I didn’t realize Cabrera told Naylor “you’re my son”.
This kid gives no fucks! He’s a true competitor! He bring that edge this team needed! I love him, Bader, and Rizzo!

The White Sox had the best record in the AL and the highest scoring offense in baseball coming into the series. The Yankees swept 'em and held them to five runs in three games. That'll work.
Halfway through the season, the Yankees are 41-40 and going nowhere. Missed out on their chance to win a title with this core because they were too busy resetting the luxury tax and sitting on their hands at the trade deadline the last few years.
JUDGE: I would like to see some improvements to the roster
HAL: IKF in CF
JUDGE: The team needs help
HAL: Paulie's back in the booth
JUDGE: Please get better players
HAL: Judge burgers
The Orioles are a money laundering front more than a baseball team, yet the Yankees played 29 innings in Baltimore this weekend and were good offensively in one of them. The Yankees half-assed an offseason with a clearly flawed team. You get what you deserve.
The Yankees have claimed, for baseball purposes, Jacob deGrom (who the Mets don't deserve). Additionally, the Yankees hereby claim Francisco Lindor from Cleveland if, in fact, there will be a large salary dump as has been widely reported.
That's a wrap on Nestor's regular season.
28 starts
158.1 IP
2.44 ERA
3.14 FIP
4.29 K/BB
+3.7 WAR
Lowest ERA by a Yankee since Guidry in 1978 (min. 150 IP).
This fan was holding this sign as the Astros players walked off the field after the National anthem. A few seconds later stadium security confiscated it.
The Yankees are a second rate organization, full stop. From an ownership that has no desire to let them become the juggernaut they should be to a front office that constantly goes for Plan B and C over Plan A to a manager that is a step behind every night.
Would be willing to be more patient with IKF if the Yankees hadn't passed on the greatest free agent shortstop class in history. Not his fault, but this is embarrassing.
I personally think it's great the Texas Rangers won the World Series by jettisoning all their bad players the last two years, almost all of whom were immediately scooped up by the Yankees.
Cleveland had the lowest ERA in the AL this season. The Rays had the second lowest.
The Yankees have scored an MLB record 31 runs in their first three postseason games.
The Yankees have a scheduled off-day on the Fourth of July for the first time since 1915. The Mets are in Cincinnati. No baseball in New York today is pretty dumb, MLB.
The final: Reds 5, Mets 4
The goat: Edwin Diaz
The stat: Bullpen ERA 28th in MLB
The streak: L1
The record: 14-14
The 162-game pace: 81-81
The emoji: 📈📉📈📉
Hal Steinbrenner said that he will “absolutely consider” exceeding the luxury tax if the Yankees need another piece to reach the playoffs. He used the Masahiro Tanaka signing as an example.
Jeter is leaving the Marlins because "the vision for the future of the franchise is different than the one I signed up to lead."
Translation: I want to win and everyone else just wants to make money. In that case, I wouldn't hold my breath on him joining the Yankees.
Jahmai Jones and J.D. Davis are a combined 0-6 with 4 K and a GIDP. They've taken 14 swings and whiffed 9 times. These are the players the Yankees choose to bat around Juan Soto and Aaron Judge.
I like that Verdugo gave them the best chance to win three days ago and now he's batting ninth while the guy who wasn't good enough to replace him bats sixth.
So all the Yankees did was add a rental middle reliever, meaning they essentially did nothing. Didn't load up for a postseason push, didn't sell and focus on the future. Pretty much the worst thing they could have done. Team's a total mess. Directionless, delusional.
It really is time to fire him. The June swoon is turning into a rest of the season swoon for the third straight year. You shouldn't get a third chance to show you're the person to pull the team out of it. Boone is not *the* problem but he absolutely is *a* problem.
"It feels terrible...but it's all right there in front of us. This is not the time to feel sorry for yourself, it's the time to try and get guys going."
- Aaron Boone on the Yankees' 6-16 stretch
What a sad day, I won't be retrieving any
@TrentonThunder
bats this season. I look out on the empty seats and I miss all the fans & the players. I can't wait until me and Dash can go out there and play baseball again.
