Yes, but does any other team have a bench as deep or as good as the Yankees do this year. If they didn't have someone to put in a spot, which they had many, then they went out and bought who they needed.
I'm not meaning this in a bad way. Just pointing out that Joe had the best hand money could buy. Some fans see that and need a scapegoat and Joe is it to them!
I hear people say that you can have the best superstar in the world, but if the manager or coach can't get it out of that superstar then it is his fault. Think about it...
Joe had so many superstars that he had a problem not playing them when they were stinking up the place. How can you bench a 25 million dollar superstar that is stinking up the place. Instead move him to the rear of the order?
