It seems the 2023 season was not for the 27 World Series winner, the New York Yankees. They have failed to perform badly. With eight straight losses, they have lost their grip on the wild card spot and most probably be out of the playoffs months before the ultimate end. The Yankees have spent the second-highest money this season. Their current shape has become a reason for rivals to troll the Aaron Judge-led side.

Although the criticism has synced with the Yankees fanbase and its disappointment with Brian Cashman. But the latest reference from Orioles fans regarding a team bus has forced the fans to defend their team a month before the planned “FIRE CASHMAN NIGHT.” What’s the entire case? Let’s find out.

Criticism Moves off the Field as New York Yankees Misery Continues

It has been a hard season for the Yanks. And the streak of poor results has only added to the negatives. Because of it, even the team bus the Yankees are facing the heat from rivals. It was visible in a Reddit post, where Orioles fans took a dig at the Yankees with a reference from the garbage truck.  They synced the garbage truck with the Yankees bus amidst their ongoing struggles. The post read, “Yankees ride their bus in shame after being swept.” It came after the Yankees lost a series to the Boston Red Sox, losing all three games.

But this was the rare support from the fans, who are themselves unhappy with the team. Tired of the front office, including the GM Brian Cashman, fans are planning a big night to show their displeasure and ask for his firing. It read, “Save the date! FIRE CASHMAN NIGHT Friday, September 22 vs. Arizona 7 pm Sections 202 – 204 Make your voice heard!”

This protest shows fans’ displeasure with the GM, who they have accused of making things worse by not acting when needed. It seems to be an extension of their anger because of trade failure and missing out on the players who are shining now.
