New York Yankees 9, Tampa Bay Rays 5: Bullpen Comes Up Big As The Yankees Take The Series

UPDATE: 7:00 PM: Erik Boland is reporting that Brian Cashman said Mitre will take Pettitte's spot in the rotation. I don't like this move at all. Why risk the injury to Mitre, who rehabbed for a relief role with the team?

UPDATE: 6:40 PM: Jon Heyman is now reporting that Ivan Nova could be the pitcher that replaces Pettitte. He echoes that Pettitte will go on the DL.

UPDATE: 5:50 PM: Andy Pettitte will likely need a DL stint. The options for Saturday to take his place include (not sure if there are any more) Dustin Moseley, Sergio Mitre, and Chad Gaudin. I'd take Nova over all of them except Mitre, but in this situation over Mitre as well, as it is not worth risking an injury to him.

This was not one of the best played games of the Yankees season. The Yankees did not play gloriously and did not outplay the Rays by much. However, this was one of the most important games of the season for the Yankees. So much good came out of this game, following a start that had bad written all over it.

First inning, Carlos Pena three-run home run. Third inning, Andy Pettitte left the game with a groin injury. At this point it seemed like the Yankees were doomed. With their only two long men out after pitching yesterday, the Yankees bullpen seemed hopeless.

Then the Yankees brought in David Robertson, down 3-2 in the 3rd, and he shut down the Rays. Bottom 3rd, Yankees tied the game up. Robertson pitched 1.2 scoreless innings. The decision was a great one by Girardi: if he put in another pitcher, and that pitcher struggled, the Yankees would be much more likely to lose.

Then came Chan Ho Park. Uh oh, here we go again, right? Wrong. 1.1 scoreless innings for Park.

Boone Logan and Joba Chamberlain both pitched 1.2 innings and both gave up one run. Logan was solid outside of a solo home run by Gabe Kapler. Joba was impressive in his first inning, but struggled in his second, giving up three hits overall.

Mariano came in with two outs in the ninth and got Reid Brignac to pop out on one pitch to end the game.

 

Star-divide

As for the hitting, in the bottom of the 5th the Yankees scored four runs. Bottom 6th and 7th the Yankees scored a run a piece. The highlight? Alex Rodriguez' 598th home run off of Randy Choate Andy Sonnanstine the bottom of the 7th inning.

It's a great sign for the Yankees that they were able to beat up David Price, who gave up seven hits and seven runs in five innings of work. Chan Ho Park got the win for the Yankees.

Another great win for the Yankee empire!

Lots of grit and heart overcoming the early injury to Andy Pettitte, who I hope recovers fully! Joba Chamberlain, Chan Ho Park and Boone Logan all pitched admirably after David Robertson came on for Pettitte.

I am intrigued at them as well as the hitters such as Derek Jeter and Curtis Granderson turning around their sub-par seasons! I don’t know anything, so I can’t say that I knew they’d turn it around.

I think I'd like Nova over all of them, too

Especially Mitre. When’s the last time he’s pitched more than 2 innings? And isn’t he re-habbing as a reliever? I think we’re better off letting Nova get a couple of starts, and possibly getting Mitre stretched out. I doubt Pettitte’s going to be ready after the minimum amount of time, so we’ll probably need to cover at least 4 starts.

I know

basketball, baseball, whatever your sport is, it’s a game. It’s for fun. We fans and the players may get serious about it, but in the end it’s still a game.

The World Trade Center, as you said, was one of the most tragic events in the history of the country. Worse for me than some others who are farther away from NY. D-Wade, for all his classiness over the last few weeks, is stupid to make a comment like that.

Great Game

this was the first Yankees game I went to in a long time and it was a lot of fun. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a Yankees game with my dad, so it was very exciting.

A-Rod’s HR was an absolute shot. Usually, when the ball is hit, I’m terrible at judging whether the ball is gone or not, or how far it goes. Usually I’m way off. This time, even I got it right that it was a home run. Thats how well hit it was (although with A-Rod, usually all you need to do is look at his reaction). 2 more to 600. Hopefully he does it at home.

It was a happy game that leaves us Yankees fans sporting very positive attitudes. I hope Andy Pettitte is OK, but I’m sure whoever comes up to take Andy’s next start will do a fantastic job. Just keep winning Yanks.

Bleachers sir

Those aren’t where my season tickets are, but I went with my dad and I wanted to sit with him (my tickets are just for me). So we bought cheap tickets in the bleachers off of this wonderful thing called stubhub.com.

Stadium was actually rather quiet. Lot more empty seats than usual. Still fun though. Me and my dad were about as far away from the field as you can be, but we ate in that sports bar up above the batters eye (first time I’ve ever been up there, it was cool). It was a fun experience.

I’m not going to go to any more Yankees games this week, seeing as I have to go back to work tomorrow (though I will not let it end my endless positivity, despite me hating going to work). I have a lot of work to catch up on since I’ve been on vacation visiting my parents for the last month (which included going to a Rochester Red Wings game and seeing them play Scranton- my first live look at Jesus Montero). So I won’t see is 600th unless he goes on another homerless streak (so I guess I hope I don’t see it then).

Have fun at the game Friday Brandon. Hopefully you see some history, as I believe A-Rod will be the youngest to 600 (he is, right? I’m not sure).

Nova's the right call

I wouldn’t be surprised if Albalandejo (?) or Melancon gets called up for a couple of days to round out the bullpen, then replaced by Nova next weekend. That’s how I’d go.

Interesting take

Here’s what I would do with the roster right now:

Pettitte DL
Nova takes Pettitte’s spot

Gaudin DFA
Albaladejo takes his spot on roster, but not as long man

When Mitre is activated, Moseley DFA

I don't think Albie's in the doghouse

There’s just nowhere to put him because they’re not willing to give up on Chop, Moseley, or Gaudin yet. They may not call him up for this week (even if they go by my plan) because they’d rather not have him up for only a couple of days, or if they want a long man.

by long time listener on Jul 18, 2010 6:50 PM EDT up reply actions  

Interesting thought about SWB

The Yankees, seemingly more than any other major league team, emphasize winning pennants among their minor league teams, often at the expense of player development. Maybe it is more important for them to have SWB win the pennant, and that’s why Alby is buried there.

First the home plate ump blew a strike call and started yelling at K-Rod. Then the home plate ump missed a call at home that would have won the game for SF. Then Huff hit a fair ball right in front of home plate and the Mets threw to first for the out, but the 3B ump inexplicably overruled the fair ball call and called it foul.

This looks like it'll be a make or break point in the season huh?

Andy Pettitte going out with an injury hurts a bit, but in the long run it could help as he is a bit of an old fart and will get his rest now.

I’m looking forward to former Yankees greats Jonathon Alabaldejo and Sergio Mitre getting chances with the Yankees again, en route to championship 28!

get a pitcher maybe 2

It looks like the yankees are going to need a starter more than a reliever at this point. We obviously need both, but how should we go about filling both areas of need? Do we go after a starter thru a trade, or bring up someone to fill the temporary void? Or do we just go after a reliver thru a trade? Its alot to think about since in the past 48 hours our needs have expanded. If AJ can get his head on straight, I say go after bullpen help. If he cant, then we have a real problem.

by eddieo311 on Jul 18, 2010 8:45 PM EDT reply actions  

Definitely don't need 2 starters if that's what you're saying

Maybe a Mitre/Gaudin type of pitcher that can be both reliever or starter…I’d really like Leo Nunez and that type of pitcher maybe

Favorite blogs

Pinstripe Alley (Yankees) and Silver Screen and Roll (LA Lakers). I don’t really care for or comment as much on other blogs. Although I’m thinking of going on more blogs that talk general baseball.

I’m a Giants fan too, although I haven’t really bothered with Big Blue View. I’m not as into Football as I am baseball and basketball, so that may be why.

I say we give nova a look

and if we have to look at a trade, but only for a rental, someone like a Ted Lilly perhaps. At this point I wouldn’t give up Montero, might as wait until the off season or next year to move him.

by andrew21 on Jul 18, 2010 9:47 PM EDT reply actions  

that was my preference too

although Cashman has chosen Mitre. Seeing as I am now positive, instead of complaining about this I will support Cashman in his decision and hope for the best with Sergio.

Have all of you just forgotten how he is the same guy that never brought any creditability with his comments and posts on this site. Not only he bring no creditability but also the old FreeBradshaw always insulted and disrespected anyones opinions in which he didn’t agree.

Thats how I really feel.

Since I joined this site back in March everyone has been very cool. Everyone may not have agreed with someone elses opinion but everyone but FreeBradshaw showed respect for those opinion. Thats why I never liked the old FreeBradshaw. I liked the fact that everyone else is cooled to each others opinion here. That why I feel confortable sharing my opinions about the Yankees with other great fan of the team and reading what everyone else has to say.

Ok this has been eating away at me for a while now.

If you guys are at a Yankees game. You catch a homerun by the other team. Do YOU throw it back?

I’ve seen more and more fans do it these days. I don’t know what I’d do.

If the homerun cost us an important game I might be angry enough to throw it back but these Cubs fans are throwing balls back in a blowout. I just don’t get that.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but many advanced stats count on someone logging every pitch and every play. For example, you have to know what hits are line drives before you can calculate LD%. I don’t think anyone has the resources to do that for every minor league game.

But I think if you really dove into a pile of gold like he did, you’d probably break your neck. Did he have so much money he could just go out and buy new necks? That cartoon was too unrealistic to make sense.

Well it was a skill only Scrooge could master I think.

And it made more sense than Tail Spin

What would they have done in the old days ....

when there was no such thing “Hughes Rules” or the old “Joba Rules” ? And in those days they would pitch 9 innings. When did pitchers become such ..er.. well, you know. They could use a visit by Nolan Ryan who has done wonders here in Texas. The “Ryan Rule” — just get out there and pitch and STAY THERE !!!!!
