Nothing better than to have ex mutt give a way (I mean trade) bruce hit a 2 run homer. The indians hit and girardi's wanting of no hit frazier at third for defense hurts us. Need headley's bat in there at third especially with indians all righty staff and you can bring in frazier for defense in 8th or 9th with a lead. Would rather have seve pitching tmo who can go deeper than the 5 IP at best you'll get from cc tmo. Outside of his 2 september blowups against the twins for some reason Seve dominated every other team he faced. Would hate to get swept if that happens without seve getting a start

Thank you Dufas.

...to be fair, not that he was by any means dominating tonight, but the HR Gray gave up was a good pitch...and it was out of the strike zone...I defy anyone to show me a game where a team won while scoring ZERO runs and ZERO hits.

No hit through 5, not looking good!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sad the offense is a no show.

What channel are the Rangers on??? I'm losing interest.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Jaime in there, shit here comes the JP 4 to the fire.

 

[mrmel29]

Hope he gets betances in for a couple of innings tonight to see what he has.

Yankees making Bauer look like Super Cy Young this evening. 6 innings only one hit, no runs.

It’s been a real sucky evening. Bauer mesmerizing the Yankee bats. Hockey Rangers lose on opening night.......
Only good thing was Astros beating those Cheaters from Boston Common!

Francona really knew what he was doing.........pitching Bauer tonight.

 

[mrmel29]

Sanchez has had a rough year defensively but the number of pitchers that yankee pitchers throw that bounce before they reach the plate is just ridiculous.

 

[Messiah717]

I'll keep the faith but this Indian team is excellent. They should've won the series last year and are the odds on favorite here.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

When the '16 Indians arrived to post season last year they weren't playing with a full deck and Kluber was their only starter in prime shape. But Francona managed well, surprised people with his bull pen and they almost made it. Remembering how the Red Sox Players stabbed Francona in the back and threw him under the bus, I was glad to see Cleveland take out Boston and Rid Boy Ortiz. The current unit is better for sure but as my old buddy Joe Morgan used to say sometimes the best team does not win.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Judge, Jesus Christ was that your 4th strike out this evening.

Wow I must have been really ripe last night, my Husband isn't talking to me this morning.
