I know Cole was one of those moves we had to make (many of the guys are guys we couldn’t argue against), but I don’t like Cole and he’s hard to root for.

If the Yankees do pay Judge they’re gonna be shelling out an ungodly amount of money towards talented players incapable of leading.
You've been watching too much of that Jeter Documentary

Lumping Judge with this phony Cole is a weird take I gotta be honest

At some point you just have to admit the core ain’t it

Nah I’m keeping it 100 and this has nothing to do with Jeter, but he’s not the most vocal guy, the team doesn’t feed off of whatever he does, and I still haven’t forgotten when we split with the Sox in 2018 he wanted to do some dummy shyt like play NY NY out loud in the locker room for everyone to hear only to lose both games at home.

This franchise felt so desperate for leadership they thought they found it in a washed bigot making $25 mil a year.

Brian Cashman became The Yankees GM in 1998, almost 25 years now. How many successful starting pitchers has the farm system developed? Where are the Aces? Cole Moose CC he bought those guys, they weren’t developed by the Yankees. Clemens he traded for him. Sevy made started out nice, made 2 all star teams, and has basically been injured the last 3 years. Wang had 2 nice regular seasons in 06/07 only to embarrass himself in October and was irrelevant after the 2008 injury. Phil Hughes? One overrated 2010 season as a starter. Joba Chamberlain? Ian Kennedy?

It’s kind of embarrassing when you think about it. The only way he can get an ace is if Someone else drafts/develops a stud pitcher and then the Steinbrenner’s open up the checkbook making them the highest paid pitcher in baseball history.

He been ass but it doesn't help that Boone moves him around the lineup.

He can not get a level of comfortability withing the lineup.

I've been saying for years...shyt is unnecessary how players are moved in the lineup and in position

consistency builds comfort which build confidence...guys don't know where they're going to bat and thus don't know what is required from them game to game...shyt is such an easy thing to get but Boone and the AI department think the numbers matter more than the human fukking brain

I told folks that Judge was a good player but that he had yet to prove to me that he was "the guy" and they said I was a hater

It's the dog days of August brehs

He's not the fukking guy
