2009 World Series: Phillies @ Yankees

[suns]

And this is relevant because?

 

Because he's doing great right now.

[Dipre]

Lol gayest hit ever by Werth.

[Dipre]

Because he's doing great right now.

 

He's a fantastic ballplayer. Best offensive 2B in the league right now. Anyone can slump through a short series. Stop that.

[yeszir]

Lee is a badass

[bsox0407]

Lee is a badass

 

that was f***ing sweet by lee.

[a700hitter]

Wow, that was nonchalant. He looked like he didn't care if he caught it.

[yankees228]

Once again Teixeira gets ahead, once against Teixeira gets out. He has epitomized the Yankees' struggles offensively this postseason.

if he drops it he will still get one of them.

[yankees228]

For a guy that people talk about as an MVP candidate, Teixeira is incredibly streaky.

[Christian Snyder]

Another shutout inning by Cliff Lee.

 

 

 

 

GO PHILLIES!!!!

Don't be so reactionary.

 

Without Tex, the Yanks don't even make the playoffs.

[Cocos Disciples]

CC didn't watch the world series in 07!! .

 

Well I didn't either.

 

And you're a Red Sox fan how?

[suns]

And you're a Red Sox fan how?

 

I don't really know.

[yankees228]

Pretty dumb to leave CC in here.

[Dipre]

Pedro Feliz needs to stop the suck.

[yankees228]

Don't be so reactionary.

 

Without Tex, the Yanks don't even make the playoffs.

 

I realize that, and I'm not being reactionary. I have said it the entire postseason. Teixeira is an excellent player, but, at least his year, he is incredibly streaky. That is an accurate observation.

Want me to make you a list of extremely streaky elite performers?

[yankees228]

Yankees pulling out all the stops tonight, going with the long version of God Bless America.

[yankees228]

Want me to make you a list of extremely streaky elite performers?

 

I made the point that he has been very streaky this year. It's a fact. It's hurting the Yankees right now. Why is there a reason to pursue this?

[yeszir]

Why is Sigourney Weaver singing this?

The bolded part is my point.

 

Whether he is or isn't streaky, he's still an elite performer and worthy MVP candidate.

 

A lot of the better players in the league are extremely streaky, and Ryan Howard, his counterpart for the Phillies, come to mind.

Fair enough. I should have left the MVP part out.

[Optimist]

Yankees...score runs...

[suns]

Another easy inning.

[yankees228]

They're not even going to get into the Phillies' bullpen.

 

EDIT: Unless they want to limit his pitch count because they feel that is necessary if they want to bring him back in game four.

[Dipre]

They're not even going to get into the Phillies' bullpen.

 

I'm begging the baseball Gods to let Lee go all the way.

[Christian Snyder]

Lee's 7th shutout inning!

 

 

 

 

GO PHILLIES!!!!

[yankees228]

I'm begging the baseball Gods to let Lee go all the way.

 

He's gone up over 120 pitches a number of different times this year. Unless the Yankees' bottom of the order really makes him work in 8th (not going to happen), I expect to see him going the distance.

Not so much because the Yankees lose, but because Jacko kept running his mouth about how much better equipped to go the distance CC is over Lee.

 

I immediately pointed out Lee's 6 CGs and 2 Sho's as opposed to CC's2 and 1, with his response being that Yankees work pitchers, something that anyone who knows anything about Phillie knows they do as well. Specially Rollins, Utley and Ibanez.

[ORS]

Hughes looks like he's channelling his inner Delcarmen.
