  1. The Yankees are a fucking joke, there’s no way they’ll ever win a playoff series against a team with good pitching. Can you imagine this squad playing against the 96 Braves? It would be 4 and out a total of 2 scored in the sweep.
    Heaney has a 4 era, against the Yankees he’s prime Koufax.

    1. Actually, they do fine against good pitching. Now, if the opposition is smart enough to start mediocre pitchers in lieu of their good ones, the Yankees have no chance.

  2. Not that the playoffs are going to be a long stay, but how could you possibly start this clown in a playoff series? Cole, Stroman, Cortes and then they’re eliminated in the WC but on the off chance it goes 4, you pitch Schmidt regardless of whether or not he’s still hurt. Then you maybe see how much Pettitte has in the tank, then you put a baseball card of Whitey Ford on the mound and hope there’s some kinda Weird Science thing that happens with it and a lightning strike, then you call up Javy Vazquez and Kevin Brown, and THEN, and only then, do you give Rodon the ball.

  3. DJL is a really really bad hitter. Sure Berti is a bad hitter but bad is better than really really bad.
    That they continue to play him might be the most asinine thing I’ve witnessed as a fan in a long time.

  4. Holmes 11 blown saves, Beeks 9, a five way tie for third at 7. Holmes is the Aaron Judge of blown saves.

    Yankees now have 8 losses when leading in the 9th inning or later this season. Only the Rockies (9) have more.

  5. Bone “Just couldn’t finish guys off. Stuff’s there. Feels like he’s throwing the ball well. Got to get over it. We need his excellence. We got to make sure he’s good. Some tough ones of late.”

    Asked about replacing him, said can’t answer now too much raw emotion.

    1. The same BS for 7 years from Boone. Cashman is either a saboteur or has some undiagnosed disease.

    1. That’s hardly a question – of course they would. If you made them following the principles of the dartboard index (at random) they’d win more. Boone actively seeks out the worst moves possible. I’ve never seen anything like it.
