    Yankee off season thread, news, notes, rumors and ideas

    We'll boys it the off season, again. Cashman has alot of work this winter with potentially losing Tanaka, Paxton and Happ. How much BP help do we need?

    Priority one has to be resign DJ

    Would you guys mess with the lineup? who goes, who stays and who do we try and acquire

    I know what cashman is gonna do . He will resign Tanaka , possibly bring back paxton because of his love of injury prone players , then bring back DJ and then trade for a reliever and call it an off season.

    What I want them to do is rebuild the starting rotation around cole , get a good reliever , get rid of Sanchez and sign realmuto and then resign dj . But I know that won’t happen

    They are stuck with Chapman but they can get rid of the guy who caught him when he blew it these last two seasons

    Will you actually keep your word this time?

    Last time you said this was if the yanks didn't sign Machado or harper you wouldn't be here nor watch. Yet, they signed neither and you were still watching, still here making asinine statements and doing a wonderful job of contradicting yourself.

    I don't think he's a bust. I think he just needs the right motivation to pick himself up & play harder.

    Brantley is definitely the type of hitter we need. But, at 34 next year and coming from the Astros, I'm hesitant. I'm okay with Frazier in LF. Maybe he'd be willing to DH with a part time OF role?

    Even better, maybe we can get a hitting coach that teaches these guys situational hitting and how to slap the outside breaking ball to the opposite field?

    That means you won't have to post. Correct? Sounds like a plan to me.

    Failure to work counts deep (thereby forcing opposing pitchers to play on your terms as opposed to dictating them)--check.

    Getting bushwhacked yet again by a compromised pitcher (I mean Glasnow just did 3 innings on 2 days rest one year after a season ending injury)--check

    According any sort of relevance to a bunch of dorito swilling, neckbeard geeks that dictate your gameplan -- check

    Failure to capitalize on offensive opportunities with inconsistent, aggressive overswinging (or in Stanton's case, non-swinging) -- check

    Systemic organizational failure from the top down to engender anything that bears any sort of semblance to heart -- check.

    We might as well be discussing Paul Byrd shutting us down 15 years ago because we've learned nothing as an organization in pressure games since then.

    Wash, rinse, repeat.

    Im on the fire Cashman train with you. After I saw his end of season presser and heard him say something to the effect of " we will get together with everyone and work our process that we;ve had in place for the past ten year yadda yadda " I thought, the process that has netted you a WS 11 years ago, that process? Come on, its time to go Cash. Yeah, he puts together a competitive team year in a year out but he never makes that one trade or two that puts the team over the top cuz the deal might favor the other team. The idea of losing the battle but winning the war must be a foreign concept.

    I'd rather have a team that wins 2 or 3 times in ten year with a couple of bad seasons than being almost good enough every year. So yeah man, im with you, time to bring someone in that has a grasp on todays game. Its no longer put the most talent on the field, its a game of making the parts fit well, which, hes done a very poor job of.

    Yeah, not making a trade at this years deadline should get him fired by itself.

    And please.........don't worry.........Boone and Cashman will get plenty more opportunities to further tarnish this once proud organization as no one here is ever truly held to account.

    That is precisely why I don’t expect the front office to do much this off season other than what I listed before .

    One thing you left out in that previous post was the debacle that was game 2 . That was just inexcusable
