i didn’t think sending judge was so terrible. it took two perfect throws, judge still almost slid by, and the next guy up (gallo) could not be counted on to put the ball in play
xp agreed, that was lame

Do logistics require that everyone knows?
this is the most logical (ba-dum-dum) answer i can come up with. i was already kind of surprised that they were going to be able to choose, because it would seem like such a last minute feat to arrange all the travel, but also the merchandise and all that shit? either that, or a related reason, which is that they could declare their preference confidentially, but it would likely leak immediately anyway since so many people would have to be involved with the logistics of it

Lol, Yankees fans so want:
1. Boone fired.2. Cashman fired.3. No more analytics.
Seems like a great strategy.

number one is necessary, dude has no idea what is going on

cashman is very clearly constrained by a stingy (by yankees standards) front office, but he's been pretty excellent for 20+ years.
#3 is obviously not gonna happen, i think maybe those twitter fans think that analytics were behind boone's weird bullpen decisions or the fact that they would never ever start all their best players in the lineup at once, resting starters willy nilly and willfully hobbling themselves into truly pitiful record in day games.

i dunno, the first throw was pretty weak iirc. it WAS a great slide by judge but the throw home beat him by a lot

Boone legit cost this team 5-8 wins at least and that’s borderline impossible

you can't send someone on a ball hit that hard off the left field wall in fenway. just can't do it.

they played great. the pitching was incredible. no matter what happens with tampa bay that was a great game.

yeah i've barely watched this team for a variety of reasons but i did sit down and watch this game with intent and it was great to see an end-to-end ass kicking. there's a weird genre of baseball game where the score doesn't reflect the fact that one team dominated the other and this was a great example.
