OT: 2024 NY Yankees Season Thread

What a gut punch. It was right there in front of them. Weaver just needed to get one more out.
Really, really sux.

Truly GUTLESS. Cashman garbage once again. This type of choke job can turn the entire series.
 
The difference between 3-0 and 2-1 in a series is monumental. Tonight’s game may be a top 3 Yankee playoff cluster-Fs in my lifetime.
And tomorrow has a heartless performance written all over it as the Yanks go meekly into the night. Probably will lose 4-0 or 5-1 with only a handful of hits. Until I see differently, you can't trust a Cashman team in the playoffs.
 
Cleveland has to win a game in NY.

Everything is fine, but man, they got some guys that totally suck right now.

Wells just looks lost.
And the real Clay Holmes is alive.

I can not believe Boone brought Holmes in,
to close after he proved he is not a closer.
I really think Boone is brain dead,
 
If it’s possible to lose the World Series in one game, the yanks may have done it last night. Let’s see if they can bounce back tonight.

He didn't really bring him in to close. He brought him in to extend the game after Weaver blew it. It also saves Weaver for another game this series. Honestly, who else are you bringing in once the closer blows it?
 
This thing is far from over. Was it the Diamondbacks series where he hit multiple game winning home runs/dramatic hits back to back and still lost the series or was it the Sox? Either way, there's still a lot of ball to play.

I think it’s the soul-crushing way Yanks lost. Two outs up by two there is probably a <1% chance (statistically speaking) that Yanks will lose. After Weaver got hammered for what was almost a HR and they sent up the PH I had a feeling he would give up another hit to score that man from 2nd but the HR was shocking. Almost as if Weaver had no scouting report on the PH?
 
The Indians have all the momentum now it seems. Truly a heartbreaking loss. I can see the series changing
 
A lot of doom and gloom on here. Yes the Yankees lost a game after a great comeback. But that doesn't change that the Yankees are the better team and we still have a 2-1 lead. It's like many of you are giving up.

My beef was bringing Kahnle back to start the 8th.

Bottom of the order must have been Boone's thinking, Weaver would have been 3 up/3 down.
Getting a little concerned now that Weaver might be getting overworked.
 
Another GUTLESS performance. Surely they will choke this one away as well.

FIRE CASHMAN! He is the asshole making these moves. Boone is a puppet.
 
Can someone explain to me the logic of only throwing changeups? Is Kahnle incapable of throwing other pitches?

Edit: it worked, but honestly, I still don’t really get it.

Imagine that kind of reminds me of how things are …..after a bad RU loss…. Oh and the Yankees just won… not gutless at all

Huge credit to the bottom of the order. Rizzo choking up and getting things started in the 9th. Volpe continuing things with the single. Etc Etc. It’s nice to see things happen outside of Soto/Judge/Stanton.

The bullpen is certainly getting a workout.

The nice part of this team is nearly everyone is contributing.

Just get Chisholm to contribute and the circle is complete.

Just get rid of Cashman and Boone and things will turn around.
 
Need a good showing from Rodon and wrap this up tomorrow to rest this bullpen.
Agree, wrap up series tomorrow night and if Mets can push it to 7 games….would be a big advantage for the Yankees
 
It's pretty obvious both bullpens are worn out.

Could be some hard decisions tomorrow if Rodon struggles early...make it a "throw away" game and rest the pen or hope to just outhit Cleveland again?
 
Yanks have handled Clase. Didn't see that coming.
Or that Boone was right in trusting in Leiter. Frankly, I didn't know he was even on the roster.
Or why he didn't just tag the runner instead of throwing it to Rizzo.
