New York Yankee 2007 Post Season Thread

[stickyfingers]

i thought you caught a beating at the horse track and never came back!

I don't take beatings, I give 'em...Ask Tom's wall if you want to find out.

[spoon]

Yah Kev, very original. You make HHH look like a comedic genius! Oh and who in their right mind had the Jays going to the playoffs vs. Boston and NYY? Not me, but I continue to support my team baby!

And if only you had Alex on the team right now, you may have more then 3 hits right now and a salary under 10 million!

[mdr55]

So sticky......how bout dem Mets!!!!


Posting back on a Yankee thread. WTF???

[zildjian361]

Bring that shit MO :smoke::drunk::tongue:

I don't take beatings, I give 'em...Ask Tom's wall if you want to find out.

Great moment in poker history! I loved it and who is Tom to complain? He fucked the wall hole for weeks after it happened. And for once he only got scrapes on his junk, not a plethora of VD with a side of shame.

[mdr55]

Let's Go Yankees!!!!!!:clap:

[Bulldogcakes]

Mo's already thrown 38 pitches. I can't kill Joe for this.

u at dennys?

[stickyfingers]

managers are such pussies...squeezes work more often than a guy gets a hit...look back at how many times they could have tried a squeeze tonight with a man on 3rd and less than 2 outs...i know this time they could've had a force at home but i am just fed up with it...and this is all a result of how i feel about my team's manager, Willie, but i am shocked to see how little that play is used. The mets would've been in the playoffs if that idiot would call a squeeze in a tight game every now and then.

[spoon]

Pressue!

Yahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

FIRE TORRE!!!!!!

Is it too soon to start the off season thread?

[TheGameHHH]

man, sometimes its so difficult to predict the Yankees

[mdr55]

Whoppee. It's only 2 games. Yanks in 6.:ohmy:

[King Hippos Bandaid]

damn it, I don't want to lose another $20, i guaranteed the Yanks would beat the Injuns then lose to Bahston

I still have faith the yanks can win in 5

Angels on the board down 1-2 now.

[Bulldogcakes]

The pivotal game in our season was decided by a swarm of gnats. Unbelievable.

And our elimination now rests in the hands of 45 year old Roger Clemens. Who hasn't pitched in 3 weeks.

Get me the big knife.

Clemens can do it! (he's a former Red Sox player, after all).

Seriously, I said it in 2004, and I'll say it again..theres a reason the remaining 3 games exist.

It wont be Fall without our annual meeting, so Im not giving up yous guys.

If this team doesn't hit then we're done. Blame it on bugs or Viz but in the end the bats are pathetic right now. Abreu on 2nd, A-rod hits a double, Mo closes it out, Yankees win 2-1, thats how it had to be in the 9th. What happens? Strikeout. :thumbdown:

[Tenbatsuzen]

I'm not closing the door on A-Rod yet, but if he doesn't turn this around, get ready for some catharsis on an epic level.

[mdr55]

A-Rod. Best Player in Baseball!!!!*














*in the regular season

[joeyballsack]

I can't believe how quick you guys turn on ARod. How about giving some credit to the two 19 game winners that he has faced the last two days?

Go ahead and run the best player of our generation out of town and Boston fans will forever be grateful.

i dont think anybody is "running him out of town" half the people that are criticizing A-rod in this thread aren't Yankee fans. they're simply mocking him.

i am not sure it is so quickly when you consider this is stretching back a few post seasons with the Yanks.

Also, granted they are two 19 game winners, but to not even muster 1 hit in 2 games is not what you expect from an all star caliber player.

compare him to big papi who has gotten huge hits in playoff games against mariano, a HOF closer.

I think the Yanks take the next 2 game in style, with Wang pitching at home in Game 4, and then Andy Pettite wins game 5.

And if Jeter hit a solo shot before that they win too. I love how it's just Arod, bc it's easy to blame him again. How many hits total?

Carmona was dealing all night, he made one bad pitch to Melky and paid for it. But nobody was hitting after the 7th when the bugs showed up. It affected the hitters and pitchers.

Don't forget the way the rally happened. It wasn't a rally at all. It was a walk and two wild pitches by a guy who's had pinpoint control all year.

It was the bugs. They affect some people more than others.

[Bulldogcakes]

Torre didn't have a bad night (not nearly as bad as the previous) but here's my one gripe.

How the fuck do you walk the bases loaded when the guy standing on 3rd got there on a walk? I understand that Viz is a ground ball pitcher and you're looking for the force, but you're also pinning his back to the wall. I doubt Hafner gets that pitch if it wasn't a 3-2 count and Viz had no other choice. When a pitcher walks the leadoff hitter I can't intentionally walk the bases loaded in that spot. I can't trust that pitcher at that point.

[underdog]

I can't believe how quick you guys turn on ARod. How about giving some credit to the two 19 game winners that he has faced the last two days?

A-Rod is ZERO for his last 18 in the playoffs, and has only four hits in his last 47 at bats in the playoffs.

Exactly, yankee fans are the reason I hate being a yankee fan.

i am not sure it is so quickly when you consider this is stretching back a few post seasons with the Yanks.

Also, granted they are two 19 game winners, but to not even muster 1 hit in 2 games is not what you expect from an all star caliber player.

I think the Yanks take the next 2 game in style, with Wang pitching at home in Game 4, and then Andy Pettite wins game 5.

If it wasnt for ARod the ankees wouldnt have made the playoffs. Im so tired of ARod bashing like he is the only bat in the line up. There are 8 other guys. ARod got them there and if he has a bad postseason then the rest of the team needs to pick up the slack. I bet if the yanks win the world series (prob not going to happen) After its all said an done it will just make yankee fans love jeter even more. But ARod gets no credit for carrying this whole team on his back all year. How about blaming the rest of the team for doing nothing?

And if Jeter hit a solo shot before that they win too. I love how it's just Arod, bc it's easy to blame him again. How many hits total?

Come on spoon, these people can only remember the good about Jeter, he does no wrong. When he doesnt get a hit its just that. Not everyone can bat 1000. I hope ARod leaves he deserves so much better fan support. He will probably go down as the best player ever (top 3-5 atleast) when his career is over. His playoff #'s are good for his career they just arent good with the yanks. But then again no one on the team has done well since the collapse after game 3 in the 2004 ALCS.

[JimBeam]

I was thinking the same thing.

Didnt Jeter go 1 for 4 w/ 2 Ks ?

Oh I forgot he got a huge hit back in 1998 so that should matter now.

All this talk about the Yankees not being able to win anymore because they don't have the core players they used to have when they won baffles me.

All we get reminded about is Posada, Jeter, and Rivera and what they mean to the team yet they've been a constant in the failure to win it all for longer than A-Rod.

It's fine if you want the previous 4 titles to still be relevant but realize that they aren't and every year is something new.

[ChrisTheCop]

http://espn-i.starwave.com/media/apphoto/bb6fa0c2-95ed-43fc-b3a0-138cc4705b93.jpg

"Is that a bug or are you just happy to see me?"

I knew I wasnt the only one to notice that. Guys were spraying eachothers hats, shoulders and arms, Arod was spraying umpires and players crotches and asses. Cmon man, you know people talk about ya, man up!

[A.J.]

Remember 2001 against the A's?

Coming back to the Stadium to face the weaker part of the Cleveland rotation may not be so bad for you guys.

[JimBeam]

You really can't say it's over yet but the Yankees are also going to pitch Clemens and possibly Mussina ( although I think I heard they now may go w/ Wang in a game 4 but does that make sense ? I mean the guy just giot pasted so how's he gonna do on 3 days rest ? ) and again w/out living in the past these guys aren't exactly scaring anybody these days.

[JPMNICK]

Remember 2001 against the A's?

I agree. Maybe a nice homecoming is exactly what they need.

[Tenbatsuzen]

Here's the thing so all of you non-Yankee fans can understand.

Jeter's past performance does give him clemency when it comes to this team. However, A-Rod, who is supposedly in a walk year and all we've been hearing from his PR team (boras) is how he's worth so much more than the 25 million he's making right now.

Yes, we wouldn't be in the playoffs it wasn't for A-Rod.

But right now, it's put up or shut up time.

[spoon]

Carmona was dealing all night, he made one bad pitch to Melky and paid for it. But nobody was hitting after the 7th when the bugs showed up. It affected the hitters and pitchers.

Don't forget the way the rally happened. It wasn't a rally at all. It was a walk and two wild pitches by a guy who's had pinpoint control all year.

It was the bugs. They affect some people more than others.

So sad! A rally that results in a tying run is a rally no matter how it happens. And I can cite 100 similar situations like that which helped the yankees win games or any other team. You mean a walk and two wild pitches is a bad thing? Oh you mean it should never happen to a rookie who throws hard in his first ever playoff series. Good point, he has a long history of playing in the MLB! I think there were bugs involved with Glavine bc he never pitches like that in the first inning over a truly long career. Great logic! Love it!

U never fail to dissapoint! On another note, did someone log in as Kevin and post something that made sense in which he used reason and wasn't a homer. Fucking A, that's sign #2...the world is doomed!

[Kevin]

Nope again nick. One game left, that's it.


I cant wait until we come back and win these next 3 games and go on to win the world series.. Because that means you will pull a Bob Hussler and disappear for like a month.. and it will be a great vacation... But we will get you no matter when you come out of hiding.. This goes for all you other Yankee haters.

[JPMNICK]

for some reason today i am much less upset than i was after game 1. I really think they have a good chance to take the next 2 at home, and then come back and win game 5.

and I think Phil Hughes plays a big part in it somewhere along the way

I WANT AN INVESTIGATION ON THE ANTI AMERICAN INDIAN ANTI YANKEE BUGS IN CLEVELAND..... NOW!!

[spoon]

"But nobody was hitting after the 7th when the bugs showed up. It affected the hitters and pitchers. "


If it did or didn't, it was like the weather and effected both teams the same. And the Indians should have won this game way before the 11th with all the opps they had/created. The yanks managed 3 damn hits in 11 innings! I think Kev's point is valid, and BDC's is retarded.

Anyone else hear Mad Dog go nuts on yank fans this morning!? It was hilarious! They all sounded like BDC and he wasn't having it! It was classic Dog without Mike with him. Yet I give credit to Mike for telling him the same thing Kev said earlier. Holy fuck is it tough for me to ref Kevin as the voice of reason! Are you happy now Kev!?

Its such an asinine excuse when the opponent when in the very next inn with the same amount of bugs flying over his was and pitched an easy 1 2 3 inn.. I would have said if he struggled and got out of it, then yea it was the bugs... Maybe Yankee fans should start a THEY GAVE US FAKE BUG SPRAY excuse.. Yea... thats it.. FAKE BUG SPRAY!! They gave Yankees spray that made you sweat more.. They had that lying around just in case Oct games in the 8th in fucking Cleveland were 80 degrees.. I WANT AN INVESTIGATION!!!

[spoon]

Basically the yankees suffer the CURSE OF RonFez.net! Since the board has begun, the yanks have ended the season in defeat! So Kev, what are you basing your claim that I'll run and hide!? It hasn't even/ever happened since the board has existed, so suck it. I would never hide, I'd probably get banned though bc I would be an angry mofo!

If they mention about the ghosts coming out to help the Yanks win or the stupid squirrel.......they deserve to fucking lose! STOP hoping for a victory and just go out there and perform. Yanks have TOO much talent to depend on ghosts, rally squirrels and that type of shit.

[Bulldogcakes]

for some reason today i am much less upset than i was after game 1. I really think they have a good chance to take the next 2 at home, and then come back and win game 5.

and I think Phil Hughes plays a big part in it somewhere along the way

I feel the same way, and I think most Yankee fans do. The only time Clemens was really bad this year was when his elbow was inflamed, and he's had the cortisone shot. He had a long layoff twice before (once for suspension, other for elbow) and was sharp each time he came back. You figure Clemens will be good today, and if he is they have a great shot vs Westbrook.

Tomorrow's game is a better match up with Wang vs Byrd. The Yankees kill Byrd on a regular basis, Wang is very good at home. Then you go back to Cleveland with Pettite vs Sabathia. The pressure would be squarely on the Tribe then. The Yanks will have staved off elimination twice, the Tribe will have blown a big series lead. Then we will see if they get tight in a big spot. I'd like their chances even more in that final game. Plus Sabathia showed signs of letting pressure get to him in Game 1, he was overthrowing badly in the first few innings. The Yanks compiled that 1-7 regular season against him record with patience, fouling off pitches and doing everything they can to frustrate him. They've always smelled blood when he pitches, and I think they will get to him.

If they lose today, tip your cap to the Tribe. They're a MUCH better team than any of us realized. 2 terrific starters, great bullpen and a good lineup. You can win it all with that.

[sailor]

clemens has never been a big game pitcher. he gets a pass a-rod would kill for.

[Bulldogcakes]

clemens has never been a big game pitcher. he gets a pass a-rod would kill for.

He doesn't have to be great. 6 IP and 3 runs will be fine. Westbrook has pitched twice (http://sports-ak.espn.go.com/mlb/teams/pitching?team=cle&split=10&seasonType=2&season=2007) vs the Yanks this year, and given up 12 ER in 8.2 IP. They kill him, and Byrd's number are worse.

I'd give you Clemens reg season head to head stats, but there aren't any.

For anyone listening to Francesa, here's the article he just referenced.

The Boss to Torre: Win or else (http://www.northjersey.com/page.php?qstr=eXJpcnk3ZjczN2Y3dnFlZUVFeXkxMTMmZmdi ZWw3Zjd2cWVlRUV5eTcyMDQ5NzEmeXJpcnk3ZjcxN2Y3dnFlZU VFeXk2)

Joe Torre's 12-year run as manager of the Yankees will likely end if his team does not rally to beat the Cleveland Indians in the AL Division Series, George Steinbrenner told The Record on Saturday night.

"His job is on the line," the Yankees' owner said in a phone interview. "I think we're paying him a lot of money. He's the highest-paid manager in baseball, so I don't think we'd take him back if we don't win this series."

No surprise to me.

[lleeder]

The Boss Is Back:clap:

and if the Yankees lose he's got something for Joe :banning:

[Bulldogcakes]

ooooooooh! I just dug up a lil nugget! (http://www.thejournalnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071007/SPORTS01/710070383/1108)

Marlins pitching coach Rick Kranitz turned down an offer to return. He came in with Girardi and could be setting himself up to rejoin his old boss.

Hmmmmmm . . . very interesting. I'm hoping Girardi's the front runner. Maybe he knows something we don't.

[lleeder]

Thats not really a dug up nugget. They said it during the series with the Mets last week a couple of times.

No surprise to me.

In the same article he also said this in regards to A-rod: “I think we’ll re-sign him. I think he’s going to have a good run the rest of the (postseason). I think he realizes New York is the place to be, the place to play. A lot of this (postseason) is laying on his shoulders, you know, but I think he’s up to it.”

Just remember to have fun out there today, and if you lose, I'll kill you!

Words to live by.

Hey Yankees! If You All Love Torre So Much Then Go Out And Win This Series For Him! If Not, We'll Know How You Really Feel.

27 pitches in the first? Any predictions as to how many innings Rog will go?

I say 4, then Mussina comes in goes 3, then Joba, then Mariano

[Snoogans]

I say 4, then Mussina comes in goes 3, then Joba, then Mariano

if that happens cross off the last 2 cause you will be down 14

[Kevin]

Nice start by the cap.. Fuck up the top and bottom of the 1st inn..

[Bulldogcakes]

27 pitches in the first? Any predictions as to how many innings Rog will go?

Hopefully Torre will throw out the pitch counter and leave him in as long as he's effective. 6 will be plenty. I'm hopeful they'll score plenty of runs tonight vs Westbrook so it won't matter too much.

I can't believe Torre left Matsui in the lineup. I don't care what his #'s are vs Westbrook, he's swinging the bat lousy lately.

[scottinnj]

Cleveland didn't give Clemens much of a rest.

[lleeder]

2 Yankee killers back to back. Lofton and Nixon:flush:

[lleeder]

He always hurts us :wallbash:

[sailor]

He always hurts us :wallbash:

clemens in the post-season? i warned y'all.

[mikeyboy]

I was only half listening, but did they just say that the Yankees had 4 runs on 3 solo home runs? Um, what?

[Bulldogcakes]

We'll find out what this team is made of. They should be able to do some damage with Westbrook on the mound.

[Bulldogcakes]

I was only half listening, but did they just say that the Yankees had 4 runs on 3 solo home runs? Um, what?

For the series. Melky in game 2. Damon and Cano in Game 1.
They were likely talking about the trouble the Yanks have had scoring runs lately. They faced 2 great pitchers, so I think its being overplayed. If they can't score tonight, no excuses.

[scottinnj]

It's fun watching Bobby Abreu watch a ball leave the park. He left Philadelphia for NY, and how did that turn out? 16 HRs this year. How much do you pay him? Us Phillies fans would like to say "thanks" for getting us out from under that contract.

[mikeyboy]

For the series. Melky in game 2. Damon and Cano in Game 1.

The way it was stated it made it sound like the Yankees scored 4 runs with 3 solo home runs, which doesn't make a lot of sense.

Go wave your rally towel at an Eagles game cause your seasons over.

[lleeder]

Their not big on making sense on this channel. They spend all this money for the Playoffs and only push one show??? :wacko:

[sailor]

yeah, just 4 total runs so far, of which 3 of those runs were on solo homers.

[spoon]

Love the constant homer calls in terms of scoring doesn't stop in the playoffs. That Jeter throw was a fucking error hands down. He had at least 15 at bats where he the opposing team's fielder fucks up and they rule it a hit for him. Anyway to help his stats baby!

[Bulldogcakes]

Lets Go A-rod!!!!

[spoon]

Hey Yankees! If You All Love Torre So Much Then Go Out And Win This Series For Him! If Not, We'll Know How You Really Feel.

That's fucking stupid!

[Bulldogcakes]

Wow, Posada has been awful. Almost as bad as Matsui.

[scottinnj]

Go wave your rally towel at an Eagles game cause your seasons over.

Soon yours will be too. And only at 3 games. So you're dumb Yankees will do no better then my Phillies. Except they get paid twice as much for choking just as hard.

[mikeyboy]

Their not big on making sense on this channel. They spend all this money for the Playoffs and only push one show??? :wacko:

When does that Frank show start anyway? Ugh.

Caliendo is such a one-trick pony. I can't see him being able to maintain a show. Remember his first appearance on O&A when he killed? By his second appearance he was tapped, so he just re-used the same shit and sucked.

[lleeder]

Now here's a guy who has a limited amount of material. Boom.

[spoon]

Their not big on making sense on this channel. They spend all this money for the Playoffs and only push one show??? :wacko:

You mean like when Joe Buck screamed, "And here come the yankees!" after Arod got a fucking single (his first of the series)!!

Yah, how'd that work out!?

[spoon]

Caliendo is such a one-trick pony. I can't see him being able to maintain a show. Remember his first appearance on O&A when he killed? By his second appearance he was tapped, so he just re-used the same shit and sucked.

Caliendo is my friend, I love his show and he's going through some shit right now so back off!

[spoon]

I blame this Indian lead on the bugs.

[lleeder]

You're is a contraction of you are. It does not fit in the sentance you wrote. That would make you the dumb one sir.

[scottinnj]

If I were Frank, I'd take the money and run.

[Bulldogcakes]

Clemens velocity is down already. That last fastball was 90 MPH.

Hughes is warming up. Good.

[scottinnj]

You're is a contraction of you are. It does not fit in the sentance you wrote. That would make you the dumb one sir.

You're still losing.

[BoondockSaint]

You're is a contraction of you are. It does not fit in the sentence you wrote. That would make you the dumb one, sir.


That's better.

[scottinnj]

And it's sentence, not sentance.

But I appreciate the grammar lesson. I hate mistakes too.

[Bulldogcakes]

That's better.

You can't make this shit up. :laugh:

[spoon]

It's not his fault he never got that package from Florida. Funny thing is, neither did the "giambino".

[Snoogans]

Every Big Game He Gets Hurt


Hahahahahahaha

[lleeder]

They need to bring in Wang

[mikeyboy]

Ok. Who had 2 and 1/3?

[BoondockSaint]

2 and 2/3

Damn! So close.

[sailor]

2 and 2/3

close. he's so not clutch.

[spoon]

Let's be easy on Lleeder, he was so drunk he didn't even make it out to the 9 last night! Bastard!!!

Oh and he seems a little tense right now. Personally, I loved YOUR SENTENCE structure. And Scott, YOU'RE making me laugh my ballz off. That's right, ballz ()().

[Bossanova]

I knew he wasn't going to do shit tonight

[lleeder]

That's better.

He needed help from you to get that. :drunk:

Lleeder's cool as hell with me. It's unfortunate he is the Yankees fan that has posts begging to get thrown under the bus.

[spoon]

Gywnn looks like Grimace! Man I can't believe he got even fatter.

[mdr55]

Nice if the Yankee fans to give Clemens a standing ovation. I heard it over the radio a few minutes ago.:clap:

[Bulldogcakes]

I'll give Torre credit for this. At least he went with Hughes over Mussina. Hughes might not be any good, but Mussina is almost guaranteed to be bad.

Wow. Not exactly the way we imagined this game going. Still, it doesn't matter. No excuses. Win or go home.

[lleeder]

Gywnn looks like Grimace! Man I can't believe he got even fatter.

And he sounds like he wants to be a shrimp boat captain.

[Bulldogcakes]

Even if the Yanks get past this series, you have to figure they do it w/o Clemens. So I guess Hughes is now the 3rd starter from here on out.

[Bulldogcakes]

Fuck. Need to keep this close.

[BoondockSaint]

And he sounds like he wants to be a shrimp boat captain.

Bubba Gwynn?

[Bulldogcakes]

Bubba Gwynn?

Jabba the Gywnn?

[spoon]

And he sounds like he wants to be a shrimp boat captain.

Cajun shrimp, popcorn shrimp, jeter shrimp....

[scottinnj]

I hope A-Rod shoots an A-bomb from his A-hole.

[lleeder]

I hope A-Rod shoots an A-bomb from his A-hole.

Thats gay and he's not even up this inning.

[BoondockSaint]

As fat as Gwynn has gotten I bet he could go out there and go 2 for 4.

[spoon]

Where did the funny go?

[scottinnj]

Gay, yet funny.

I like to make myself laugh.

[spoon]

I hope A-Rod shoots an A-bomb from his A-hole.

Thats gay and he's not even up this inning.

Yep, that's what I was responding to as well.

[Snoogans]

I hope ARod goes 4 for 4 with a HR and 4 RBI's and the yankees lose
and he says fuck you and leaves

[scottinnj]

I hope ARod goes 4 for 4 with a HR and 4 RBI's and the yankees lose

Oh wouldn't that be Wonderful?

[Bulldogcakes]

I hope ARod goes 4 for 4 with a HR and 4 RBI's and the yankees lose and he says fuck you and leaves and signs with my Red Sox. So he can choke for us in the playoffs

Why on earth would you want that?

[scottinnj]

Yankees offense a 2-liter bottle of soda.

Now that's color commentary at its best.

[Snoogans]

the sox cant afford him while drew and lugo are currently stealing from us

[lleeder]

Where did the funny go?

Scottinnj's humor is like the Phillies, once you believe in it it lets you down.

[scottinnj]

Uh-Oh. He looked out to me.

[BoondockSaint]

Stupid. Why would you throw to third?

[scottinnj]

Scottinnj's humor is like the Phillies, once you believe in it it lets you down.

YES! Now that's Funny!

[Bulldogcakes]

Damon!

[Bulldogcakes]

Stupid. Why would you throw to third?

Thats called trying too hard. I thought we would see a lot of it this series, so far thats the first time.

[Bulldogcakes]

Wow is Jeter coming up small.

[scottinnj]

Jeter is a Sesame Street muppet.


Ha! Double play!

[Snoogans]

way to go captain

[mikeyboy]

Wow is Jeter coming up small.

Not the best game for him so far.

[Bulldogcakes]

Jeter secretly wants Torre to be fired. He just can't come out and admit it.

[scottinnj]

Abreu will lead off next time the Yankees are up. Just put an out in your scorecard now to keep up.

[Snoogans]

he wants torre fired cause torre hates blacks

[lleeder]

I can't wait to hear the calls on the Fan. "Torre should have pinch hit Betemit for Jeter". You know they'll be saying wacky shit like that.

[Snoogans]

i love those, i cant wait to hear how you guys are gonna steal santana on WFAN tomorrow

[lleeder]

i love those, i cant wait to hear how you guys are gonna steal santana on WFAN tomorrow

It will go like this " The Yankees should trade Kei Igawa and prospects for Santana" :lol:

[scottinnj]

How will Abreu get his out? I can't wait to find out!

[joeyballsack]

I like it better when the crowd reaction shots are good looking people.

[Snoogans]

i like the 7 pieces of garbage for 2 superstars trades

[Bulldogcakes]

It will go like this " The Yankees should trade Kei Igawa and prospects for Santana" :lol:

I'll throw in Pavano.

And that will be more throwing than Pavano has done in years.

[lleeder]

Before Hughes came up, weren't there alot of people saying he was like Clemens. Now he's taking over for him in the game and in the rotation. Kinda symbolic

"Yeah . . . thats like cosmic, dude"

[Bulldogcakes]

Westbrook is throwing belt high sinkers all night. The Yanks should be CRUSHING those pitches, mostly the other way. Instead, they're trying to pull everything.

Not good.

[lleeder]

That Sonic sandwich looks like dogshit.

[spoon]

Jeter secretly wants Torre to be fired. He just can't come out and admit it.

Oh yah? It seems he awfully fond of DPs! Ohhhhh! What a fag!

[Snoogans]

it looks more like a steak sandwich then frank caliendo looks like anyone else

[spoon]

Not the best seriesfor him so far.

Better!

[scottinnj]

This kid Hughes has a hell of an arm. 40 pitches, 26 strikes.

[Bulldogcakes]

Hughes is really dealing.

Would have been nice if he started this game, huh?

[Bulldogcakes]

Oh yah? It seems he awfully fond of DPs! Ohhhhh! What a fag!

First time you made me laugh all night! Nice work!

[BoondockSaint]

Fox Sports is reporting that Clemens hamstring injury stems from lifting so many bags of stolen money.

[scottinnj]

Hughes is really dealing.

No, I wish Clemens had stayed until the fourth inning. Why didn't Torre have a little faith? It's not like his job is on the line.....oh wait.

[spoon]

Buck and Gywnn are real assholes!

Did anyone catch the, "Who would have picked Colorado and Arizonza to win in the NL playoffs?!" Ah, anyone watching baseball outside of NY that's who. The Rockies are easily the hottest team in MLB and the were playing a team that needed a ton of help to even get in. While the D-backs usually own the Cubs, especially since they would have finished 3rd in almost any other division with the worst fielding and bottom of the league (MLB) stats in almost every offensive category.

Then they go on to say and I quote, "That'll be an interesting series, ONLY bc those two teams are very familiar with each other. They played against each other 18 times this season....there will be no secrets."

Wow, they know how to sell a series without the Cub's Curse or the Mets/Braves on TBS baby! What assholes!

[scottinnj]

Jake, your time is done on the mound. Get him out!

[Bulldogcakes]

Fox Sports is reporting that Clemens hamstring injury stems from lifting so many bags of stolen money.

Nice!

BTW-I'm sure you heard that the Yanks signed him for 28 mil, etc. You know how much they actually paid him? 14 mil. Still a lot, but shows how way off media reports can be.

[Bulldogcakes]

Mmmmmmmmmmmm

Wilbon and Kornheiser picked Cubs/Yanks and Phills/Yanks respectively.......both of them are outside of NY and are two of the most respected sports writers in the business. Please stop with your blind hatred. All you do is accuse people of being homers but then you make moronic statements like that.

[spoon]

Did you hear the announcers as they went to commercial!? He says, "And listen to that yankee crowd!" Too bad he said it as they were all but silent after the final out and then a few seconds after the comment the cheered. I found it hilarious!

Mister Hughes has arrived.

63 pitches, 43 for strikes. Let him go another inning or two if he can.

Every time I hear Tony Gwynn's voice, I want Rice pilaf.

That being said, I like TBS's graphics. Outside of the dumb "9 foot zone". But the announcers are horrific. Hello, Sterling and Waldman.
