Of course. Just saying there's something to be said for being in the playoffs year after year. As I've gotten older, I appreciate having the Yankees as the backdrop to my summer. If they were 20 games under, I wouldn't pay attention at all. Now I have a kid and the Yankees are a bond we have so yea I just view it a little differently now. Consistency is big for me. Missing the playoffs for 5 years in a row would be awful.Championships or Bust. That’s the Yankees Way. No Consolation Prizes.
That’s my biggest issue.. we’ve become a club that accepts making the playoffs as a win. That’s not us. It would be great to see some occasional “give AF” from the front office. And that starts with moving on from cashman.And let's be honest, we haven't been chip or bust in a long time. We haven't won one since 2009 and we still have the same GM and have had 2 managers over the last 15+ years.

Man October is such a crapshoot. The best team rarely wins it all. The best you can do if get in and pray.That’s my biggest issue.. we’ve become a club that accepts making the playoffs as a win.

Exactly! The Boss wasn’t putting up with that just hapoy to be here attitude. That’s crazy we haven’t won a championship in 14 years. That’s a problem!
The Jeter slide says it all!

While I agree with you, my issue is we continue to have the same problems come playoff time. We all know them and yet they aren't properly addressed. Highest paid GM and no series win in 14 years is absurd, especially when you factor in our payroll. Don't even get me started on the poor decisions he seems to be making more often and the reluctance to accept/fix the errors.Man October is such a crapshoot. The best team rarely wins it all.

How do you address good hitters turning to **** for a week? Is he supposed to test players for the clutch gene?While I agree with you, my issue is we continue to have the same problems come playoff time.

Yall are acting like last season was a one off... thats been our playoff story.Yea Cash couldn’t help for the team going cold and missing two of our best hitters (average wise) in the ALCS.
There’s A LOT of teams, especially ones with high payrolls, that haven’t won a World Series in the Last 14 years and have actually struggled (hello Mets). I get it we’re the Yankees, but a lot of stuff has to break right for those things to happen, as well as, good play.
There's better pitching in the playoffs so yea it makes sense. You act like the teams winning it are playing 80's style Cardinals baseball. No, most world series winners hit a lot of HR's.Bad hitting every single year though?.. cmon man. A roster full of power hitters with low averages, add the playoff pressure and its wash rinse repeat EVERY post season. What I am suggesting is maybe switch up the formula/move on those players.
