Mitchell vs. Mejia

Lineups to follow...

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Line tonight is on the Yankees. Checking out Mitchell's latest pitching Joe needs to either pray for a miracle, or roll out pen with the fewer numbers the better. A jump start for the offense would also be nice in conjunction with Boston & Tampa losses. Yankees need 2/3 or a sweep in Minnesota.

 

[Lillie]

Ellsbury -CF
Frazier -LF
Judge -RF
Holliday DH
Castro -2B
Gregorious -SS
Headley =3B
Cooper 1B
Romine -C

Minnesota has been the surprise in the AL Central division. They have held their own and are currently a game and a half behind division leading Cleveland. As usual everything depends on Yankee pitching. If they are mediocre,
Minnesota will have a field day at the plate. Same goes for Minnesota pitching. I see a tougher series against a
gritty ball club.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Ellsbury, 3-1 count and strikes out Judge, strikes out again.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Checking Yankees transaction reports I saw a Marchand article on Bird stating he needs a bone operation on his foot and will most likely be gone for the year. Another shit break for this team and I don't think that Cooper guy is a solution.

Yankees batters make it easy for the pitcher........they are swinging at balls in the dirt.
(My IPad keeps changing words that I type).

This sucks big time!!!!!!!!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Note to offense: look at the scoreboard, the Bostons are losing to Toronto, get your asses in gear.

 

[Lillie]

Shut the Fuck up Flash............I don't know who's worse Ruocco or Flash. Give me Michael Kay any day.

 

[yankeesince59]

...great play/throw by Judge to nail the runner at home.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Following on gamecast, figured Judge made a hell of a play. Of course Mitchell has to blow the next one giving the Twins another run.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Another offensive ^&^)&^%^&*^&)&*&*&_.

I HATE IPhones.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Mitchell you are as bad as advertised, but tonight Yankee Doodles Pony has planted a lucky shoe right up your ass!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[cagedlion]

Where has all the hitting gone? Blowing in the wind. Into dust! or so it seems...................................

 

[yankeesince59]

...we've been very unlucky tonight...a lot of very hard hit balls with little to show for it.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Fucking Red Sox have just tied the Jays in the bottom 7th!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Lillie]

I need a time out.... having a Hot Flash.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Boston loses to Toronto 4-3, come on Yankees!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Lillie]

Get your Shit together now.............I don't have time for this Shit tonight.

 

[cagedlion]

Caleb Smith, two impressive innings.........has shown very well down at Scranton He's the real deal.

 

[cagedlion]

Come on.......bust this thing open. Unbelievable. A DP. A killer. They are hitting every
thing hard ........right at somebody.

DiDi, what the hell were you thinking? Potentially threatening inning turns to zilch!!!!!!!!!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

Offense fails again, has anyone on that team remembered that a baseball over the wall with men on base really caps a game. 6 XB hits and only two fucking runs, pathetic!

 

[Yankeefan5545]

C. Smith, two innings of atta boy, one inning of ah shit. But still if the Yankees lose the game the bulk of that blame goes to the offense who managed to see ah shits all night long.

 

[cagedlion]

Real deal Caleb Smith just shit the damn bed! Struggling in the 8th inning. Already gave up 2 runs
and the bases are loaded. Yanks down 4-2 facing their bullpen ace, Kintzler. UGH!

Yes, the offense or the lack of offense is tonight's goat. Timely hitting went down the tubes.

 

[Lillie]

Clipboard Smith and any other piece of Shit that is out there, I'm done.

 

[Yankeefan5545]

And there you have it, another winnable game tossed in the shitter. But don't worry the Yankees are still 3 games over .500. Bad news is Tampa is ahead in Oakland 2-0 at this time. Is'nt 3rd place wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[yankeesince59]

...yet another very winnable game goes in the loss column.
