Inside The Mind Of D. Scott

It goes without saying that Aaron Boone will not lead this team to a World Series Title. But it's deeper than Aaron Boone. Changes need to be made in the front office. Cashman needs to go. Boone needs to go. Honestly, I think Hank and Hal need to go as well. The franchise seems to be ok with being a "middle of the pack" type of team. The urgency that we saw earlier this season is gone. The accountability is gone. The team is back t...

First and foremost, Happy Father's Day to all the dads!!

Let's talk some Yankees baseball shall we? Vople is doing his job, Will Warren is still struggling, but the team is finding ways to continue to win (most of the time).

I do address the Pride hat/uniform "issue" that came about this past week. Speaking as a Christian, I think you'll be surprised by how I feel about the whole thing. Yes, it's just my opinion but it's my podcast s...

Whether he does it on purpose or not, Aaron Boone literally talks about his team like we aren't able to watch every single game. I don't think he can help himself at this point. Let's talk about his obsession with Anthony Volpe. Let's talk about Jazz not being able to challenge balls and strikes anymore.

Is it all bad? Nope! Let's talk about how good Cam was against Toronto. How good Goldy has been for us this year. How good Belling...

Let's talk about Aaron Judge's injury. Let's talk about the medical staff that The Yankees have. Let's talk about playing hurt. Let's talk about how back Austin Wells is. Let's talk about Anthony Volpe reverting back to his old ways. Let's talk about how this team has gone right back to who they've been since Aaron Boone became manager.

They refuse to make adjustments. They're back to playing comfortable baseball. Is the lack of ur...

Coming into this podcast after watching The Yankees finally get a win against Tampa, my emotions were running high. Aaron Judge gets the job done in the bottom of the 9th with a 2 run walk-off homer was amazing.

That being said, the win doesn't negate the fact that the offense has been dormant for well over a week. The approach that the team has at the plate has been horrific. They've gotten away from doing the little things on offe...

Why that title for this episode? I totally understand why Yankees fans get in a panic when the team plays poorly, we're all traumatized from seasons past. But what we've seen from this team and the organization in 2026 appears to be a totally different mindset. Look at the title of last weeks episode. They're moving different.

So let's talk about the past week and what's been happening in The Yankees Universe, shall we? Fried is on ...

This week, I'm dedicating the show to Matt Hallock. Why you ask? Listen to the episode and you'll understand.

Let's talk about what the 2026 Yankees are doing different than they have in past seasons. Making moves right away. Sending guys down, calling guys up, not riding with a guy due to past service....stuff like that. There is a different sense of urgency this year and I'm here for it! I talk more about that in the episode.

Let's...

Another week of Yankees baseball is in the book and we're here to talk about it!

The starting pitching is the focus of this episode, and with good reason. Our starters have all been doing their jobs and keeping the Yanks in every single game. Even in the games that we lose, our starters are able to keep it close. The Yankees have a chance to win every game because of what our starters are doing!

I get into some Ben Rice talk as well ...

Watching The Yankees play this past week has been very enjoyable! Coming off a sweep of The Royals and The Red Sox and taking the 1st two against Houston, the team has been on a serious roll!

Let's talk about all the great things that we saw this past week and show some well deserved love to the team that we all love to watch!

The Yankees series against The Angels was a tough one, entertaining, but tough to watch. Yes we were able to split the series but what we saw brought to light was how ineffective our bullpen can be. The series really brought to the forefront how uncertain our middle and late inning guys really are on the mound.

Let's talk about that, let's talk about Ryan McMahon finally getting his 1st XBH of the season (a game winning 2 run HR) an...

Almost on cue the Yankees have decided to do exactly what I had hoped they wouldn't and that's go completely cold at the plate. So what happened? Why are they struggling to score runs? Why are they struggling to put hit the ball hard? Why are they ALL swinging like they want to hit the ball through the Moon?

Let's talk about the offensive struggles. Let's talk about the IBC. Let's talk about our pitching. Let's talk about all of it.

...

We are only 8 games in for the 2026 Regular Season but The Yankees are looking like the team we've wanted them to be all along. They griding at the plate, they're not relying on the long ball, starting pitching seems to be living up to it's reputation. Are there still some things that need work? Yes, but overall they look fantastic. They're beating teams they should.

Let's talk about all the good stuff that's going on. Let's talk ab...

Baseball is back and we have lots of great stuff to talk about on this episode. Yankees coming off a sweep of San Fran is a great way to start the year. Let's talk about all the great stuff that we've seen so far. Let's talk about the foolishness that we all heard about Aaron Judge after the 1st game. Let's talk about the "talking heads" in the sports talk world.

Let's also sing the praises of the amazing gentlemen that are going to...

What are my thoughts about The Yankees and their Spring Training so far? Let's talk about that. We'll get into Spencer Jones being optioned to AAA, a post that I saw on X about Tatis Jr. and the WBC as well.

Plus a lot of other Spring Training stuff that I think looks good as we inch closer to the 2026 season getting started soon.

Let's chat about why I'm sore, the progress we've made with wedding planning, the W.B.C. and of course The NY Yankees on this episode.

Judge is looking like he's ready to go for not only the W.B.C. but also the regular season.

Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy this weeks show.

It would seem that the NY Yankees have a different approach at the plate so far and I like it. They're not all trying to hit the ball out of the ball park, they're putting the ball in play and being very selective at the plate (at least most of them). Let's chat about that and some of the other positives that I've seen in Spring Training so far.

Spring Training games have officially started and I couldn't be happier about that. The Yankees started a little shaky in their 1st game but turned it on huge in their 2nd game. Let's talk about that shall we? I'll also get into the comments that Aaron Judge made about the off-season, Ryan McMahon getting reps at SS and Jazz Chisolm says he's going to be in the 50/50 club this year.

I'll give my thoughts on all of that in this episo...
