Injuries are an excuse to save Brian Cashman. The team stinks.

[@jamesmichael5475]

Not a single productive bat off the bench this entire season, when everyone was healthy, now that Stanton and Rizzo are on the IL, the lineup has only 3 professional hitters on the team, so why would you pitch to team. The Yankees have been trying to make Vertigo into something he is not, He has never been a productive RBI man, he is a 40 RBI per season guy, and having him bat 4th or 5th in the lineup is ridiculous.

When you don’t change things…things don’t change.

DJ LeMahieu wanted to play four more seasons, but Cashman insisted on six seasons. 2024 is his fourth season after signing his contract extension. DJ will have been paid 4 x $15 M = $60 M with $30 M still owed to him. DJ had wanted 4 x $25 M = $100 M so initially, Cashman saved $10 M. If DJ is unable to play effectively ever again, DFA him just like the Astros did with Jose Abreu with some $33 M still owed to him. Aaron Hicks was also DFAed with $33 M owed to him.

Nail on the effing head. The Orioles are stacked with their elite talent, it is time to start matching up.

[@realnealvatn]

The Yankees excuses of injury's would piss me off if i was a Yankee fan.. first off every team has injury's you have to develop depth in your system instead of paying two or three guys that end up hurt with ridiculous contracts.. look at Baltimore and take notes you don't have to spend the most money draft well and develop a farm system look for rule 5 guys and under the radar talent.. cashman and boone are the worst GM manager duo in the league

[@juantejada339]

We need a new manager 1:16 George where are you?

[@ratamacueseven]

Same stuff as 2022, 2023, Pitching, Hitting have failed the Yankees, miserably ! Especially the Poor Performance Pitching ! Geez !!

[@chrispetrillo9042]

Along with Jones bring up Ramirez. Other teams bring up prospects but Yanks seem to run with unreliable major league retreads ie JD Davis.

[@bobtis]

sinking ship

[@josephdirenzo1956]

Lemeauh,torres,rizzo,verdugo; were watching last year all over again. Don't trade for more retreads.bring up some young players like they did rice.

[@yank4334]

for me, 1-2 trades may work but not enough to make a great team ...work on your farm system. judge is from the farm system so is rice so is volpe.

[@horacecomegna335]

The Yankees better do something because the Orioles are getting mighty uppity in their attitude the last two years.

[@eddisonkolnmeier-schneedeu6763]

The NYY don't have a possitive functionality, or conrade, as a unit. And for M. Key's point, Spencer Jones is not gonna safe the team insanity. They must figure out which key players they need, on a trade, to stop the bleeding. Here is what they need: SP, a closer, 2-bats (help generate run after Judge&Soto), and a catcher. Also, Cortes and Rodon must go; TRADE THEM, for god sake!!!

[@johnpestano22]

Jahmai Jones isn't that bad he has had some good games with the glove and bat but yeah i get it we do need a spark when G went down we are getting nothing from DH.

[@reedlizard912]

So because the Yankees aren’t killing everyone the lineup is non competitive. Right.

[@JOEGALVOR]

FROM THE BEGINNING BOONE SHOWN THAT HE KNOWS NOTHING ABOUT STRATEGIES, IN ADDITION HE WAS MEDIOCRE AS A PLAYER, ONLY BECAUSE OF HIS MEDIOCRE HOME RUN, HIS ONLY MERIT IS THAT HE LICKS CASH'S BOOTS VERY WELL, BECAUSE THERE IS TALENT ON THE TEAM, BUT HE DOES KNOW THEY HAVE TO GET RID OF TORRES' OVERWEIGHT, LEMAHIEU'S MEDIOCRE PERFORMANCE, RIZZO'S OLD AGE, AND THE WORST CLOSER, HOLMES

[@moonman2467]

It’s funny, pro baseball players can’t hit the righty/lefty.
