New York’s season-ending defeat to the Houston Astros means that, for the first time since the 1910s, they have gone a full calendar decade without so much as appearing in the World Series

In many respects, the New York Yankees just completed an extraordinary decade. Over the past 10 regular seasons, they won 921 games, more than any other team in baseball. They made the playoffs seven times—no other team played into October more often.

The 2010s were a success by every measure—that is, except for the only one their fans actually care about: winning the World Series.

It’s deceptive to say they haven’t awarded a $100 MM contract since 2014. Assuming Stanton’s contract is essentially the same thing.

Winning a pennant would be helpful.

Cashman should be fire! As CEO or COO he had fail, period!!

No titles in 2010 decade. A total failure.

SF Giants

GO SOX!!!

Choke artists

Paying billions for human who will make mistakes at any price. Being afraid someone else will get them first. Agreeing to those salaries. The definition of insanity is . . .

Everyone else be like

You're welcome. Love, Houston

Money can’t buy a wining culture or attitude.

Sucking at a $2 billion level aint easy. Just a reminder most of their best players are homegrown currently so where did the money go? Lmfao YankeesEliminationDay

Money can't buy love!

$2 billion to own the Twins could have been worse, well not for the Minnesota Twins lol

They’ll make up for it in the ‘20s for sure. Best decade for the yanks lol
