According to a report in the New York Times, several Yankees were not pleased that Showalter pulled three of his best hitters from Sunday's game with the Angels in the third inning.
If Los Angeles had lost that game, the best-of-five series would have opened at Yankee Stadium. But the Angels earned home-field advantage for the ALDS with the 7-4 win over the Rangers.

If HFA was so important for ya, then why didn't you pitch Moose on Sunday?
No kidding. They are just a bunch of cry babies. Did you see Torre crying like a fat girl on prom night when they clinched on Saturday? What a little wimp.
Aww, poor wittle babies. Those mean, bad old Rangers!
If NY had won just one more game they wouldn't have to worry about it. Makes me glad the Rangers swept them in May setting up this delicious possibility to screw them today!
Snicker!
"It's surprising," Yankees manager Joe Torre said. "If his team was in the playoffs, I could understand it a little bit more. It's just surprising he pulled them so soon."Ohh I dunno Joe...
Given that Showalter BUILT the team that you inherited, maybe this was his only opportunity to give your boss the big FU.

or win some more games against Tampa Bay?
It might be Bucky's last chance to stick a thumb in the eye of his old employer. I'm wondering if he'll be back considering the Ranger's dismal season.
Bad shoulder. A Red Sox or Mets fan?
As a (Rad) Sox fan, I'd post my opinion of the Stienbrenner's steroid stuffed mercenaries, but the moderators would cut it.
Hey Yankees, you had control of your destiny, you blew it. Go Angels!!!
Sox fan here! Showalter has never done anything for me!
Still think Torre is a little sissy.
or why did they get swept by the Royals? Or WHY did they lose the season series to the Devil Rays?
The Yankees have no one to blame but themselves if they had to depend on a guy they fired to help them out.
Are you suggesting that there are still some players onthe Yankees doing something in a bathroom stall other than relieving themselves?
Royals, BlueJays, Rangers, Mariners, et al... angry with the Yankees for spending 18 billionzillion dollars more than them...to win the American League East Division.
I think it would be great next season when the Yankees come to Arlington if Ranger fans could bring hankies with them and wave them.
Torre was a sissy when he was in St. Louis and he's still a sissy.
Personally, I don't care who the Cardinals beat in the WS. ;-)
The Angels beat the Rangers 15 of 19 this year. What makes Torre think the Rangers had a prayer against the Angels even at full strength?
The Skanks have no chemistry - they are the Borg Team - assimilated by King George himself.
Alex Rodriguez wasn't complaining about the "code of honor" Friday night and Saturday when Ozzie Guillen was playing third-stringers against the Indians, who were locked in the wild-card race with the Red Sox.
