9/26 @ NYY

What's funny is that he's claiming that Girardi is burning his players. It's pretty stupid of him to write then, when it's clear the only two games he has watched the Yankees play this month are the last two. Girardi has been sitting guys left and right the entire month, as if the Yankees have clinched. The lineup is he threw out there on Wednesday was absolutely ridiculous. It has pissed me off the way Girardi has managed, so it's actually really funny to hear Dan say those things.

 

What's also kind of funny is that, if you look at the two lineups from yesterday, the Red Sox sat two regulars while the Yankees sat one. Not an enormous difference.

 

EDIT: And Lowrie, but, offensively, he's not that much different than Gonzalez.

 

Lowrie can barely hit RH after the wrist injury.

We weren't winning the division even if we put all our heart and grittehness into it.

 

 

 

...The f***?

 

Drew usually only hits when we are very far ahead or very far behind, making his presence useless. It's not really his fault, but unfortunately, that's what happens more than occasionally. But I'd rather him than Baldelli, because you just never know, maybe he will actually hit with runners in scoring position for once.

A .290 average with the Red Sox and a .151 average with the Red Sox are practically the same thing?

Fair enough. But that wasn't even really my point.

Also, about the article, that is a pretty ridiculous statement about the 1978 team. When did he want Zimmer to rest his guys? When the team was behind for a large portion in September? It's unheard of to consistently rest players in July, even when you're leading the division.

The parts of the article that I was referring to dealt with the Red Sox. Don't care about what the NYY do, but Girardi got so much s*** after losing the first 8 games of the season to the Red Sox, he will do anything to win, even when the games don't matter.

I remember this argument. It was used for A-Rod.

 

Time to bring back the Drew avatar.

That avatar is fantastic.
