Hate to say it, but with only about 40 games to go in the regular season, and considering how some other teams are currently playing, I'd have to say that there are about 6-8 teams better than the Yanx right now. With Seve pitching the way he has lately combined with a sporadic offense and Boone's head scratching strategy, we have very little chance in the post season.

^^^^ ....
A's are no longer in t/Yanx rear view mirror; rather in the passing lane, ready to set t/Yank back...???
2 bad the Yanx aren't in tha AL Central; they'd have a comfy lead....

Strength of schedule s/b in t/Yanx favor with plenty of games left to play with t/O's, TB, ChwSx, Twinkies, Tor, Sea, & t/A's....BUT t/Yanx tend to play down to the competition. The self-driving radar appears discrepant...
Gonna get interesting to say the least...

I've had it with Boone already. Sits there and lets garbage bullpen arms put games out of reach. It's like he gives up on games.

You hit it on the head mess. His inexperience and no clue how to handle a bullpen put close games we can come back on with our offense out of reach. I'm at the point I dread seeing green and holder come in. Use one of the 4 or 5 top relievers in middle innings if you have to to get control of a game. Their too set in terms of who can pitch when which is why some guys green and holder seem to be out there every day and some guys like chatman betances have a lot of time between games. Boone is a joke, has no feel for the game and never seems to be able to bring the right guy in and I'm sick already of watching a reliever getting lit up while he sits there spitting seeds and blowing bubbles. Cashman made a bad decision and needs to rectify it. The problem is despite boone this team has the second best record in baseball and will be tough to fire because of it. Although it didn't stop him from firing a certain manager who got us 1 game from the world series last year. I suspect cashman will be too embarrassed to fire boone admitting his mistake and we can only hope that he wakes up eventually. Boone looks lost, sounds lost and is lost!!!
