Day 151

Fresh Start_151: Number 45, now serving
President Donald Trump is getting sworn into office today at Noon EST, and it will have the country at each other’s throats for the 1st time since Election Day. As I’ve said multiple times; I will not tell you how to feel about this election. If your guy won, be happy and hopeful on what he has promised to do. If your girl didn’t win, don’t be that scared because we are still a democracy. If you want to protest, well that is your right and nobody can tell you not too. There have been protestors at every presidential election in my recent memory.

And another thing is, don’t lose great friendships over this election. Every has the right to their opinion and their political party. Let the differences be that, and just go on with your friendship. No president can take that friendship away. I personally am optimistic that President Trump will be a decent president. I hope that he will better president than his republican predecessor. I have hope that he will make this country people look at in 4 years and be proud of. I’m also tired of people on either side pulling to the extremes in conversations. As on Noon EST Donald Trump will be the president and we need to continue to be the incredible Americans that we have been for the past 8 years and all the years before that.

One last note, there is a date that you need to keep in mind. That date is Tuesday November 6th 2018, or the Midterm Election. That is a day were we can decide who has control in the House, 25 seats in the senate, and when the Supreme Court Judges get voted on. The Midterm election is where you decide if you want to continue to ride the “Trump Train” or slam the door on and give the power to the Democratic party. If you are an Independent, which way do you swing then, verses which way you swung on Election day. Anyway, as President Barack Obama goes to bed tonight, it will be his last as the President of the United States. So, to you President Obama thank you for a good 8 years in office, thank you for the milestones that you have set while you were in office, and thank you for being better than the President who came before you. Whichever side of the isle you are on, have a good election day, and also hope and pray that the President Elect will do a great job in office.

The 2023 Offseason is Brian Cashman's Biggest Test Yet

Image
   Now that the World Series is over five days from now the offseason begins. With that in mind, this is the biggest offseason that Brian Cashman will have in his 25-year tenure as Yankee General Manager. For the first time since 2016 the Bronx Bombers watched the postseason from their couches, and they earned that right. Amazingly, this team finished over .500, although not that far above that mark. This iteration of the Bronx Bombers finish with the same record as that 2016 team—but the feeling with this squad feels different. Following the 2016 season, there was hope of the two power bats that would usher in the “Baby Bombers,” and in that offseason, the farm system was rated in the Top 10 in all of baseball. There was almost certainty that Brian Cashman would put a championship team around Aaron Judge, Gary Sanchez, Greg Bird, and Luis Severino that would be a title contender for years to come. There was hope. And that hope almost turned into reality. Almost. But, that was then

The Question going into the Trade Deadline for the New York Yankees

  There is a crossroads in the Bronx in between River and 161 st Street right now. As New York Yankee Manager Aaron Boone likes to put it “[the season] is right in front of them.” The second half of the season is for the taking. As we move into the dog days of summer the Bronx Bombers are nine games out of the division and now a game and a half out of the AL Wild Card race following a disappointing first series in Colorado. With that, the historic starting Tampa Bay Rays have cooled off, going 3-7 before the break while showing signs of being mortal. Baltimore, who has been keeping pace with Tampa, didn’t look like a Superpower when they split against the Yankees two series before the break. The AL East is still a Spartan Training Facility with every team above .500, the Orioles holding the first Wild Card spot, and the “struggling” Boston Red Sox tied the Yankees in the Wild Card race. And unlike Robin Williams in Mrs. Doubtfire, help is not on the way. Aaron Judge’s toe is still a m

The Answer for the Mets

  As Yogi Berra would say “it’s déjà vu all over again.” Buck Showalter is an all too familiar place. The 67-year-old manager has taken a time machine back to 2012. No, he is not managing in Baltimore anymore, however that’s what it feels like the end of Showalter’s Oriole tenure in Queens right now. The Mets simply can’t get out of their own way. With Pete Alonso likely headed to the Injured List, the Mets scored 10 runs last night in Atlanta. 10 runs on the heels of back-to-back gut-wrenching losses at the hands of the team that has foiled the Mets for the better part of almost three decades, the Atlanta Braves. 10 runs with their hired ace, Justin Verlander, who was looking to put together good starts consecutively for the first time all season. The Mets looked like they were about to exercise some demons in Atlanta last night, and then, the other shoe dropped. It wasn’t good enough. Again. Last night, I wrote that the Mets season was on the line with Verlander toeing the slab. Well
