAverage said...: Sleep Well Yankee Fans
Know that we will contend well
Until we fail, RIGHT!; June 24, 2025 at 11:34 PM
