There is absolutely no reason for Girardi to have Headley in the lineup at this point. The guy is batting 140, is 2 for his last 27, has not driven in a run since the 3rd game of the season & has no extra base hits on the year. Why would you intentionally put an AUTOMATIC out in your lineup. Enough is enough.

 

[yankeesince59]

...the plan is in full bloom.

He should be sent to the minors. Absolutely anybody is better at this point. Just play Torreyes.

I agree Vic but Girardi never gives up on anybody.

 

[totus44]

I agree Vic but Girardi never gives up on anybody.

His job isn't to cover Cashmans ass due to a crappy roster....his job is to win games with the best players available.

 

[cagedlion]

If I have to hear once more time that the hitters will come around
since they are getting men on base......it's only a question of time.

Operative word here is time. Are we talking a few days, a couple
of weeks, next month (which BTW is tomorrow), or
sometime in the summer or next year! This "bump in the
road" may take a while. Geeeeeeeez.

 

[Rick2583]

If Headley is in the lineup tonight Ron (59) needs to cut Girardi a new asshole.

What about Arod???

 

[Rick2583]

You know things are pretty f'ked up when A-Rod is hitting 50 points higher than Headley & he's STILL hitting under 200.

so much for a quick start by both....

If this were the Kentucky Derby, both would be shot...

Will Headley lead the league in errors once again, (and hit .150)...? It's gonna' be a long climb...

 

[Rick2583]

Headley = Steven Drew.

 

[Rick2583]

Tonight's lineup.....

CF - Ellsbury (247)
LF - Gardner (269)
RF - Beltran (250)
1B - Teixeira (233)
DH - A -Rod (194)
C - McCann (242)
2B - Castro (304)
SS - Gregorius (231)
3B - Headley (140)

MAJOR! shake up by Girardi, he flipped Gregorius & Headley in the lineup. DAMN!!! this must mean a win.

 

[totus44]

Matt's, song for today's game?

Boston - Don't look back

 

[Lillie]

The Yankees call up 3b Drew Bridges from the Riverdogs and was added to the 40 man roster as per Yankees.Com. Time for Headley to take a seat.

 

[Rick2583]

Girardi should sit his lame ass down anyway & let the kid Torreyes play.

...not sure what to make of that, Lil...I mean we already have Torreyes.


...who knows?

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Headley = Steven Drew.

I wonder where Drew got that Headley Mask...

Do you still have the Drew Fatheads on your wall's Ricks, never mind "I'm in" (your house for a look around) .... holy shit, to be continued...

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Matt's, song for today's game?

Boston - Don't look back

It's a new horizon and I'm awakin' now
Oh I see Our Yankees in a brand new way
The sun is shinin'
The clouds are breakin'
Cause I can't lose now, there's no game to play...!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

I'm watching the game today from Rick's House....

while he's in the kitchen, making a game feast, I couldn't help but snap some Pics of His Man Cave- as follows. Sacrilege and Blasphemy...

1 out of 5 isn't bad.... or is it...? Headley would die to have that (1/5) batting avg.

PS: those are Rick's balls on the night stand next to His bed....and I'm catching the next Aurora back to Caly, (before He returns from the Kitchen)....

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Just saw a short Wallace Matthews piece on ESPN. Apparently Joe G went off on the team after last nights loss. Glad to hear that, should be lighting these overpaid , underachieving loser looking pukes up like a match. Girardi deserves much better than this gutless bag of shit of a baseball team.

This Shit is funny Rob. I hope you and Ricky enjoy the game tonight.

Oh we will believe me, .... I was trying to escape, but Rick has remote locks on his doors and windows..... I feel like I'm in a horror movie...

What is wrong with him..... Is he asking for ransom???

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Your a Psychic, he just did ask for ransom, and put a gun to my head, made me try to swear an oath and allegiance to the Bosox, and SF Giants too....

 

[yankeesince59]

...holy crap.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Lame 1st!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Rick2583]

PSST Rob, hey Rob...........................................................You're in the wrong house.

 

[Rick2583]

Holy crap, 2nd inning & already Pineda is over 50 pitches. And the Yankees down 2-zip.
