The New York Yankees season is a disaster. So much so that, according to Frangraphs.com, they no longer have a chance of winning the World Series. Zero, nada, niet.
We already knew that, but now it’s confirmed. Zero percent chance. Even the New York Mets have a better chance than the Yankees right now.
This dire situation is likely one of the reasons owner Hal Steinbrenner, general manager Brian Cashman and manager Aaron Boone got together to discuss what to do next.
After the 6-5 loss to the Boston Red Sox, an eighth consecutive loss, it is now time to look to the future.
Did the Bronx Bombers big boss want to see what his trusted men thought of the current situation in order to make a decision about their future as an employee of the box?
Maybe. Anyway, I hope.
However, manager Boone is once again unable to be candid even once in his career and hides behind evasive answers. According to him, it was just a meeting to get in tune with what they are seeing on the ground.
My eye. If so, it should have happened long before.
With the expansion of rosters, there has certainly been talk of the likely recall of some youngsters from the organization. The candidates could be outfielder Everson Pereira, infielder Oswald Peraza and receiver Austin Wells.
But we all know that this will not change anything at the end of this campaign. The problem, or rather the problems, are not there and will be back next year if nothing changes by then.
