Fire Joe Girardi...

Question

2 of the Yankees&#x27; last 3 losses came because he tried to mix and match pitchers/batters and it hasn&#x27;t worked. Coke was highly capable of facing the next 3 hitters but he only goes 1 batter and is taken out for Veras who was in there too long and Marte who was in there too long and both, imo, shouldn&#x27;t be in there ever. He&#x27;s certainly not doing a good job. We might as well get Farnsworth back. Yes...I know I&#x27;m bitter but it&#x27;s no coincidence that the Yankees&#x27; playoff streak ended when they let Torre go.

I wonder if I can start a "Fire Joe" chant tomorrow. I am sitting in the bleachers. Perfect chance to make my point known. If you hear it...you&#x27;ll know who started it.

Should have been Don Mattingly&#x27;s job!&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;Yanks will win tomorrow.

DunnoMate · Answer

Girardi has a tendency to over-manage the game. Not sure he will ever learn. It may be OK with young overachieving low expectation talent like he had in Florida, but with an expensive veteren team like the Yankees is a recipe for disaster. Every move is analyzed and critiqued. It becomes a vicious cycle not being confident to manage effectively for fear of making a mistake. Yanks have weak middle relief and are especially vulnerale if their starter can&#x27;t get through 6 with a 2&#x2B; run lead. Opposing teams will present excellent value against NY this season. Pick your spots and it will be a proftable year.

bayace · Answer

i think the kid ransom, ranson, what ever his name is. his bat is killing them to i dont think there two runs scored helps out. the boy lee is a beast. but 9 fucking runs in the 8th they killed my under play. i had the under first five and for the game. i dont know if the yanks cold bats is a good reason for the fireing of joe. but he does make some knuckle head moves. i would have left c.c in there untill the next inning, or untill his fat ass started blowing hard. fuck it he&#x27;s getting all this loot let him earn it.

[Quote: Originally Posted by baseballcharlie] anyone realize the Yankees have not won a ring since they went away from their farm system?&#xD;&#xA;&#xD;&#xA;[/Quote]&#xD;&#xA;Thats not the problem. I bring this up every time I see a comment like that. List me 1 player, besides Lowell and Soriano, that has made an impact in MLB that was traded from the Yankees&#x27; farm system. Lowell was good but it now hurting and has been for a while and it&#x27;s been a while since he&#x27;s been affective. And Soriano was and is as good as they come, but look at the numbers, A-Rod has had better numbers than him. Don&#x27;t get me wrong, I&#x27;d love to have Soriano patroling our outfield right now and keep Cano at 2nd, but no way will the Cubs give him up.

Those are morons who don&#x27;t realize that Torre one of the best managers when he&#x27;s given what he was given with the Yankees. Hey...all I know is that his streak is still going and the Yankees&#x27; has ended.

Sparky10191 · Answer

&#xD;&#xA;The problem is that they have recently been working on the farm system but their still not developed enough. We all know the problems with Hughes and Kennedy. Than Austin Jackson is still too young to be brought up. Humberto Sanchez who is expected to be in the bullpen later on this season is still recovering from Tommy John, and a bunch of other rising stars are just waiting for a spot. Girardi certainly doesn&#x27;t know when to bring somebody up thats for sure. I would LOVE to pitch me opinions to someone who would listen.
