Stop Blaming Caballero. The Yankees Couldn’t Score

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


I’m seeing a lot of attention being thrown at Jose Caballero after the Yankees got embarrassed by the Angels Monday night.

Yes, Caballero made an error. Yes, it was ugly. But can we please tell the whole story?

When Caballero botched the potential double-play ball in the sixth inning, the Yankees were already losing 6-1. His mistake allowed another run to score and made it 7-1.

So, explain something to me. How exactly did Jose Caballero lose this game? Were the Yankees suddenly going to score six runs if he fielded that ball cleanly?

Because they didn’t. They scored one run the entire night.

One.

Spencer Jones hit a solo homer in the fifth inning. That was it. The Yankees finished with six hits, didn’t draw a walk and went quietly against Angels rookie Walbert Ureña, who gave them seven innings of one-run baseball.

And let’s remember what happened before Caballero’s sixth-inning error.

Elmer Rodríguez had already put the Yankees in a 4-0 hole. The Angels made it 5-1 in the fifth. Then Michael Fulmer‘s errant pickoff attempt helped another run score.

It was 6-1 before Caballero made the error everybody wants to talk about.

That’s context. Caballero deserves criticism for playing sloppy defense. Absolutely. He’d probably tell you the same thing. But blaming him for a 10-1 loss is ridiculous.

The Yankees didn’t lose because their shortstop booted a ball while they were already getting blown out.

They lost because they couldn’t hit. They couldn’t score. And they couldn’t give themselves even the slightest chance to win.

You don’t beat anybody scoring one run.

Stop looking for a convenient scapegoat. Jose Caballero didn’t lose this game. The Yankees offense did. Get over it.
