Boomer: Yankees pickups already paying off, Juan Soto looking like 'really happy player'

After one weekend of play, Gio says the Yankees and Mets are on complete opposite sides of the excitement spectrum.

“They could not be in more different places,” Gio said. “The Yankee fan is jacked up, as they should be…and in Queens, it was lifeless.


“It’s about the worst start you could possibly have…that was as ugly as it could possibly get to open the season at Citi Field…I couldn’t ask for anything better if I were a Yankee fan…you couldn’t have asked for a better start.”

For the Yankees, the difference was Juan Soto, who ripped nine hits in 17 at-bats, was the hero in multiple games, and showed the kind of emotion that made Boomer hopeful for the future, and gave reason to praise the general manager.

“What you saw is a really, really happy player,” Boomer said. “The Berti pickup paid dividends this weekend. The Verdugo pickup paid dividends. The Soto pickup paid dividends. Brian Cashman may not suck after all (a sarcastic quip in response to the fans that call in to vent about the Yankees GM).”
