Damn Angels

Again with the @#$% ing Angels

Sloppy play, and a poor game called by Posada have led to this ridiculous excuse for a baseball game. Why did we demote Cervelli and keep Cody Ransom? Or is Andy completely washed up?

This team is loaded with talent yet we can't put out the Angels who don't even have Vlad or Hunter in the lineup... I mean Aybar, Abreu and Howie "AAA" Kendrick are killing us.

Suggestions, comments or explanations?

We tooke 2 out of 3 from the angels earlier this year...so it hasn't been as bad as the previous years.

We have the offense to win, but our pitching as been crap. Outside of AJ and CC it has been inconsistent. It’s not exactly 100% posada’s fault our pitchers can’t hit the spots or make that big pitch. Also i hope heinske’s performance today would make joe girardi pull his head out of his ass and stop his love affair with Ransom. We have the offense, just need the pitching to match it. AJ and Cc are big second half pitchers but Pettite and Joba needs a wake up call. Getting Wang back to the rotation would help too. He was showing signs of the vintage CMW before he got injured.

Weren't you the one saying the Yanks would be eight games back by the All-Star game?

Blaming a Hall of Fame catcher for calling a bad game is nuts. Posada has never called a bad game in his life. The pitchers have shit for a pitching coach and Girardi is clueless. We should be ahead by 5-6 games over Boston. Andy Pettitte is all washed up, may get 5-6 wins from him from here on out. I would move him by July 31st and get some bp help, prospects, whatever….Ransom would be gone, they need another outfield bat with Nady all but dead. gardner needs to go back to Scranton, matsui and Posada dh, Cervelli behind the plate……..and get a F^%$ing pitching coach..

Gardner

Has been Great in my eyes. He has been making plays in the outfield. He isnt known for his bat but he has been getting two rbi’s here and there. Keep him.

I disagree with Posada assessment.. I always thought he was horrible defensive catcher.. and I always wondered why every time a big time pitcher came into town they ALWAYS had a problem with him even if they eventually were forced to get along with him by the mgr.. Think Cone..Mussina..Clemens .>Randy Johnson ..heck even EL Duque who got into a fist fight with him.. He is a great Yankee and I think he would make a wonderful DH.. however just think if we had someone who could throw.. (think the Dave Roberts play) we may still be chanting 1918 lol..
