...you know, when you first look at the names in the starting lineup, with the exception of Drew and Gregorius, you'd think "Hey, this is a good looking line up."

...hard to believe that this team can't score a ton of runs.

 

[Rick2583]

Ron I swear as I was typing the names I was thinking the very same thing.

 

[yankeesince59]

...good start...Ellsbury BB.

 

[yankeesince59]

...Godner singles to the vacated spot...1st and 3rd...Betran with the FC...Yanx 1-0

Ron I swear as I was typing the names I was thinking the very same thing.

Me too, but I'm kinda hoping the next 158 will have just a little bit more to do with it.

.....oh by the way, Buccholz, Porcello, Miley,Masterson, Kelly- and/or a knuckleballer NOT named R.A.DICKEY aren't quite putting the fear of God in me.....as of NOW.
Gee whiz, I am kooky.

lmao.

Ah....the beauty of a 162 game schedule.

 

[yankeesince59]

...Tex walks....McCann is due....lol, E3

 

[yankeesince59]

lol...ARod the dick with a bases clearing double...4-0 Yanx

 

[Rick2583]

Holy shit, what the hell is going on here? How can we possibly be up 4-0 in the 1st innings. Who are these guys?

 

[Majorball]

You can't make shit like this up!

 

[yankeesince59]

...Headley with a 2 run bomb.... 6-0 Yanx.

 

[Rick2583]

Okay who are these guys & what did you do with the real Yankees?

 

[yankeesince59]

...Drew with a solo HR...7-0 Yanx...It's The Twilight Zone !

 

[yankeesince59]

...DiDi, the rally killer.

 

[Messiah717]

Well that escalated quickly.

 

[blgridesagain]

...Headley with a 2 run bomb.... 6-0 Yanx.

Headley - three game winning hits last year in less than half a season - already has a clutch two out 9th inning tying HR this year........and if/when Drew gets going OR Refsnyder arrives, Martin Prado will be a footnote attached to the Eovaldi/Jones acquisitions.

Just felt the need to include this in the "plan".

 

[Messiah717]

Beltran needs to bat with a tree trunk to have any chance. .091 average.

 

[cagedlion]

I'm in shock. Too numb to talk. and confused

 

[Rick2583]

Not that I would personally know but, he looks like an old man out there.

 

[blgridesagain]

Not that I would personally know but, he looks like an old man out there.

Either he's washed up, or he will not embarrass himself and will hit.
Getting into the flow in the warmer weather will help him.

 

[Rick2583]

Here we go again, 7-3 now with more expected.

 

[Rick2583]

Okay they got the 3 back. now 10-3 still in the 4th.

 

[Messiah717]

Sorry but I just can't with ESPN anymore. Schilling please shut the hell up and Kruk I would just like to smash in the face.

 

[Rick2583]

I hear you Vic, this crew is just terrible.

 

[Messiah717]

This is seriously the best baseball crew ESPN can put together?

 

[Rick2583]

This is seriously the best baseball crew ESPN can put together?

Hell I'd rather John Miller & Joe Morgan over these clowns. Okay maybe that's a stretch.

 

[Messiah717]

Gregorious needs to get his act together with the glove.

 

[totus44]

Just arrived in Germany. I see the yanks found some offense....about time.

How did Tanaka look?

 

[yankeesince59]

...^^^ Masahiro had his moments last night but he's nowhere as dominant as he was early last year.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Got in late, turned on the game and got a sense of sticker shock when I saw the Yankees up 13-4, still have not read the recap or box score. Did see Gregorius muff an infield play that would heve gotten them out of an inning one batter sooner. Also got to see McCann bop that top of the rail bomb. How this team bopped last night was what we'd hope for last year. Nice win but they need to hit a level of consistency which will call for some moves.
