Joe Girardi

I went down the Google Gemini rabbit hole.

The reason why, and according to AI, The reason Pat Murphy slammed the Yankees is because he's been good friends with Joe Girardi for about 40 years.

Really?

So there's a deeper connection to this.

To run an NFL team in the greatest and biggest city in the world in New York, it is not for everybody.

Ask Joe Girardi.

Ask the boons of the world, Brian Cashman.

We go on and on, Tom Thibodeau.

Like, I think...

I think the frustration for like a Joe Girardi, for example, is, yeah, I got Ben Rice, I got Cody Bellinger, if Stanton was ever healthy, and I got Aaron Judge.

Those are my four guys, and then the guys below that have certain things that they need to do really well.

Like, Jazz, yeah, you got popped.

They're the best.

Now, why I'm calling is because they mentioned that Joe Girardi has been a friend of Pat Murphy's for about 40 years.

Yeah, I heard someone calling.

So who knows? Who knows what information was passed privately? And another point is if Jake Bowers wasn't there on the team, it would probably be less mentioned.

Yeah, so I think that was part of it.

But a couple things.

One, Joe Girardi was not part of the 2023 team that Jake Bowers was on, which was a bad team.

He was a failure, I

He was in Philly,

Gary Sanchez is one of the guys who fell apart because of the pressure from outside the building.

Everyone loves to talk and wax poetic about how Joe Girardi was fired or not retained because he was critical of Gary Sanchez.

And Gary Sanchez, did it work? Did Joe Girardi ever get the best out of Gary Sanchez? Did he improve as a catcher? And then once the fan base called him lazy and that whole thing began, he couldn't recover.

I think Aaron Hicks, a lot of his failures can be placed at the feet of pressures of being a New York Yankee.

Joey Gallo.

and can a Brian Cashman change his ways, uh, after being a GM for so long, I, you know, everyone says what the Yankees do in the playoffs doesn't work.

You know, Anthony Rizzo criticized that, uh, Joe Girardi's criticized that CC is criticized the, the culture of the team.

Um, you know, so what, what dynamics need to change? Do the Yankees need to focus on different things, different skillsets? Um, you know, I, I don't know if it's just as simple as that.

I think the Yankees tend to go for hitters that are streaky in ways.
