...Thanks, Joe FOB, it was indeed very interesting.<br /><br />I think the HAL calculation here, though, is that if he did NOT keep on Chapo with this small, average bump, the pressure would've become overwhelming to get a top starter, a Strasburg or a Cole, for at least something like $30 mill a year and maybe $300 mill for the whole contract.<br /><br />That is simply unacceptable for HAL who, we must remember, has assigned himself the difficult task of maximizing profits while still convincing us, the fans, that he is sincerely trying to win the World Series. This can be a fine line, and I think he's walked it here, convincing all those optimists you read on other blogs that our great, world-beating closer is coming back and, hey, maybe the Yanks have a plan!!

Another World Series loss when Nick "Sling Blade" Johnson got picked off third, Bernie's ball almost got out of the park, and Wells couldn't go...<br /><br />All very frustrating, and an omen. But the kind of freaky stuff that can happen under the idiotic, "everybody into the pool" playoff rules of the New Baseball.<br /><br />Then it started to get worse. The Fiasco in Fenway that was the worst thing I've ever experienced in my sports-watching life. <br /><br />Then the way we started to lose repeated series to the same teams. We couldn't beat the Angels, then we couldn't beat the Tigers, then the Red Sox, now the Astros...<br /><br />These weren't flukes anymore, but indications that other teams were just better. <br /><br />Still, we contended as long as we had the remaining Core of Four from the ancien regime, picked up that 2009 trophy. Cashman couldn't WAIT to push those guys out the door. After 2012, it was all done, and we'd see what he could do on his own.<br /><br />And here it is: The Dynasty That Never Was, its stars already having lost their luster, imploded, blinked out. <br /><br />We hung on to some of the old crew—such as CC—too long out of nostalgia and gratitude for what they had done.<br /><br />We're hanging on to Chapo out of...what, exactly? Our nostalgia and gratitude, as Duque notes, for the Devery home run, the Altuve home run? His sparkling personality and lovable character?<br /><br />Soon we'll have more to add to that list. Thanks for the memories, Chappie.

His numbers belie his uselessness. He gets saves that others can get. He blows big games that another closer might win. He's a dick. A spectacular dick.<br /><br />Second, this means that Cashman will never change. Same old stupid, unimaginative, never-outside-the-box thinking that got us here - with one World Series in the last 15 years and that was a bit of an outlier. He is a HORRIBLE GM and we have wasted more or Poor Hal's money on bad pitching than the whole league combined.<br /><br />Third - King George, the mad asshole that we loved and hated in equal parts, would have already had a lunch date planned with Strasberg for this coming week, would have hired a shrink to advise him how best to woo the guy, and would have also been talking to Cole's parents, girlfriend/wife/whatever and his friends. by December 1st, he would have signed them both. Am I being unrealistic? Maybe, but you all know that he would have been TRYING, at least. Hal is probably getting his pubes waxed and his asshole bleached at this moment and thinking about something, ANYTHING, except baseball.13bithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02704750226699235013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-37075975461749163032019-11-03T08:37:51.167-05:002019-11-03T08:37:51.167-05:00A wasted decade.

The single title in 2009 is near meaningless. The Yankees are not the Royals or the Cubs. Their fans may be satisfied for decades with a single title, and good for them, the miserable inbred monger halfwits. I am not. The Yankees should be built to RULE and to DOMINATE MLB and all sports. The era we are suffering through is a plague, a stain on their noble and storied history. All because Collusion Hal didn't understand the true potential of the Yankees. He is a miser who knows the cost of everything and the value of nothing. The profits of a dynastic team would bring a pang to his small cold unimaginative heart. Always a volatile individual, my anger at him is now volcanic. This team has, had? the potential to be great were it not for Hal's penurious soul.<br /><br /><br />I wish illness on you Hal. I wish cancer and death on you. A cruel debilitating cancer that deprives you of your ability to "lead" this noble franchise and then after interminable suffering takes your life before your time.TheWinWarblisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02781226471237787238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3932285159851204335.post-83506426701962709492019-11-03T08:34:03.985-05:002019-11-03T08:34:03.985-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.TheWinWarblisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02781226471237787238noreply@blogger.com
