MLB Twitter rips into the entire New York Yankees organization, feels $280,000,000 roster is not ready to dethrone Astros

For New York Yankees fans, 2023 has been one of the most difficult seasons in recent history. Despite being one of the top teams in 2022, and a favorite to dominate the league, nothing has gone according to plan.Things started early, when drama in the infield led to 2022 shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa emerge as a whipping boy for fans. Additionally, Carlos Rodon and Frankie Montas revealed injuries that exposed inconsistencies in GM Brian Cashman's dealings with the two starters.On June 3, things got a lot worse. Aaron Judge, who set the single-season MLB home run record last season, broke his toe on an outfield play. Again, New York Yankees GM Cashman came under fire after a &quot;short-term&quot; injury turned out to be a torn ligament in Judge's foot.Now, the team is last place in their division. Giancarlo Stanton and Anthony Rizzo have both been invisible, Judge is only now returning, and their clubhouse has been rocked by alcoholic outbursts. MLB analyst Joel Sherman recently highlighted the team's woes in a piece for the New York Post.Joel Sherman@Joelsherman1nypost.com/2023/08/05/yan… The Astros have beaten the Yankees in the ALCS 3 times since 2017. Have the Yankees actually learned the right lessons from those eliminations?345nypost.com/2023/08/05/yan… The Astros have beaten the Yankees in the ALCS 3 times since 2017. Have the Yankees actually learned the right lessons from those eliminations?&quot;The Astros have beaten the Yankees in the ALCS 3 times since 2017. Have the Yankees actually learned the right lessons from those eliminations?&quot; - Joel ShermanFans were happy to echo Sherman's scathing critique of the team. Sherman referenced Brian Cashman's inactivity at the recent deadline, and cited their arch-nemesis Houston Astros as a good comparison. While the Yankees have imploded to their division's last place, the Astros remain a strong contender.S. B. Roberts@maravillage44@Joelsherman1 No, the opposite.

Despite this, their .230 team average ranks 29th out of 30 teams in the MLB.NAC@ncajanc@Joelsherman1 100% agree but until the man in the picture is banish out of here NOTHING WILL CHANGE nor will lessons be learn 🤨1@Joelsherman1 100% agree but until the man in the picture is banish out of here NOTHING WILL CHANGE nor will lessons be learn 🤨mitch levine@mitchblevine@Joelsherman1 The fact that Cashman was renewed is a joke.@Joelsherman1 The fact that Cashman was renewed is a joke.Strawberry44@thebuzzsaw76@Joelsherman1 Brian Cashman has failed for over a decade. What do you think? Learn lessons? They don't have talent! Can they get rid of Stanton's contract? Donaldson's? What do you mean learn lessons? Look at the talent and money.2@Joelsherman1 Brian Cashman has failed for over a decade. What do you think? Learn lessons? They don't have talent! Can they get rid of Stanton's contract? Donaldson's?

After localizing some of the most potent talent in the world on their roster, the team still stands alone in the wilderness.conservativeJoe@ConservatveJo22@Joelsherman1 Under Trashman, they will never learn. He is too narcissistic and will never win at the ML level. His time here is done. Too many futile seasons. There needs to be a different voice and strategy.1@Joelsherman1 Under Trashman, they will never learn. He is too narcissistic and will never win at the ML level. His time here is done.

Despite it all, here we stand, and ten games seperate the Yankees and the top spot in the AL East.
