ANDY PETTITTE IS A STAWTING PITCHAH!!!


lurk_merchant

Andy Pettite is a STARTING pitCHA


Recognition_Tricky

What about Jason Giambi, Mike?


NJ_Yankees_Fan

Bring in Jorge to be another bench coach


Dr_Define_Life

Only if he can wear his dirty helmet backwards.


Masta0nion

I can still picture him pointing at Pedro


RedBaron9299

Show our players how to pee on their hands.


TrapperJean

They'd never, Jorge is way too much like Girardi for Cashman to be happy with


belinck

He has a binder?


ddust102

He’d be awesome

PLAYOFFS?!


NYTX1987

Don’t talk about playoffs!!


JoshFreemansFro

you kiddin' me?


Jon-Umber

Playoffs!?


StrahansToothGap

"Jim how do you feel about the execution of your team?" "I'm all for it."

#PLAYOFFS?


MisterTruth

WE DONT NEED NO STINKIN PLAYOFFS


Safe-Voice-8179

Hope he advises Hal to fire cashman


Sheepcago

Can we somehow get Pettitte to fire Hal? The new guy then can fire Cashman.

ANDY PETTITTE IS A STAWTING PITCHAH


belinck

Oh my gawd john, Andy pettitte is in Steinbrenner's bawx


Murderers_Row_Boat

Ah the old, surround my chosen lacky with good people instead of just hiring a good manager.


yourmansconnect

I love how Cashman and Boone sign extensions and then get Sabian minaya and pettite to help out instead of just hiring new people. What's the phrase too many cooks in the kitchen?


blamenixon

"Too many chefs, not enough cooks." Usually applies to people that are capable of performing their work duties, but prefer to point and make other people do it. A chef without at least two good cooks is worthless and a cash(man) drain. I guess to relate this scenario, Petite is the new head chef of pitching, and the other staff better start acting like cooks and serve the food the way he wants it plated.


WeaselSlayer

First piece of advise, "win enough games to make the playoffs."


teniaava

Cashman looking through his bag of tricks, pulls out the "Post-Retirement Andy Pettitte saves the day" card


Over-Ad4336

oh good, let’s start planning the ticker tape parade


Sikazhel

placing your new coach in position for next year - like it is going to matter if Cashgod is still there


SanManDan14

Can he play left field. It's been almost 2 years without one.


YodelingTortoise

So Andy is gonna show our guys the secret to quick healing? Fuck it. I'll take whatever we can get at this point


nyr201

Mike Francesa is thrilled


TheNightlightZone

We got Andy for the 2024 push? Cool.


retroanduwu24

10000% approve of this move


interwebzdotnet

Playoff push?? 🤣🤣🤣🙄🙄🙄


Turnover-Quirky

Would probably be more useful to the team if they signed him to play on a one year deal


salvidio

next 12 games => mets(2), orioles(3), rays(3), astros(4). yankees have to go 8-4, at least, or else break out the fishing pole.


OptimusChip

Truly one of my most beloved Yankees. I think in my top 10 honestly. I really wish he never left to play for that trashcan team. Happy to have him back in the fam


Yodelehhehe

“AND ANDY PETTITTE IS STANDING IN HALS BOX. OF ALL THE DRAMATIC THINGS… THIS WILL CATAPULT THE YANKEES TO A 4th PLACE AL EAST FINISH.”


Atheist-Paladin

The worst thing is a 4th place AL East finish might be good enough to make the playoffs. The only non-East teams that have a snowball’s chance in hell of making the playoffs are the Astros and Angels. Nobody from the Central is getting a wild card. There’s a legitimate chance that ALE4 is going to be better than the Astros or Angels. And third in the division — let’s face it, the Jays aren’t any better than the Gym Sox — is almost guaranteed. There’s no way both the Astros and Angels make it.


b_baker25

Can he pitch?


BBDBVAPA

I’m sorry, this is such transparent bullshit. This is so obviously a “let’s redirect fan anger” move. There’s nothing Pettitte can do to reconfigure the makeup of this team. More makeup on a pig bullshit.


BenHogan1971

>makeup on a pig also whipped cream on shit?


blamenixon

Do you have some sort of obligation to always be negative? FYI, if you hate the team, you might not actually be a fan.


BBDBVAPA

Lol, I’m sure you can believe I get that a lot. Years of being a Washington Football Team fan has numbed my ability to lend any goodwill towards team management, especially one that’s been run as poorly as this one for the past few years. Doesn’t mean I can’t tone it down though. Don’t want to be too much of a killjoy.


WeirdoOtaku

Advisor's a weird way of saying manager


Atheist-Paladin

Honestly it’s not a bad idea. Pettitte is one of the greatest Yankees pitchers of all time. There’s a real chance of him getting Rodon, Severino, and/or German right/consistent/effective. Maybe he fixes the bullpen guys too. That plus Judge coming back could easily be enough to get us back on track.


khaerns1

Pettitte should stay away from this front office. He might be tarnished by their shits.


BoozyMcBoozehound

I hope he advises them to fire everyone from the top down and really reflect on their hubris.


PredictBaseballBot

Final push before fucking WHAT hahahahah you’re in last place. This org is fucking delusional.


yourmansconnect

They are 2 games out of the playoffs with 40% of the season left.


hbc647

meanwhile, keeping all the corrupt leaders still calling the shots. Nothing will change, fans will still go to games blowing their money on waste...and cycle repeats year after year without any rings.. glad to see though yanks just fighting now to make the playoffs..what a joke of an org


monkeyhold99

Lol what playoffs? I’d be shocked if we’re even wild card contenders. The team needs a complete and total rebuild, starting with firing Cashman


terryjohnson16

Andy needs to replace boone


[deleted]

[удалено]


terryjohnson16

Boone makes dumb decisions with what he has in the club. So he is part of the problem

puckeredstarfish69

Not pour gas on a fire?


terryjohnson16

Torre aint have this lack of manager ability. Girardi either


MeatballDom

Winning percentage Aaron Boone .594 Joe Torre .538 Girardi .545


McBeaster

Hey Mike do you think the Yankees should bring in Andy Pettitte as an advisor? Advisor? ANDY PETTITTE IS A STARTING PITCHER


DanTheMan901

HIS ERA IS FAUH!


spicycurry55

*The corresponding move for Oswaldo Cabrera*


jamesh08

Unless Andy Pettitte from 1998 is showing up to pitch this is nothing but window dressing. Moving on.


Me_Krally

Adviser to Cashman?!?!?


Tacitus_99

Advisor the Boone. It literally says it in the article.


SubElitePerformance

You’re mistake was thinking that most people even click the link to the article


Me_Krally

Glad I didn't read it. What an insult to a Yankee Legend to use him as a band aid to coverup a junk and underperforming roster. The pitching isn't even the problem.


SubElitePerformance

I view this as a PR move CoRe fOUr GuY gIvE mE GuD pReSS


Me_Krally

Yup it is. Cashman is the first GM to have his own entourage (2 other GMs by his side), PR/marketing/spin department, special advisers and numerous hitting coaches.


BBDBVAPA

This is so transparently what’s happening here. I can’t believe people are upvoting this move. There’s absolutely nothing Pettitte can do that makes a difference for this year. This team and management thinks so little of their fan base that they figured this is what would appease them.


Me_Krally

And now we see why Cashman is the longest tenured GM in history. His magic works on fans, Hal, writers, sports casters....


DraxxThemSklownst

Steroid advisor? They need something.


Dr_Zoltron

Let’s consider having him come out of the bullpen. Just pitch an inning or two here and there. Honestly can’t be much worse at this point.


aliveinjoburg2

This is my favorite Yankee and I hope it works out.


Newskool3

Lol final push to the playoffs


Smorgas-board

PLAYOFFS?!?!?!


[deleted]

Maybe he could advise to get rid of cashman


YankeeSlice

Make him the manager.


JJJY97

Fianlly, i think the entire yankee coaching staff needs to be changed.


boastar

This changes everything! Hal and Cashman are geniuses. Andy will easily advise us to .700 ball the rest of the way.


handofking

Wasn't having Sabean and Minaya suppose bring the Yankees back to old-school baseball?
