Yankees Fans Send Clear Aaron Boone Message After Latest Ugly Loss

Yankees Fans Send Clear Aaron Boone Message After Latest Ugly Loss originally appeared on Athlon Sports. For once, New York Yankees fans are standing by manager Aaron Boone as the going gets tough. Tuesday's 4-0 loss to the Los Angeles Angels marked the Yankees' third straight shutout, the club's longest drought since September 2016. Aaron Judge and the Yankees' offense haven't scored in 29 consecutive innings, and their first-place lead is down to 2 1/2 games. Advertisement Social media users typically blame Boone in times like this, and yes, a segment of the fandom is angry with the Yankees' veteran skipper. However, others continue defending Boone, arguing that the Yankees' embarrassing slump isn't his fault. 'To blame Boone is idiotic,' one X/Twitter user wrote. 'He juggled the lineup ... but it still didn't work.' Added another: 'It isn't Aaron Boone who hasn't scored a run in [29] consecutive innings.' New York Yankees manager Aaron BooneJason Parkhurst-Imagn Images The Yankees haven't led since last Thursday's 1-0 victory over the Kansas City Royals. Angels pitchers notched 22 strikeouts over the series' first 21 innings, with catcher Austin Wells going down on strikes four times in that span. Advertisement Yankees captain Aaron Judge is 2-for-20 with 13 strikeouts in his last six games. Veteran first baseman Paul Goldschmidt is only 9-for-53 in June, and center fielder Cody Bellinger only has five hits and an RBI in his most recent 33 at-bats. 'When the entire lineup doesn't hit. It's absurd to blame the manager,' WFAN (NY) radio host Chris McMonigle commented. In a separate response, McMonigle told an X user, 'When the lineup is shut down like this. You know it's not on him. Not EVERY blunder is his fault. Not EVERY time a reliever gives up runs. He's not perfect. But they sure do win a lot.' New York Yankees outfielder Aaron JudgeDavid Butler II-Imagn Images To be clear, not every Yankees fan is letting Boone off the hook. A quick X/Twitter search reveals a significant number of fans wanting the Yankees to change managers amid the five-game losing streak. Advertisement It's nonetheless surprising that a decent portion of the fanbase has Boone's back, and we'll see if he—and, by extension, the Yankees—reward their faith. 'This goes beyond Aaron Boone,' read one post. 'These are PROFESSIONAL HIGH PAID baseball players on the field who aren't being held accountable. Doesn't fall on the manager!!'

Yankees Trade Pitch Partners Aaron Judge With $141 Million Infielder

Yankees Trade Pitch Partners Aaron Judge With $141 Million Infielder originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The MLB trade deadline is a time when the rich—a team like the New York Yankees, for example—get richer, typically by feasting on small-market teams that are pivoting to next season. Advertisement Now might be the time for the Yankees to start making phone calls, especially amid a five-game losing streak and a recent three-game scoreless stretch. Aaron Judge can't do everything on his own, and the last week has raised further red flags about the team's long-term offensive outlook. How does the thought of Cleveland Guardians infielder José Ramírez in pinstripes sound for an elixir? Bleacher Report's Zachary D. Rymer proposed the Yankees acquire Ramírez, a perennial All-Star and one of the game's most reliable sluggers. Ramírez, who turns 33 in September, entered Thursday hitting .319 with 13 home runs, 35 RBI, 20 stolen bases, and a .914 OPS for the 37-35 Guardians. Cleveland Guardians third baseman José RamírezKen Blaze-Imagn Images There are no indications the Guardians would even entertain trading Ramírez, who is in the fourth season of a seven-year, $141 million deal. However, we said the same thing about Rafael Devers, and the Boston Red Sox unexpectedly sent him to the San Francisco Giants for two pitchers and two prospects. Advertisement Ramírez makes perfect sense for the Yankees, both financially and offensively. Aaron Boone's club desperately needs another steady bat, and Ramírez's presence at third base could push Jazz Chisholm Jr. back to his typical second base spot. "As for how Ramírez would fit at Yankee Stadium, here's a hint," Rymer added. "Out of his 268 home runs, 170 have been as a left-handed hitter to right field." That sounds good to us, and we're sure the Yankees would concur if given the opportunity.
