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

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

Mind you Cole played for the pirates and he’s saying this. Not a doubt in my mind he regrets signing here. Never got a runner past first today and it was the third time in 4 games they didn’t even get a man to third base.

I have no sympathy for Judge

He should've left. Or wait until significant moves were made

He had all the leverage during the winter to seriously change the franchise for the better. And he chose the safe route.

Now he has to deal with this train wreck

It’s not the players job to play GM in my opinion. I’m not faulting 99 at all here.

they could lose the next 40 and no significant changes will be made, kinda crazy

Insane stadium was packed yesterday and today lol .. I’m a hard core fan but there really is a line of holding the team accountable, this line is difficult to draw

Those tickets were bought already. What some have probably done is resell them at a loss just to get something out of it. So, other fans and fans who otherwise couldn’t afford to attend games are going now. Dugout seats under $100 for Wednesday.


Next year is a true litmus test. Those tickets won’t be as quick to sell.

I can’t believe you didn’t see the beauty in Robinson’s game.

I just called him. “easy like Sunday morning” Cano

One of the best lefty swings in recent memory

Never thought I’d see early 90s late 80s era Yankee baseball again

Just one extra year. He just needed to stick around one more year

Boone about to get the electric chair

Why not? He had leverage that very few baseball players have ever had. Hal told him they weren't done with FA. So why not wait to see if they weren't full of shyt?

He lobbied for Harper in 2019. So yeah, if he asked for better players, they would've done it


They weren't gonna let him walk after that season he just had. He had the closest thing to Player Empowerment.

This rivalry isn't what it was once, but having 1 game on network tv is an interesting choice

Edit: How many homers have they hit this series?

Would not be shocked if Boone gets fired if they get destroyed today.
