Yankees draw the Angels hopefully they can stick it to Pretty Boy Wilson a second game in a row. They'd best do well, Tampa plays Boston tonight and as luck would have it a terrible Cleveland Team for 3 before the YS Series. Even Kluber can't hit a bull in the ass with a shovel this year.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

My bad Cleveland plays 4 against TB. We need to see Cleveland kick butt, and Texas to beat Baltimore but maybe not likely going on recent records.

 

[Rick2583]

Maybe Swisher could hit a few home runs......

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Swisher hasn't done very well lately in "Brohio". The Indains paid big bucks for not much, don't know which member of the Yankee Brain Trust made the decision to let him go but they sure hit the nail on the head.

Hoping Yankees can take 2 out of 3 from
the LA Angels of Anaheim(?). Indians are
having tough time scoring runs with mediocre
pitching....they'll be lucky to take 1 game
in TB series. Baltimore is clicking against
losing teams; maybe Texas will give them a fight.

 

[Rick2583]

Honestly I'm not really concerned right now on who beats the hell out of who, It's way to early in the season.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

I'd say that old Graig Nettles line about "Cy Young to Sayanora" would apply to Kluber.

 

[totus44]

Maybe Pujols misses another warm up throw and it sails into our dugout taking out Drew.

Got a hell of a laugh out of that remark, Yankees wouldn't be that lucky though!

59 made me say that.

A question - can the Yanks be in first place tomorrow?

 

[yankeesince59]

...yes, rumor has it that I'm some sort of puppet master Svengali.

Swisher hasn't done very well lately in "Brohio". The Indains paid big bucks for not much, don't know which member of the Yankee Brain Trust made the decision to let him go but they sure hit the nail on the head.

The Swisher signings IMO are more-so based on "Branding", the big bucks, for a kid who had some good games, and moments as a Yank, or as his time in Oakland, and how he earned his permanent roster spot, by playing, LF, CF, RF, 1st Base, DH.....
But- His Lifetime Post Season B'Avg is only .165, Drew Territory.......

The Epitome of Branding; where Players are no longer Players, rather now Commodities, Commercialized Assets, Entertainers; ???.........as Multi-Millions of $$$$$ are at stake. Bad decisions are made. Nick is lucky he's not been DFA, or a Minor Lg. AA ball, lifer....

 

[Rick2583]

Tonight's lineup posted in the OP.

GO YANKEES!!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Wake up out there, Tampa lost, Baltimore on the bottom of an 8-1 score.

 

[yankeesince59]

...well, that didn't take long.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Good old CC, consistent in the wrong direction.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Prince Albert's been on a terror this last week......

CC still looking like he should go into the Pen, as a Left handed specialists, his ERA vs lefties on the season: .195

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Great night out here for a game, let's play two..? let's not, or we'll be playing until the sun rises on the East Coast......

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Mierda del toro Beltran.

 

[totus44]

Gardner is just a fucking hitting machine.....

 

[totus44]

Did Brett inherit Jeter's little black book?

 

[yankeesince59]

Gardner is just a fucking hitting machine.....

...and Trout has kept him stranded twice by robbing Young both times.

 

[totus44]

I'm just trying to figure out the spin on CC, 3ER in 5IP being a solid performance....

 

[Mattingly23NY]

2 on 2 out, great slide by DiDi to take out the 2nd baseman covering the bag, to stay out of a DP.....A-Roid ends the rally........

Calling all Batters.........SOS........!!!

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Did Brett inherit Jeter's little black book?

No Brett inherited Swisher's dirty laundry, and A-Roid got Jeter's Black Book, as Alex only rolls with sloppy seconds.........!!

 

[Rick2583]

CC just surrendered his league leading 19th HR. he's on pace to give up around 40. Just unreal.

How much longer do you think it will take before CC is sent to the BullPen???

 

[Rick2583]

I'll go out on a limit here Rob & say..................................................................................................................................NEVER!
