Game Thread Yankees vs. Blue Jays Monday 7/3/17, 7:00 pm

Tanaka vs. Stroman

Lineups to follow...

BTW.....F off Joey Bats.

 

[cagedlion]

Red Sox swept these Blue Jays 3-0 scoring 29 runs on 46 hits. Yet, Yankees will face Jay's best
starter in Stroman. Yankees need to get healthy on home cooking, but all depends on the pitching.
Give 'em hell!

The AL East gap is widest with Toronto & Baltimore behind the top three. Baltimore at this writing is losing to the Brewers. Boston draws Texas tonight though the line is on the Beaners we know anything can happen. And the Yankees draw the last place Jays. and as Cage posted face their best starter. If Tanaka can keep the team in the game I'd give the Yankees an edge. Marvel mystery as to how the Yankees have kids for all positions but 1st Base, and somehow keep Headley out there. I just hope this group will find a way to start winning again. .

Mike ford at triple A is doing well and yanks should be giving him a shot up here already.

 

[mrmel29]

Am I the only one that thinks the Yanks should be doing a much better job in getting their young stars tutors to speak the english language already. I'm sick and tired of listening to the god damn interpreters. Guys like sanchez and severino among others for instance have been in the system for years and also someone like tanaka who has been here for 3 years learn the english basics so they can talk for themselves in an interview.

^^^THIS has been a pet peeve of mine for quite awhile....because of the libs our kids are now required to take Spanish in our school systems...while these ball players come to the states to make megabucks but don't even bother to learn the English language.

 

[mrmel29]

Best thing for yanks with bases loaded and headley up....hit the motherfucker ha ha ha

They work here, are paid well to do so, they could not make that much money playing ball in their " home land" so yes they should learn the language. When I was a one hundred dollar a month PFC stationed in Japan I got off my ass and learned to speak the language. As my overseas areas changed I made adjustments for where I was. I will admit to having a very poor attitude to learning Viet Namese.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Got a bad feeling that the failure to get more runs in the 1st may come back to haunt!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[mrmel29]

Gotta bunt that towards first torreyes

 

[mrmel29]

And of course carter with 2 men on spares us the usual strikeout and gives us a dp instead. UGH!!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Carter&^&^&*^&*^&)()(&*_&*&*&&*(^&()GIDP &&%*&^)*&_)(_+_!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[cagedlion]

Unf'king believable the bullshit Carter displays on the ball field. The more Girardi puts this clown
out there, the more frustrated the fans become. What a waste. For a 30 year old athlete, he drags
as if he were 45!

Cashman, you are an idiot for bringing him back.

 

[mrmel29]

ford, ford, ford,ford,ford

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Gardner with a double, no one could get him in. feeble!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Tanaka did his job and kept the team in the game, need some more runs because we'll probably see dumb and dumber in the 8th & 9th.

 

[cagedlion]

Here comes the giving relief corp. If they fail, the team loses to this bunch of battered blue jays!!!!!!!!!!
And that would be shameful.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

I'd hope a woman would never have to endure her man possessing a dick as limp as the Yankees offense>

 

[cagedlion]

Cannot believe they can't get any more hits against Jays' staff! Ridiculous!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Betances, you were God Damn lucky that Yankees Doodles pony kicked a big lucky horseshoe up your tired butt.

 

[cagedlion]

I'm just shaking my head. Headley comes f'king through with clutch hit to add to the lead!

 

[mrmel29]

Headley with the base running. Glad to see it and hopefully chapman can hold this lead

 

[mrmel29]

And as usual carter dp bwahahahahahah

 

[mrmel29]

If chapman blows this one the team should kick his ass in the locker room

 

[cagedlion]

Chapman is proving to be obstinate on the mound. No excuse for his pitch selection. You can see he is
fighting whatever Sanchez is telling him. Chapman is telling his pitches. Finish the damn job!

 

[mrmel29]

Give headley credit in this one. Timely hitting, great base running and vey good defense

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Not a very effective finish by Chapman, glad to see that Russell Martin was the final out, never cared for that guy when he was a Yankee. Kudos to Tanaka for a nice game, In a rare moment Headley was the hitting guy tonight. My guy Torreyes was the hitting fuck up, three times he mad out with runners on but at least he got a couple of RBIs on his last appearance. I found Betances to be very lucky to escape without damage, dumb fuck needs to start getting and staying ahead in the counts.

To me, Betances seemed much more effective in the past when he threw mostly FBs and then once he was ahead in the count he'd throw that snapping breaking ball that hitters couldn't lay of and couldn't hit...not sure if it's Betances decision or if it's the pitch calling by the catcher.

Chapman has been screwed this season because of his overuse last season. The Cubs leaned on him heavily in the playoffs and he hasn't looked right at all this season. This bullpen will need a second win if they're going to get anywhere this season.
