Kluber vs Germain

Can Yankees stop the bleeding? Rays energized for a 3 game sweep at Yankee Stadium.

 

[mrmel29]

Sounds like Holmes about to go on DL with back problems. At least marrinaccio should be back and Holmes has been bad for awhile now. Sounds like the rats deserting a sinking ship.

 

[mrmel29]

Yanks bring up marinnaccoo ( about friggin time, Florial (can’t be any worse than hicks and Cabrera ( haven’t seen him but gets Donaldson out of lineup) so a plus. Meanwhile, where the hell is Schmidt who has pitched well up here and Peraza?

 

[mrmel29]

Holmes to the dl, andujar and locastro sent down

[mrmel29]

Rays hitting German to take a 3-0 lead. With our offense these days that lead looks insurmountable

 

[mrmel29]

Yanks have the only prospect from the Dominican Republic in Florial who can’t hit. Mets brought up kid who was playing double A last week and he homers
In his first at bay. Where the hell is volpe

 

[cagedlion]

This is as bad as it looks. Yankee fans are not taking this bullshit of a team cheering. They are getting booed and
rightly so. They suck!

 

[cagedlion]

The most ardent fans see the writing on the wall. Yankees suck. Cashman sucks. Boone is totally lost. Adios.

I’m turning this shit off. Enough already.

 

[yankeesince59]

Said it before, but the best thing for this team going forward is for them to play so poorly down the stretch that they don't even make the PS...maybe that way, both Cashman and Boone are relieved of their duties.

As well as this team has played at times this year, I think we can agree that they are not "built for the PS".

 

[mrmel29]

Yankees miraculously score 2 runs to
Make it a close 3-2 game and the idiot Boone brings in the immortal Trevino who sucks and promptly puts a couple of runners on base.

 

[mrmel29]

4 straight balls to judge puts yanks down 1 and then the braindead unclutch fucking Torres swings at the first pitch and hits a weak ground ball double play. Fuck you torres you brainless POS!!!

He's a damn fool.

 

[mrmel29]

And why isn’t Rizzo behind Judge instead of the useless gleyber. Another crap lineup deployment by boobe

 

[mrmel29]

And that’s why Rizzo should be behind judge Boone u asshole

 

[mrmel29]

And the idiot Boone pinch hits the useless hicks for IKF. Yep, the inevitable strikeout. FIRE BOONE

He's a damn fool.

Don't know who whispered in Torres ear and convinced him that he was a HR hitter, but ever since he's been with the Yanx, he began swinging at every pitch as hard as he can. And his defense leaves a lot to be desired as well. I was really hoping he was gonna be traded this past off season and DJ would become the every day 2B man.

 

[yankeesince59]

Even though Chapman returned to his Tourettes style of pitching, Donaldson saves the Yanx ass with a GS in the bottom of the 1oth for a walk-off win.

 

[mrmel29]

Talk about your unlikely scenarios. And Chapman pitches like that and gets a win! BAHAHAHAHA

Chapman demonstrated for the thousandth time why he's not and never has been a Closer!
BaBoone showed for the thousandth time why he's actually a Little League Manager.
Donaldson got lucky, flashing past brilliance, of a one time MVP. Just don't count on him to do this every night or every week.

What a crazy game. I will always despise the Extra Innings new rule, placing a runner on 2nd.
Might as well turn the 10th inning into a frickin HR Derby, like a NHL Shootout!

As Michael (YankeeFan5545) used to say, "someone shoved a lucky horseshoe up his ass."
