Also do you have a crystal ball that shows the Yankee not going to the WS in 2023?
Just crazy SHIT!!! Our Team Mgt. from top to bottom is out of control. It is SCARY like a Stephen King Book/Movie.
And yes I agree with you that it is common sense that NOT ALL prospects will make it in the ML = However, those that we ID as potentially Top High Value Prospects should be given Major League Ample Playing Time with Proactive Consistent Coaching, etc to help them become champions and help take us to the WS.
Florial has less than 60 ML AB's = NOT AMPLE PLAYING TIME. Plus We are still talking about doing the same crap this mid trading period as we have done before at the costs of our Prospects.
--My Common Sense/Reality Ball told me on Feb. 17 2023 on the 2023 Spring Training Thread I posted the following:
A GOOD TRUTHFUL READ:
www.msn.com/en-us/sports/mlb/the-yankees-can-t-think-the-same-old-formula-will-work-this-time/ar-AA17BDDN?ocid=hpmsn&cvid=8556bef72d78440a9e84bb4ec4e1031d
The Yankees can’t think the same old formula will work this time
(AH, BUT THEY DO!!! SO SAD that they will for the most part make the similar decisions/take similar actions yet expecting better results = GIGGLING).
Or maybe, just maybe Judge and Stanton will be hot in the post season and turn the entire theory of this article to mush…
Excuse me, but they got to get to the Post Season first--YES, I have doubts at this point. Why?
I see at LEAST ONE other starting pitcher with serious injury; Pick em = Serv Or Rondon OR even Cole.
I see Stanton constantly in/out with injuries and out by Post Season; along with Rizzo (ah my back hurts).
I see Hicks & Donaldson both barely hitting over .200 BA and off/on with injuries constantly (oh my fingers hurt; oh my toes hurt)
Lack of more than one lefty in BP will come back to haunt us
Torres lack of hustle and smarts on the base paths
Mgt. will have no choice but to turn the remaining and/or latter part of the season over to Prospects, who will do OK but not enough to make the Post Season. But they will be ready for 2024...If Cash doesn't screw it up.
Cash will say at the end of 2023 "Facing the Obstacles we faced we really did OK..."
Boone will say, "I just do not know what went wrong..."
For some time now I have been talking with some of my friends who are very rich and avid Yankee fans to the point they have loss their common sense and reality.
For 12-years I have won money from them betting against the Yanks (sad to say but true = for I let the Facts, Reality And Common Sense to help me make my decisions not just PASSION).
So I confess I have made to this point the following bets:
Got 60-1 Odds that the Yanks will not make the Post Season for $500 = With Boone, Cash, Donaldson, Hicks, Torres etc. etc. etc. I got a good shot at this. And everyday it looks better...
Got 15-1 Odds that the Yanks will not Make or Win the WS for $5,000.
Had to be patience and work them to get these odds, etc. Timing is everything -- Plus the Yanks cannot continue year after year, to take similar actions, make similar decisions and expect BETTER RESULTS!!!
They Kept Cash & Boone = MAJOR ERRORS = Multiple FLAGS on the play.
They kept Hicks, Donaldson, etc. They traded away (WASTED) key Pitching Prospects in 2022 and we basically got screwed except for Trevino, etc.
At this point I see the Blue Jays and maybe Tampa doing better than us...Balt. with their Youth might surprise us...
I also have $$$ on the following:
Mets
Phillies
Blue Jays
Padres
Cleveland (My Dark Horse)***
And I might put for $$$ on Texas if I get the odds I am seeking. Definitely a huge long shot...
BUT deep down I hope the Yanks PROVE ME wrong and go to the WS and win it. It would worth be losing my bets...
P.S> I let the FACTS, REALITY, LOGIC, COMMON SENSE do my talking for me. Wish the Yankees go to and win WS but not going to happen = I probably just cursed myself???!!!
