Cole v. Glasnow

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Per the recap on last nights game Voit commented on how good a team Tampa was a real string of butt smooching comments. Been many time that I wish Bird was able to be succesful with this team. IMO Voit may hit a bomb or ttwo but he's a buther att first.. I uess we'll see if Cole can be a stopper instead of a drainpipe akin to Tanaka last night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Infield defense shaky at best with Sanchez, voit, gleyber and andujar when he’s in there. Need to start moving the weeping willow and happ out and get Schmidt and Cruz in there and get them some innings. Yanks starters and the b relief group Boone insists on using as much as the A group plus the defense makes the yanks imo less of a lock than a lot of others do.

Same shit with these guys...2 strike count and they're sitting on a certain pitch so they can hit that elusive 5 run HR?...Jesus tap dancing Christ, shorten your swing, make contact, and get on base.

This made for TV version of Baseball we are now being force fed is not the game I grew up with.

 

[yankeesince59]

Meadows hits a ball that was literally 6 inches from the ground for his first hit ever off of Cole...go figure.

 

[yankeesince59]

Needless to say, 1 freaking hit ain't gonna get it done boys.

Damnit Gardner...2 strikes, swing the f'ing bat !...nah, just stand there with the bat on your shoulder as strike 3 goes whizzing by.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Right now Boners knees are knoocking, his aceis faltering, his offense is failiing and he's going to have to make moves with his over rated pen. ooks like another L in the books unless some one wakes up

Hicks wakes up...with a leadoff triple.
