Tanka, Paxton, and Biggie failed in Games 1-3. Line tonight is on Boston pitching match on paper favors Sale over German. Though Yankee Pitching shit the bed yesterday the offense had chances to even things out but failed. I don't know what club expectations are for German despite his record. Last night Judge, Gregorius, and Tauchman were 0 for 13. Voit struck out three times. The only Yankee who showed up and excelled was Urshela. We are now three days from deadline and Cashman still is scratching his ass. The Yankees sure made a huge mistake when they let Girardi go.
Boston RedSux team took out an ad in their local paper. The headline read: Demolition pick up of all pinstripe matter will be at midnight Monday AM! Boner & Trashman are nowhere to be found. Yankee pitchers unfortunately are obliging with the city’s sanitation department! What a way to finish their skittish road trip. Let’s just say the outlook for a win tonight is not very promising.
The issue for Cashman now is that every club can see how desperate we are for pitching and they will want a king’s ransom from us. Cashman drops the ball year after year in free agency with pitching. I know some people here didn’t want Keuchel but he would have been a perfect addition. Guy can give you innings, wanted a one year deal to prove how good he was and would be pitching his absolute best (regardless of how much Rothschild tried to fuck him up), has post season experience and only would have cost this club money, not prospects. Instead we tried to go cheap, he said no and now here we are 3 days before the deadline having seen our starters giving up 50 runs in 5 games and are either going to have to suck it up and realize this team isn’t winning the world series because of piss poor management, or trade away even more of the future and HOPE that the one pitcher we bring in will fix everything. Here’s what should have happened: Cashman signs Keuchel. Keuchel has good outings while Happ and Paxton squander. Cashman looks for another pitcher BUT offers in exchange for said pitcher Happ or Paxton with Frazier and some B level prospects. Now you’re dealing from a strength becaus Happ and Paxton obviously just need a real pitching coach to get fixed, and then we can get a pitcher who will come in with their old pitching coaches ideas and use them and hopefully stick to them before Rothschild kills their career too. Regardless of anything, if Rothschild is still with this team next year, Cashman will be sending a message to every person in the world that he doesn’t care about winning, just that his coaches will say yes to him on everything he wants.
If Cashman would man up, admit he fucked up, stated he'd get through the rest of '19 with what he had and get squared for '20 he'd probably be respected. To this point in time he has spoken from both side of his mouth on any issues. So has Boner. I'll give Cashman credit for one thing, he's great with job security for himself. He knows the Steinbrenner tadpoles will keep him on. Should the team fail he has an endless supply of busses to throw people under.
Read an article that the Blue Jays want AT LEAST Garcia plus prospects for Stroman. Fuck outta here. But Cashman is just dumb enough (and desperate enough because of his ineptness) to do this. Sacrifice the future to lose in the present is Cashman’s motto.
^^^^^too bad neither of the Tadpoles has the guts to put the kibosh on Cashman’s panic button moves. Sacrificing the future for one mediocre pitcher will not get this team a championship, but Yankee management knows how to put a spin on how the team is much improved. Yes, he’s been getting away with such moves for too long. What is even sadder, majority of Yankee fans buy it year in and year out.
I don't believe Stroman or Wheeler could benefit this Team. At this point Sandy Koufax would not benefit this Team, not with an Organization that is clueless from top to bottom. I imagine King George would have fired Trashman, Oppenheimer, Levine and every single Coach by now, and kicked his Sons in the nuts with the cameras rolling. Or he may have tossed Harold Hal out the window of his Box Suite....for the Fans to deal with-
Add to team strengths? Get another slugger, Cashman must have not seen the box scores for the last three games. Stanton, Judge and Sanchez in the same lineup strike out more in one year the Joe DiMaggio did in his career. This is the New York Yankees with lots of dough, can't develop pitching then buy it, oops Cashman didn't do that very well either. Two things Cashman can't do, run a ball club or comb his hair. We all remember Decki being Pedros daddy in the '09 series, dumb fuck Cashman let him go. I never got the straight poop on why Pettitte left in '04. Yankees signed A-hole and look what happened in the '04 ALCS. Pettitte was a fucking Red Sox killer pitching for the Stros. The Yankees would have not won in '09 had he (Pettitte) not come back.

LMFAO...the Mutts? Great...y’all got all those pitchers but no offense and probably traded away the ENTIRE farm. I could easily see Diaz plus several top prospects in that deal. Unless it was for Noah straight up. Either way, this is a pillow fight trade. Two teams that are totally irrelevant trying to stay in the headlines.
