Yankees fans call out Brian Cashman for siding with Aaron Judge-less underperforming offense

New York Yankees GM Brian Cashman feels that the team should do well without superstar Aaron Judge. The executive head of the franchise talked about the depth in the batting lineup and believes that is enough to win games without their captain. Aaron Judge has been sidelined since spraining his toe while making a play in right field during a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Despite not initially showing signs of discomfort, he later had to undergo scans, which revealed the injury. This is Judge's second stint on the Injury List (IL) this season, having previously missed games due to a thigh sprain he faced after a game in Minnesota last month. The Yankees' batting lineup has appeared subpar without Judge, as indicated by their record in the 22 games he has missed this season (9-13). In many of these losses, the pitching staff has received little support from the offense. However, Cashman went on to claim that the lineup has enough responsible hitters to bail the team out when required: “Yes. We have a lot of professional hitters, a lot of really good quality hitters that are capable of a lot of great things,&quot; the GM said.Fans were having none of it though, as they took to Twitter to express their displeasure with what Brian Cashman had to say. They feel that without Judge, the lineup is not capable of proving its mettle: Armand@Armand27@BryanHoch Is he watching the same team?@BryanHoch Is he watching the same team?Griffin@Spartian22@BryanHoch You sit on a throne of lies Cashman8@BryanHoch You sit on a throne of lies CashmanDeb Seymour@DebSeymour51@BryanHoch It’s not about replacing Judge.

There’s simply no excuse for a lineup full of all-stars to be struggling to produce offensively.6@BryanHoch On paper, nothing wrong with this lineup even without Judge.

Although that isn't the direction the Yanks want to go, as promised by Cashman: &quot;We’re not going to do any trading to replace Judge. Ultimately, we’ve just got to wait for him to get back. In the meantime, we’ve definitely got a lot of guys that are more than capable of doing great things for us. We just need that. We’re missing it right now, but it'll come around,&quot; Cashman added.The Yankees snapped a four-game losing streak against the Seattle Mariners but are still third in the AL East with a 40-33 record.
