    I don’t know the ins and outs of this team but I didn’t see Boone do anything I’d criticize last night. The bullpen had a day off, that was the game to go for. And he got the game to Weaver vs a PH w one out to go.

    Boone seemingly has three bullpen pitchers that he trusts, and one of them might be about to go Byung-yung Kim on him. Nice work, Brian.

    It’s pathetic how poor the platoon and bench options are. Again, nice work, Brian. Cleveland won that game with home runs from two pinch hitters. Boone has no one like that to turn to.

    And I joke with Al but I know he’s right about the bottom of the order. Their unexpected production is a gift.

    Lastly I know this Jazz guy got off to a great start but he reminds me of Starlin Castro. I’m not a fan.

    All in all it looks like another F- for Brian Cashman’s work beyond the stars. The Dodgers seem like they’re in another league, and I wouldn’t expect us to fare any better than the Mets.

    As much as they drive me fucking nuts the Yankees are winning the World Series this year.

    I’m not sure I agree a lack of PH options is a deep structural flaw. I mean, in a way, if you have stellar PH options it just means your starting lineup isn’t being optimized.

    The structural flaws of the roster that are revealing themselves to some extent are:

    1) the wasted money going to DJ and Rizzo

    2) a relatively shallow rotation in terms of guys who can reliably get you through 5-6, which in turn taxes a bullpen that was kind of hastily thrown together using Matt Blake voodoo

    Man, if we never came back I’d be fine. That was an absolute must win for them and pure house money for us. But we did, so I’m still grieving.
