Saturday August 30th game thread Yankees @ Bluejays 1:10PM

[Rick2583]

M. Pineda 3-2 1.95 ERA vs. D. Hutchison 8-11 4.68 ERA

Lets hope the Yankees can give Pineda some solid run support today.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Good pitching match , should be a tight ball game.

 

[Rick2583]

Today's lineup. And as I mentioned earlier, no Ellsbury. Lets just hope the injury doesn't keep him out to long.

Gardner
Jeter
Betran
Teixeira
McCann
Prado
Drew
Headley
Suzuki

 

[Rick2583]

Oh what a great start, a Bautista bomb & we're already down 2-0 after the 1st inning.

 

[Rick2583]

Pineda seems to have settled down but we're still looking for our first base runner as we head to the 4th.

 

[Rick2583]

Beltran hbp
Teixeira a rare hit (double)
McCann hbp

Bases loaded with 2 outs & Prado up. C'mon guys.

 

[Rick2583]

A fly ball to center for out #3. ANOTHER wasted scoring opportunity.

 

[Art51USAF]

It is brutal watching this overpaid under achieving pile of shit Cashman has accumulated.

 

[Rick2583]

Being shutout on one hit through 5 innings by a pitcher with an ERA near 5. Just unbelievable.

 

[yankeesince59]

It is brutal watching this overpaid under achieving pile of shit Cashman has accumulated.

...It's Ichiro's fault...he's killing this team.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Meanwhile down at Joes lunch counter the offense drinks coffee, smokes cigarettes discusses what they'll do when the game starts.

 

[Rick2583]

Now 1 hit through 6 against this guy. And btw: in case anyone is keeping score................

Over his last 21 games Gardner is hitting 167 going 12 for 75 over that span with no HRs & only 4 RBI seeing his aver dip from 286 to 266. Oh yeah & he's only had one SB on only one attempt. If we have any chance at all we better hope Ellsbury's injury doesn't keep him out to long.

 

[totus44]

Good to see the positive juju still flowing strong....

 

[yankeesince59]

...lol

 

[yankeesince59]

...maybe Kelley's fine job will fire the offense up.

...they may have dodged a huge bullet that inning...runners on 2nd & 3rd, nobody out and Toronto failed to score.

 

[yankeesince59]

...nice job, Gardner....stand there with the bat on you shoulder...have a seat.

 

[totus44]

This game has a 9th inning comeback / closer beat down vibe.

 

[yankeesince59]

...yeah, I get the same vibe.

...it's in the bag.

 

[Rick2583]

This team is just painful to watch sometimes. In the 9th we've got Beltran, Teixeira & McCann. For most teams 3,4 & 5 is the heart of the order, but this isn't most teams. Like I said.........painful.

[Rick2583]

Heart, fart, this was just pathetic.

One of my favorite movies.

 

[totus44]

Go watch Damn Yankees and post in the morning.

 

[Messiah717]

This team is done. The offense is a disgrace.

 

[Rick2583]

Go watch Damn Yankees and post in the morning.

Seen it many times & besides, if I watch it again will it change today's L into a W. And will it make us 3 games up instead 3 games down? I think not my delusional friend.

 

[yankeesince59]

...this team is just playing possum.

 

[Messiah717]

...this team is just playing possum.

Worst offensive team since those 90-91 squads.

 

[Rick2583]

...this team is just playing possum.

And apparently we're very good at it.

 

[cagedlion]

One, two skidoo......these players are not into playing baseball,
they are someplace else. They just do not know how to hit a baseball.....
sooooooooooooo overpaid athletes. DISgraceful. DISgusting. DISsatisfied.
DISheartening. DISillusioned. Just plain DIS.

 

[Art51USAF]

ROTF LMAO

 

[yankeesince59]

..."lolz".
