10/8: Cleveland @ New York

[a700hitter]

Yankee relief gets pretty thin from here on with Joba out tonight.

or even with Joba. He didn't look too good last night.

[riverside sluggers]

Wang and Beckett are different kinds of pitchers. beckett has the stuff to dominate one game. But over a full season' date=' who do I take? its tough cause Beckett may just be having a career yr right now or he could be an ace for life. Who knows. One thing I know about Wang is that the guy will still throw 200 innings a yr and have an ERA at or below 4. Unfortunately, that doesnt do s*** when you need an acelike performance with our backs against the wall, yet we get this s***.[/quote']

 

Sorry to burst your bubble but I dont think Beckett will be reverting back to his 2006 self anytime soon. The guy is 27 years old and can only build from this solid campaign

[jacksonianmarch]

But you cannot say that for certain. Beckett was out of his mind this yr. It would be hard to improve on what he was this season.

[jacksonianmarch]

HAHAHAHAHA. They are chanting Paul O'Neill in the stands. If only...

and you can not say that he will go back to his 2006 self...you're just hoping.

[jacksonianmarch]

I think we both are. We truly have no idea what pitcher he will be.

I didnt say he was going to be an even better pitcher than he was this year. Its not out of this world for me to expect consistent 15-20 W, 3.5 - 4 ERA type of seasons

I expect those same numbers out of Wang. See, my point isnt that Wang is better than Beckett or anything. Just that Beckett is the guy I'd go with if I needed one game (ie ace) and I'd have a tough time deciding who I'd want for a full regular season.

[das11209]

Villone does his job of getting Haffner out. 12 more outs to go for Cleveland.

[YAZMAN]

whaddya say yaz old boy

Tell TMW I was asking for him.

[a700hitter]

Get Sabathia up. Byrd's wings are ready to fall off.

[schillingouttheks]

And into the Guardians' bullpen we go.

Yeah, that's why you should be working with Cashman, lol.

[jacksonianmarch]

Yeah' date=' that's why you should be working with Cashman, lol.[/quote']

 

By the end of next season, Joba might be our ace.

It will be interesting to see if he can keep it up for 7+ innings.

[a700hitter]

Wedge will watch this game slip slide away.

[das11209]

Come on Cleveland - finish it off - don't snooze at this time.

[das11209]

Need another clutch double play from Captain here.

[a700hitter]

It's only a matter of time. The Guardians will be facing a deficit by the top of the 8th. Wedge should be given a wedgie by the Indian fans. He's tossing away a golden opportunity for his team. *******.

[jacksonianmarch]

its called bringing up your spirits for the reverse cockpunch.

[a700hitter]

Warm up the big lefty you idiot!!

What exactly is he doing wrong? Perez was one of the reliable arms that he could go to. He should have Sabathia in the bullpen warming up, though.

I love how you're always ready for it.

[Cocos Disciples]

There's nothing I love more than seeing Jeter's parents a half dozen times.

[ORS]

Why was VMart even on the bag holding that slug on 1st? Easy DP if he's just near the bag.

[Cocos Disciples]

CAP'N CLUTCH DOES IT AGAIN!

[ORS]

Room service from El Capitan.

[/quote']He needs to put these guys away tonight. Although CC is on short rest, he can give him a strong 3 and close this out. If it doesn't work, he's got Carmona on full rest for game 5. He got lucky there.

[schillingouttheks]

For some reason it's even sweeter when it's El Capitan who grounds into the DP.

Oh, if that's all you mean, then I agree with you.

[yankeessuck013]

Captain Clutch/ Mr. October? ..... Nope.
