BWAHAHAHAHA!!!!

 

I stand by what I said earlier in the year, they're done. Move 'em to the AL Central, maybe they can compete with the Royals... wait, nevermind. Yankees suck. :lol:

I just think it's extremely funny. Before the year even started people were talking about how it would be another year of Yankee dominance. Now we all see that it is an old, run-down team that couldn't win a series against a below .500 team if their life depended on it.

I agree, it is f***ing hilarious... but faggot Yankee fans will bring this back and hold it against you whe... if they ever start winning... :D. They obviously dont suck, suck is like... expansion team, the Yankees are a level above that - BAD. Theyve got a great team on paper, they just cant put it together.

u guys should calm down...remember last year when you were something like 14 out in August and came back to make it a race for the division (which we won at least)....well we're not stuck with as big a deficit and we have more time to come back than you did...if you guys can do it in a month and a half then we can do it in 3+ months....theres still lots of ball to be played boys

"if you guys can do it in a month and a half then we can do it in 3+ months"

 

Not if you can't beat Tampa 6.5 times.

"I can see you taking the Wild Card. That's about it."

 

Wild Card. Wet Dream.

 

The only thing that will save the Yankees from finishing last in the division is that Tampa has 3 more series to go against the Red Sox.

 

Right now Alex Rodriguez is curled up in a fetal position with tears in his eyes.

we will turn this around, and we will come back

 

they can always talk the talk, but can't walk the walk, i bet gay- rod is home swimming in his pool full of cash......Like $200 million!!!!

The Sox also had a talented team when they came back from 3-0. I'll say it again, they're old and run down and through 74 games they are playing .500 baseball. They have no team chemistry, an owner keeps threatening anyone and everyone, how can they make a run?

I have to agree with you on the team chemistry, Tex.

 

I heard on roadgames the whole team goes their seperate ways for dinner or anything else after night.

 

Jeter has to step up and invite the whole 25 man roster out to dinner, maybe do something else fun. While at dinner, ask them what they believe is wrong with this team and ways to fix it.

 

Also getting a decent CF, and a starter wouldn't hurt...

 

Still alot more games to play though.

Posted

BTW-- YOu say the Yankees have an old team? But, if the numbers i'm looking at are right, the Sox are old too.

 

Your youngest guy is Kevin Youkilis at 26.

Our youngest guy is Robbie Cano at 22

 

Lets break it down position by position

 

Catcher

Tek is 33, Posada is 33

Backup Catcher

Mirabelli 34(soon to be 35), Flaherty 37(almost 38) -- This one i'll give u but slightly

3b - Mueller 34, Arod 29(soon to be 30)

SS- Edgar 29(soon to be 30), Jeter 31 today

2b- Belhorn 30(soon to be 31), Cano 22(Soon to be 23)

1b - Millar 33(soon to be 34), Giambi 34

LF- Manny 33, Matsui 31 -

CF Damon 31(32 soon), Bernie 37

RF Trot 31, Sheff 36 - Not trying to diss but better than Trot even at his age.

 

Starters

Schilling 39, Mussina 36

Clement 30(31 soon), Pavano 29

Wells 42, Johnson 41(42 soon)

Miller 28(almost 29) Wang 25

Arroyo 28, Wright 26 I believe. Wish he would come back soon btw

Wakefield 39, Brown 40

Pen

Foulke 32 almost 33, Mo 35

Timlin 39, Groom 38 almost 39

Embree 35, Sturtze 34

Mantei(Same bday as me btw)31, almost 32, Proctor 28

Myers 36 today(Happy bday), Quantril 36

Halama 33, Gordon 36

Since sox have no more pitchers, Stanton 38

 

Big papi - 29 almost 30

Youkilis 26

Olerud 36 almost 37

Vasquez 28 almost 29

 

Tino 37

Russ Johnson 32 (Will be sent down soon for Andy phillips who is 24 I believe.)

Womack 35 almost 36

 

So if you look at this, you could clearly see there's not that big of a difference between age on these two teams. They're pretty much mixed with both old and young. Sox have chemistry right now, Yanks don't. That's pretty much why you guys are in first and we're not. There's things that are going to have to be done in the Yankees organization for them to get back to where they want to be.

First off Yankees have the oldest average second of all the Yankees won't come back they don't have the pitching. RJ is good but hasn't been great, Mussina is good but definitly not great, Pavano sucks, Wright if he ever comes back sucks, Wang is too young and will burn out in the second half, and please god do not get me started on Kevin Brown.

 

Thier bats aren't all that great either. They have greta guys oat the top Jeter, A-rod, Sheff and half of the time Matsui, outside of that they struggle hitting, Giambi please, Posada been sucking all year, Canoe far too young he shouldn't be expected to hit, don't get me started on Womack, and Bernie is over the hill

 

The Defense isnat all that great either I shouldn't even have to explain just look at the plays Bernie Williams and Sheffield have screwed up outside of Jeter and A-Rod they have no gloves.

 

The Bullen is OK at best the only really strong part of the bullpen is Mariano. Tom Gordon has been good but proved last year he can't make it through the end of the season and will burn out in September. Quantrill sucks hes a Middle relief guy he's supposed to be able to not let ingerited guys score, last year he led the Majors in most inherited runners scored against. Sturtze has been good but is unreliable, Procter is terrible, Groom hads been ok but is old so I really don't see him lasting the season he also can't get righties out. Stanton is terrible

 

Bottom line looking at the Yankees entire team they are just not that good and like I've said 100 times before I see them winning 86 games this season and missing the playoffs.
