Not aimed at you, but can we revisit the narrative that last years team was awful defensively due to poor managing? If my math is correct that would mean Boone is now the greatest manager of all time (since 2003)

That wasn't the narrative around Boone. The narrative on Boone was that he wasn't a good manager. Nice guy. Good representative of the team. Still not sure he's a great manager. Luckily, managing isn't really all that important. But I thought he should have got fired. Don't regret that thought at all.

Yeah, it was. You forgetting the defense and baserunning were narratives the entire season last year?

Also why should he have gotten fired if managing isn’t important lol

The team didn't live up to expectations any previous year under Boone. It was trending in a terrible direction from 2020-21. Part of the reason for the struggles was bad defense and baserunning.

Just because I don't think managers aren't that important doesn't mean you shouldn't fire them if the team isn't living up to expectations. You could argue that's even more of a reason to fire guys, because they're replaceable.

Effross Tommy John is a big problem.

I'm not surprised Peraza isn't on the roster, but he was playing well down the stretch.

My two least-favorite Yankees showing up in a big way with IKF and Donaldson.

(I actually don't hate IKF, I hate how the Yankees view him as an everyday player)

Good win. Didn't love going to Holmes in the 9th, but it worked out.
