Here’s what I know about the Yankees:
1. The roster isn’t good enough and this was obviously the case opening day
2. Aaron Boone has proven he can’t lead a team to consistent effort + overall a higher baseline output given the roster at hand
3. Brian Cashman has proven too passive to run the most recognizable and commercial franchise in the sport
4. Matt Blake is the lone highlight on staff that has his flaws as well, however that’s normal to find of any staff member in history
5. Hitting coach James Rowsen has no idea what he’s doing (addition of “upper cut” to Austin Wells)
Seriously? Not much else is needed here
6. Aaron Judge needs to be far more outspoken with not just this group but every group he leads from here on
7. The Yankees need to figure out if they want short term solutions in Trent Grisham or a chance to see Dominguez/Jones (no right answer just pick a lane)
8. Hal Steinbrenner (despite it’s unlikelihood) is the only person important in all this
Without him agreeing he’s seen enough from this umbrella of ineptitude, this franchise will never win anything meaningful on his watch

@TKuddi@itsmrevandaniel All HRs. They can’t manufacture runs and they don’t hit HRs in the playoffs because they typically face the best pitching in the league. It’s ok bro. Let them get Skubal and they’ll be playing golf by mid October again 👍🏻
@TheDataCage@abarkett17 Sells bats = in baseball, eh? Vs a World Series winning hitting coach. The ignorance and egos on this app never cease to amaze me
@BrendanKutyNJ The team is run like 🗑️. Other teams do more with less. When Boone is thinking Cabrera > Goldschmidt > Grisham & they continue to enable poor defense & poor relief it’s a shit show. Remember the LAD strat in the WS? Make the NYY play baseball & they’ll lose. Nothing has changed
@NYYUNDERGROUND But we were told BA doesn’t matter which is why season after season they rank towards the bottom. Idiot clown show every year in the Bronx
@VirginiaYankee1 Welcome to 2018. He’s never been good. The org has forced fans to accept mediocrity and values process over results. It’s a circus and people inside and outside of baseball know it. I’ve divested emotionally after 40+ years of caring. F them and f Boone specifically
