This team is such trash

sorry bro, but it ain't the team. These are major league ballers who performed well some where else b4 they came here. How is it possible that all can play so poorly at the same time?

You can't blame the manager for everything. Girardi can't go out there and hit for them. Before the game yesterday I believed they scored 3 runs or less in 16 of 18 or something like that.

Because they are all past their prime. Once a player passes his prime, his numbers go down and that is what we are seeing with this Yankees team.

Now the miscues on the basepath and miscues in the field that we saw this weekend, those are the things that Girardi needs to fix.

yes you can, and i will, he's paid 5 mill a year to put the wrong guys in the line up day in & day out without having the balls to call out ownership...

Who is he supposed to put in the lineup genious? You're acting like the Yanks have some incredible bench

they are past there prime? arod's the oldest, tearing the cover off the ball as of late, will this continue, of course not, but will the team's ineptness on the field, looking like a bunch of little leaguers continue, and thats not on the coach? how many close games do we need to lose b4 you figure out who's really responsible?

the answer is very simple, hold ALL players accountable.... and i don't mean 'no bubble gum in the dugout, i'm talkin about getting these guys so pissed at me, they take it out on the opposing team, you see any life in this team, and unity, chemistry, fight? or do you see the same ole same ole going through the motions???? i don't need to watch 9 innings of this lifeless team to know what i am talking about... dammmmmmmmmm

Sox just got better:suds:

Red Sox activated RHP Carson Smith from the 15-day disabled list.

Smith, who began the season on the disabled list with a strained flexor tendon, was cleared to join the Red Sox after making it through two minor league rehab games. The 26-year-old was acquired from the Mariners over the winter and is capable of being a dominant set-up man if healthy.

Pablo Sandoval needs reconstructive surgery on his left shoulder, per ESPN's Buster Olney.

Got to think Girardi's gone as coach by the summer if they don't pick it up soon.

you can't make this stuff up... i tuned in twice to the yankee/balt game... in under a minutes time of watching i see servino drop the ball after tex makes great play at 1st to let in yet another unearned run, then i see macann get doubled up at 1st on a line drive, this is little league stuff!! ... and you tell me this isn't on the coach? who's responsible then?

another absurd stat, i hear the yankees are the most shifted team in baseball? hey meathead how bout a little strategy and have your hitters go the other way! afraid of hurting your players feelings?

that's why you are the smartest man on SportsHoopla!

I don't think he's at fault but you can't trade 25 players obviously. I do think the roster make up is more of the issue though. A lot of old players (30+) past their prime is the bigger issue
