In this case he was trying to make something happen.

...one of the Cardinal sins of Baseball is that you never make the first or third out at 3B.

...it was a bad decision.

 

[Rick2583]

Are they seriously going to get swept at home by Texas?

Unless McCann can pop one here, its very likely.

 

[Rick2583]

Gardner now 5 for his last 33 watching his average go from 318 to 279.

 

[Messiah717]

Going to be .500 and falling. Mediocre pitching and hitting is what I see. They're better than last year how exactly?

 

[Rick2583]

2014 = 23-21
2015 = 22-22

 

[Messiah717]

Another game with two runs in the second and then nothing for eight innings. You just cannot continue to have the bottom four of the lineup be completely inept offensively. Drew batted .177 in April and is batting .176 in May. To continue with him is just madness. He's simply not a MLB hitter anymore at this point.

 

[yankeesince59]

...hard to be positive about this team.

 

[Hammerojustice]

...hard to be positive about this team.

Very hard

 

[yankeesince59]

...hammer, it's been a long time since I was more optimistic about the upcoming Football season and the team I follow than this current Yankees team...and that speaks volumes considering the Raiders were 3-13 last year.

 

[Rick2583]

Well Ron fwiw at 3-13 there's no where to go but up. And yeah these Yankees are just painful to watch. At this point, give the kids a chance.

 

[Messiah717]

Drew needs to be cut already. We're going to be going into June with a guy who cannot hit. DFA already.

 

[Rick2583]

I'm in full agreement Vic, the team cannot continue to carry dead weight.

 

[Hammerojustice]

Well Ron fwiw at 3-13 there's no where to go but up. And yeah these Yankees are just painful to watch. At this point, give the kids a chance.

2-14, 1-15, or 0-16....

 

[Rick2583]

2-14, 1-15, or 0-16....

Okay so technically there is, but I don't see that happening.

 

[yankeesince59]

2-14, 1-15, or 0-16....

...HA! ...no way that happens.

...but seriously, I expect them to win at least twice as many games as last year...yeah, I know, but it's a start.
