Soto or Nowhere: The Official 2024 New York Yankees Off-Season Thread

[tremonthustler1]

Only baseball I'll be caring about is Licey baseball.

If Soto goes, let it be and move on to the next phase of Yankee baseball.

I needed judge up there with two on and strikeout to make the Cypher complete

 

[Michael's Black Son]

Yeah fųck this.

 

[holidayinn21]

So it's either gonna be a sweep, or a Yankee Blowout, with Captain Low Leverage doing something because there's not as much pressure

 

[AJtheOne]

Silly me thinking they’d play better at home these fools played better in LA

 

[Captain Crunch]

Yeah fųck this.

You was trolling the Mets a week ago. What happened big dog?

Disaster. Absolute worst case scenario stuff from the Yankees.

*Wasted a gem from Cole
*Imbecilic decision from Boone with Nestor
*Refusal to use Grisham or Martian in high leverage pinch hit situations
*Chazz Jism aint built for this
*Austin Wells went from "oh shyt, this guy's a fukkin hitter" to "Goddman, this dude can't hit a fastball"
*Sending G when not only can he not run, but his leg might fall off for good
*Judge posting one of the all time disappearing acts

Strike zone was embarrassing but did it matter that much? They looked like dead men walking regardless.

If Soto walks after this, that makes the season as big a failure as missing the playoffs altogether.

Verdugo has officially meant more to the team in the playoffs and World Series than Judge lol. Crazy

Austin wells is the only Yankee who has been worse this postseason. Hitting .140 with a .278 OBP and slugging barely over .300 for the playoffs. He’s completely ruined his legacy this month. All those regular season homers don’t mean shyt now.

Bītch I got Grimace tied up in the basement.

Don’t make me send him back on the 7 train in a 20 piece nugget box

 

[tremonthustler1]

and this is not on the pen.

what everyone feared the most actually held up their end.

It goes back to the same shyt and Boone just never wanted to fix anything. He'd rather lose the game than make his friends unhappy.

 

[Raquinotj]

nikkaz getting ya koofi smacked in the biggest stage. Love to see it.

 

[Osmosis]

Against the Dodgers:
Padres had games of 5, 6, and 10 runs
Mets had games of 5, 7, and 12 runs

Meanwhile, the Yankees are struggling to get a couple of hits in a game

This is the worst part. If they lose him, the next 5-10 years will 100% be a complete waste of time too. Still waiting on them to develop anyone out of their farm system and they still love to waste 1/3 of the payroll on vets who can barely hit a 90mph fastball or pitchers who can’t strike anyone out.

 

[AJtheOne]

Captain of the team hasn’t shown up so how do you expect the rest to show up. Judge is gonna deal with the heat all off season and until he finally shows up when it counts most.

Stanton and Soto carried us all postseason .

It’s the Yankees. This has been the way every postseason has gone for them since 2002 with one exception. They’re 41-64 when not facing Cleveland or Minnesota in the playoffs over the last 23 years. Jeter and Soto are the only guys who’ve consistently hit well in October for them in that stretch.
