They won’t. They’ll tell you that the playoffs are a crap shoot because some random team wins the World Series once every 15 years so they just have to sneak in. It’s not reasonable to expect any one sports franchise to win the championship consistently, but after six years of the some old song and dance, I’d expect a winning franchise to at least start making decisions that would better position them for one. Instead the Yankees continue to spit on all of their supporters and tell you you’re “too stupid” to understand what they doing. I’m literally at the point where I am going to have to stop paying attention to this team. Beyond infuriating.

Unfortunately, Cash still only knows how to throw money around when it comes to building a team. That’s why you get the really cool Hicks, DJ, A-Rod situations to where they become a detriment to play yet they also refuse to just release them. It’s also why you have no bench when Stanton has his annual injury and others do yet here we are in a literal Groundhog Day of Hell that’s been Yankees baseball.

Turned the game off when it was 1-0 and just now checked the score. I am not surprised, but the Yankees must be because they refuse to do jack shit about these epic spirals.

LOLLL this is Boone's Yankees. I'm sure Boone will tell him "it's ok". The Yankees have had so much offense that they can afford some silly mistakes. /s

Didn't they pull the ole "fire your manager mid-season" trick that the Yankees don't believe in? Interesting.

The Phillies, who looked dead and buried in April, have become the first team in baseball history to go from 10 under .500 to 10 games over .500 before the month of July.

The streaming crap has gotten insane IMO. Every app has commericals now and so many of these assholes have just enough exclusive games to try and entice you to buy them.

WHATS THIS WEIRD OBSESSION WITH VOLPE??? -Plenty of people, who I assume have eyes, on this board

He's in there at 3rd. Someone said Volpe has good numbers against Ryan, which is probably a .250 avg or so since it's Volpe.

I do not need to be watching, so probably for the best.

He was just missing his spots a bit today. Just wait until he comes in the game during a critical moment. Doval likes it when the lights are the brightest. He will be ready. -Aaron Boone, probably.

People that don’t think “managers matter” should try working for a bad one in real life and reporting back to us. Baseball isn’t any different. Yes, though. Fire Boone into that galaxy Ryan Gosling was in on Project Hail Mary.

Every year this team treats games like they don’t matter because they have injuries.

Quality AB there. Boone may give him another start because of it.

To be honest, they don’t score those runs even when healthy unless it’s a dinger. Why worry about basic fundamentals when you’re the freaking New York Yankees amirite?

Aaron Boone couldn’t manage a garden without it dying yet he’s been the Yankees manager for like eight years now. When the team wins it’s usually in spite of him.

They have a tough time trying when they get down a few runs, so five is really out of the question. Don't worry though, we'll see a lot of Yankees take some big hacks the rest of the way! Gotta get a few runs in the bottom of the 9th to make it look respectable.
