he won't need to
i think he’ll just go 7 and it will be all good
by Brian5517209 on Oct 20, 2009 10:14 PM EDT up reply actions
he could
you really want him going the distance though? On short rest? I’m good with him going 7 or 8 and having one of the relievers who hardly pitched last night finish it (Robertson, Coke, Joba)
7 sounds about right to me
if this score holds.
If it goess higher let Gaudin pitch
he needs to get some exercise
by Monotonousblob on Oct 20, 2009 10:15 PM EDT up reply actions
he's the long man though
i would be worried about using him there, because if Burnett bombs then we’ll need a long reliever.
OK just
the one run, now let’s tack on some more

you need to watch more football
every commercial, they zoom in on the cheerleaders…and not the faces
they always do that
like on YES, the “smile of the game” is always pointed on the cute girls. Although I think thats more for Michael Kay’s enjoyment than the viewers. LOL
the woman in the Fidelity commercial
played Will Smith’s mom in Fresh Prince of Bel-Air.
i watched way too much TV in the early 90’s.

If you’re a Yankee fan in Angel stadium, you get a BLACK thunder stick and a dirty look from the fat lady handing out copies of Beauty and the Beast on DVD.
Now I would give C.C. a short leash in the 7th. Then I would bring in Joba and unless he really has nothing let him go the entire inning. Then I would let Hughes go the ENTIRE 8th. Then Rivera the entire 9th.
i wouldn't go to Joba at all

With a four run lead the idea of situational pitching to lefties nauseates me. I really hope it doesn’t happen.
what you guys think i think Matsui needs a rest Day....?
everytime he gets a day off he comes back with a HR….
I'm worried
Girardi might start micro-managing again.
we're leading.
doesn’t matter.
