just like that aaron judge is the mlb leader in war and wrc+, tho he's only on pace for 46-50 homers this year

Just moved into the Top 10 in bWAR, but still a game behind Wander Franco. Having missed 11 games, pretty damn impressive.

Yankees coaches wtf are you doing
Anthony Volpe said he changed his stance after meeting up w/ Austin Wells & some other guys he played with last year on the off day. They were reminiscing & watching old ABs (& eating chicken parm) at Volpe's house when they noticed the #Yankees SS had veered from his old setup.— Gary Phillips (@GaryHPhillips) June 14, 2023

obviously judge is hurt but this is an objectively terrible lineup for a $280m team
https://i.imgur.com/xyPZn1p.jpg
they're 27th in batting (.229), 28th in OBP (.297, behind the tigers!) and 23rd in OPS (.708), because they still hit dingers -- and all that includes judge's insane numbers
not brian cashman's finest effort, and aaron hicks's rebound since joining the orioles doesn't say much for the coaching staff either

I love seeing stats like Josh Donaldson being 3 for his last 47 or was that Stanton
― calstars, Saturday, 24 June 2023 02:24 (ten months ago) link
donaldson homered tonight! now hitting .132/.200/.441 with is both incredible and slightly better than giancarlo's .184/.244/.377

Stanton looks utterly washed up, i think one thing that was telling for me from last season is he wasn't getting any XBH beyond home runs. he played 110 games and had 31 HR and 7(!) doubles, that's a pretty good trick.

The Yankees have officially dismissed hitting coach Dillon Lawson. Brian Cashman has never fired a coach in-season. He once told me that he doesn't believe in doing so, and that you need to evaluate each season in full. Clearly, he'd seen enough.— Bryan Hoch ⚾️ (@BryanHoch) July 9, 2023

After getting booed off the field coming out of the game in the fifth, Luis Severino sat down at the very end of the #Yankees' dugout.A couple players and coaches went over to pick him up.Severino hasn't moved a muscle since then. He's just sitting in the corner alone.— Max Goodman (@MaxTGoodman) August 5, 2023
last week he was quoted as saying "I feel like I'm the worst pitcher in baseball," at this point what do you have to lose by giving someone in AAA a shot and letting him rest/work on whatever's going on?
― JoeStork, Saturday, 5 August 2023 05:29 (eight months ago) link
absolutely no idea what they're doing on any level
i actually like aaron boone but a half-decent manager might have noticed that rizzo spent the last two months in a fog.
they have judge and they have cole. and then they have like a dozen injured 36-year-olds and anthony volpe (who sucks). i thought carlos rendon was a good signing! but this team is deeply fucked. has there ever before been a $300m last-place team?
i do love the higster tho
― mookieproof, Saturday, 5 August 2023 05:56 (eight months ago) link
I mean, as a hater and loser I’ve never followed them that closely, but I kind of assumed that part of the Yankee machine involved actually working with their players and trying to fix problems as they arose. Now it genuinely seems like an organization that feeds in $300 million to the machine and just leaves it to run.

honestly as the most casual of yankees fans…I find all the pitchforks out for cashman to be pretty funny. a year or two ago he was the best GM in the league…now they might have their first losing record in THIRTY YEARS and suddenly every decision they’ve made was terrible

i think he's been a v. good GM, and it's not his fault that rodon got hurt, and i suspect that signing judge to the gargantuan contract that will haunt the team for years to come was a decision made over his head
but this is a poorly assembled team, and doing *nothing* at the trade deadline was a dereliction of duty
