An angry caller couldn’t believe C-Mac wasn’t ripping Aaron Boone like many other Yankee fans, so C-Mac challenged him to find a recent beloved Yankee manager who lost his cool like so many fans want Boone to do amid the Yankees struggles.
“Go back and find me, if you can, with the Yankees you grew up with, when Joe Torre was getting all over the players,” C-Mac said. “He’s not the problem. The roster is the problem.
“I don’t love anything about him. He’s won. He’s won a lot of games.”
The caller interjected that “anybody could win with that roster,” which set C-Mac off, once again being faced with the hypocrisy of fans ripping Brian Cashman for putting together a flawed roster, then ripping Boone for not winning with said roster.
“Oh, OK, so the roster is good?” C-Mac said. “You like what Cashman has done?”
C-Mac puts far more blame on the construction of the Yankee roster, and the lack of production from proven veterans who have struggled badly this season. That shouldn’t be a direct indictment on Boone.
“You think Rizzo sucks because of the message?” C-Mac said. “It’s really not about Boone. It’s not about the manager.”
