Lynn vs. Hutchison

Lineups to follow...

Yankee fans, who some think are spoiled fans, are blasting Boone & Cashman on SportsTalk radio for their
frustrating incompetence. When loyal fans voice their displeasure with the actions or lack of actions by the
manager & GM, they see their team falling and the fans are not a happy bunch. Spoiled my ass! Fans have been
witnessing ‘inconsistency’ & mismanagement this entire season.
It began when Trashman decided he did not want Girardi as manager with the glib remark, “It’s time for a change.”
Then he selects “a safety net manager with no experience”. Such an intentional pick was to serve one purpose,
and it was not to benefit the team, but.......to save his own ass.
Whatever happens through this season’s conclusion, what will stand out is the ineptness of a manager & GM
who have been flailing at their respective responsibilities.

The focus should be on the team, but this “inept duo” have robbed the joy from the Yankee
team. Players are well aware and management is affecting their play on the field.

Time to get back on track. Save face from last night’s pitching disaster. I have no faith in
Boone, and the players need to look past their manager’s skittish actions....though, I do admit
this is not easy when he’s right there blowing his bubble gum!

Lynn is a professional & hopefully he will pitch a good game.

 

[Lillie]

It looks like it's going to Rain again this afternoon as usual.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Will you look at that outfield what kind of crap is in Boners bubble gum? Robinson in Center and Walker in right! Lynn will need a lot of swings and misses today.

Both of our Ace's have been asleep at the wheel. Blew my mind Tank looked more like a Tonka truck, allowing three home runs and six earned runs WTF... & the rookie Blast's 3 home runs, shiiittt. CC, hope he retires no more one-year deals for the Fatman.
Comes down to relying on our two pickups J A Happ and mr. Lynn playing the violin... hope he continues 2 turn the Stradivarius into a foot Stompin Barn Burning fiddle....
There's going to be a hoe down...

Hardcore Yankee fans withstand eternal Winds of time....
Where the hell are those who question our loyalty, when we call a spade a spade. Where the hell are they when Chapman shits his pants twice in one week blah de blah de blah de.
MIA- obviously singing Kumbaya as Rome Burns.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Kumbaya Yankee fans Kumbaya....

Excuse me. I had no right to criticize Tank, since that was his first loss since April 17th, let's not talk about those no decisions. I got to say his last outing didn't surprise me, yet It did.... I expected them to stop the bleeding, my bad, LOL otherwise I might just cry...

So- Kumbaya My Lord Kumbaya...
Tis not baBoones fault. Someone spiked his bubblegum with LSD, cuz he's hallucinating he's a big league manager...

Baseball fundamentals 101- before A-Team takes to the field to warm up. It's all about appearance with uniform integrity. No sloppiness, no lazy improper attire. Other teams respect or disrespect tight uniformity &/ or the lack thereof. Why doesn't baboone just wear an A-frame wife beaters under shirt????

 

[Lillie]

Stanton with a Bomb.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^^I was taught early on to always question whatever warrants explanation in this crazy world of ours.
With all the strange moves in the front office and on the field, any loyal Yankee fan would question....
” WTF is going on?”.

 

[Lillie]

Bird is The Word.

 

[mrmel29]

Bird is The Word.

Would like to hear a lot more of that line Lill!!

 

[Lillie]

Neil Walker is useless.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Lynn struck out the Rangers 1-2-3 in the 1st. Gotta like his work ethic & pre-game warm up approach...

 

[Mattingly23NY]

Bird with an RBI double drives in Andujar.... Bird singing I'm Not Dead Yet.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Lynn did his job but the offense shows little sense of urgency to this point.

 

[Lillie]

Will you Idiots score some more runs please.

 

[Lillie]

Good job Bird.

 

[Lillie]

Take him out.

 

[cagedlion]

Britton is this close to ruining a good pitching effort. Five innings is not acceptable for any starter. But Yankee
management thinks they have a star- studded bullpen...... wow, are they so wrong! Yankees barely holding on
with 2 outs top of 7th and Bettanshit entering. 50-50 it could go either way here. SOB.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Up by two, sent in Britton,
Two quick outs and he started shittin'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jesus fucking Christ

 

[Lillie]

Now a Balk.

 

[cagedlion]

And that’s why I do not like BaBoone. Open up your damn mouth and let the umpire know he blew that call!

Betances balks in the tying run. Typical unfocused bullshit by this pitcher.

 

[mrmel29]

Uunbelievable. Britton has sucked ass so far and shouldn't be near the later innings until he starts pitching better

 

[Yankeefan5545]

And Betances add his own individual fuck up to tie the score.

 

[mrmel29]

And Betances add his own individual fuck up to tie the score.

Yeo. Comes in and gets the guy out and still finds a way to screw it up

 

[Lillie]

[Lillie]

Andoojar.
