Ok, here we go. Sanchez glued to the bench again in his soon to be swan song. Gardner in again for red thunder as I guess he impressed Boone with his 3 k’s yesterday. Lets see if this Yankees team has any guts tonight and tmo. If not major changes coming and should start with cashman and Boone.

 

[mrmel29]

And of course Gardner batting 6th ahead of gio and gleyber. Our manager Aaron “forest gump” Boone is totally lost.

Yes he is.

Boner stated "we're still in control of things". Good thought my question would be if you're down 2- and on the brink of elimination how can you be in control of things. Forrest Gump Boone got a huge chuckle oout of that. I've ben pulling for Jmo ssince day one but all I've seen this year is a guy who gets 4 or five then hits the wall. Today is the day I hit the 3/4 mark. I hope the Yankees can at least get even today Higgy Sanchez out, is'nt he a free agent to be????????????

Not sure I would have to look that up later.

Marlins first out, Oakland on the verge of losing to the tras Caners Yankees with one foot in the grave other on a banana, Dodgers and Padres that will probaby end tonight as well. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in the front office. If they fire Boner I might consider the season a success.

Win Tonight or Go Home.

I am not very optimistic about tonight’s game. To begin with.....”Forest Gump” Boone, a true illusionist.
The guy is all over the place with excuses & to be down 2 games to 1 and say, “....we are in control” is
all you need to know where this team is headed. As for the players, their urgency does not exist....except
for a few. I do not know if this team will get to game 5. In order for this to occur several players need more
hits and less strike outs. Then there is the pitching. Less said the better we all will feel.

Aahh shucks, BaBoone does have Forest Gump mannerisms, but Gump's much brighter than BaBoone!

Here's his baseball card as a MLB Anal-yst

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Baseball, go figure, Oakland A's win their Division, take 7/10 from the Trash Cannerss, then the same Trash Canerss kick the A' s assa=es in the ALDS

 

[cagedlion]

Voit hits HR, his first of these playoffs. NYY 1 TB 0 .....another solo HR!

Sac for lemahieu 2-0 yanks and lefty comes in to face judge who could break the game open here with a long fly ball

 

[cagedlion]

LeMahieu, best Yankee hitter, hits sac fly for a 2-0 lead bot 2. Now begins the Rays bullpen-on-the-fly.....
enter Yarborough.

 

[cagedlion]

Judge is a big disappointment.....again. Leaves two runners stranded.

 

[mrmel29]

And judge continues to suck in the clutch with an excuse me swing grounder on a 2-0 pitch. Come on judge wake up!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Another bases loaded fuck up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[yankeesince59]

My God, Judge...wtf are you swinging at?....Trying to pull an 0-2 pitch that's 1/2 a foot outside?

[Rangers94]

Not for nothing...but Judge shouldn’t be in the 2 spot. He has been awful. Gleyber should be there or Gio. Judge should be batting 6th.

 

[cagedlion]

JMO is imploding in inning 3. Second & third with nobody out! How do you hit a wall
in inning 3?
