CC better pitch his fat ass off. We need this game.

4th place 6 out best pitcher wet the bed last night. Sabathia has to wake up, smell the coffee, and reverse his record against TB. Yankees can ill afford series losses for the remainder of the year. Sure wish Jeter was coming back tonight instead of Monday, team just seems better when he is in the lineup.

 

[Majorball]

^^^^ I agree 5545, He holds them accountable. He symbolizes winning.

 

[Rick2583]

I like this kid Romine. Heads up base running. C'mon CC keep the lead.

 

[Majorball]

Romine smoked the ball his first at bat that resulted in a DP. He battled the next at bat for the walk. You can see his confidence growing every AB.

 

[Rick2583]

This is pure bullshit, 23m dollars for a 5 inning pitcher. If there is ANYWAY for the Yankees to get out from under this guys contract they should jump at it. Even if it means paying half his salary.

 

[Messiah717]

CC fails them yet again. You cannot give up a three spot with a 2-0 lead.

 

[Rick2583]

This is one pitcher who I'd love to see get pounded. His mound antics drive me nuts. & for god sakes Maddon tell this asshole to straighten out his cap.

 

[Messiah717]

Forget about it with this team. Huge series and both Kuroda and Sabathia don't get it done.

 

[Rick2583]

Just amazing, when they need to come up big.....they fail.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

BUFF flubs the dub once more, that gives him 7 losses at Tropicana. Once Arod gets his suspension the next move the Yankees need to make is to try and move Lord Lard Ass if possible. Need to cite the offense as well for finding a 3-2 lead insurmountable.

 

[Messiah717]

Sabathia is not getting moved. Have to let that go. Not to mention the time to do it isn't when he's having the worst season of his career.

One hit from the 6th inning on is unacceptable.

 

[Rick2583]

One hit from the 6th inning on is unacceptable.

I agree. It was a one run lead. The fact that the offense couldn't over come that is just a joke.

 

[Messiah717]

The offense unfortunately went back to reality.
