Tweaks the Yankees should make to end their 15-year World Series drought
NY Post
With the Yankees on an impressive run of mostly correct decisions, there’s some reason to leave them alone and just let the best team in the American League continue to roll. But they did raise serious doubt and leave room for suggestions (and even ridicule) following maybe the most inexplicable decision of this season, or any season.
So as usual, I’m here to help.
We still don’t know exactly who deserves the bulk of blame for the early, ill-considered intentional walk to Red Sox star Rafael Devers, but we do know it was not a move befitting three very smart people — Aaron Boone (USC), Gerrit Cole (UCLA) and Matt Blake (Holy Cross). They all offered some semblance of an explanation, but the only thing we understand for sure is they outsmarted themselves.
So for today we’ll ignore that the Yankees made arguably the best winter trade (Juan Soto) and also the best deadline deal (Jazz Chisholm) and offer our suggestions for how they get back to the World Series. Isn’t that where they’re supposed to be every year but haven’t been since well before the Core Four retired?
This won’t happen for three reasons.
Torres is hot — he’s hit in 15 of 16 games (.328) — following five miserable months. And Boone obviously loves Torres. Beyond taking seven years to remind him to run hard (at least enough to make it stick), Boone is a true believer. How do we know? The manager offers verbal bouquets regarding all his players, but the ones about Torres are the furthest from reality.
