Championship Roster or Total Delusion? Moose Slams Hal Steinbrenner’s Logic!
Podcast: The Carton Show with Craig Carton & Chris McMoniglePublished On: Thu Dec 18 2025
Description: Filling in for BT and Sal, Marc "Moose" Malusis doesn't hold back as he dismantles Hal Steinbrenner’s recent claims that the Yankees had a "championship roster" derailed only by health and bad luck. Moose and callers argue that "underperformance" is a hollow term used to mask deep organizational flaws, from a lack of player development to a flawed construction of DH-heavy lineups. Using a powerful comparison to Mark Messier’s mental toughness, Malusis explains why analytics can’t measure the "clutch gene" or the ability to perform under the bright lights of New York. From slamming the team's obsession with batting average alternatives to exposing the embarrassment of the Jacob Trouba situation with the Rangers, Moose demands that New York owners stop acting like accountants and start acting like champions.
