Cashman and Boone get the loss they asked for.

Hicks should never play another game for the Yankees. But I have said that multiple times this season after multiple "nightmare" performances.

At some point, Boone's positivity becomes delusional and contradictory to what you saw with your own eyes. 

A great jump on the ball that he dropped. By the way, Hicks hadn't had a good jump on a ball for five years and the "cannon arm" reputation is built on a YouTube clip from twelve years ago.

Stanton had an impressive 12-pitch strikeout. A truly impressive feat during his current 5-for-45 slide.

Gleyber got his occasional home run, but I'm more impressed with the four balls he hit to the warning track this week.

Hicks, of course, is also one of the prime examples of Cashman stubbornness. The size of the contract is not a huge deal by today's standards. Hicks never lived up to it, but there was no particular need to rush him out the door 

Now he's a shell of a major league player. The idea that he's going to turn it around is absurd at this point. He's a symbol of Cashman's self-destructive tendency to throw good money after bad.
