Here's your problem. As a team they're hitting .229/.294/.423 over the last month.

Oh and they have a team era of 4.99 over that period too. So they're basically the rockies for the last month.

Was hoping Devin turned the corner going into All-Star break. Not DFA but put in low leverage situations now.

Watched their first at bat today and off it went. Leadoff batter gets to first. Rice strikes out swinging at ball 4 Judge swings on a 3-0 and pops out to second and Bellinger pops out to second. I will no longer subject myself to watching this garbage.

Thanks! It's one of my favorite sets. The Yogi card is cool. He had a bat auto and jersey auto.

New pieces? Yeah we need new pieces, we need pieces that are good at baseball. Get enough of those and the manager will magically look better.

Bednar threw 42 pitches. 5 k’s is great in 1.2 IP, but he has to be absolutely gassed. The Yankees can’t continue to use him like that or he’ll be dead in October.

Good. Kill em all. Certainly the bullpen budgeting hasn't worked....

At least Boone didn't throw Williams out to lose a 3rd game in a row.

Yankees snap 5-game skid after Paul Goldschmidt's pinch homer to avoid rare sweep in Texas

Schlittler gave them 5 decent innings of 2 run ball perhaps the offense could do something.

Boone let Devin pitch the 10th 2-2 became 5-2 Boone really is a bad manager how when he has Bed ar after having Thursday off a rested Weaver who could have went another inning Tim Hill anybody but Devin Williams. Putting their season on the line using the same guy who has failed so many times is asinine. 5-3 after Volpe drove in Jazz. Goldschmidt pinch hitting for McMahon.

11 pitch at bat but Goldschmidt flies out. Stanton is their last hope.

Well Stanton walked but Grisham lined out hard to center to end it. Sucks that Boone chose the hill named Devin Williams to die on. They acquired 3 relievers at the deadline and our crap for brains manager keeps sending out the guy who has been somewhat responsible for turning at least 8 wins into losses. Wildcard last spot lead is down to half a game. I think Williams shouldn’t get to pitch unless they are already getting blown out.

The other mistake Boone could be charged with tonight but it could go either way was when the Yankees tied it at 2 in the 6th and had 1st and 3rd with one out problem was the Astros had a lefty pitching and Bellinger and Jazz were their next 2 hitters. I know he wasn’t going to pinch hitting for Bellinger but after he struck out he had either Goldschmidt or Stanton to pinch hit for Jazz but nope let Jazz hit and he popped out to short right. Not going to crucify Boone over that move. The move that should get him crucified was bringing Williams in in the 10th.
