Around SBN: The Ten Worst Swings Of The 2011 Season

Seven Straight: Yankees Beat Lee-less Mariners, 6-1

And this guy might've gone to the bullpen? Phil Hughes had maybe his best game, stuff-wise, all year. His fastball reached 96 in the early frames, and he was still clocking in at 94 in the seventh (after 100 pitches). He allowed one run on six hits in seven frames with five K's and no walks. (Love the no walks.) His curveball looked incredible tonight.

Mark Teixeira went 2-4 and both hits landed over the wall. He has four homers in his last five games, bringing his total to a team-leading 17 (one ahead of Cano).

Derek Jeter looks lost: 0-5 and six for his last 45 (.133).

Seven straight wins is a season high and 11 wins from three starters is the most before the All-Star Break since the 1999 Astros.

What might get overlooked is Jose Lopez' error in the sixth on a Jeter grounder. What could've been a (double-play and) two out, none on situation  turned into a no out, first and second situation. The Yankees scored four times after the error and essentially put the game away.

Play of the Game: Don't-cha-know's two-run triple in the sixth (+12.9%).

Comment of the Game: YankeesJets -

Ransom can jump, maybe he can join LeBron and Co in Miami.

His inning limit is believed to be 160-165...

He’s pitched 101 innings now in 86 games. So my guess is he’s going to have to miss several more starts. How they go about doing that… I guess we’re about to see over the next two months.

seven straight....

and i for one and happy we let Cliff Lee get rented by another team for the rest of this season. Lets wait and see what Pettitte decides in the offseason then make that move, when we NEED to make it. Cash needs to focus on the bullpen and bench and the fact he let discussions get that far (and reach ratings whore ESPN) is troubling.

by total hermination on Jul 10, 2010 1:45 AM EDT reply actions  

similar to CC

we can just wait until the offseasonto acquire him. Texas won’t make the playoffs anyway, so its a win win for us. If we trade for him what does our postseason rotation look like? CC, Lee, Pettite, Burnett, Hughes? Do we even go five deep? I doubt it. That move does one of our back-end guys dirty – guys that need to know upper management is behind them.

Okay picture posting kids! It's lecture time!

Putting pictures on these threads is hilarious, but if they’re too big, they cause problems for other people loading the page. So if you’re posting a picture, make sure to resize it to size 300 to make it smaller.

So
1) Take your link:
http://yourargumentisinvalid.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/node/camelfightscrime_0.jpg

2) Use the image box to get the html code (the slashes are inserted so the text shows up)
<//img src=“http://yourargumentisinvalid.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/node/camelfightscrime_0.jpg”/>

3) Type height =“300” into the code after your link
<//img src=“http://yourargumentisinvalid.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/node/camelfightscrime_0.jpg” height= “300”/>

4) Then, voila!

i saw this and

just had to laugh (bolded by me)

Gibson’s troubles have only increased in recent weeks with allegations of bigoted tirades against blacks and Latinos and reports that he is under investigation for assaulting his ex-girlfriend. Several studio executives have said in the wake of these disclosures that they consider the troubled actor to untouchable in the industry. “I’d rather get engaged to Lindsay Lohan than have anything to do with him,” one studio chief said.

I wish the Cavs owner would comment on Gibson

Solid game for the team.

Weird seeing the Cliff Lee deal go down, but I don’t think they need him. Let’s see if they can finish the sweep tomorrow.

There aren’t many “studios” left in the traditional sense. Dreamworks’ Animation wishes they could make the kind of movies Pixar make.

I like Shrek & Dreamworks movies too.

The problem is that a lot of them are dated, using jokes that make sense at the time, but when you watch them 10 years later, just don’t seem as funnny.

As soon as Finding Nemo came out

Dreamworks had to make Shark Tale. That’s kind of where they pissed me off.

The Incredible is my favorite cause I'm a huge superhero fan.

Wall-E is a masterpiece of a movie. I can’t describe it other than Masterpiece. I felt it should’ve won the Oscar that year.

Up was also great.

But WALL-E is one of the greatest films I’ve ever seen. It’s funny, cause The Dark Knight was my favorite movie of that year, due to my love of Batman & The Joker.

Dude, seriously?

Scarface? At least you mentioned Goodfellas. You’ve redeemed yourself slightly. The Godfather (Pts. 1 and 2) owns Scarface. Mean Streets, Taxi Driver. Those are movies.

But it’s like everyone wants to mention Scarface and act like that means something. It’s not even that good of a film besides a few catchphrases…

Routh wasnt a terrible choice as SM, Spacey wasnt a bad LL either, I think Bill Murray couldve done that part even better though. He is very underrated.

The casting was fine

It’s just that the Supes movie universe was never very good.
