We win that game by a razor thin margin and barely sweep the Rays. Boone has to be better. Without Rizzo we lose that game. Cashman has to go at this point.

Alio’s diary
Damn man, I know I have a shitty rep, but I don't think I've complained at all this year, and my complaining had reduced even before that, I think.
This is easily Cashman's best job in his entire tenure, for multiple reasons. A lot of things are panning out (ex. Stanton), Matt Blake may have been the best hire this team has ever made, and Boone was my dude from the start (I defended him even early when people were shitting on him).
And paying Judge without arbitration is brilliant. Mend that bridge now so maybe he opens up to giving the Yankees a chance to lock him in before testing the waters.
