    It doesn’t matter. This team is heavily flawed.

    Boone makes out the line up card. Caballero is a better all-around player than Volpe. Slide Bellinger to CF Dominguez can play LF and Rice could DH.


    I'll ask again, between the 2, which coach has done the better job tonight? If you think it's Boone, it's laughable...if you admit it's Schneider, well it means Boone is getting "out-coached" tonight.

    Jesus Al, don't know what your problem is, but it shouldn't be with me...put things in their proper context, we are talking about tonight.

    Dominguez doesn't make that catch that Bollinger did...and what would have been the post...how can you have a defensive liability in a sudden death game...

    You didn't answer the fact the jays blew a huge lead last game..why isn't Schneider fault since its so easy to blame a manager?

    Someone said..all year...
    Again..the manager didn't flub two double plays..the manager didn't just swing at the first pitch after the closer walks the previous batter...

    I guess Boone got out managed there too

    A walk loads the bases and Wells is first pitch swinging. The story of this team.

    Have you been drinking, Al? So you think Cashman and Boone should keep their jobs? Please say yes so we can end this pissing contest.

    "Gold glove"?...yeah, that's a very compelling award.

    CA Sandy Alomar Jr. (AL 1990) 14 errors, 5.67 range factor;
    1B Rafael Palmeiro (AL 1999) 28 games at 1B, 135 games as a DH;
    2B Fernando Vina (NL 2002) 13 errors, 4.59 range factor;
    3B Travis Fryman (AL 2000) 2.31 range factor;
    SS Robin Yount (AL 1982) 24 errors, 4.82 range factor;
    LF Dusty Baker (NL 1981) range factor 1.87, league range factor 2.02;
    CF Andy Van Slyke (NL 1990) 8 errors -- fairly horrible for a CF;
    OF Andre Dawson (NL 1988) range factor 1.86, lg range factor 1.98;
    PI Jim Kaat (AL 1969) 8 errors as a pitcher, range factor very slightly better than lg avg.

    You lose.

    Ill agree that Cashman hasn't produced the players to win in the playoffs...too many one dimensional hitters and its been this way since Giambi days..

    But no..ill stand on my box to say Boone wasn't the reason this team loses this series

    Al, I never said he was. Show me where I did, and I'll never post again.

    Umm..you said he was out coached...when you say that you basically are saying he was the cause they lost the series

    Oh well, I can't really say I'm all that disappointed, because as I've said many times, "the Yanx are built for the PS". They hit a bunch of HRs and beat up on the weaker teams but come up short vs our division rivals and in the PS.
