00:00Like, it's information, and you guys, and you're the president of it,
00:03so I'm glad you're screaming like a lunatic,
00:05you represent an irrational thought.
00:07It is irrational to be upset by using information to build a lineup.
00:11Am I right, Teak?
00:12No, I mean, you're not wrong, neither is Sean.
00:14Sean's frustrated because it doesn't feel like it used to,
00:17and because the Yankees haven't had ultimate success
00:20with all of these varied lineups,
00:22they've had tons of success because they're always in the postseason.
00:25Hell, two seasons ago, they were in the World Series.
00:27So the success is there.
00:30The ultimate success is not there,
00:32and as a result, you've got to blame something.
00:34How about you blame the fact that it's just freaking hard to win a championship?
00:39How about you blame the fact that the L.A. Dodgers
00:42are overspending anyone in the history of sports,
00:45and that's not even a hyperbole.
00:47Maybe it is for the Saudi teams, but you know what I mean.
00:49It feels like the Yankees are having shortcomings,
00:54but it's only because other teams have caught up to do what they used to do.
00:58And so this isn't about a lineup, per se.
01:01This isn't about Aaron Boone's management style or the over-analytics.
01:05This is just the reality of sport in 2026.
01:09It's hard to win, ultimately.
01:11Well, you bring up the Dodgers, so let me give you a piece of information.
01:15I know we don't like information.
01:17Sometimes we just need to be like,
01:18He's good, he's bad.
01:20The New York Yankees had 133 different lineups last year.
01:25Yes.
01:26The Dodgers had 140.
01:29Of course.
01:30Oh.
01:31Oh.
01:31But.
01:32I can't believe it.
01:33But in defense of the Yankees in this argument,
01:37the Dodgers also dealt with a ton of injuries.
01:39Yeah, and the Yankees had 5,000 different lead off hitters.
01:43And they moved Judge between two and three constantly.
01:46I mean, the Yankees,
01:48they also made a trade at the trade deadline
01:50that greatly affected their lineup
01:52when they acquired Ryan McMahon and even Jose Caballero.
01:55Right.
01:55So, I'm sorry I don't buy that.
01:58I don't.
