PSA Comments of the Day 4/28/15: Warren against the AL East

Adam Warren had some good stuff last night. The strong bullpen remains strong. The offense is still scoring runs. It feels good.

Sorry, but this was too good not to use

Before yesterday's game, the Yankees and the Rays were tied for first place in the AL East, which totally matters in April. The point is that the Rays were coming into Yankees Stadium hot, playing very well their last five games. The Yankees put a stop to that, ending their five game winning streak and propelling themselves solely into first place which, again, totally matters in April. I cannot stress that undeniable (okay, slightly deniable) fact enough.

Adam Warren was given the fifth starter job in Spring Training while Chris Capuano and Ivan Nova finish recovering. Thus far he has done well enough in that role. However, a new challenger is approaching. Chase Whitley of the clan "Chase-Ley" is back in the Bronx tonight to give Masahiro Tanaka an extra day of rest while also auditioning to prove his worth to the major league team. We're all rooting for you, Whitley. At least I think we all are.

Comments of the Day

Woo!

It's really hard not to be excited about this combo.

Witty retorts are the best retorts.

So close to that record. Let chaos reign.

Last night was a good first step towards this goal.

It sucks to hear about Brandon McCarthy, but yeah the vitriol that would have been unleashed if that happened while he was here...

/violently shudders

His Twitter game is still top notch.

It was around this time that the Game Thread started getting...weird.

Solid A

Again, the Twins had him DHing and batting fifth in the lineup. That is just...wow.

It might be time.

I believe that's Check and Mate.

Are you pondering what I'm pondering?

Amber Waves of Bean!

Game Enderer Andrew Miller has endered a lot of games so far.

As you can tell by today's article pic, I really liked the GIF Sgt's work on this. Still though, apparently it needs hogs.

GIF of the Day

No chance.

Alex Rodriguez is so close to breaking that record.

Again, it was a weird thread at times.

Dellin was dealing tonight.

Carlos Beltran had one moment of life before continuing to CARL it up at the plate.

Victory!

Honorable Mod Mention

Matt F wins the HMM for Brain McCann. That must be a thing now.

Fun Questions
  • When Ivan Nova comes back, what do you think becomes of Adam Warren?
  • How many strikeouts for Chase Whitley tonight?
