I Want To Believe... But I Can't: The Official 2023 New York Yankees Off-season Thread

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

How missteps by Yankees ownership, Brian Cashman have led to New York's shocking decline since 2017

The Yankees, currently in last place, have failed to build a winner around Aaron Judge in the last six years

This shyt was beyond infuriating to read and even this was kind to the team.

The entire idea of being a Gm for 25 years in sports is outrageous

Ozzie Newsome and Pat Riley are the only guys I’ve seen do it and not overstay their welcome. Even Jerry West didn’t stay with the Lakers that long.

If I’m gerrit cole I want out they have blown so many wins for him this season

He looks ready to demand a trade on the spot after all these losses where he deals only for the offense to never show up or the pen blows it at the end. Can’t say I blame him. We all know that Hal told him a whole bunch of shyt he had no intention of following through with to get him signed.

it's all right in front of them

they did some nice things.

it's only August.

Feels like Kay and the YES personalities have been beating
this drum since the team came back from All Star break. All they’ve done is lose ground since
then

The excuses are gonna start flowing when they have nothing to play for in a few weeks.

The last series they won not against Oakland or KC was back in May right?

I think you’re right, the KC series played at home

Cole can either try to get a trade or opt-out after '24.

if Cole opts out, the Yankees can add an extra year to the deal and he stays.

All he can do is force his way out, but then that goes back to why this team even bothered to keep Judge around.

Jeter attending Old Timer's Day now is such a "please attend our game" situation it's crazy that Jeter's going along with it.

Another shameless cash grab by this organization. They always pull these stunts(farewells, number retirements) when they wanna distract the fans from the awful on-field product

 

[Grifter]

Time to get swept.

Living out here in ATL, watching a team that has a smart FO, and play a good brand of baseball, has been so refreshing

The Braves are what the Baby Bombers should've been with a better GM

We run rap music and baseball

fukk it. We gotta take the L on this season and pray that Boone and Cashman are gone. Boone is a dead man walking at this point.

It’s just unreal to see how far they’ve tumbled since DJ hit that homer in the 9th inning of game 6 in 2019 . They legit suck and I wouldn’t bet on them to beat anyone at this point, KC and Oakland included.

I don’t know much about the Yankees and how inconsistent they’ve been but this Braves team is a legit juggernaut at the plate. Our bats haven’t really been off this year, legit all 10 batters (2 catchers) in our lineup can take you deep

fukk you cashman
