You think Brett is All-star worthy?

 

[yankeesince59]

...I'd like to think the AL coach will add Gardner.

 

[Rick2583]

You think Brett is All-star worthy?

Honestly no, he's just on a hot streak.

 

[Rick2583]

Lineup posted in the OP.

Honestly, Rick told me, He felt Drew s/b in the A.S. game, and starting by Fans Votes........~~

Only as a jock washer.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Only as a jock washer.

good come back Rick, your awake and paying attention, but then you always are.....

I swear Drew was Tommy Lasorda's butt washer in another life.......
(Tommy would piss his pants reguarly with a run scored, he flat out shit them in Game 1 of the 88 Series.....)

sorry- I just recalled the Game Thread s/b left for the game itself, I'll take it elsewhere...

Good to see crap fuck Rodgers recalled.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Your fkn kidding me............!

 

[Messiah717]

Gardy

 

[totus44]

Gardy

Make that 22 for 43!

 

[Rick2583]

Good to see crap fuck Rodgers recalled.

Now why the hell would they do that?

 

[Rick2583]

That screw up in the outfield that just tied up the game is just one of the reasons why Girardi's dumb ass decisions drives me up the wall. Jones is a RIGHT fielder where he's played over 300 games in his career. And yet Girardi puts him in left where he's played only about 25 games in his career. That ball was Gardners all the way.

Warm body to fill in innings in the event Pineda gets knocked out early.
Chances are Rogers won't stick around much longer after this game.

Yeah, warm body with a dead arm.

I hear ya' Rick, that was one of the sloppiest fk fest in the OF, I've ever seen.....

Geezus, looked like Gardy and Jones both wanted to play hacky sack more than MLB caliber BB........WTF......

 

[Mattingly23NY]

that midget 5' 6" Altuve is a big ton of dynamite.......does all the right things too.....I'd love to see Him in Pinstripes........

It was but a few+ years ago, Jose was playing A+ ball here, and his Pic is still on those A+ Team Cups........

as you know Drew played here for 38 games, and hit .380+

 

[Messiah717]

Good job by Pineda limiting it to only one run.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Good job by Pineda limiting it to only one run.

Yeah, that inning could of been a real disaster, not a common one.......!

 

[Rick2583]

Young has been playing left for weeks now why the hell didn't Girardi just leave him there & put Jones in his natural position (RF). No sense at all.

I really hope we can pull this one out. Pineda deserves a win here.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Memo to Yankees: The Bostons helped out today by kicking Archers Tail and beating the Tampa Team. A win today would be super.!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Messiah717]

Only two hits today. Yuck! They mailed this one in today.

 

[Rick2583]

Didi WTF you had him easily at 3rd what the hell are you thinking? That run scores from 3rd, its on you. DICK!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

That was probably the ball game there>

 

[Messiah717]

Thankfully this one is over. I had enough of watching these idiots hit ground balls into shifts all day.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Great way to take advantage of that Tampa loss gang. Pineda with a nice line today, team mates failed to show.

 

[Rick2583]

Two of the Astros runs were defensive gifts. The blunder in the outfield led to one & Didi's bad decision led to another. And no offense certainly didn't help either.

 

[Messiah717]

Oh well onto California. Ellsbury should as long as there's no problems in his rehab games should be back for the July 4th weekend series with Tampa.

 

[Rick2583]

Yeah California where games end at 1-1:30AM here on the east coast.
