Game Thread Wednesday 6/15/16 Yankees @ Rockies 3:10PM

[Rick2583]

NOTE: the starting time.

RHP - Ivan Nova (5-3, 4.39 ERA)

VS.

RHP - Chad Bettes (4-5, 5.85 ERA)

Last night we got shut down early by a guy with an ERA near 9, let see how we do tonight against a guy with an ERA near 6.

The White Sox signed former Yankee outfielder Slade Heathcott to a minor league contract.

Lineups to follow By Lillie..........See you all in 2 weeks

Do not tell the Stewardress, you've got a big pistol- she may be a He, but if you do, in the same breath, ask for 2 drinks before take off...

and make sure you use the right bathroom, no not the one on the left...

don't knock on the Cabin doors, and say your selling Girl Scout Cookies, or want to only look around... If Kareem Jabbar is in the cockpit, get off immediately...

Ike Davis, what an acquisition, dumpster dumping again, Damn it Steinbrenner sell the team!!!!!!!!!

 

[Messiah717]

Injuries coupled with waiting out the big contracts have brought the Yankees to this point. Teams are not sitting out there just waiting to send the Yankees their superstars in exchange for their garbage. Complaining about it is futile.

 

[Lillie]

Mark Teixeira is aiming to return to the Yankees Active Roster next Friday as per Mark Feinsand.

...^^^ truly a lesson in futility,

and-

damn it, I'd love to see the Yanx sold to a Group, (with Jeter being a front man minority owner, majority if he could afford the loan)...
Futile as sunbathing in the Antartic in December....

Aw shit- The Yanx truly are snake bit at 1st base- Tex has looked like he is in need of a serious set of spectacles...

Saw that article myself, question is what happens with Ref, or for that matter even Davis. Unless a major miracle occurs I can't see Tex being a contributor. The best thing that could happen for the Yankees is if he were sidelined with insurance picking up the tab. I cannot feel sorry for one who'd be out and drawing the rest of his huge salary recuperating.

 

[Lillie]

Tex will probably get a Hang Nail his first game back.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Another dud with an ERA near 6 no hitting the Yankees thru three. Too bad the Yankees couldn't drop off Headley in Colorado and leave with Arenado. Wishful thinking!!!!!!!

 

[Lillie]

Nova crapping the bed already.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Me thinks Tex is the Pavano of the new millenium- may he get that hangnail, or ingrown nail, any scratch to sit him back down...or send him home for good....

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Girardi was pretty pissed off at Yates yesterday, wonder who he's going to put in there to save Novas dead ass???????????????

 

[Messiah717]

I didn't even know they were playing at 3PM. Just saw they're down 5-2.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Good old Ike, second consecutive rally he's killed this game.

I am not going to hold my breath on this guy's return.
Besides, his stay will again be brief.

It's like I have seen this movie before. Ugh!

 

[cagedlion]

I am waiting for McCann to hit the IR list with a .216 BA! Really, who's next?

The wheels have truly fallen off this wagon. How many times will this team
reach a .500 record and then go into reverse?

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Former Yankees Mark Reynolds and Boone Logan have rubbed the Yankees noses in pee this series,

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Way to ice the game there Aroldis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Good work boys, 4 in a row.

 

[Lillie]

I will not take responsibility for this loss, after all Ricky Two Teams started this Thread. The streak starts tomorrow.

 

[totus44]

To the basement with a bullet!

...GD Rick.

...lol

 

[Messiah717]

Get into sell mode.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^^^Really? Who would want these chumps?

I know. There's always somebody.

 

[yankeesince59]

...Chapman, Miller, Gardner, Beltran, Eovaldi should bring a good return.

 

[cagedlion]

The real question about this Yankee organization is............
Why does Cashman et.al. have yearly difficulty in developing home grown talent.
It is apparent they cannot develop talent unlike other organizations. When did
Yankees last develop a power hitting OF with a strong arm? a power hitting C?
a skilled 3B? a NO.1 or 2 starting pitcher who can go 7/8 or CG?

And yet this organization charges $2,675.00 for a premium box seat
for one game!

I would bet my life that Yankee management is rated in the lower
echelon of team's baseball developmental programs.
