Boone will never be a sharp in game strategist. Not his skill set. He makes some poor decisions. But he gets the players to play hard, buy into a team concept, keeps things on an even keel, etc. Cashman makes some great moves and some bad moves. More good than bad. But he has the team in the playoffs every year. People thinking Hal would fire Cashman and Boone after they won the AL East this year, won 99 games, won their ALDS series are not being realistic. They are not going anywhere based on this year. This is Hal not George running the ship. Yes the roster construction was flawed and has been flawed for several years. But the injuries to DJ and Benintendi and Carpenter really hurt and they would have been far more competitive with Houston if those 3 were not injured and on top of their games. To win in the playoffs your big stars/best players have to be productive and do the job. This year only Bader (emerging star) and Rizzo produced, Stanton did vs Cleveland but not against Houston. Judge did nothing vs Houston (.063 with one single in 4 games). Gleyber, Donaldson did nothing too. Look back at the championship Yankee teams. Their big stars, Jeter, O'Neil, Matsui, Reggie, Mantle, Berra, DiMaggio, etc. all produced and they were under great pressure. Judge has to for the team to win. He's too good a player not to and he will in the future. Yes, I believe he stays with the Yankees.
