[Mattingly23NY]

Thank God He walked clean to L.A. Last thing the Yanx needed is/was McCarthy or- another player on the DL.........!!!

Los Angeles Dodgers Brandon McCarthy suffered an elbow injury against the San Diego Padres on Saturday night. He has a UCL tear and will miss the rest of the season.

McCarthy Out for Season With UCL Tear
Monday, April 27
According to manager Don Mattingly, McCarthy "is out for the year with a UCL tear," per the Dodgers on Twitter.

McCarthy admitted that Tommy John surgery is "likely," per Bill Shaikin of the Los Angeles Times.

Better the Bums lose 12M Then the Yankees losing the 6-7M they offered.

McCarthy wasn't having that good a season out here, 23.0 IP, 24 Hits, 9 HR's, a smoking hot 5.87 ERA.

Amen, I had mixed feelings when the Yanx acquired McCarthy, (he never showed any glimpse of being a capable body SP), while, the D'Backs SP's have sucked horribly the last 2 years, of course Corbin has NOT pitched since 2013, Stick a Fork in the entire Lot of D'Back Pitchers.........!!!

HEY'A RICK, I JUST HEARD ON THE WIRE, FRISCO IS TRADING MAD-BUM FOR PUIG, CRAWFORD, AND A RP, TO BE NAMED LATER......!!!

Never happened. But can you imagine Kershaw & Bumgarner of the same team?

I said all along I didn't want him resigned for a multiywar deal.... Sucks he's hurt, but...

I think the Yankees were in the neighborhood of 2 years between 12-15M. What the Dodgers gave him was just ridiculous.

 

[totus44]

Feel bad for the guy, he pitched his ass off for us. Can't credit Cashman for an inaction though, its not like he didn't make an offer.

Old news, I mentioned it in-
Yankees vs. Mets 4/25/15 4:05PM

Lmao..... He wanted four years from Cashman.....Cashman said bye bye...and now the LA LA Land Dodgers will be lucky if they get two mediocre years from him.

Score ONE for Cashman!
Bottom line➡ Cashman held his ground and knew enough not to give him more than two years and now the overrated Dodgers have to pay this guy for 4 years.
Lmao!

Ironic you say that, I was just thinking the same thing.......

Tho' Kershaw is off to a torrid pace. Indeed he doth have chinks in His Armor......

Weren't people heaping the dodgers with praise for the McCarthy deal? Am I imagining this?

I'm sure some were..........there's millions of Fans here, in the media(s) all who discuss such things. Praise tho' not on yer life......!

He did a helluva job for the Yanx, and should of been kept on a short leash as a newbie Free Agent, never given a "too big for his own good; hefty contract".

Now Giants Fans may of applauded if they picked up Brandon, could you be confusing the two locale fans types......?

There are far more examples of where he didn't.... CC getting resigned is tops on that list

Also on that list are Beltran, Drew, Tex for the length of the contract, and many many many other poor or bad decisions....

No, you're not imagining it. It's the anti-Cashman movement. Nobody will admit to it.

For the stupid kind of money the Dodgers signed him for the only thing I remember seeing here was relief that for once Cashman wasn't dumb enough to give him those years & monies.

 

[totus44]

Anti-Cashman movement? How about the "make Cashman accountable movement" or the "Can't pin this one on KLong"

 

[blgridesagain]

* "opportunist"

Speaking of opportunism..... Any thoughts on Granderson not hitting his first HR of the year until April 26 at Yankee Stadium?

Did you give credit to Kevin Long? (chuckle)

By the way......the Yankees must be on the phone daily with Kevin Long....his presence is sorely missed.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

Ok my bad. The deal always seemed funny to me but I remember LAs new front office getting pats on the back for it.

Remember when I said that sometimes its better to stay silent & have people just THINK you're an idiot then to open up your mouth & remove all doubt?
Well, you're doing it again......................................removing all doubt.

Ah, if your talking front office, sure those boys pat each other on the backs every chance they get.....

...who are you talking about?....I don't recall anyone heaping praise on the Dodgers.

Yeah, sure.

So, on the subject of batting coaches......is it Memorex or is it Ella?

Yankee offense SUCKED the past two years....Yanks chose to make a change in batting coaches....sometimes a new voice or better salesman is needed.

See ANY difference so far? Whatya got? Some more hogwash for me?


ONE EXAMPLE- Long was credited by many with "turning Grandy around".....
While most of us "idiots" (lol), knew his swing was tailored for Yankee Stadium and saw the ball well here... the geniuses (lol) tried to offset it by saying he also hits HRs on the road. What else could they say? Lmao


As we speak, he didn't hit his first HR of this year until his first visit to Yankee Stadium on April 26....and his BA is .212, OPS .626

This is what is I know as of NOW regarding Kevin Long , the Yankee offense LAST YEAR, the Yankee offense THE YEAR BEFORE, and the CURRENT Yankee offense:
It was the CORRECT move to replace Long.



Now tell me something intelligent. Your turn.
I know....it isn't easy when you constantly automatically choose to have a closed mind....kinda limits your options. Lol


Ever see the picture with the three monkeys....
One covering his eyes, the other his ears...and the other his mouth?

That's the feeling I'm getting with a couple of posters here....hilarious!
