Game Thread Yankees vs. Blue Jays Wednesday 9/7/16, 7:05 pm

[blgridesagain]

Girardi is playing with fire. He removed a pitcher who was dominant and hadn't allowed a hard hit ball in his last inning in favor of a reliever who is not a closer.

Take a seat Joey Bats.

...holy crap...Yanx sweep the Jays...WOOO HOOO !

 

[Lillie]

Get the brooms out......... Yankees sweep the Idiots!!!

 

[blgridesagain]

Ballgame over, Yankees win, tthhheeee Yankees WIN!


Sweet sweep....never would of figured 2 runs would be enough to win this game.

And I'd like to give Girardi a kick in the ass for over managing by pulling Severino after the 8th inning.

 

[blgridesagain]

Yanks pick up a game on Baltimore, Detroit and Toronto and if this team has ONE decent winning streak in them, now is the time.

Giradi managed this game well, Mitchell to Severino worked well, and you knew Clippard was going to come in with Dellin unavailable. Pedro Gomez made a comment on Joe Girardi management abaility today. He took an 8-17 team staffed with Prima Donnas, slackers, went through a huge amount of change. Now he's got hungry newbies whom he hardly knows yet had cultivated a winning formula. Yes he does shit that will blow your mind sometimes but the man is 20 flight. I like what he is doing with this team.

Have to keep it going against Tampa. Four game series at home against a last place team. Tampa can give them fits but there's no excuse if this is for real.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Tampa will be facing a much different Yankee Team than that group that got swept at Tropicana. That being said the Yankees need to keep kicking butt during this home stand.

 

[Lillie]

They have to take at least 3 out of 4 against the Rays to keep pace with the other teams.

 

[Messiah717]

Keep Tex out of the lineup. He's finished. Thank you.

I'm already worrying about this upcoming TB series.
Tampa Bay is not rolling over and have recently been kinda respectable,
4-6 last ten, 10-10 last 20, 14-16 last 30.
Yanks just 6-6 vs them this year, I know the Yanks have different personel than earlier but it's not going to stop TB from playing hard- imo.

Cobb is starting the series and he has absolutely owned the Yanks,
10G, 70 IP, 1.93 ERA/ 0.84 WHIP and averages 7 IP per start......again I realize this is a different Yankee team but it's not going to distract Cobb when he sees Yankee uniforms.
And of course there's Longoria, he loves the Yanks, 12 RBI in 12 games.
.304/.883

lol, This series has "trap" written all over it.

Exciting....but managing expectations.

 

[Messiah717]

It's fun but in reality still a long shot. Tempering expectations is realistic. These are all like playoff games.

...I think Joe merits some consideration for MOY...especially if they make the PS.

Getting tired of Longorias shit, the staff to a man has to move his ass off the God Damn plate.
