Fire Aaron Boone. The Yankees will never win the World Series under Aaron Boone. Period.

I resent Ted Lasso for trying to make me forgive Nate. He did nothing to earn it. He’s a piece of shit and remains a piece of shit. We’re supposed to forgive him because Beard was forgiven once? Bullshit.

Fire. Aaron. Boone. This team will never win a championship with Boone at the helm. Period. Full stop. If Hal ever wants another ring, he needs to fire Boone. Probably Cash too at this point but absolutely unequivocally, Boone has to go.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

And I’m done. Time for some Ted Lasso.

Death, taxes, and Aaron Boone’s Yankees with atrocious defense in the playoffs.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

What the actual fuck?!?!

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Good call Boone. Pull your best pitcher because your infield can’t stop kicking the fucking ball around. Save him for the next round.

Anyone have the XBA on that Belli out?

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

I cannot with this team. Christ.

@craigcalcaterra.bsky.social Today’s CoC reminds me of the time I was learning about stars in elementary school. Me: Dad, did you know that the sun is gonna go supernova in 5 billion years? Dad: 5 million years??? Me: No, 5 Billion. Dad: <feigning relief> oh thank god! You had me so scared!

Awful awful awful send. Yikes.

In these trying times, we can all agree… fuck the Astros. Good riddance to bad trash can bangers.

Craig on a normal day: Sorry for the 4,500 word newsletter guys. I know that’s too long. Craig when he’s sick: Sorry for the 2,000 word newsletter guys. I know that’s too short. Ok, we now have a 2,500 word range in which Craig’s platonic ideal of a newsletter length resides.

Niners win. Yankees win. My 10yo’s little league team wins and he goes 2-3 with two doubles and a walk. Damn good sports night.

Hey, I actually got the Name That Yankee tonight.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

Any of my dodger fan friends know who this is? Got a signed ball at BP today but have no idea who he is and his number on the ball doesn’t line up with anyone that looks like him.

Godfuckingdammit. Just saw the Dolly Parton news. This one hurts. Literally stopped me in my tracks. What a legend. One of the few who challenged the conventional wisdom of never meeting your heroes.

Did… Rosario just get pinch run for after a 4 pitch walk in the bottom of the first…?

That’s what a full diaper looks like.

Republicans: lol, libtards are snowflakes because they don’t want kids to get shot in schools! Also republicans: he said something mean about me! I’m gonna sue him!!

The answer to this question should have been “someone who did NOT throw scalding water on my wife, hold a gun to her head, or break a two year olds collarbone. You must be the other guy.”

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

The Yankees are unwatchable right now.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

He (Ritchson) should still be Carl. I don’t care how old he is. I’ve pictured him as Carl the entire time.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

I’d rather not see the Yanks win a WS till 2029 than watch them kowtow to Trump’s ego like this. This is why the Yankees haven’t won a title under a Republican president since 1958.

If he retired today, is he a HOFer?

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

Possibly the best simile I’ve ever heard.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Like blowing leads of 12, 14, 16, and 29 points in the finals! Three of those games at home! A true trailblazer!

@craigcalcaterra.bsky.social You mentioned the Moon Landing, but not the Alvin Dark/Gaylord Perry anecdote! What kind of baseball themed newsletter is this, anyway??

It would be pretty cool if we had a single outfielder with an actual arm.

Lord I have seen what you have done for others…

Rooting for Ben Rice. Harper winning at home in 2018 was one of the most fun ballpark experiences I’ve ever had. It would be cool to see him win at home a second time.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 13/07/2026

Anyone else seeing Steve Sanders here?

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

Look, I don’t need Democrat politicians to hate republicans the way republicans hate them. But I do need them to act like they understand that republicans hate them so much that they would actually murder them if they were sure they could get away with it.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 12/07/2026

Is there a good reason why Beshear shouldn’t just call the special election right now? If McConnell really is alive, the GOP will produce proof, and that’ll be that. If he’s not, they can bitch and moan all they want, but it’s a pretty basic case of “ok, prove it.” Let them clutch pearls.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 11/07/2026

My 10yo and I were talking about Ruth’s called shot and my 6yo chimes in “oh, in the 1932 World Series against the Cubs off of ummmmmm oh! Charlie Root!”🤯 I couldn’t have told you who the pitcher was if my life depended on it.

David @djhoch.bsky.social · 09/07/2026

Lmao. The one time Kay *doesn’t* overreact to a fly ball it’s a homer.
