he does.
Damn you Jeter!!!
he doesn;t
I’m right, HELL YEA!
You’re like a little miniature Buddha, covered in hair.
He should have.
+1.
Nope!
man it feels good to be back on here, i had to study for 2 finals last night so i couldn’t watch the game, but good to see a-rod coming back around.
How was CC in the first 2 innings, apparently not good?
I just got home at it was 3-2 with cervelli batting
1st inning was good. The scored a lucky run with small ball but the 2nd inning no so much.
2nd inning was bad. 1st inning was when a run scored on a groundout.
aight thanks guys for the updates
yeah we skip King Felix but we’re going to see Halliday.
What else is knew?
new.
Give me a shot to fix it at least, damn.
Not only do you fix my mistakes but you steal my posts also?
I’m just havin’ some fun. I live a boring and lonely life.
Hahaha. Awesome.
MP=Spellchecker and totally gay
grammer fail
Halladay.
Oh my bad thanks.
Your just full of em today aren’t you?
I’m like the Umpire @ RAB.
If you get to be the ump then I call Joe Girardi.
I call Jeta. he gets all the arse.
ietc
I’d make that trade if I were Toronto. Maybe. Felix is probably going to be more expensive in a couple of years, but he’ll be on the right side of 30.
Wang’s facing him, right?
So it doesn’t really matter.
its not fair sometimes, we ALWAYS seem to face beckett and holliday on EVERY turn of playing those teams…
Just about.
whose going to the game on the 4th?
I am
Me. Unless it snows. Which wouldn’t surprise me.
Im sitting in 213
Nice!
Jetesss
Damn, that shit was in the other batter’s box!
no DP Johnny!
or Tex
Jeter. You asshole.
Good throw, Kenji.
yeah, perfect.
Damn it Jeter…oh well.
Well, this means A-Rod can have another lead-off walk that leads to the big inning.
That inning was too quick…
Tex’s BABIP is still at .272, excluding today. I’m excited for those hits to start falling.
is it me or is Tex pulling lately.
tex always pulls…and tugs (had to)
haha icwutd
transformers = waste of two hours and forty minutes
I wanted more Ms. Fox and less Shia.
But, overall. I enjoyed it.
want to see it.
I would not mind a nude scene or two.
they’re coming.
fox can’t act worth sheet though
give me jessica alba over megan fox any day of the week
there is a reason why derek hasn’t tapped fox but hit up alba…
With that body, and her role in that movie. She does not need to act. Just look good.
Lol, I scoffed at all the slow-mo scenes they had of her running. But at the same time, paid very close attention.
Hah. But did you enjoy the movie overall?
Alba=kettle, Fox=pot. Watch Honey or Into the Blue if your memory needs refreshing.
A very sexy kettle and pot though.
yeah i’ve seen them both.
i feel what you’re sayin but i’ll take alba.
Yeah, me too. But let’s not pretend like their acting has anything to do with it, haha.
hahaha you speak tha truth
it’s only because he’s dating that chick..don’t ask me…He’s got her on the list.
hahaha yeah he does seem to date the best at the moment
Really? I was planning on going!
megan fox…mmmmmmmmm…worth it
If you liked the first one then you’ll like it. Or if you like hot girls then watch it.
terrible terrible film. More substance in a 5 minute looney tunes cartoon. Cannot believe that they are projected to make over $500M from that crap.
Let me tell you, that mask does not protect you as much as you think. Your jaw is pretty damn exposed.
10 yr olds>>>>>Matt
That shit never happened with the 11-12 year olds. They were big enough to block foul balls, but the ten year olds are like fuckin’ munchkins and everything goes right over them.
man derek needs to get this range up to what he was doing in the ATL
That ball was scorched. No ss was getting to that unless they were heading toward second to cover the steal.
lol, did anyone see angel hernandez show Verlander why he was called for a balk? It looked like he was sticking his right foot in and shaking it all about.
ICWUDT
Why can’t Michael Kay just say “fortunately” like a normal person?
Matt=Normal Person
Michael Kay= Superstar
when did Gutierrez become Mr. Patient?
Damn it CC!
Good catch, but that was scary!
Melky misplayed that one into a nice catch.
Hello top ten
Melky shuffles to the ball.
man this really sucks, cc needs a changeup for a GIDP soon
Come on, CC; finish off these ABs.
I’m gonna watch the fireworks from the GW bridge.
It’s gonna be awesome.
What the?
I think it’s time for CC to throw a breaking ball…
Damn O’Neil had to open his fat mouth.
All they are doing is hitting change ups. Why no sliders?
Jeter misplayed that. He came in and then jumped.
you tell em!
Is there anything i,ve miss?
Eh, CC was due for a start like this.
That may be true, but it’s infuriating to see it come at the hands of a lineup as wretched as this one.
Kenny Singleton’s the man and everyone should know it.
Michael Kay sucks and everyone knows it.
Singleton is great though.
Just voted 50 times for Tex. Thats the most excited thing I’ve done all week.
And in no way is that depressing.
Its the freaking rain, its literally rained for a week straight here in Massachusetts.
Ietc.
you need to get new friends
I do not envy you.
LOL. I’m still voting!
My dad massaged my feet and he got arrested….
Did we really need to hear about the foot massage??
“unfortunately he’s the second son” WTF Kay you’re an idiot.
hahaha sometimes kay likes to hear kay speak
After a comment like that from Kay, where’s pat when you need him?
getting a foot message.
My dog used to massage my feet.
Does he throw Ichiro a breaking ball like last time?
That was a terrible play and and a terrible pitch call.
So is Ichiro’s MVP win over Giambi criminal or really criminal?
I can has Brett Gardner plz?
I don’t think he’s got that either though.
Eh, I think he’s better at getting to spots than Melky is.
How many mis-steps has Grit made? A lot IMO.
Gardner’s misplayed as many if not more than Melky.
Possible, but he still doesn’t get that.
I agree.
Eh. We didn’t even see a replay of Melk’s first move yet. That ball was smashed.
Beltran has that!
Guittierez has that!
A-Jax will soon has that!1!1!
No, but your mom does!
im on ur bench
gettin a big hed
Great…
well this game is basically over…
Not really.
yeah i’m just being defeatist
Not on my watch, Dela.
Well this game isnt go well for CC.
Ichiro tattooed that one
not really. That ball just seemed to carry forever. I doubt if Ichiro thought it was crushed that he would have been running so lazily.
Didn’t you see the replay? that ball JUMPED off the bat.
ew.
Game isn’t over till the 27th out is made.
This shit was ovah in the 2nd!!11!
Woo!
man i thought sabathia would be able to get out of this unscathed…
oh well
Damn…we can still comeback
Well, the winnning streak was nice while it lasted. If we lose tommorow, Girardi better get his ass ejected.
Please, Yankees are winning this game.
Oh, Russell.
Kay is the biggest moron.
Branyan cant even get the ball on the bat. Poor guy.
Can’t imagine how Branyan must be feeling right now.
well hey at least he can say “at least i’m not chris davis of the rangers…”
A little hungry, a little thirsty.
“Hey I’m making a cool few mill and you’re not”
Must be nice…
“I’m earning more money a strikeout than you are a week”.
Ol’ Jack is a Yanks fan too!
Bandwagon!
cc has nothing…
he is pumping 97 gas up there he just needs to locate his pitches better.
he hasnt been locating all night.
he struck out 6 in a row….
even if hes not locating he has the stuff to K guys
Then he has something.
CC just doesn’t have it tonight, no velocity issue, control is alright, they just hit everything tonight. Still, it’s only the 4th inning and we are down by 4, we’ve got a chance still.
And thank you, Russell Branyan, 7 straight K’s? Granted, they were all lefties.
It must be jorge’s fault…oh wait.
Cervi’s ERA must have skyrocketed tonight.
*CERA
damn, that was ball four Alex oh well
Well the yanks are down 4 with a couple innings to go. So this game is FAR from over.
And the comeback begins……………now.
What’s going on with our Yankees, guys? They need to play better now!
Well that’s one way to get better. Godzilla homers! Go Yankees go!!!!!!!!!!!!
sorry, that was just gay
Can this d00d be banned already? He adds nothing.
Michael Kay would like As Good as it Gets.
A HR or two from some guys who are overdue (Tex, Robbie, Matsui, Jeter, Swisher) would be nice.
YOU GOT THE GOZILLA THRILLA!!!
6-4 !!!! WHOOOOOO!!!OOO!!!OO!!!
And thank you Matsui
YOU ARE THE BOMB SALTY
YOU CALLED THAT SHEET
Shit Teixeira is still down 40,000 and Kinsler is hanging on for dear life by 7,000 votes over Pedroia. Anyone who hasn’t has gotta vote quick.
Don’t let 3 Red Sox patrol the field for the beginning of the ASG
BUT WE LOSTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT
MATSUI SUCKSSS!!! HES WASHED UP!!!! CERVELLI AND POSADA FTW!!111!!!!1111
DFA MATSUI, BRING UP SHEEEEEEELLLLEY!
See? Game not over yet.
Godzilla: I’m not done yet. Almost, but not just yet.
Yeah Matsui’s toast, let’s DFA him. He only OPS’ed .950 in the three weeks prior to the road trip in NL parks.
Heh. Tell that to tommie.
All this talk of DFAing Matsui. We should be DFAing CC. 6 runs in 5 inning. Garbage. Release him or put him in the eight!
Oh Godzilla !!!!
Matsui’s done. His bat looks so slow up there, he’s nothing more than a DH now, two bum knees…
YESS!!!!
So you think you’re hot shit don’t you ichiro? Lets see you do that.
don’t tempted him. he is a lefty.
I love yellow power.
Just stop watching everybody. Dela G already declared it over. Nothing to see here.
hahaha i did say the game was over
my bad
LOL I don’t think Ichiro likes the NY fans. That’s the second time he didn’t throw the ball into the stands.
Oh, Bob. You clever bastard.
Ha, the bee man is the shit.
Eww, As Good as It Gets is my favorite Nicholson flick as well. I don’t want to have things in common with Michael Kay.
haven’t you seen the Shining, or Wolf, or One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest?
Nope.
You are doing yourself a disservice. Skip a game, rent all three (you could leave off Wolf, wonderful, but a bit cheesy for young folk). Make some popcorn and understand what a good movie is all about.
it’d be nice if the offense could pick up cc
I hated “Something’s Gotta Give”…
Hughes throws two innings today.. right? RIGHT!??!?!
I certainly hope so!
This SHOULD be CC’s last inning…
WHAT!!!!!!! not on this planet dude.
Seriously? What’s the point of keeping CC in a game in which he’s already up to 90 pitches and has already given up 6 runs?
because he’s the best pitcher we have. Other than Mo. People are acting like 90 is a lot.
No, 90 isn’t a lot for CC but I’d like to keep his PC down in a game that he’s losing/already been hit hard in. Giving Hughes/Ace two innings each here wouldn’t hurt at all.
Eh, CC’s good for 2 more, D -Rob and Phil need work.
My favorite Jack movies are Batman, Cuckoo’s Nest, and The Shining.
No The Departed?
That movie was tremendous.
Departed is great movie, but Jack was amazing in those other movies.
Oh, I forgot about that.
Good selection. Wolf is bad as too.
A-Rod is done!! First Baseman!!!11!
Get out of the inning CC! Go yanks.
fuckin franklin
It’s a Hughes night!
No pun intended I’m not Michael Kay
So, IMO, this is a game where Joe should take CC out early and let Hughes and Ace get 2 innings each. I know it’s close but CC doesn’t need to be out there any longer.
He’s currently at 88 pitches. Maybe the yanks squeeze one more inning out of him.
One? how bout two? One is a given.
No, they should take him out. I’d put robertson in for the 6th and hughes for 7th/8th. CC’s been pretty bad.
assuming drob and hughes will be perfect is kind of foolish. then whos the 9th? Tomko?
where did i say drob and hughes would be perfect??? Worry about the 9th when we get there.
Well, you already had the 6-8th planned, i figured you had the 9th planned as well.
Come on broski. 90 pitches. 9 pitch inning. I don’t know when u want him to come out but not just yet.
I feel like there’s no need for him to be out there anymore. Hughes and Aceves can definitely keep this one close/where it is.
Word.. we just disagree, no biggie, I’m ready for CC to clean up his mess.
Agreed, he’s been pretty bad, and by his standards, he’s been awful. he doesn’t need to throw over 100 just cause he’s a horse.
My bad for calling the game over you guys
i am a complete dumbass.
please forgive a brotha, and i’ll give you all free popeyes
Hell yeah! haha
first you give then I forgive
Um, where? I’m there. What’s the code word?
i got me some coupons in the mail
as soon as i hit up a scanner, i’ll put a scan of it up on here for you guys to use
batista = 2001 WS flashback
My boy NEIL MEDCHILL homers!!!!!
cervi’s luck has ran out?
What’s this move by Wakumatsu? Doesn’t make a whole hill of sense.
johnny d HR?
no
Let’s see how CC comes out this inning before everyone gets all crazy.
i’m not gonna get crazy if he keeps CC in, i just think joe g should hand this game to his beastly pen
My thoughts exactly…
What’s the point in running him out there when he’s not effective?
Mariners are killin the ball off CC. Maybe Arod’s tipping the pitches. =)
Nope, it’s totally Jorge’s fault for calling bad pitches.
Jesus Christ they are TATTOOING Sabathia.
ok now Hughes time
yea Drew, sorry, but you were just wrong about leaving CC in.
lol. not many aces are taken out after 90 pitches after a 9 pitch inning. It’s happened, just not often.
Nope, but how about this? Take him out after he had a great inning after getting knocked around all night instead of making him throw more pitches in a game he’s losing when there are two guys who need work?
Eh, the two have nothing to do with eachother IMO (great inning and being knocked around, it’s not like he needs confidence).
C’mon Carsten Charles!! Prove me right please!
Wait….is that seriously why they didn’t IBB Jeter?
that can’t be true
although…it is the mets
What was the reason they gave? I missed it.
CC – among other things – gets paid to give the Yankees length. I trust our bullpen… but I’d rather not have to trust them for four innings.
i don’t care how bad your team his, there’s just no reason to trot out a guy(Cedeno) thats OPSing 452 everyday. I almost feel bad for the M’s lineup(excluding this game) and for their fans who actually think they have a chance to make the playoffs.
their lineup is worlds better than the mets
true, but it’ll be a lot better once (or if) they get healthy.
the mets lineup is a AAA team with 2 major leaguers
I could weep for them.
cmon CC, K branyon AGAIN!
that was strike 3.
nah he checked
No, that was.
Let’s go Yankees!!!
i have a bad feeling. branyan is due
due to get bailed out by the umpire
I hate 3-2 counts with 2 outs and runners on base.
How does CC NOT GET THAT CALL ???
Boo!
HOW THE HELL WAS THAT NOT STRIKE 3!!!???!!!
that was fuckin strike 3 on gameday!!!!
And NOW Joe makes the pitching change…
who’s in?
Strike 3? Anyone? Anyone???
Where was tht pitch?
