NFT: Yankees vs A's - back home - 7:05p

Bricktop : 6/18/2021 6:43 pm
Whelp, that was a fun three games against the Jays. We don't do anything easy - although the last game was a solid win. Tonight we have Jameson Taillon vs former Yankee prospect James Kaprielian, who is having an excellent season. Oakland sports the 2nd best record in the AL along with the Devil Rays. I fear we're all going to need some shots of Jameson after Taillon shits himself. But you never know because, that's baseball, Suzyn.

Gleyber is back in there tonight, thankfully. And Gary sits. Love sitting your hottest hitter. Typical A-aron Poon move. Sweaty man-ass is playing 2nd again tonight.

Win.

On our men's softball 40 and over team has a better arm than Gardner. And it's not close.

How much is Gardner making? $3M?
Ok, maybe I should shit on the team more

But Jesus Gardy should if never been relied on as an everyday player this year.
In fairness

Taillon is hanging in there (though watch him shit the bed here) and they're tied against a pitcher who is pretty dominant so far.

He's not a professional athlete making three million dollars. So no. Let's not make Brett out to be Willie Mays out there though. But come on, Gardner is a huge liability out there.

You brought it up...don't walk it back.

He is not a huge liability unless you are strictly talking arm, and yes he is not plus. Christ, his arm even now is better than Ellsbury ever had or Johnny Damon for that matter.

I'm not walking anything back. Gardner is a disaster with that arm.

great job asshole.

Boone trusts Peralta way too much  
Giantfan21 : 6/18/2021 8:59 pm : link
And he consistently blows leads. Why is he ahead of Luetge in the pecking order ?
Poon is horrific  
Bricktop : 6/18/2021 9:10 pm : link
at managing a bullpen.

Hell, I would have brought in Luetge to face the last batter just to offer a different look. You're bringing him in anyways to face the next batter. Still the sacred lefty on lefty matchup that Poon covets.
but Peralta has worse numbers against Lefties then Righties  
Giantfan21 : 6/18/2021 9:16 pm : link
Great trade by Cadhman getting this Bum and Great use of Peralta by Boone who has blown at least 4 games this year so far
motherfucking home plate ump!!!!!

Giantfan21 : 6/18/2021 9:41 pm : link
was in the game with a 3-2 lead with a full bullpen outside of Loaisiga

You can say what you want about Gardner,  
Red Dog : 6/18/2021 10:38 pm : link
and I will agree that he is going over the hill, but he is nowhere near as big a problem for this team as Cashman and his hand-picked little dog Boone.

This game was a Cashman special. Kaprelian with some good stuff who Cashman traded away for Gray, Taillon who can't go more then 5 innings and has the 2nd shortest length for a starting pitcher in the AL, and Wandy " have you seen him pitch ? " Peralta blowing the game .

The sooner Cashman goes the better . He is going to make some awful trades trying to patch up the holes on the team and try to fight for a 2nd wilcard depleting an already barren farm system all under his watch even more
Even with Kaprielian, the hit rate for Yanks’ first round picks under  
Jim in Hoboken : 6/19/2021 9:21 am : link
Cashman has been awful. Even in that year, could have gone with Buehler and Hayes instead of Kaprielian and Holder.

Aside from Judge, and he was one of three that year, who else has made the majors? How many Anthony Sieglers do we need? I put the chance of him making the majors at about -5%.

That's more on Damon Oppenheimer, the Director of Amateur Scouting for the Yanks...very overrated.
You really can't put that on Cashman.
By the way, how does Peralta let Tony Kemp beat you?
I don't know what the Yanks were excited about in acquiring
Peralta, I guess that he can eat innings?

The farm needs to be more productive if we are not going to spend.  
Jim in Hoboken : 6/19/2021 10:39 am : link
Gil and Medina were both just promoted. But we don’t have any positional prospects of significance above A-ball right now. Florial seems destined to be the Gerald Williams, 4th OF type.

D.O. not being held responsible for the poor drafts is on Cashman. He’s literally produced 1-2 middling players each draft for years, dunno how he still has a job.

Sure it's on Cashman. It's his decision to keep Oppenheimer as The head honcho even though the Hit rate on First round picks and the overall production from the Amateur scouting is terrible.

It's all part of the lack of urgency throughout the organization because everyone feels unprecedented job security thank to Hal not giving a shit as long as he makes money

I want to see how the Cashman believers try and pin this on Tampa. This was Cashman's grand plan- build through the farm, clean out the old baseball men and run the team by analytices, and he was given carte blanche to do as he wished. Well, it is not working, and he there is no blaming the old school manager or Tampa this time. Bye Bye Brian
