    Imagine. Brian “trash” Cashman does not have the financial flexibility to obtain free agents!
    Yet, he is trying skim monies to keep LeMahieu & paying huge contracts for Gerrit Cole & the

    great Yankee albatross, Giancarlo Stanton. Yankee notoriety sure has taken a big fall....with Cashman,
    et.al. running this once proud team.

    George Steinbrenner would always put his money back into the team. Though he was controversial, team
    improvement was always a priority. With son, Hal, and his henchman, Cashman, the money always goes back
    into the owners’ pockets. For these guys giving Stanton 29 million per year has been a total bust. Proof: in the
    last two years, Stanton has been available for duty in pinstripes for a total of 41 days! The team & its fans have
    been royally screwed.

    Knowing that 3B Nolan Arenado may be on the block by the Rockies, Yankee GM cannot even make an offer
    to strengthen the Yankees. Hal Steinbrenner is too stingy & is not willing to pay the luxury tax.
    George would have been all over this kind of deal.

    It is hard to be a Yankee fan when you know that those in charge are not willing to strengthen the team.....
    if the Dodgers get JD LeMahieu this off season as rumors persist, I can no longer support a “cheap” Yankee
    organization.

    As of 2020 the top 5 rated MLB farm systems based on drafts & trades....
    1. Tampa Bay Rays
    2. Detroit Tigers
    3. Pittsburgh Pirates
    4. Baltimore Orioles
    5. Arizona Diamondbacks

    22.NY Yankees. And many say their ranking is on the decline.

    Red Sox have hired the first Black woman coach in professional MLB. Her name is Bianca Smith

    And here begins the “junk” pile of 2020-2021 by GM Trashman. Yankees acquire AJ Cole from Nationals
    for considerations ( probably a pile of shit)!

    If Yankees do not resign Tanaka, the pitcher plans to pitch in Japan.

    ^^^^^Cashman thinks he’s going to win a championship with “retread” pitching. Yes, AJ Cole failed as a
    Yankee in ‘18; now Cashman will give it a second try! Do not like how he’s forming Yankee pitching staff
    if this move is any indication.

    Yankees GM signs minor league OF Socrates Brito. Rumor has it that Plato and Aristotle are still on
    the market and are expected to sign soon! Someone, anyone....tell me Cashman is delusional.

    With each passing day during this year’s free agency, it looks like Yankee GM is going to let DJ LeMahieu walk.
    And I say FY Cashman & Hal Steinbrenner!
