New York Yankees fans are reportedly depressed despite a roster that is nearly identical to the team that led the majors in home runs (274) and runs (849) last year.
This pessimism stems from the franchise's 25-year World Series drought and recent playoff failures, such as the ALDS loss to Toronto. Experts argue the anger is misplaced, noting GM Brian Cashman’s 33 consecutive winning seasons and dismissing the notion that a rebuild is needed.
