Smashmouth Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 While I don't think the Yankees are built to win a playoff series this year we certainly can always count on the Mets to totally sh*t the bed year after year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smashmouth Posted August 20, 2021 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Anyone notice the amount of runs our pitching staff is giving up with Higgy behind the plate ? The guy was hitting well in the beginning of the season until they gave back full time duty to Sanchez .Now that higgy got full time duty since Sanchez is out with pos covid test notice how he's once again starting to hit ? If we make the playoffs I hope Higgy is our full time catcher because when pitcher needs to make a tough pitch that may need to be blocked with runners in scoring position I don't want to see Sanchez any where near that situation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The streak was fun and impressive and it gave some Yankee fans false hope. We will probably make the playoffs but in said playoffs we still can not hit top caliber pitching. Sure we have one of the better all around pitching staffs in the game right now but we still can't hit playoff caliber pitching and we can't beat Tampa Bay. We keep trotting guys like Odor out there and Gary "I cant catch" Sanchez just when Higgy started to swing a hot bat makes no sense. The Yankees are still in love with the homerun and just about nothing else pertaining to the game of baseball like contact hitters and good defense. Wade was also starting to swing a hot bat and plays above average Defense at short yet never seems to get the chance to play every day. If this current team was to bring up Jeter he would have never played since early in his first year he struggled at the plate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barton Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 The Yankees are run and managed by losers. The Yankees players do not respond to Boone. He is not a leader. And the guy who hired him is worse. Cashman has 1 world series win AND appearance in the last 15 years. And that team (2009) was built on a core from the 1990's that he had nothing to do with. Meanwhile other teams have rebuilt, torn down, rebuilt again and won multiple championships. How the hell is he still the GM?? Anyone can sign a CC Sabathia or Gerrit Cole in their primes.

#27TheDominator Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I agree they have not looked good and some of this stuff seems mind boggling, but they're good, they're bad, they're good, they're bad. They certainly have the ability to get hot in the playoffs, assuming they don't flop their way out of a wild card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HR hitters are streaky so there's the Yankees. The Pitching has been good and during that streak we won some games with very little production from the opposition because the pitching stepped up and some one on the Yankees hit a home run . This team, not counting the pitching staff, stinks, both on defense and at the plate and they will especially stink in the playoffs vs a team with a good pitching staff as is normally the case when you hit the second round of the playoffs. Cashman, with all the money in the world, has no idea at all how to build a team.... NONE. After the team Gene Michaels built was starting to age Cashman had no answer and he still has no answer. So many mistakes made by this guy its not even worth discussing any more. I think Boone was handed a one dimensional team that simply can't be coached because its either the long ball or no ball that and the defense stinks yet we keep trotting guys like Odor out there to play third when Wade was the easy choice since he's an above average fielder and was actually starting to hit and can steal bases. This team needs hitters that can make contact in big situations like with a guy on second 2 outs in the ninth either tied or down a run you know guys like Oneill, Jeter, Bernie, ......... All who could hit for average and get the big hit when needed. Who on this Yankee team would you say can be "that guy" who can get the big hit other than DJ ? The late 90's Yankees didnt have the biggest Homerun hitters in the game but they had a full team of "that guy" and this current team has 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Yankees have been an all or nothing offensive team for YEARS. So what does he do to fix it? Trades for Joey Gallo. The poster boy for all-or-nothing hitters. And he also has a pathwork starting pitching rotation EVERY year. Why not trade Judge and Severino for Chris Sale again?? He passed on that deal. Guy is an idiot. EFFING CLUELESS.

Too bad it will take Hal another 2 bad seasons in a row to fire Cashman You can't be serious with this . DJ is the best player on the team behind Judge. Last year he was far and away the best. The key here is DJ is pressing because pitchers refuse to pitch to him. Why pitch to DJ when you can strike out the next 3 batters ? That and DJ should be batting third not leading off. Wade should be playing short and leading off because he was starting to hit and he steals bases/creates runs and Odor should not even see the field he should be released. Cashman does not realize you can not build a team with only Strikeout/Homerun hitters. So if Wade plays short you trade Torres who cant play short and obviously now cant hit either not sure what's up with him. Also Higgy behind the plate and dump Sanchez along with Torres for guys who can hit for average and make contact and then some of the HR hitters will see some pitches to hit.
