PREGAME NOTES:

Yanks have scored just two runs or less now 47 times on the season. Sickening.

Sidney Ponson is a lifetime 8-9, 4.19 ERA, 1.38 WHIP in 26 games (25 starts) against the Rays. He is 0-1, 4.91 ERA, 2.00 WHIP in 2 starts against them in 2008.

Matt Garza is a lifetime 1-2, 4.34 ERA, 1.34 WHIP in 4 games (3 starts) against the Yanks. He is 1-1, 3.00 ERA, 1.00 WHIP in 2 starts against them in 2008.

Can someone tell me

Why the heck are we even trotting Ponson out there? Is there no one else that we could take a look at for next year?

Holy shit.

One comment? Y’all really get depressed when you aren’t making the playoffs.

Remember when we were kids and we mixed sodas together and called them "suicides"? It was OK though, because Dr. Pepper was always there.

It's scary over here. Like a ghost town.

hah! Bosox fans have doubled yankee comments on their own thread!
I feel dirty… Go Yankees!

He who hesitates is tagged out between first and second base./ Media is plural for mediocre./ If the left part of the brain controls the right part of the body, then only lefties are in the right mind./ If you think the Rays suck, then try walking to Boston in Joe Maddon's shoes. That way, when you say they suck, you're in Boston and you have his shoes!/ Baseball is like church, many go, but few understand.

i dont know about the rest of the fans here, but i usually go out Saturday nights.

I went out after the Sox game.

I’m only 15, so it’s not like I can just drive anywhere I want.

Sorry, didn't realize that y'all were so touchy about losing.

Laugh now...

After the first round of the playoffs y’all be talking about the Patriots.

by celerino73 on Sep 14, 2008 7:25 PM EDT up reply actions

It’s a possibility. Better than not having laughed at all.

Yes and no....

Making this team just good enough to qualify for the postseason and get hammered in the ALDS delayed the inevitable and didn’t allow them to take a step back and make some of the changes they really needed.

It worked for the Red Sox when they missed the postseason in 2006.
