@rationalyankee Boone manages the Yankees with a $300 million dollar payroll. Cora is in last because of a lack of talent. Joe Torre wouldn’t win with that roster. I watched the playoffs last year and don’t remember Boobe destroying Cora.
@rationalyankee I’m admittedly biased. I can’t stand him. Even after tonight I still believe Cora is a better manager but props to our guy at least for one night.
@pamsson This is the underlying reason he does it. Wants to keep his vets happy. Not a good enough reason. You can be a players’ manager without making decisions that hurt the team. Goldy is a pro, he’ll understand. Even said as much after he signed.
@pamsson Poor Boobe probably assumed Stanton would be on the IL by now and he could easily get both Rice and Goldy AB’s without pulling boneheaded moves like this. Inexcusable having Rice out of the starting lineup two days in a row.
