Yeah I'm sure it had nothing to do with team ownership not going after pitching during the off season.

...yeah, blame it on the pitching coach...because after all, no way Cherington should be held accountable.

So what's your real point?
Do you expect teams to make wholesale player changes and/or fire their GM on May 7?
I'll say this much, it's not impossible.

So, why DO we have coaches?
Whenever the team, or those who have to be COACHED are doing poorly, we just need to fire the GM.
Is that it? Okay.

No way to know the real conversations leading to the Axe. Could be irreconcilable differences between mgr and coach, coach could be a dumbass, etc. Or could be scapegoating.

Conspiracy theories? How about:
The Manager could be a kiss-ass to upper management and is trying to convince them HE is doing well and their last WS wasn't a fluke with Papi carrying the team with huge big hits after big hits and they aren't headed to their 2nd straight last place finish with him as the MGR? whew!

Losing 5 of six to the Yankees and yeeech Rays probably did not help matters. Hell Farrell was a former pitching coach, should have fired him for improper supervision of his coach. The way some of these "super" teams are under achieving we'll see more heads in the chopping blocks before too long.

...I could try to explain it to you but I doubt you'd understand...this is the very same coach that was in place when the Sox won the WS 2 years ago.

...did he suddenly lose his mojo?...or more likely does it have more to do with the difference in the 2 different staffs?...Cherington was the one who decided to let his 2 best pitchers walk during the off season and replace them with the same staff you were scoffing at awhile back...any of this sinking in yet, dumbass?

Farrell was a pitching coach? Oh yeah...I seem to remember that......but his and Cherrington's pitching staff was "good enough" to be 12-1 for the Redsox to win the WS before the season began.....so what went wrong? Lmao

Maybe it was a communication problem between the MGR, Pitching COACH and Pitchers.

I'm not sure and I don't give too much sh!t about it....and while it's still early in the season, I expected the Yanks to win more games than them from the GET-GO.

I see I have to be careful with my sarcastic comments:

You are an expert cheap shot artist.

By the way, how's your boy Billy Beane' s team doing?
It's early....and they still feel "good". Lmao.

Roll that around yer mouth.
 
...uhhh, relevance?

...never mind...I think you have clearly illustrated once again that you are a grotesquely disturbed individual...Freud would have a field day with you.

...actually, now that I think of it, you'd probably cause Freud himself to seek psychoanalysis.

Billy Beane, .....better than Cashman .....despite the fact that his teams have won..HOW MANY PLAYOFF series ?

Get yer nose out of his butt! Not a healthy thing.


Just the facts ma'am....jes the facts.

No time for esoterical BULLSHIT!
 
...you were soundly thrashed on the poll comparing Cashman to Dombrowski...would you like another poll comparing Beane to Cashman?

Your buddy has no answer for my said reply because he is obsessed with his personal little biased anti-Cashman agenda.


Wake up and smell the coffee.

Go Yanks.....put the Birds in a DEEPER hole.


Gee whiz....I'm very afraid of those "other" A.L East teams.


Some of you guys should be ashamed of yourselves after writing the Yankees off prior to the season.

SHAME ON YOU....not me.

More so its an opportunity for you to show us how redundant you can be. You need to let things die.

Well, I happen to think your "Mr Know-it-all" buddy needs a thing or two REPEATED, especially when he offers no other counter point except personal insults.....and he once accused me of "complaining" over having to deal with more than one poster with a differing opinion.....lmao....I'll gladly welcome discussing an issue with more than one opposing point of view - but HE is the one trying to get me censored or banned because I don't kiss up to him or genuflect whenever he says anything about anything. lol



Here they go-
"Oh please Mr Moderator, tell him to go away...doesn't he know I'm supposed to ALWAYS be right"?

...you're just begging for it, aren't you?

...did you ever decide if you wanted me to create that Cashman vs Beane poll?
 
...meanwhile, the Sox offense and defense has been pretty bad. And firing Nieves as pitching coach has actually resulted in the team ERA going up.
 
Opposing views are fine. I just would like it if every thread didn't have to go off in the same silly direction. Lets discuss what's going on with the Yankees or in baseball currently. I no longer care about who said what before or during spring training.

You always struck me as a big freedom of speech guy.
Kinda like a limousine liberal who brags about helping "them" but calls the police as soon as he sees one of "them" walking by his home. Lol

And I'm stunned you haven't been banned from this forum because of your many vile remarks made on other issues and also because you offer very little in baseball substance regarding the Yankee team or the opposition...
....you may not know it (of course not!)...but all you usually provide is some crap about the "bums" or the usual , REPETITIVE anti-Cashman hogwash.

Anybody ever tell you that before? Congrats, there's always a first time.

And I have also noticed a distastful streak of childishness and immaturity on this board.
A surprsing number who have difficulty with opposing opinions with one or two specializing in name calling, insults when they can't have it their way simply because THEY believe they're always right on everything.......and we're only discussing BASEBALL.......lmao. Hilarious.

My opinion - too many bobbleheads "yessing" each other too much.

And THAT is getting predicatble, old and boring.


Now how about another one of your nice loooooong stories about your adventures..... we can always use more wisdom and entertainment.

I liked the one about you being an expert on Judges because you sat in a courtroom listening to a case or two......

That was one of my favorites.

You just proved my point, who is not happy unless your belligerent, flaming on others.

However when you flame the likes of Men like My Brother, who DIED, (do to a serious injury in the line of duty). He was a LASD, if you even can comprehend what that acronym is for.

Do us all a favor and come to Southern Cal, where a 10,000 manned LASD force will have you in their cross hairs, go on punk make my day.....
