Hilarious starts at the beginning of the show, about how the Yanks had 274 homers in the regular seasons—3, so far, in the postseason—and led the majors in slugging and homes.
Playoffs? They're down several hundred slugging points. Perfect illustration of how Cashie's philosophy fails every time in the playoffs. I have the sound off in my hotel room, but that bastard Smoltz is smiling like the Cheshire cat. Smile away, Johnny baby. But you didn't get to face those Yankee teams, ha-ha.
Hey !
I have a question….if someone grabbed Ken Rosenthal by his bow tie and swung him around really fast like a hammer toss in the Olympics, how far would he go when they let go ?
Love the look of almost open terror in Rodon's eyes. Oh, this bodes well!
Rodon 1-3 with a 6.66 ERA against Toronto. Ruh-roh. Sounds like the end times. But you knew that.
And … we’re done.
Hello? Hello? Anybody there? Mayday! Mayday! Anyone out there? This is the Titanic calling...
Well, it will be fun to see someone polish off these loathsome goons. I'm hoping for Seattle, but I'd settle for the Dodgers doing it.
Yeah, feed him that big meatball on 2-0. No point in putting him on, and having the next hitter beat that DP grounder to the third baseman. Holy shit, this is a stupid team.
V La d.
They did not walk him.
(Just in case you didn’t notice)
Guess I’m a Brewers fan for at least a few days.
WHY THE FUCK DO THEY CONTINUE TO PITCH TO FUCKIN VLAD.....ALL FUCKIN YEAR...NO ADJUSTMENT
Aaron hit a single !
And just to twist the knife a bit - an Ohtani ad was on the green screen behind home plate during Judge’s at-bat.
Michael Kay said today on his radio show that he sees no need to pitch around Vlad!
Incredible. The same play at first. This team is actually retarded. (And I know we're not supposed to use the "r" word. But still.)
Also, half the team swinging merrily away at the first pitch. As usual.
‘Mentally Challenged’
Rodon does look like he shat himself AND has stopped breathing
Nice of Toronto to give us a run with that error. So glad to see, too, that we are once again refusing to hit Judge and Stanton, back-to-back.
Amazing. Rodon struggling to put away Felafel.
Holy shit. And now he hit Gimenez, their .210 hitter.
That pitch never hit him
Not for enough
Survival food kit commercials.
Yay
1 pitch. 1 out. Savages?
No. It didn't.
But John schmuck said it did.
Good enough for mlb
I know. Makes you wonder if the ump's betting on the game.
Yeah, these are comically bad at-bats. They have no sense of the strike zone.
Also, Wells seemed surprised that Rodon's last pitch last inning was even being thrown. May have got lucky there.
Lavages
Tough to watch the awful approach of the Yankee hitters, swinging early, often, and wildly.
They finally walked Vlad
A walk and a line double to a guy hit .234 for them this year. Rodon is amazing.
Yankee Stadium: Farewell to Mystique and Aura
And now Chisholm doesn't seem to understand the defensive alignment. Stupid of Toronto not to run on Judge there, though.
Stoopid
Stoopid
Stoopid
This team continues to play with an unparalleled lack of urgency or instinct.
Stooopid
Beyond words. Bellinger acts as though he's never played LF before. And as for Boone, it looks like a replay of last year. He sits in his corner, silent, while his team falls apart.
Very well put, Hinkey, That's exactly it. They seem barely involved.
Face it, the team knows it’s over, and they’re playing like it.
In the medical field, that's known as "Torre and the Midges Syndrome."
But after all isn’t this Cashman’s plan ?
They are all playing in slo motion with zero urgency. Even Bellinger to forever to get that ball in on that throw from third. -- burn it all down.
And I've changed my mind about next year. Let Grisham AND Bellinger go. At least give Dominguez and Jones a chance.
If the bulk of their pay were dependent on wins in a bonus-based system, you'd see a lot more focus and engagement.
Yes.
Fire Blake and Boone
It's like what the announcers used to say about the Jets during the 80s and 90s - "mental problems."
Here is asshole boone, one of the architects of this disaster.
This is absolutely pathetic.
I just had the same thought. Bellinger's lack of hustle with the season on the line.
Are the fans booing yet. They should start a fire Cashman chant.
In Game 5 of last year’s World Series, the Yankees completely crumbled. LA exposed all their weaknesses and mocked them openly. A year later, nothing seems to have changed—they’re still the same uninspired, leaderless, and lifeless team. If humiliation and ridicule can’t spark change, what will?
Thanks for the laughs, guys. Best part of this predictably disastrous game.
Yankees are not only losing, but are being embarrassed on national TV in a three-game sweep. Heads should roll but won't because management and ownership have no shame or pride.
What a great idea.
Ownership has neither shame nor pride, but they do have money. Apparently, that seems to be enough.
Buck Martinez was right…
CC looks like he needs a drink.
Every Yankee fan needs a drink…
Well, they steadied the ship—at least for a moment. It's still sinking, but they steadied it...
Oh my god ... Boone just had the nerve to say that the Yankees were "putting good at-bats on 'em." George would fire him by the end of the game if he was still alive.
Cruz at least seems fired up. I hope he hits Laddie in the head.
That's supposed to be, "Vladdie," fucking spellcheck.
Actually a good move, pinch-hitting Rosario, even if it did not pay off...
...On the other hand, I do not understand the Yanks' righty-lefty-lefty-righty, 2-5 order. What's that about? Anyone?
I can see Boone saying "it's all right there in front of us" after this game. He's and idiot.
El Duque started a new thread. Not that it will help.
Aaron Boone is a Professional Idiot. He’s playing 4-dimensional chess in the multiverse.
Thanks, I thought that it was just me😱
Let's split the difference and just start calling him "Lassie"
Charlie Sheen: 'Life all comes down to a few moments. This is one of them.' Charlie said it but Judge will be living it after this commercial break...
HE DID IT
So, all 6 runs driven in by Stanton (2) and Judge (4). Thanks for showing up, everyone else.
And in the field! But...we are now on our 4th pitcher in the 5th inning.
I can deal with losing, but having to listen to the "Judge is a choker" narrative again would have been brutal.
Out of it! And I sense...a UVM coming up.
Exactly, Kevin! And even a loss here, now, would MAYBE force some of the media to focus on the major dysfunction with the rest of this team.
