OT: New York Yankees 2020 season

The name calling is quite unnecessary. It's just a board with people's opinions, and yours seems like it is coming from an overly emotional drama queen. Some people like to debate things point by point. Others such as your appear to come here to act like they are a belligerent drunk and constantly shout people down.
Read my post again! Where did I call him any name?? Talk about drama queen. You make stuff up to complain about.

My post was a response to #Coldsprings.....for some reason you jumped in and made it all belligerent and personal like someone was attacking you....

I'm not going line by line of your posts because your first one is completely stupid!! Stanton wasn't needed at all and an awful no trade contract. You really have no clue at all. And what did Cashman do today?? Nothing! Absolutely nothing!
 
Cashman is a mediocre GM who gets to spend a lot of money.

Cashman traded for Stanton on the basis of one great season.
Cashman and his mouthpiece Boone defend Sanchez no matter how pitifully Sanchez performs. Does Sanchez never up his game because he is never held accountable?
Cashman resigned Gardner and let Romine go.
Cashman bashed Sonny Gray and let him go for peanuts.
Cashman thought Torres can play shortstop (he can't) and didn't resign Didi.
Cashman bashes Andújar, who many on this board seem to forget was one of the better hitters in the league in 18. Like Gray, Andújar will star for another team when Cashman trades him for peanuts.
Cashman must take the responsibility for the training staff that can't keep players on the field.
Actually Cashman has repeatedly said Torres is not a shortstop, best position is second.

First of all you quoted my post not Coldspring's. Last post on previous page.
Again read my post again right before what you bolded. I commenting on his posts about Cashman. At no time did I call him stupid just his post defending Cashman with an illogical answer.
 
Who cares what they gave up for him? It's a horrible one sided contract with a no trade clause!! The Yankees are stuck with him until 2028.
Temporary. Do you really think everyone turns it around at the flick of a switch? Have you seen the Yanks/Tampa games this year?? Have you? Tampa is a much better team. Yankees have many issues.

Temporary as in many players will be back. There aren't any season ending injuries and as long as they're back by the last week of September it doesn't really matter because they're making the playoffs regardless. The Yankees at full power can play with any team in the game. We'll see if they ever get there. As far the Yanks/Tampa it doesn't matter in the playoffs if you think otherwise just look at the 88 Mets-Dodgers series. The Mets beat LA 10 out of 11 games in the regular season and they lost the series.

Well you are making two huge assumptions. That everyone hurt will be back healthy and get in enough games to get back to game shape. And no one else gets hurt. The fact you have to go back to 88 to validate your point should tell you that it is very rare.

We definitely need Judge back asap. But who is the other guy you're talking about...Stenton ?
 
Yeah...one game where we could have definitely used CC.
Let's just hope no one gets injured or suspended. It's all-hands-on-deck time.
 
While the tone was uncalled for, fans of a team are entitled to differences of opinion. Good to know that you are following Yankee fans around like an obsessive fanboy stalker though.
Why don't you just put me on ignore, if I seem to get under your skin so much? You have posted in threads I've had an answer for plenty of times without EVER mentioning you. It blows my mind you think otherwise,lol.Put me on ignore, you won't, because your like a bug to light reading what I post LMFAO
 
Yankees' pitcher Chapman, manager Boone suspended


Throwing at someone's head at 102 MPH is a douche bag move. He should get the rest of the season off. He almost killed JD Davis, clearly he has no control.

I picked one that we'd both know and remember.
It doesn't take long to get in game shape.

Right now, this team can't score and I think the pitchers are feeling like they have to do too much.

Regarding Torres... I hope this doesn't end up like Gary Sanchez where you had a great start to a career and then tailed off badly. He was in a slump when he got hurt. It's hard to imagine he's going to suddenly turn it on when he returns.

Ya gotta believe !
 
Pick one in the last 5 years. It takes weeks not days to get in your groove.
LeMahieu missed 2 weeks and has gotten a hit in every game since he's back.
2017 Yankees were 2-5 vs Cleveland and they won against them in the ALDS

Cmon is that the best you got?? Do you remember that season? It was a 162 game season. Than the Yankees called up the young kids. Who they calling up this year? Did you watch tonight's game?? Playoffs start in a month.

Why would I? Guessing that not many here put you on ignore. You're like the board train wreck that we all have to rubberneck.

What kids are you referring to in 2017?
 
Brutal. You could see the handwriting on the wall The Yankees are playing not to lose. If George was around wade would be on a bus right now
 
Another of the Cashman whiffs
You need to take a step back from the keyboard at this point. He's not a whiff. Even if he blows the entire rest of the season, he's not a Cashman whiff. IMO, he got what he deserved after his ill-advised brushback the other night. Hopefully, now we can move on.
 
Clarke Schmidt???? Where do they find these bums?

I am in my late 60s... I should call Cashman because I think I could get more guys out than Schmidt. He'll be on the bus back to BumFvck Egypt after this game.

You've got pretty high expectations for a kid that could be your grandson, was only in because they had nobody else, is a starter (not a reliever) and has a total of 27 games experience in professional baseball, 3 games at AA Trenton being the pinnacle of his career thus far. It was a bad spot they put the kid in, out of necessity. Watch the hits he gave up, not one was over the middle of the plate. First was an offspeed pitch outside and low, may well have been called a ball if the guy didn't reach out and hit it. Second not quite as far outside to a left handed hitter, but pretty far up, typically another pitch hitters will take. He didn't pitch poorly, he was just unlucky. After the game he said he thought maybe he was too amped up, trying to do too much. This is a growth experience for him. Give the kid a break and don't expect him to be Mo at his peak in his first game in the bigs.
Deivi was great through 4, which is really great. Give the kids time to develop, we could have between Deivi, Schmidt and King three solid rotation guys two or three years from now. Odds are one of the three makes it, but that's baseball.

Not impressed by anything King has done.
However, IMO the real problem with this team is the weak lineup. By my count in game #2 tonight they had a lineup with six of the nine spots not hitting their weight. And that's without Mister .130...Gary Sanchez.
Hicks (.206). Gardner (.188), Ford (.149), Andujar (.176), Wade (.170), Estrada (.188).
Seriously, when was the last time the Bronx Bombers fielded a lineup with so many holes ?
Next Man Up ain't working in 2020.

You're definitely right about a the poor hitting. Andujar did play pretty well against the O's, so that's a plus at least. Cash replaced the head trainer after last year because of all the injuries. I don't think anyone expected the parade to the IL to continue this year. Just seems like they're snakebit.
