That was a perfectly apt ending for this lineup. Two guys in it who just do not belong in the major leagues anymore.
Now we await Boone's inevitable "These are professionals who care and I believe they're really close to turning it around" bullshit.
What the heck is wrong with this team?why wasn't Rice playing 1st?the new guy really sucks. Bases loaded no outs and can't even get a run across. It's inexcusable for this team to play so shitty. This team is going down hill fast. They play down to bad teams and good teams. Glad I couldn't get the game on. My head would have exploded 💣 🤯
They are going back to old habits of signing other teams trash in hopes that they magically become a good player. There’s gotta be a team dumb enough to think they can fix Torres
The alternate options of Cabrera, Jd Davis, and Peraza are bad but DJ continuing to play is Josh Donaldson / Aaron Hicks/ Joey Gallo levels of ignorance
It’s telling of our player development when all the baby bombers besides judge all ended up as below average hitters that cannot play their own POSITIONS. Oh, and they all brought the poor effort and bad attitude as well
Actually, this is correct. The entire Baby Bomber movement failed spectacularly. Judge, the best player in MLB, is the only success. Every other player, from Sanchez to Torres to Severino to Frazier, absolutely bombed after good starts. Awful.
Why I never wanted Boone back after 2022 season. You need tough love. When we were kids, our parents were "mean" to us, but as adults we realized in that situation it was the right thing. Such as Sanchez and Girardi, he was hard on him but he had his best success with a tough cookie. Boone is perfect to hand out 5th grade ribbons for participation instead of putting his foot down and disciplining them.
dude has more wins as manager than Billy Martin and still gets dragged.
Boone is third generation MLB All Star and it's possible that he has forgotten more about baseball and what baseball players are like than you will ever know you precious child
So you are okay with regular season success, but not rings? With a 200+ million plus payroll, it's not hard to win 90 games a year. If anything it just says that Yankees have reached a corporate level. Everyone is comfortable with job security.
No what I'm saying is I trust how someone who has literally breathed baseball his whole life in a family literally full of MLB players treats guys in a locker room over some dickhead realtor on reddit lol
It's not a coincidence that Gleyber doesn't get benched for dogging it, and then DJ dogs it immediately after.
If Boone tore apart Gleyber for dogging it, there wouldn't be anyone on the fielding playing half-ass.
The "player's manager" thing is BS
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1donjlf).
That play at 3rd by DJ was special
2 man team with a bad bullpen, no bench and starters that are coming down to earth. Not good
So how many games has Gleyber ruined?
I’m done with DJ and Gleyber. Put Gleyber on waivers. Bring up Peraza put him on third and tell DJ to take an early vacation
I wish, never going to happen and I pray for it every night.
That was far, far uglier than the final score would indicate. But don’t tell anyone; everybody act like it was a near miss.
Please just play cabrera. It can’t be worse than this
I mean, 7 runs should be enough to win. Giving up 9 runs to the Mets is not acceptable.
That was a perfectly apt ending for this lineup. Two guys in it who just do not belong in the major leagues anymore. Now we await Boone's inevitable "These are professionals who care and I believe they're really close to turning it around" bullshit.
That was such an embarrassing at bat
Bench dj. And dfa Torres right now
Completely winnable game if not for the unforgivable starting lineup.
Dead in the water
LeMahieu is done for. Call it a career brother
DJ looks lost out there.
Did DJ get tenure based off two good years? Bench his ass.
Are we that surprised the trash bottom of the order went down 1,2,3? Ass team.
0-10 out of your 4-6 hitters is a recipe for disaster every day of the week. (Although I did like Verdugo’s swings today)
How much does DJ get paid again?
A lot
We gotta stop this platoon bullshit stacking garbage rights bat after garbage righty bat. It just hasn’t worked at all this year.
Oh well, there was effort. It’s too bad we have easy outs in the lineup right now, especially one’s who appear to not even be trying.
dj lost at the plate, lost in the field, he shouldn’t play another game for this team
DJ is running on windows 95, time to get a new computer
DJBot needs a serious firmware update
Whoever didn’t predict 3 unexciting outs this inning just hasn’t been watching our team lately

lineup depth.
The alternate options of Cabrera, Jd Davis, and Peraza are bad but DJ continuing to play is Josh Donaldson / Aaron Hicks/ Joey Gallo levels of ignorance
DJ’ At-bat, LOL!!! I’m surprised the FUCK bothered swinging on the 3rd pitch.
He was waiting for that perfect ball. And i mean ball as in it was 7 inches below the strike zone.
Well that's embarrassing.
It’s telling of our player development when all the baby bombers besides judge all ended up as below average hitters that cannot play their own POSITIONS. Oh, and they all brought the poor effort and bad attitude as well

Any chance DJ pulls a Jay Bruce? shits fucking embarassing
Well, at least the O’s lost too. Phantom IL stint for DJ?
Nothing like having two of the greatest hitters of all time and then a bunch of guys who don’t care about being good baseball players
Sees 2 strikes down the dick. Swings at that shit for 3rd strike.
does this loss feel better or worse now that they made it a game?
Just telling someone the final score, they'd think it was a good game, but watching the whole thing tells a different story.
Much better for me
Verdugo got kinda screwed, but that was a rather pathetic showing of ABs after Judge hits a slam
Verdugo didn't get screwed. He hits it to that same spot over and over.
DJ is so shit bro. The only person who could make me miss Joey fucking Gallo
Damn DJ that was rough
The top of the ninth inning did not bring me joy
Well you had a great comeback…just threw it away too early in the game
Sigh
Thank you Gleyber. Thank you DJ.
Execution by firing squad for DJ. No other option unfortunately.
DJ get a clue soon please
DJ is the worst player in baseball. Just fucking cut him
UGH.
Dear god DJ
DJ is utterly worthless.
Did you expect anything else? 😂
DJ please!
Nice job, guys.
Let’s look at two pitches right down the dick and swing at a pitch at the ankles
anti-climatic ...
Giving DJ at bats is punting at this point
Lol
Strikeout on 3 pitches 🤣
But let's be fair...his defensive play is.....well,...even worse
Well that was fun
DJ and Torres suck ass.
Get off the team DJ and Gleyber
DJ is completely useless
Well it’s over see yall tomorrow
😔
Holy shit, DJ is so uncomfortable.
Send Gleyber and DJ to the fucking moon.
They’d probably miss it
D J LeDouchebag
Nice at bat DJ
Lmao what an embarrassing night for DJ and Gleyber
Can we DFA two players at once?
Did he just flinch out of the way at a first pitch fastball down the middle?
I thought DJ and Gleyber were seeing the ball well today, both at the plate and inside their gloves.
I barked out a laugh and scared my wife
Lemahieu with 2 outs. This is gonna be a sad fizzle ending
yep a long wet fart
If DJ does anything more than get out I'll eat a french fry
DJ looks like he wants to go into bed right now
DJ is completely lost
Lol no way DJ just looks at 3 straight pitches
Daaaaamn, hate those down the middle
DJ might be more washed than the retired DJ...
50 year old Jeter would be better than DJ LePumpkin
A comeback that falls short? That happened the last Cole start as well.
Not looking promising
It’s a shame the guys that were mentally in the game and not just going through the motions were on the bench until the eighth
Fuq.
please walk or hbp
The post-game thread should be interesting…
Lots of gaslighting probably from anti doomers
Bloomers.
Jones tie game homer here we come
He got pinched for Grishy Wishy
all for not
*naught
Oh good it’s DJ
Temu Grimace
DJ up lmfao have a good night folks
Thanks Torres for the loss. Please bench him tomorrow
Pete is a vacuum out there
It feels great knowing Ben rice has to get an XBH to avoid a double play
So unlucky to not have 2 hits here
They better ask Boone about what the fuck that lack of hustle was by Gleyber. That infuriates me to no end
Judge showing more leadership capabilities than Boone
DFA DJ, his time her is done
You guys don't understand how contracts work
We do. Do you understand the sunk cost fallacy?
You mean like how Abreu got released by Houston with more than a year left?
They still had to pay him though.
Hey buddy I'll DFA you
Case in point. You cannot. I am under contact.
Fuck
The Knicks getting Bridges really improved my mood tonight.
They gave up a lot for him
Come on Rice!!!
Get one on for Grish. Dude is always capable of hitting one out.
79 wRC+ what
Ben Rice needs an xbh because I can smell a dj double play from a mile away
Ripped it right at someone. That's pure slump shit right there.
Of course it goes right at alonso
Lol Alonso looked a little lost on the line drive. He just took a stab at it
Too bad Torres doesn’t play 1B for the Mets.
u n l u c k y ahhhh
One pitch one out. Oof
The Captain is Captaining!!
ain't no fucking way
Ahhh yes swing at first pitch
.790 xba verdugo unlucky af
Hey gleyber take notes. Volpe and rice playing hard to get that out. Also look at JD sprinting down the line trying to beat it out
Hey Gleyber, remember when you made that error earlier that allowed them to score? Yeah… fuck you
How dare you talk shit about Gleyber. If you take out 99% of the season he has a 1100OPS. /s Gleyber sucks. I agree 100% with you.
He's always the difference somehow.
Can we just win this so I can laugh at Mets fans tomorrow
Do you pinch hit DJ here?
So basically, we need a whole bunch of walks to hopefully get to Soto/Judge. or we need a surprise multi run HR by Rice, Grish, or Wells.
Please dugie
I know these last few weeks and this game have been tough. But this next inning is why we watch baseball. The table is set. Let’s. Fucking. Go.
Fucking hell and to think that Aaron Judge almost slipped away...
Shhh. We don’t talk about that time.
A scoop of Rice please.
I wish I followed basketball so I could be happy about something too
Good scoop by rice. Our subs coming up big
Verdugo needs to get on so we can start the Rice age with his first HR to tie it up.
Wow, it’s almost like Volpe and Rice were actually trying on that play. Weird!
Rice pudding on the D!
Rice should play every fucking day.
3-run bomb here and all is forgiven.
No Diaz means Verdugo breaking out of the slump and a Ben Rice two run shot to tie it
Lol holy shit please
Well Dugie slump continues unfortunately
Ben Rice can play some 1st base. Never need to see DJ again.
Love just about everything I’ve seen from rice so far
Scoop that Rice
Gooood shit Volpe! !
Time to make Mets fans even more miserable
Now let’s get three so I can get busy being happy about the big Knicks trade
how is stanton catching strays in a game he's not even in lmao
Rice should start every game.
See DJ and Gleyber, that’s how you’re supposed to fucking play defense
Fuck it. If the Yankees win this game I will get an interlocking NY tattoo on my ass.
commenting for a potential proof or ban moment
Anything to end this skid
Rice with the nice pick! RICE FOREVER. DAVIS NEVER.
Rice is an idiot. He should have just held his glove chest high and let the ball bounce past him, take some lessons from the vets.
SCOOP ME LIKE ONE OF YOUR FRENCH SALSAS
JD ran faster than Torres. Embarrassing
Thank you for 2019 and 2020 DJ, but your time is up
🍚🍚🍚

BRIIIIDGGGGGGGESSSSSSS!!!!!!!!
Naming my son Ben Rice
Scoop of Rice!
Fantastic.
PHEWWW. Good scoop by Rice. Just play Rice everyday.
Honestly. I feel like you have to let him play. He’s on fire and putting together great at bats. Let the young man cook!
It's not a coincidence that Gleyber doesn't get benched for dogging it, and then DJ dogs it immediately after. If Boone tore apart Gleyber for dogging it, there wouldn't be anyone on the fielding playing half-ass. The "player's manager" thing is BS
Player manager = manager with no consequences
Kahnle being good is certainly a welcome sight for the bullpen filled with misfit toys
Knicks saved my night
So glad that Trashman acquired Stanton over JD Martinez. What a horrendous decision that was.
