Really

wanted a big inning there, but three will do.

A win would do wonders for morale.

Boy have we missed Arod

A-Rod getting hot would also do wonders to relax the rest of the offense.

Team is getting some breaks tonight.

Matsui was toast if the throw is handled.

Rasner has gotten away with is mistakes.

I hope they don’t retaliate for that. Olson wasn’t trying to hit Melky, especially on a 3-2 count.

by anaconda on May 21, 2008 8:12 PM EDT   0 recs

Olsen is also running out of pitches.

I don’t think they’ll retaliate. He wasn’t hit as hard. Jeter and Arod get hit too much. We need to really protect them.

Oops, he’s out while I’m typing.

Jeter gets hit on the left hand a lot

because of his batting style and diving into each pitch. I don’t think opponents are trying to hit him.

by anaconda on May 21, 2008 8:17 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

They buzz him inside.

They do not mind hitting him.

Nice throw by Melky.

Right on the money.

by bronxbound on May 21, 2008 8:25 PM EDT   0 recs

Jeez even the ball boys

are pulling hammys.

Rasner is pitching well, but he’s gotten lucky a few times.

It’s funny because Kennedy pitched about as well his last time out against the Rays but the few mistakes he made were hammered.

Things really working for Rasner

That last pitch he really missed. The hitter missed it for him.

He's thrown a few hangers

but the O’s haven’t made him pay for it.

It's hard to figure out where a pitcher is going

When he keeps not throwing it where he meant to.

That, my friends, is called "karma"

They caught a break on Delgado’s homer the other night and A-Rod had one taken away tonight.

by anaconda on May 21, 2008 9:15 PM EDT   0 recs

How about that.

It happens again. This time A-Rod loses a home-run.

by bronxbound on May 21, 2008 9:15 PM EDT   0 recs

Are they

starting to stretch Joba out. It is the first game i have seen this year that he went 2

Cano is a Pimp

by yankeechaser on May 21, 2008 9:59 PM EDT   0 recs

He's thrown 2 IP this season before

But it would seem odd to let him throw 2 IP in an 8-0 game without a good reason.

by anaconda on May 21, 2008 10:08 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yep....

That’s a good thing for the Yanks. He needs to be a starter.

by anaconda on May 21, 2008 10:11 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I don't mind that he starts.

What I am worried about is who will replace him in the pen.

by bronxbound on May 21, 2008 10:12 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

The conversion isn't going to happen overnight

so they still have a month or more to figure that out.

By then, we may see guys like J.B. Cox and Mark Melancon getting close making their debuts.

by anaconda on May 21, 2008 10:17 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

And the bullpen has been fine

It’s not last year when nobody could get anyone out.

These guys are not perfect but Farnsy, Ollie, Edwar and so on will be OK. The important is to go deep and have a lead.

I agree they haven't been bad per say,

but giving up the Joba-Mariano combo in late innings is hard to swallow.

I guess we’ll see what happens.

by bronxbound on May 21, 2008 10:31 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

They have to get to Joba with a lead in the 8th inning and they haven’t been doing that.

by anaconda on May 21, 2008 10:54 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Yankees cannot win this year

Mr Girardi is very new to this, and will continue to use his aging ballplayers unwisely
