Wow. You can feel it - pure, raw-boned excitement is brewing across the Bronx, thanks to the "strong message" delivered to the Yankees by Captain Judge.
Sez the Yank firebrand:
"There's nothing we can do about the past 100-something games we've played. We've got to focus on what we can do now. That's all we can do."
By gum, Cappy's right! There's nothing they can do about the past 100-something games they've played. Those games are over, done, kaput. They been played. You can't go back and change them, unless you invent a time machine, and in the movies, whenever they try, they usually just end up having sex with somebody and conceiving themselves, even though it's weird. So, unless we want a dozen little Zolio Almontes running around the clubhouse, that's just not gonna work. Nope. As the Captain says, the Yankees have got to focus on what they can do now. Not on what they did or didn't do yesterday. If you think about it, that's all they can do. Stated eloquently, sir!
Likewise, Manager Boonie notes that Anthony Volpe's error yesterday was only "his first in a few weeks. He's been playing really well out there, made a bad throw." Russia, Russia, Russia.
Way to say it, Chief! I just wish more people listened, rather than getting bogged down on what happened in the past 100-something games, because there's nothing we can do about them and - wait! - I think this is the perfect time to mention Austin Wells Football Jersey Night, coming Sept 5, where the first 18,000 guests will receive an Austin Wells Football Jersey - just two days before CC Sabathia Hall of Fame Replica Plaque Day, where the first 40,000 guests - hopefully many will wear their new Austin Wells Football Jersey Night jerseys! - will receive a CC Sabathia Hall of Fame Replica Plaque. You'll want to hang them both over the mantle. Along with yourself.
So, any day now, it looks like the Yankees will be almost ready to make their run in the AL East, when they try to chase down and "hog-tie" those pesky Redsocks from Boston. An AL wild card berth is up for grabs, and the Yankees soon will be almost ready to make their move! But don't get bogged down by what happened in those last 100-something games. Just feel the electricity? Wow. Hon joo, Yankees!

After reading about yesterday’s debacle (I didn’t watch, better things to do) I had the following scary thought:
Does Hal even know how to replace Cashman if he wanted to? I always felt Hank was more like his father and Hal was the finance guy. By the time Hal was in the boss seat was there any baseball men in the room not hired by Cashman? Are there any dissenting voices left now?
If he actually cleaned house who leads the search for the next front office? I don’t think Hal knows enough about baseball to do it, everything he knows likely came from Cash.
BRIAN WAS ALWAYS RIGHT
SORRY, BUT I WAS TOO BUSY EJACULATING ON THE SCREEN - AND I'M CHANNELING THE MEMORY OF ALLCAPS HERE, BUT THE PROPER PHRASE IS:
BRIAN WAS RIGHT ABOUT EVERYTHING
Now, if you'd like to invest in my Yankcrypto Meme Coin©, please step this way.....muhahahahahaha....
The Yankees will feature "Yankees Crypto Coin Day" on September 23, 202. The first 40,000 get fleeced.
I woke up in a Soho doorway
A policeman knew my name
He said, "You can go sleep at home tonight
If you can get up and walk away"
I staggered back to the underground
And the breeze blew back my hair
I remember throwin' punches around
And preachin' from my chair
I'M DIRECTING THE DEPARTMENT OF YANKEE JUSTICE TO INVESTIGATE JOE TORRE, BOB WATSON AND GENE MICHAEL FOR PRETENDING TO WIN ALL TJISE GAMES. FAKE FAKE FAKE LOSERS. WE ARE THE CURRENT CHAMPIONS. TOSS GIRARDI IN THE CLINK ALSO. YAGA!!! YANKEES ARE GREAT AGAIN. THANK YOU FOR ATTENDING TO THIS ANTI-MATTER.
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Who are you?
Who, who, who, who?
Ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ooh wa ...
Who are YOU!
I see the brown acid was freely distributed this morning. Carry on all the carrying on that you do do.
I'd put in some lyrics here, but I can't stand the police. Bare naked ladies have much better stalker songs. Plus, their band name is much more pleasant.
Volpe has 10 strikes in his last 25 ABs (courtesy Bleeding Yankee Blue). I'm not anal enough to work in analytics, but I think that's bad. Really bad. And all the errors. And Wells thinks he's one of the best catchers in the league. I guess he means defensively. Or something. Maybe he means he can hit the urinal from the longest distance of any catcher in the league. Or something.
It's 4:30 here (16:30 to the Euro types), I'm sitting on the balcony drinking a vodka and tonic. Absolut, because I won't buy Russian. And listening to the music from the TV show "Peter Gunn." An old LP and it sounds absolutely great. Of course.
Didn't King George have a granddaughter or niece or someone who was good at baseball management? Swindal was the heir apparent but got booted when he and Jennifer got divorced. That is probably the greatest Yankees tragedy in our lifetime, because Swindal might have been in charge during the past almost-20 years. We got stuck with Hal.
In so many ways, a wonderful comment.
Yes, more tragic than Cory Lidle, who flew his little plane into an apartment tower on the far East Side, with the aftermath witnessed by a friend of mine.
RIP, Cory. You were a pretty good pitcher. We could use you.
“We’re definitely, I can only speak for myself, definitely angry,” Judge said. “Especially against your rivals. I don’t like to show like that here at home.”

Boone’s defense of Anthony Volpe’s 17th mistake overtly scandalous: ‘Playing really well’

Bizarro Superman say, "Me like losing. It gooder than winning us."
Hey JM?
Yes, AA?
Can Stanton request a trade? Can he wave his big salary and go play somewhere where he can win a ring? He's got more money than God, so he doesn't need the big paycheck. If I were him, I'd get the fuck out of this loser organization. He could help some team that's in the thick of it, where idiots like Boone and Cashman and Hal don't rule the roost.
Enjoy another Vodka tonic on me and keep on spinning’ some vinyl.
One month’til the Sparks, which I expect to enjoy a bunch more than this debacle of a season.
I’m root, root, rooting for some Rodon-Rot later today in da Bronx.
When the only redeeming value is how much worse is this shitshow gunna get, it’s still better than nothing.
Or participating as a subject at a root canal training seminar.
Why not the red Sox
Ah, Sparks. Had to miss them when they were around here. Though I'm going to make a real effort to get to Paris in early November to see the JACK Quartet. They do contemporary classical, if you can call it that. A friend back in NY loves them and says every show is a trip. Sounds good to me.
By the way, Boone is an idiot. Blackburn is a disaster, along with most of the Brain's other pitching pickups. Boone not only called to bring him in, a mistake already, but left him in for seven runs. I know it was a longshot for our crap team to score four in the ninth, but it could have been possible by the slimmest of odds. Boone made sure it wouldn't be on the table.
