@frankingeneral Cashman's has lived off of the laurels of the 98-00 Yankees, a team he didn't put together, and a stupidly large checkbook. Anywhere else, the only thing he'd be general managing is the concession stand at a AA affiliate.
@YankeesPR Why. What blazing metric did your metrics people use to bring back a guy who played 5 hand with a 14+ era, to replace a guy with a 3.38 era over 39 games. This may be the most illogical, in a long string of dumb, Cashman moves.
@OHschoolboards 95% of this was taught to me in college in the late 90s... makes me wonder what some districts have been doing for two decades. More political buffoonery along with the unfunded mandate to go back to reading texts that have never helped a good teacher teach better.
@NYPost_Brazille Last year the Yankees were in the bottom 5 in offense. While they aren't killing it, they presently sit in 13th place. Rizzo is hitting .281 and Cabrera .317. They have production from more than Volpe and Soto.
@Davee_8 It's been a long time coming. I haven't felt this fired up in years. I feel like tonight can be a replay of 2011 with Hardy flipping in the last second shot to take out #4 Pitt. Time to make MSG ours again.
@Yankees@STR0 I'm fine with Strohman, but dropping the ball on all the all the other options verifies BC shouldn't be a GM anymore. As built, I am hoping for 3rd place in '24.
@Yankees You don't wanna trade the farm system. I get it. If you want to win now, you need to give up some of the good drafting you did to fix the HORRIBLE tradES and signings Cashman did. Losing Yam to LA's ridiculous contract is understandable. Settling for Strohman will be tragic
@NYPost_Brazille That being said Tam at 325 million is a sign of the ridiculous over- valuation of players created by LAs atrocious Ohtani contract. Without LA skewing the entire market, Yam gets nowhere near 300 million.
@NYPost_Brazille I don't buy that Yam wanted to be a Dodger. Ohtani was the selling point. Yam made it clear he'd like a Japanese player on the team. NYY could have signed Lee, who played in Korea but is Japanese by birth, and bolstered their bid and the OF.
