Be nice to see Tank throw a good one, get some offense, take a series from a first place team to go into the break. Probably be he closest thing to a World Series this team will see in 2016!
 
It's impossible to figure this group out. Pouring it on with an 8-1 lead and still threatening in the fifth.
 
Wow 11-1. Are they trying to suck us back in??? :lol:
 
Gregorious just got intentionally drilled (imo).
I guess the mighty Indians are being humiliated....they're upset, how dare the Yankees!
Lmao, they'll always be the "Cleveland Indians".

Like I mentioned they're hard to figure out. Going to take three of four in Cleveland before the break to get back to .500.
 
WTF is going on here? just leave him out there Joe.
 
Tank has been extremely lucky today escaping one jam after the other. His game today smells like dead fish.

Not so fast Vic, 11-7 now. Tanaka crapping the bed.

Didi should've ended the inning but Tanaka clearly flat as a pancake today. Really no excuse after being given a 11-1 lead.

New ballgame, two run HR cuts Yankee lead to 11-7.
A hanging meatball from Tanaka.
Should've been out of the inning at 11-3, costly two run throwing E by Didi with two out....then the two run jack.
 
N is for Nate, N is for nervous, !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Well nice to enter the break on a high note. Three with Boston and four with Baltimore right out of the break will tell the story.
 
So the Yankees take 3/4 from the first place Central Team. Hit some pretty good pitching well, too bad they did soo poorly against teams they should have beat. Now comes the 2nd half, and if they Yankees start selling the remainder of the year would be transition & adjustment. The only thing I'd hope for is that they can scramble some eggs for Toronto, Crack Town & of course the Bostons.
 
Meh....44-44. cashman needs to be part of the firewall, then I dust off the pompoms.

...Mess, I know all Yankees fans here, but please tell me that you're not being taken in again by this mirage.

..they were 22-22 on May 24th...and they've played .500 ball since then too.

...Tote, if they'd fire Cashman at the break I would post nothing but positive comments for the rest of this season because at least it would tell me that ownership finally realized what the crux of the problem was, and that there is hope for the near future.
 
Finally we are home from our trip to Yankees' minor league games. Yankees lose
to Twins AAA 3-2. Severino pitched a strong game but tired in the 7th inning when he
surrendered Twins' 3 runs. Shame about Judge. He was the talk of many fans at the park.
I hope it isn't serious. The injury actually occurred when diving for a ball hit to the OF.
Although he was the losing pitcher today, Severino's pitching performance was the best
of any of the four games. Yes, there is hope down on the farm. Now, let's hope
Mr. Cashman decides not to trade these kids for 'over-the-hill' players.......
to substantiate his ridiculous view that this team is playoff bound!
 
Interesting to note that even though Yankees took 3 out 4 from the Indians, Yankee pitching
is very susceptible in giving up many runs. In this four game series Yankees were out scored 27 to 25
runs. Sit tight folks, this is going to be a bumpy ride...........
 
Game 4 really exposed this team, not that it hasn't been done before. Offense goes out, has a good day, Starter, usually dependable, has a bad day. Sub-standard pitching, plus infield error opposition comes back from 11-1 deficit to being back in the ball game. Bull Pen is trashed, so in comes recently demoted starter, yep he finished the job but somewhat shaky. So right on a bumpy ride coming but if good changes are made heading to season conclusion fine.

Oh I'd still find something to occasionally gripe about, lol!

Yanks' 2nd half schedule starts with 23 games vs Bos, Balt, SF, Hous, Mets, Cleve with three games @ TB mixed in.

After that they still have 10 games left with Toronto who have owned the Yanks since last August.
Just for good measure the last 10 games of the season:
four @ Toronto, three each with Boston and Baltimore.

Yanks and management just might get what they deserve....
I can hardly wait to see how it plays out.
 
...lol...the Yanx have barely been a .500 for the last 2 seasons for a reason.

_______________

Yeah, as their 4.39 ERA indicated before this series began.
Yanks left Cleveland and the first half with a 4.45, which is tenth best in the league.

At the all star break:

Baltimore is #7 ERA 4.35
SP #14 at 5.15, but it's clear how they're doing it.
They score runs 4th best and may have the best bullpen with 3.12 ERA and 74% success rate save opportunities. (K.C. 2.92/ 68%).
Baltimore also takes care of business vs "bad" teams- .777 win%...they're exactly .500 vs teams over .500.


Boston #9 with 4.43, (bullpen #8 with 3.88)
Their offense is tremendous, they've outscored the second closest team by 43 runs while playing 4 less games!

Toronto surprising 2nd in the league 3.76 ERA,
...bullpen #10 with 4.05 and only 66% save success rate.
They're also 2nd in scoring runs.
If they had Andrew Miller and/or Chapman.....yeesh.

Excuse me. I'm not sure if you're aiming your little cheesy gutless insult at me..so to clear things up for the board, and others who may be browsing here, I'll gladly respond.
Now, what kind of bullshit are you trying to spread?
Bringing last season into the mix?
.....last year I was closer and more accurate with my expectations and win total "prediction" for this team than you were.
I was on the higher end with my "approx 90 wins" the team finished with 87.
Others' predictions last year were expecting something closer to a .500 ball club...you know, the "82-85" crew....with one or two actually saying ".500".

And I also remember you were the only one who took issue with my use of and the definition of "approx"....lol, yep, it was funny.
You made a lame attempt at saying "approx 90 wins" meant 90,91,92 wins and I had to clear the stench away by saying "approx" meant just what it means....in this case, close to 90, give or take a win here or there... 89-91 would do it.

Here, for future reference so you don't get confused:
"approximately"

adjective
1.
near or approaching a certain state, condition, goal, orstandard.
2.
nearly exact; not perfectly accurate or correct:
The approximate time was 10 o'clock.



And before this season, I DID also say "approx 90 wins".
Looks like they aren't going to win that amount....so this season when I criticize or point out their obvious mediocre play or hope for better things when they did show some life, you have a problem...lol, YOU are the one coming from both sides.....because you have an agenda.

Speaking of last year AND this year, I did give Cashman a pass LAST YEAR and said so....last year and this year.
It was based on the team having 87 wins which was good enough for 4th best in the league (four games better than previous year) and a WC berth with a chance for the A.L.D.S....no, they weren't very good, but they were kinda pretty good and certainly not (imo) "pathetic" as your buddy was quoted as saying they were.

There was NEVER a doubt about which side of the fence I was on as I clearly said more than once if the team doesn't improve upon last year's performance, Cashman should be dumped.
No problem....it's so easy when you're confident and comfortable in your own skin.
