If I could take one moment completely out of Yankee history it would be Boone’s 2003 ALCS game winning extra inning home run. Glad they won that game but I wish he would’ve popped out and somebody else would’ve won the game for them. Without that home run most likely he would’ve never been manager of the Yankees 8 years and counting. |

Girardi got fired because he called out Sanchez. You're not going to get a "tough" manager.

Accountability he can’t say he makes anyone accountable. Look at the recent garbage with no benchings. Volpe has become an error machine, Wells forgetting how many outs and costs them an at bat with a runner in scoring position and Jazz getting doubled up on a popout to second but yet all 3 have not missed any time due to it. Those instances alone should tell Hal he needs to be gone.

Put Dominguez on another team he plays every game and bats in the same spot in the lineup. With Boone he gets days off right after a 4hit game and he might bat1st,2nd, 5th, 6th, or 7th. And he is a switch hitter who has been getting better from the right side but our crap for brains puts the newly acquired Slater up for him after Jazz hit a 2 run homer with nobody out. They would have to go 20-30 to end their consecutive above .500 season streak but if it meant Boone getting fired I am all for it.

I agree that he was not a good choice for Captain but in his rookie season they got within one game of going to the World Series and might’ve went if not for cheating. Based on what he did in his first couple of seasons I don’t blame them for making him captain as they had no way of knowing he would disappear in the postseason at that point. Also Jeter as a captain had a much better team as even when Jeter slumped or had a bad playoff series the team still won.

Who even is a "tough" manager these days? Is there an example of a manager really calling out a player in the press? The only one to sort of get called out was Devers.

Boone screaming at the 1B coach was funny as he had his thumb up his a$$ instead of yelling at Jazz to get back. Which he shouldn't have to do, but....
And let's look at the Mets 1B coach (another ex yankee) who is a base stealing savant that times up pitchers to a T and they steal alot of bases they never did before... Sent from my SM-S928U using Tapatalk |

I think the bottom line is if we had a healthy Cole we'd be there. Without him as a stopper we are no better than anyone else in the division. I thought Boone should've been gone after 2023. The pinch hitting and bullpen usage and um.... did he forget he has Rosario... But thats all minor. There's not enough pitching I dont care if you're Casey Stengal.
