The Texas Rangers are proudly progressing towards achieving their long-desired dream. They have flipped the page this season with the right players on their side. While their winning endeavor is progressing, they have been unconsciously pointing out the biggest blunders of another team, the New York Yankees. The Yankees could have had a different season if they hadn’t let go of some of their biggest opportunities to the Rangers.

Corey Seager has caught special attention with his outstanding performance, even among the talented Rangers players this season. With his impressive display throughout the postseason, the Rangers shortstop has brought himself to the limelight. This is making the Yankees fans furious about the worst free agency bid of Brian Cashman.

The management of a team plays a vital role in their improvement and downfall. While players try their best in the field, the managers and GMs also must have enough insight to see what’s coming. Unfortunately, the Yankees’ GM failed miserably in that department. During 2022, Seager was a free agent, and the Bronx Bombers were a potent contender to sign him. But the GM took a different route and signed Josh Donaldson. Everyone knows how that ended.

Proving Cashman’s thoughts wrong, Donaldson spectacularly failed in the 2022 season and was ultimately released by the Yankees in 2023. However, it was too late to get Seager back. The shortstop had already signed a 10-year, $325,000,000 contract with the Rangers. The 29-year-old shortstop is having a successful time with the team, taking them to the World Series. Unlike the Bronx Bombers, who didn’t make the playoffs for the first time since 2016.

After his recent success on Friday night, Yankees fans took things to social media to mock Cashman once again. Since he went for Donaldson instead of Seager, fans were frustrated at yet another poor roster decision. But it was the last straw when they saw the Rangers shortstop progressing successfully with the team and started their final trial with a 1-0 lead. In World Series Game 1, he scored a two-run homer to lead his team to a 6-5 victory.

Furious at the man who cost them a good player, Yankees Nation has been pointing out Donaldson’s career strikeouts to mock Cashman.

Bronx Fans Cannot Stand The GM

The Texas Rangers are advancing toward the trophy, which is frustrating Yankees fans, who believe it could have been their team if they hadn’t made mistakes. After Bryce Harper, one of the biggest mistakes Cashman made was with Seager and fans are letting him know exactly how they feel.

They expressed their anger through mockery.

Some question the job of Cashman as a GM.

Fans even questioned the team management for these blunders.

Some were happy to finally be rid of Donaldson.

The anger of the Bronx Bombers’ fans is justified considering the team’s 2023 devastating season and the players they didn’t sign taking their teams to the World Series. Let’s hope that the Yanks won’t mess things up this free agency and come back stronger in 2024.
