The Yankees dropped their third in a row on Sunday, the offense has scored two runs or less in seven of their last eight games, and are staring at an eight-game deficit in the AL East.
It was enough to break BT when discussing the underwhelming Bombers on Monday.
In an epic rant, BT went off on the state of the franchise, particularly ownership, Brian Cashman, and the still-struggling Aaron Hicks.
Here it is, uninterrupted and in all its glory:
“The Yankees run differential right now is plus two with a payroll of almost $300 million. Now, I can't, for my own health, for my own sanity, I can't scream about this every day the rest of the year. But it needs to be said again:
“The fact that Brian Cashman got a four-year extension is a joke. It is an absolute joke, and it's a reminder that Hal can't shine his dad's shoes. George Steinbrenner did a lot wrong, but I can tell you this: if George was on of the Yankees, he would be fired. Cashman, his son would be fired, and Aaron Boone would be fired. And I'm not even sure that it's Aaron Boone's fault. But the fact that there's no recourse.
“If I'm Hal today, I, I've got to at least throw the Yankee fans a bone and I gotta say, ‘Yo, Aaron Hicks, as much as I don't want to eat this money…’
“Me, personally, am tired of talking about Aaron freaking Hicks, who's still on this team for some maddening reason. You are not the New York Yankees when you trot that bum out on the field. Every day he plays, he stinks. There's no recourse. The Yankees aren't earning their at-bats. They're playing no matter what they do. It is an embarrassment, what the Yankees are embarrassing.”
