    Word is out that Yankees are”fiscally responsible” as to their ways of the past.......overpaying. And yet,
    they lose out on Eovaldi who stays with the Red Sux for 4 years & 67.5 mil.......not bad for a 28 year old.......
    who has found new life after being a Yankee!

    Twins are going to be very happy with “Toe”. I know I will miss his enthusiasm & talent.

    Toe was a was a good one, hustled all the time, was proud to be a Yankee, respected by his team mates, so they let him go and keep pieces of shit like Stanton, Sanchez, and Ellsbury.

    Analytics today or totally destroying pitching mentality. Analytics are taking the ball and mind of the Pitcher out of the game.
    Analytics are not cultivating wisdom they're destroying spontaneity.
    I cannot imagine what this game look like in 10 years. I can foresee either- a game where 3 Pitchers throw three innings. Or 4 pitchers throw 2 innings, and a 5th closes out the game. I really miss the day an era of the complete game Pitcher...

    Yankee president, Randy Levine, just can’t help himself......as winter meetings are about to take place
    in Las Vegas, he claims that the Yankees are on a par with the World Champions. As Trashbin is trying
    to get his ducks in a row, this clown ignites meaningless words since the starting staff is not complete
    and several players need to be moved. Yet, right now the Yankee roster does not look complete. With
    pieces still missing, I do not think we are on a par with those Red Sux! Just saying.

    ^^^^^Levine is another reason the Yankee organization comes off less than Championship caliber.
    A lot of braggadocio huffing and puffing! Little results!

    ....^^^^

    Not even remotely close to Boston.
    Not even close to Houston imho-

    Trashman, Oppenheimer and Levine are Frauds & the epitome of a Dumpster Divers...

    Too many Failures in obtaining many a Stud(s); and wound up with Steeres instead- i.e. J.D. Martinez vs
    Gian-K-arlo.
    Eovaldi should of been retained imo, even tho he's had 2 TJ Surgery's, the 1st at age 17.
    Trashman overpaid EO to begin with from $517K w/Miami, to $3.6 - $5 Mil in NY: then back down to $2-Mil at Tampa.

    Then again 2 TJ Surgery's...:nerd: hmmmm

    No habla Gerrit Cole ???

    We can do this (note many failures) all day & night; for yrs to come; from a decade or more past. Until the Kidz wake up and realize they're taking it in the ass from- Trashman, Oppenheimer and Levine...then we as Yankee Fans are as doomed as the crew onboard the Titanic, rearranging chairs while telling the passengers how "Unsinkable" our Great rather doomed Ship is...

    As good as the Bosox :crazy: :doh:
    and Shit smells like Rose's too...:dammit:

    We get Sonny Gray, German, Cesspool, and a Truckload of other shitty players, but everything's coming up roses, just ask Chasen 'his tail' Shreve....

    As noted throughout t/yr & herein, these lists of fkups, has beens, never beens, and failures to sign, as well as ex-Yankees who go on to perform better elsewhere-
    It tis an endless list-
    Be my guests....

    and oh by the way Paradise has become a ghetto, Welcome to Hell, can I get you a glass of ice water??
    Perhaps a Manhattan Iced Tea; without the ice??




    "Play Misty For Me" please...:evilfire:

    The A's, Diamondbacks, and Tigers have contacted The Yankees about Greg Bird as per Bronx Bombers Beat.

    As per Jon Heyman Yankees showing interest in free agent utility players Josh Harrison & Marwin Gonzalez
    as an option to help infield with Didi’s absence. This would be alternative to a mega Machado signing.

    I still do not think Cashman should give up on Bird so quickly.

    Compared to “The Boss” as Derek Jeter liked to call George Steinbrenner, Cashman & Hal Steinbrenner
    are just specks of sand in the hour glass of time & history! That’s 9 years without a Championship!

    The main topic for this year’s Winter baseball meetings is “The Shift”! Baseball executives, GMs, owners
    and managers are holed up in these mysterious meetings to decide where players should stand in the field.
    One exec who refused to attend stated, “These meetings are a fucking waste of time.” I can just see Hal,
    Levine, Trashman and Boner sitting around deciding such ludicrous crap. Remember last year’s resounding
    earth shattering topic of the pace of play that a pitcher had a specific amount of time to pitch. All of this
    is the coverup to the real dealings in the hotel rooms.....the phone bills should be astronomical!
