Biggie vs. Clevinger

Lineups to follow...

 

[cagedlion]

Just a suggestion to MLB channel.....if your commentators feel BaBoone, Gardner & CC are going
too far with their ‘aggression’ on rookie umpires, may I suggest, since you are so critical of the Yankees’
actions, that you stop showing videos of BaBoone ‘raging’ against these umpires. You can’t have your
cake and eat it too! Just stop showing something that you voice as critical. Now, let’s move on from
your Yankee angst!

 

[cagedlion]

Should be interesting that today’s HP umpire threw Sabathia out of Saturday’s game. I wonder how long
CC lasts in this ballgame? Do not want to see a parade of Trashman’s “Not ready for Prime Time pitchers”
being escorted on & off the mound.

 

[cagedlion]

CC is up against opposing pitcher, Mike Clevinger, who has a 7 - 2 & ERA 3.34. Yankees need to get to this
guy early. He gets stronger as the game moves on. As usual everything hinges on how Boner uses/misuses
his bullpen.

Odds favor Cleveland today, Clevenger over Biggie I'd say, Clevenger is as the rest of the Cleveland Staff is pretty good. Though I tip a cap I still think the Yankees can find a way to win. Get todays game and the Yankees will have both this and the season series.

CC sucks. Same old same old SLOW SLOPPY SHIT

 

[Lillie]

Biggie Shitting the Bed already.

 

[mrmel29]

CC pitching is like having one of those openers. Relievers will have a ton of innings to cover agaim

 

[cagedlion]

CC implodes in 2nd inning. Several walks , a couple of singles, & a HR .....so far. Yankees down 4 - 0....and the bases are loaded. BaBoone enjoying the game!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

hey Boner, you watching this shit???????????????????????????

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Boner sends out Biggie for another roasting like the kind Eovaldi is getting from the Orioles right now Bostons down 6-0.

 

[cagedlion]

Clevinger looks like an elephant with his wagging trunk( his arm) before he pitches with men on base.
Weird and very funny! Anything to distract the batter!

 

[mrmel29]

Thanks for the 3 innings CC as you kill. The bullpen again. PLEASE RETIRE NOW

 

[Yankeefan5545]

The reliever parade begins reminding me of the Sondheim written Judy Collins sung "Send in the Clowns".

 

[Lillie]

In comes Nesta the Molesta.

 

[cagedlion]

Well, at least it is a nice sunny day. Unfortunately, the game becomes secondary when the pitching
does not show. Today the Yankees could be shut out for the first time this year.

 

[Lillie]

I think Cesspool is coming in.

 

[Lillie]

DJ Goes Yard 6-2 in the 7th.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^^well, there goes the shut out.....Thank you DJ......

 

[cagedlion]

Cessa is everything you do not want in a reliever. Hence, the name Cesspool.
Never ceases that he continually gives opponents tack on runs. Again, BaBoone’s
choices are completely wrong. Lack of pitching knowledge will always make me
critical of his managerial status.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Too much, too little, too late! Damn I thought for a minute the Yankees could tie or win. To add insult to injury the Rats won and the Pink Hatters are on the verge of a win,

 

[Lillie]

Off to The West Coast after a Day Off.

 

[cagedlion]

West coast junkets were tough for many Yankee teams, but this trip offers the A’s, the Dodgers &
the Mariners. Yankee playoff team will be tested by the A’s & the Dodgers with a fall off with the
Mariners.
