Boone is a clown, and I totally agree with you on the Astros being a model franchise. I actually don't even hate them (well I hate Bregman) bc they're fun to watch.
And I don't even get mad at Boone for lineups-it's 2022 those come from the front office with maybe 1 or 2 exceptions.
His handling of the bullpen is a joke and obviously his communication is terrible. The players also clearly don't respect him and I was hoping Cole was gonna curse him out yesterday.
The Phillies are a great example of how random these playoffs are. This wasn't some well designed world series team, They got hot at the right time.Yea Harper got hurt but even with him they would have been a third place team. Last year they wouldn't even be in the playoffs and before the extra wild card SD wouldn't be either.
It's kind of funny the Al has the top 2 teams and the NL has the bottom 2 teams. Playoffs are a total crapshoot.
I actually don't want them to give Judge some stupid 9 or 10 year deal that he's gonna get from someone.
I just haven't seen any super long term deals for someone his age work out well for a position player. I've seen a couple for pitchers.
But I'd also like to see them doing dumb **** in general. Donaldson has been worse than expected but they essentially paid 56 million for 2 years to have IKF be their shortstop while putting Donaldson in Ursela's spot. (Urshela's salary basically washed with Sanchez who they never should have resigned) The Correa deal with the opt out he took would have made a million times for sense than all that money for a stop gap. Giving a reliver with a rifle for an arm and a ten cent head a 5 year deal was also pretty funny.
The fact they've started 3 shortstops in 3 games of the LCS without injury shows you they don't know what the hell they're doing.

I think we agree more than we disagree. Boone is such a buffoon for so many reasons. But **** like guys not running out fly balls bc they think they're home runs/outs is especially infuriating. Like I get a grounder to short dogging it to first. But Donaldson for example literally pimped a home run for a single and looked like a complete ******* in the regular season, then did the SAME **** in the playoffs. Like guys don't learn lessons. Their manager is a dunce. Fundamentally they are awful in the field. We all know Boone will be back though.
Do you want to re-sign Judge and how many years are you willing to give him?

It was bad enough watching Cano loaf out of the box but at least he was a great hitter- Donaldson does this **** on balls at that best will land in the first row of that Fischer Price stadium while hitting like **** all year.
Depends what he wants. But he turned down 7 years for a ton of money then had this year some i'm sure he can get someone to give him 9-10 which I'd stay away from.
