Ten reasons why the '27 Yankees and their fans should phone it in.
1. The owner's been phoning it in for years.
2. The ownership lockout will ruin 2027 anyway.
3. Under Aaron Boone, the Yankees already tank each June.
4. Tampa regularly tanks; it works for them.
5. The Brewers, Rangers, Astros, Nats, Redsocks, Royals and Cubs all have recent world championships; at various points, they tanked.
6. Tanking would be easy; not even Cashman could mess it up.
8. One of these days, as impossible as it seems, the Mets will rise from constant tanking.
9. With our new draft picks and international spending money, we can load up with Dax Kilbys and Martians.
10. The 2027 winter is already lost, as NYC follows the Giants' march to the Super Bowl.

"7. Keep Rice, Schlittler, Jones and Lombard- trade everybody else - and poof! Soon, it's 2028."
A good idea. It'll never happen, of course, mostly because it would involve trying to trade big contracts and paying the salary of guys who are playing somewhere else. We can't even bench guys who are making good money, so trading them? Yeah, I dunno.
But I do like it. This team looks and acts tired. Too many guys who have tried too hard in too many non-ring seasons. The failure is now a part of them. They don't know how to win the big games. It's almost like they subconsciously fuck up to make sure the season ends early.
Don’t forget Tank Girl……
(OKOKOK - maybe we should)
Had to look it up. Before breakfast. Not pretty.
