If Boone doesn't get US to the WS; say Goodbye Boone & HELLO Tamp Bay Manager.... Why would Tampa allow him to escape??? Because Tampa Bay DOESN'T WANT TO PISS off Inger The Spiritual Guide.... |

I am impartial. I don't think he adds anything Girardi didn't do and I don't think he lacks anything Girardi did. I'm of the mind that these guys just need to not be totally inept (Ausmus, Dusty Baker level) and there really isn't much distinction. I don't get to watch nearly as many games as I used to, but I have seen him make some absolutely awful moves, like Didi bunting with guys on first and second with none out and giving away a free out on top of taking the bat out of Stanton's hands to give the Rays much more favorable matchup. There's no excuse for any major league manager to make a move like that.

There's no excuse for any major league manager to make a move like that. I've watched most to nearly all of the games....I have a mental count of the number of games that ended up losses that involved poor decisions by Boone....that count is at 5 games, and possibly 6...…….I have not seen a Yankee manager ever...and I am saying back to Joe McCarthy...have not seen a Yankee manager ever make so many poor manager decisions.....it has become beyond acceptance, but I try not to beat on it too much, because I know that gets tiresome....I wonder now what Cashman will do...…..I bet the next hire will have a body of work in managing a club..... |

I was honestly happy with them just keeping Girardi... my opinion of Girardi was so up and down all the time but I didn't mind him that much. |

I thought Girardi was just OK....with his contract up, I could see Cashman looking for a fresh approach....I was greatly surprised to see a guy who had never managed, heck...had he even been a bench coach?....I remember him as a color guy in the booth....seriously, from all the good experienced baseball people to choose from, Cashman selects Boone? I love Cashman, and think he is brilliant, but this may be his biggest clunker.....enough from me.... |

I love Cashman, and think he is brilliant, but this may be his biggest clunker.....enough from me.... Hey I trust your words more than my own. Like I said I really haven't been able to watch as much ball as I have in other years. Little guy is going on 3 so he is a full-time job on his own haha! Not bringing back a guy who brought you within 1 game of going to the WS for a guy with zero experience as a manager is questionable at best. Aside from that, I think Cashman's record with trading these past few years is pretty much unrivaled IMO. Getting that haul for Chapman, bringing him back and getting Warren back, dumping rule 5 guys for a top end reliever. If he lands a TOR starter who actually performs they are WS contenders. Right now I don't think the rotation is strong enough for a 7 game series, but this bullpen could carry them...you never know. |

I went to a no... I don't dig how he waits to use bullpen. Or waits to get pitchers up in pen. Won't goto the big relief pitchers if we don't have a lead. If we're down by 1 in the 7th with middle of order coming up... GO with a big relief pitcher... Keep it a one run game don't goto Shreve n let the deficit get bigger and when a RP is struggling... Start getting another warm first game today DRob is struggling and nobody was up. Even Kays bitching on TV now about why Hicks given game off... You gotta win these games...

Summoning Oliver Perez was his first mistake.
Edit: He somehow has a 1.13 ERA this year (Wtf?)

The players seem to prefer him over Joe and since they are the ones who play the games, gotta go with their feelings. The dugout seems looser. I don’t know about the clubhouse cause I’ve never been there.

I really don't think managers matter all that much anymore. Particularly on the Yankees who don't steal, hit or run, or bunt very often. Not a lot for managers to do.

Not a lot for managers to do. most don't.....the Yankees are definitely negative for the season based on manager decisions...about 5 games... I wonder (and, it's unknowable) what the Yankees would be like if, say, Kevin Cash were their manager.... |

I don’t get metrics relating to managers decisions. I do get the obvious ones like leaving a pitcher in one batter too long and getting burned, but how these decisions can be transformed into absolutes translating into wins or losses seems iffy..

Leaving a pitcher in only one batter too long sounds really, really nice right about now. I can recall fans talking about rookie pitchers having the deer in the headlights look about them in a big game. That's how Aaron Boone looked yesterday. Completely overmatched by the job and the moment, having absolutely no idea what to do. Which is just what any team should expect when they hire someone who has never managed at any level just because he seems like a good guy. |

There's not a lot for managers to do, but there is something and it didn't go particularly well last night. Speaking of which, has he gone to take Holder out yet or is Holder still on the mound at Fenway, helpless? |
