Just Who Does Brian Cashman Think He Is Kidding?

The Yankees have been dreaming of a rematch with the Dodgers at the World Series. Brian Cashman thinks running the same team back on the field this season is gonna get the job done. Now he is trying to gaslight all of us into thinking the Yankees are gonna be better than they were last season….

And no one sane believes that. Great, the band is back together once Gerrit Cole returns. The magic will be back and suddenly everything is supposed to change. Oh and having a full season of Cam Schlittler is a big upgrade IF he can stay healthy and productive but Cashman is all in on this team. He’s as stupid and delusional as ever and wants us to join him in delusion land. “We all understand in the postseason, you’ve got to bring your best baseball every series and if you don’t, you’re going home. It doesn’t mean we weren’t capable of great things. We just didn’t get the job done in that time frame against the Toronto Blue Jays,” Cashman said HERE.

And naturally Aaron Boone is his parrot and feels the same way. “At the end of last year, in so many ways, it’s as good as I felt about our team heading into the postseason in the years I’ve been here,” Boone said. “Obviously, we got beat up in the division round. It didn’t go our way. That doesn’t mean it’s not gonna go our way the next time. We think we’re really good. That doesn’t mean we’re gonna win 94 games again. It doesn’t mean we’re gonna win 88. But we think we have the pieces.” 

Obviously both of these bozos believe we are so good we didn’t need to make any improvements. We can just run the same team back out there and do it all again but win this time. Never mind that the rest of the division has made improvements and is stronger on paper. We can stay the same and maybe win 94 games again….or not. I’m leaning towards not because the left side of the infield is a disaster and Anthony Volpe is such a lost cause, but the Yankees will continue to foolishly stand behind him. The Yankees was us to believe he is the right piece? NOT EVEN CLOSE!

We are two weeks away from Spring training and Fangraphs have already made their predictions for this season and they disagree with the Yankees strategy, read more HERE. Not only do they think the Yankees are a LONGSHOT to win the division at 18.9%, but they only have a 41.1% chance at winning one of three wildcard spots. Hell, they even predict the Yankees to finish in FOURTH one game behind the Orioles. It hurts to read but I can’t say I disagree.

I want to see this team get back to the World Series and win but we couldn’t beat the Blue Jays last season. They owned us in the regular season so losing to them in the postseason wasn’t a surprise to anyone with a brain….so of course that excludes Cashman and Baboonie. The Blue Jays have made improvements over the winter, so unless they regress A LOT and the Red Sox and Orioles massively underperform Yankee fans should be ready for a long and frustrating season.

These clowns need to stop gaslighting us. I’m sick of it!
