@YankeesSlut
Nowhere does it say -- or does he even say -- people bothered him in public. It just seems like he was embarrassed by his performance and thought people would give him shit if he went down the street to order takeout, so he didn't bother. That's really on him.
For a team that's 20 games over .500, the
@Yankees
get absolutely shut down on offense an alarming number of times and most of it has to do with their stubborn insistence on shoving Hicks and Gallo down everyone's throats.
If the
@Yankees
are actually serious about winning they’d have Blake Snell and Jordan Montgomery in New York Tuesday morning announcing a dual signing.
The best part about today is all the juvenile

"hoodie" and "resurgence" accounts, the guy who films himself watching
@Yankees
games jumping and flopping around like a fool, the GIF makers, can all go hibernate for the winter so the adults can talk baseball. 👋
There’s nothing funnier than
@Yankees
fans looking at the schedule 10 days in advance and picking out the “winnable games” when the reality is the Yankees are the winnable game on everyone else’s schedule
OPS sucks. WAR sucks. Joey Gallo sucks. Advanced analytics sucks.
Making contact with the ball does not suck. Scoring runs does not suck. Winning does not suck.
If you were in pull-ups during the
@Yankees
dynasty, delete this app and throw your phone down the garbage disposal.
Maybe it's time to acknowledge the
@Yankees
and their culture -- and clearly the way they develop and attempt to help players progress -- is the problem, not the players. The fact Montgomery had to go elsewhere to unlock this is embarrassing and justifies a full house-cleaning
If you still defend this trade and think this is worth the absolute drain on the team's budget that it's become the past 3, 4 years you should seek help.
This is who keeps Hal profitable.
Striking out with runners on second and third in a tied game? Eh, no big deal. Meaningless solo home run down two runs an inning later? Post chest-thumping “told you so!” tweet.
These are the fans the
@Yankees
love. They keep business booming.
I think Josh Donaldson hitting a 105.6 MPH Barreled HR should be a bigger deal than what it's currently being made out to be since I was seeing tweets saying he should be DFA'd in the very same game
I've never pulled for the Red Sox ever in my life but the more they continue to win, the more it embarrasses Cashman and the
@Yankees
brain trust, so ...
Only the
@Yankees
could fuck up a mega trade like this where they don’t even have to give up Volpe or Dominguez because they don’t want to part with a middle-of-the-road reliever trying to convert to a starter with a 75-pitch limit
Frankie Montas has allowed 13 runs in 3 starts for rhe
@Yankees
since the trade deadline.
Jordan Montgomery has allowed 12 *HITS* -- hits, not runs -- since Cashman traded him to the Cardinals.
Fire this bald bozo into the sun.
I’ve argued with people all winter about this team.
Ask them to answer one simple question:
“This year will be different because __________.”
There’s nothing to fill the blank. Very simple.
Between Buster Olney, Andy Martino, and Jon Heyman, the
@Yankees
PR spin doctors are working overtime today to pump out these bullshit Trevor Story rumors. 😂
At what point does the
@Yankees
media start to investigate the fact that Gerrit Cole, through the use of an illegal substance, cheated his way to a mega deal with the Yankees and now that he cannot use that substance anymore is not the pitcher they thought they were getting?
Who gives a shit about a winning record if you don't win it all?
Since 2004, the Red Sox have had five losing seasons but have also won four championships. I'll take that over a bunch of 90-win seasons and early playoff exits every year.
Cashman shills
#1
argument is Yankees never finished under 500
The 2023 are currently .500...
So your argument is the Cashman has never built a team worse than this
Slow clap from Brian
I think Josh Donaldson hitting a 105.6 MPH Barreled HR should be a bigger deal than what it's currently being made out to be since I was seeing tweets saying he should be DFA'd in the very same game
This is why I never believed the hype. And I never will. I've watched enough baseball to know better.
The
@Yankees
are a rotted, lazy franchise owned by a comatose heir to the Steinbrenner throne and managed by a punchless goof who has steered the ship through 4 failed seasons.
The Patriots finish with a losing record twice in 22 years and the owner immediately emails fans apologizing and promising changes.
The
@Yankees
are now on a 13-year title drought and the team sends an email announcing its Stadium milkshake lineup for 2023.
Pro boxers crying about Jake Paul's level of competition through five fights is laughable considering guys with infinitely more amateur experience than Paul also spend 3 1/2 years boxing jiu jitsu black belts, college wrestlers, Lyft drivers, and mall kiosk workers.
The only thing that can save the
@Yankees
at this point is for Hal Steinbrenner to get caught up in a Howie Spurs-Dave Winfield scandal where
@MLB
is forced to suspend them for (at least) three years like they did to his father 🤞
The king
@DonCoyneRI
. We only had that view because we had to leave the press box early to get to the locker room in time and cross the back of the end zone to get there, but when the
@Patriots
unexpectedly tied it, they let us stand behind the end zone until the game ended
Hal Steinbrenner promised he'd reinvest in the
@Yankees
in
#2022
and, yes, he's delivering on that promise by switching chicken-finger vendors and going with a company that uses a crumb-based breading with deep golden brown crumb highlights and a mild garlic flavor profile
We're basically going to "cancel" everyone and everything until society is an empty, soulless white room like that episode of Family Guy where Lois was obsessed with decluttering the Griffin household
If you make an honest effort to get him out and attack him with your best stuff, there should be no shame in giving up a record-setting bomb in a meaningless game. Byung-hyun Kim had more stones than these guys.
I don’t fully understand the stigma around being the pitcher to give up
#62
to Judge.
I mean…I guess it’s a pride thing, but being forever linked to a legendary moment like that sounds kinda cool.
Actually, it’s the complete opposite. Real fans demand the best and want change when they don’t see improvement. The definition of bandwagon is showing up to take selfies and drink $15 High Noons
The Astros have been a high-contact, high-average team since 2017 and continue to win, yet Cashman thinks guys who go 0-for-5 with 5 Ks and occasionally run into a fastball is the way to build a winner
Carpenter 0-4 with 4 K’s, Donaldson 0-3 with 3 K’s. Congrats to Giancarlo Stanton for being the only Yankee who didn’t strike out in this 17K joke of an offensive effort. 6 of 9 players with multiple K’s. Oh, and the Astros only struck out twice.
@Shinuto5
@Yankees
Clearly they felt the same way if they traded him for Harrison Bader. The difference is they're supposed to know better. I'm a nobody. Troll the GM who dumped him for a guy they DFA'd two years later.
I think it's the excitement in seeing someone we've heard about for years finally getting a shot. The team is mid and will be lucky to get in the playoffs so I'm honestly just excited to see if the kid is any good. I have zero expectations for the season in general unfortunately.
Amazing to me how yanks add one rookie to bottom of a lineup that’s the same one that got swept in postseason and now it’s a amazing lineup lol. Sometimes I just don’t get it.
This is such a terrible take by King. They *did* face Houston in July. They got no-hit in one game, then went hitless for the first 7 innings the next day and somehow managed a split despite never leading at any point during a four-game series. At home. Give it a rest.
Except they weren't. Real fans saw right through this sham of a team. Dummies Nufans said they were better than the 98 Yankees and would win 120 games.
Wow, the Cowboys are the
@Yankees
of the NFL. Insufferable, entitled fans hero-worshipping a team that shits itself on an annual basis when it really matters.
Losing to Brown at home on the night you induct Tyson Wheeler, Cuttino Mobley, and Antonio Reynolds-Dean into the
@RhodyMBB
Hall of Fame is beyond disgraceful.
LeMahieu leading off and Stanton batting cleanup is a great way to ensure Judge and Soto stand there on the bases with their hands on their nuts for nine innings
Bowden on MLB
"DJLM is going to lead off, they like his OB capability, then Judge who likes hitting 2nd and Soto who likes hitting 3rd, followed by Stanton Rizzo Torres and Verdugo, that's your top 7"

It’s already looking like the typical winter where all the big-money guys come off the table in 7–10 days while Cashman sits around and plays with himself waiting for a mid-level 32-year-old No. 3 starter with two Tommy John surgeries to hit the market
@elleinthesun
That would render all sportswriting irrelevant. Just have ex-athletes report on sports, at which point a real writer could say "if you don't know how to write, you shouldn't be writing about sports ....." Giant cyclone of circular logic.
I’d go a step further and tear down anything that references “27 rings,” Ruth, Mantle, Torre, the picture in the concourse of DiMaggio eating pasta, whatever — it’s a curse at this point. Stop living in the past.
My humble take on the Yankees-
I think that the Yankees need a complete overhaul, I want a city connect uniform, a mascot, I want to get rid of the facial hair policy completely, I want everyone in the front office gone, I want young talent that isn’t afraid to bat flip when
There is zero point in rushing Judge back from the IL. The
@Yankees
are a lost cause and this is a wasted season. This guy is here for the next decade. Shut him down, let him heal the little bumps and bruises he has, and see what value you have in the minors.
I can see Gallo hitting 40 bombs, 38 of which will be solo shots with the Yankees either ahead or trailing by 10 runs, and posting a .102 average with men on base and

will send "Save The Dates" for his monument park plaque ceremony
Boston teams always do this campy shit with injured players running out of the tunnel on the Jumbotron or hiring a police escort to drive someone's personal catcher from the airport to the ballpark 😅😅
Tough news. Like many, I grew up reading his For What It's Worth column every Saturday. Bill was who inspired me to pursue as a sports writer. And I'll never forget being awestruck when he introduced himself in the press room at

@EricRueb
is absolutely crushing it with high school coverage. Not sure which version of the ProJo you’ve been reading. Eric has taken it to new heights and added his own personality and new twists to high school reporting. His style makes every game feel like a big one.
It’s the ProJo’s social media & online presence that’s the bad path. I gave up checking for scores & results online because they were so sparse & often stale.
