What fans said

  • “Austin Wells' .510 OPS is the worst by a Yankee in a season since Jim Mason's .445 OPS in 1976 (minimum 175 plate appearances). I am speechless 😶 what do you think happened to Wells?”

    u/Jheller223▲ 298despair

  • “Boone is so weird. Defends IKF and Volpe as “elite” defensive SS’s when everyone sees they’re not.”

    u/Hot_Injury7719▲ 244frustration

  • “the fact that he was an unrepentant piece of shit certainly helped him on his way out of the league”

    u/Stuckbetweenstations▲ 170rage

  • “Came into Boston with the best record in the AL and a chance to bury their arch-rivals. Instead they got swept, lost the division lead, almost got no-hit by Sonny Gray, and saved Boston’s hope for the season.”

    u/LargeNutbar▲ 120despair

  • “This offer is basically like a big fuck you. Which is crazy because I feel like baseball has a lot of juice right now.”

  • “Contreras is a whiny little bitch.”
