I was thinking the same thing, RR.

Agree with most comments, but start at the beginning:
Cashman is the problem. He is part of the family so there for
ever......Boone is his pawn. Sanch, Grardy and Glabs need to go.
Rest of the offence is first class.......Pitching not good.
Good luck Cashman! Your the problem.

I to am sick of the Yankees. Rude, destructive, self centered. Oh, wait...you DO mean snowbirds right?🥴

I'm an old former Dodger now Red Sox fan too. The similarity years ago was that they both found maddening ways to lose. About the Yankees---a barely suppressed smile and you know why.

As a life long RedSox fan this thread makes my day!

George Steinbrenner would NEVER EVER let this happen. BOONE IS A SOFT PIECE OF TRASH. NO ENERGY. DOESNT CARE. I miss the old Yankees energy.

Gardner is hitting .218 with 9 homers in 348 AB's. Not sure he is your answer.

I will never give up on my beloved Yankees. They have done very well through the years and they will in the future!!

It's not where you are at the beginning, it's where you are at the end.

If only they had a little more money and could afford to buy themselves some players. Oh wait - LOL

My grandfather was a big baseball fan but he absolutely detested the Yankees. I don't remember his favorite team as it has been a long, long time ago. He related a story to me about the only major league game he was able to attend. He was a farmer in Iowa and couldn't get away from the farm for very long due to having livestock that needed tending to. I don't remember the team or where the game was but he said he was so excited to get to see his team play live. It was a gift to himself and quite expensive for a farmer to pay for the travel and other expenses. He got his ticket for a seat that wasn't exactly the best but it wasn't the worst location until he got to the seat. There was a support pole right in front of his seat and he had to constantly look around it to see the game. That experience so disappointed him that he never tried to go to a game again.

Answer me this, up north when we make a rare appearance in a urban setting where both Yankee and Red Sox fans coexist we have notIced something. The Sox fans are typically respectable looking young kids dressed reasonably well and wearing their baseball caps the way they are designed to be worn. On the other hand, the typical young Yankee fan looks like a thug, with their pants hanging so low the crotch is between their knees and their hat is on sideways. What’s up with that?

The complainers are “ fair weather” fans. I’ve been a Chicago Cubs fan for 60+ years. Now if anyone can keep the faith in an MLB team, it’s a Cubs fan!
