I may be alone on this but don't resign soto and go smaller deals in terms of years/monies for guys like Bregman/Alonso. Solidify the corner infield spots. Move Chisolm to 2B or CF and resign Torres. Try to shore up the pitching if there is anything available.

OH and fire cashman/boone.

Probably gonna bring Cahsman back too so he can dumpster dive not only for his employer but also for his dikk based on the woman he had an affair with.

You want them to try to recreate Soto in the aggregate like they did with Robinson Cano, which set them back 5 years and left them with a deal so bad they used it as an excuse to not sign Bryce Harper, which is a mistake they’ve paid for the past 6 years and are still gonna pay for in the future? The only moves Cashman has shown he should be allowed to even attempt are throw a huge contract at a star player like when the jets gave Mark Sanchez a color coded play sheet on his wrist. Anything more complicated than “you’re a perennial mvp contender in your prime. Here’s a huge long term deal.” and he fukks it up.

Don't Believe the Hype
Allow me to give my final rant of the '24 Season:

I gotta b!tch here, so forgive me. I hate to be an over-reactionary fan, but someone's heads gotta roll for that 5th inning yesterday. The culture of the Yankees is off. It's institutional. Is it generational? Maybe it's Gen Z / Millennial indifference? But the fact that we're having multiple, costly brain farts during the World Series is nuts. The fact that it happened all year means yesterday wasn't some freak anomaly - it's ingrained in the team DNA. This team was not focused / mentally prepared. That's a coaching thing, no?

Go through all my Yankee posts even back during the S0HH days - I NEVER call for the manager to be fired, but Boone gotta go. And maybe it's not just Boone, but someone has to pay. (Also, Hal probably doesn't help either, but we can't get rid of him.)

Yesterday wasn't even heartbreaking as it was embarrassing, dumbfounding, and, most of all, insulting to the fans. It made no sense to me. Plus, it being only Game 5 tempered the hurt. For me, '01 and '95 hurt the most, '04 was a close second but that has almost been scrubbed from my memory for the sake of my wellbeing. This '24 series was just frustrating, like the '12 and '22 ALCS. Like, how'd this team win 90+ games this year? It just didn't add up.

I gotta get back to work and finally concentrate on sh*t I can control and stop worrying about these hundred-millionaires not doing the simplest aspects of their jobs correctly. :smh:

being down 3-0 took some of the sting out of last night. Game 1 was where I was in pain.
I know it was a long shot to comeback from 3-0, its just the way we lost breh smh

No other team loses the way we did yesterday. Those stats they were showing during the game (Cole’s record when given 5+ runs of support, our record when Judge and Stanton homer in the same game) just added fuel to it.

Im still baffled at how this nikka dropped that fly ball :why:

Up 5, 1 on, no outs, and for whatever the fukk reason he's tryna look back who was at first instead of catching the ball. All that needed to go through his mind was securing outs.

The Volpe play I'll defend only because he thought 3B was his only play. His throw wasn't great but Jazz shoulda caught it. That's 3B inexperience showing.
