I agree with you. The season started off with virtually no expectations for post-season play. The fact that they have done as well as they have is, in large part, due to Joe Girardi’s skills, decisions, and humanity to those players. I would hate to see Joe go, for any reason. It would not be a popular decision for him to be fired, IMHO.
Had the Boss still been alive, he would have fired him by now.
The Boss’ children are not like their father.
