TONIGHT is Capuano time.....


LHP - Chris Capuano, (0-2 7.36 ERA)

VS.

RHP - Sonny Gray, (5-2 1.77 ERA)

This could get ugly tonight.
 
Sonny Gray pitching for Oakland, pitching on paper favors the A's. Yankees have had a lot of problems with that team since'12.
 
Tonight's lineup

LF - Gardner
3B - Headley
DH - Rodriquez
C - McCann
RF - Beltran
1B - Jones
2B - Drew (You're really pissing me off Joe!)
CF - Young
SS - Gregorius
 
At 1st sight, one may ask, are the A's that bad, or is Crapuano better than most think....

at 2nd sight, one may say, the A's are horrid, yet can knock off any team on any given day.....(applicable to all sports, "On Any Given Sunday")......???

The best Cappy can do, this year, is break even IF he's lucky; and remain confined to the Bullpen, IMHO........so far he's shown NO luck.....7.36 ERA, shit so impressive it blinds me.....a 2 inning reliever, no doubt in my mind..........!!! (and hell yes, I still want to be proven wrong, but don't expect a Miracle of this Proportion.......

In Cappy's case, if it weren't for bad luck, he'd have none at all...........!!!
 
Now unfroze, thanks to Whiter Shade of Pale CC score at 4-0, nice job Crapuano.

I always loved that tune, Whiter Shade of Pale, by Procol Harum, almost sounds like early Stevie Winwood, IMO.....

Another error by Headley, what happened to this teams alleged "D"

D, I didn't know we had Defense this year......

Yanx- 35 Errors in 48 games, only Oakland with 51 and TX with 42, have more, and both those teams suck to high hell......

Not saying our beloved Yanx suck, but they do have more than one big problem to conquer to even think of winning the AL East. They won't even see PS, if this team continues to error, as in the trend already shown.........
 
Rangers lost and I depressingly switch over to the Yankees to see more garbage. 11 errors this season for Headley and it's not even June. I would start giving Arod some games at third. Maybe that wakes up Chase's glove.

As much as I despise A-Roid, even more to see Him in the Lineup as anything other than the DH, makes me eat half a jumbo bottle of Tums.....

1 more reason, the Yanx should of held onto Prado, especially since the Yanx are paying Prado 3 Million $$$ of his 11 Million $$$ contract, this year, and next too.....
 
Prado, has been the Marlins Starting 3rd baseman, in 47 of 48 games, Prado has but and only 2 errors; this year in Miami......

11 vs 2.......hmmm, I'd go with the latter, not meaning hindsight, but meaning Prado's Lifetime B'Avg is .290, Headley @ .265

These AL West Late games, suck, if your on the East Coast; and have to work the next morning, might as well close the bars and watch the game too.........

Only difference b/t a Alcohol hangover, and a Yankee (AL West game) addict hangover, is one doesn't require Tylenol/Ibuprofen.......
 
BTW-Michael, have you been to the new Marlins Field, since it opened? If so, other than those gawdy chartreuse colors, how is the game atmosphere and concessions, or overall grade would you give the Marlins new park?????

I know the Trop sux, in all catagories; and I 'd think the Marlins Park, is quit a helluva lot better place to catch a game in person.......Nothing, not even LA's old original Wrigley Field, (home of the then Angels AAA Minor Lg team) can ever compare as the Trops Moniker of having the worst Park/Field in ALL Sports......
 
They're handing back whatever their gained in the sweep of Kansas City.
 
...lol...well, so much for that.

...last one out turns out the lights.
 
Left me see what I missed.....Drew now hitting .158 and super range factor Headley had another error.

What a plan Cashman!

Good thing this road series is only a 7 game affair. They're going to have to bring their A game to host the Halos, then a 2 day affair with the Nats. Hope Max isn't pitching too. IMO, these 5 games will or should prove alot, .....!
 
Its getting ridiculous at this point & yet Joe keeps putting Drew in the lineup. I just don't see the the logic.

Because unless a roster move is made you can't leave the position open on a nightly basis. You cut ties with Drew and bring up Refsnyder or this nonsense just continues.
 
I really didn't believe he could hit worse than last season, hell I didn't think ANY Major league player could hit this bad.

.158 going into June you had better have 15 homers.
