Looks like Hicks is okay, no strain, no tear

 

[Yankeefan5545]

The Yankee Outfield Judge, Hicks, McCutchen, & Gardner is better than damn good.

I have very little faith in the MLB writers, and never have.
I have a hard time comprehending how anyone other than Andujar is worthy of the ROY.

No fkng way Ohtani's worthy of ROY, no fkng way...

If ROY award is given to players who play half the time than the whole season, the award becomes
meaningless, and the sportswriters are not voting in good faith.

 

[cagedlion]

Tanaka would be the third candidate for the starting job in the Wild Card jackpot. What makes this
contest sadder than usual is that one of three pitchers must convince the likes of Trashman & BaBoone,
two individuals who know little about pitching! That’s a conundrum for this team.

 

[cagedlion]

Imagine winning 100 games or more and your whole season hinges on a one game playoff. That plain sucks!
MLB needs to change the format. The more I think about it, it makes more sense to pick the top four winners
in each league and play the best of seven.

 

[Lillie]

By the way Pink Hatters up 8-3 against The Orioles 5th inning.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Ohtani, damn, I didn't see him on the field when the Yankees & Angels played. Maybe he could get the sham artists award. Andujar was sent to the minors, came back, won the job and has run like a Swiss Watch. ROY no doubt. All the morons at ESPN & MLB are more full of shit than a septic tank. Both of those networks dish a lot of anti Yankee sentiment.

Amen.... I totally agree best four teams

 

[Lillie]

Boone said Hicks could return on Friday.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

I'm still waiting for Judge to get hold of one and get started on a season & playoff tear.

 

[Mattingly23NY]

 

[cagedlion]

Yeah. And I’m still waiting for Stanton & Sanchez “to carry this team” to the Promised Land!!!
The days are dwindling......

I remember watching that game , sad moment, Mo was like a well oiled machine, when he came in the deal was sealed. During game two of the '95 ALDS I caught what I could of the game driving home from work, seemed like Mo pitched forever in that game with the Yankees winning. It's going to be a long time before we see any one like that guy.

 

[cagedlion]

We will again be treated to David Cone’s analysis which turns into philosophical diarrhea......he means well but
he talks so much that my ears burn.....

This pitcher looks like a girl.

 

[cagedlion]

Walker crushes 3 run HR. In 1st inning! Yankees 3-0.

 

[Lillie]

Walker 3-0.

 

[cagedlion]

Come on Tanaka. You have been treated to a rare first inning 3 run lead. Hold it.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Like to see that scoring start early. Now make it often!!!!!!!!!!!
