Being in a tailspin, the stars are yet to be aligned for the New York Yankees. Most recently, the Bronx Bombers suffered a horrific loss against their fiercest rivals, the Boston Red Sox. Losing to the Red Sox is already tough enough, but it becomes even worse when the margin is as big as 15-5. To top it all off, hours before the Yanks suffered this horrific loss, an update on the Yanks worth a total of $88,000,000 got fans fuming to their core.

Notably, the fans are asking for some big changes in the general manager and manager department. Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone have been in the organization for far too long without any major victories to their name. And this hasn’t gone unnoticed by the fans indeed.?
