The Yankees need to fire Aaron Boone!!

[GP6971]

Last night he put in their "premium" closer Devin Williams who immediately blew the save which lead to a loss an inning later. And then tonite Boone called in their "premium" closer in the 8th inning in a tied 0/0 game. Loaded the bases and allowed two runs resulting in another loss.

Boneheaded move Boone.

1. I'm not a Yankees fan

so I think he deserves a raise.



But, yeah, it's rather puzzling when Williams has been struggling this season and NY trades for a couple of top-notch closers and yet Boone sticks with the guy who all too frequently wasn't getting the job done.

2. Indeed. A raise and an extension.

Cleveland is closing-in on the Yankees' wild card berth.



Eh, Boone has his reasons. Past match-up history? Right/lefty? Other relievers need rest? Horoscope?

3. History repeating itself tonight

Devin Williams' ERA now closer to 6 after giving up a couple of late earned runs to the Astros and blowing the game.

4. Just said that to my wife...I've been following since

the game is on AppleTV. What freaking boneheaded move putting Williams in again.

5. Maybe Williams

in a quiet clubhouse moment Williams took Boone aside and said, "Look, let me keep my job and I'll give you half of my salary."

It's gotta be something like that going on!

6. Watching the post game show on YES...his ERA is now 10.38.

Boone's reasoning for putting him in doesn't pass the test.

Not sure how or why I'm getting emails from Heavy on Yankees...looks like the tree is Heavy Sports/Heavy on MLB/Heavy on Yankees. They're not too keen (to say the least) on Williams.

7. Four more years! Four more years!

8. Fire the manager over two blown saves?

You guys break me up.
