your only chance is for a sweep.

 

What happened to the final nail in the coffin?

[jacksonianmarch]

There's realism and then there is wishing in a prayer. You still have a mathematical chance, but IMO, the nails are in the coffin and its being lowered into the ground

[jacksonianmarch]

f***ing Hughes. 2 f***ing walks with a f***ing 4 run lead. Cmon man

[yankees228]

Classic Hughes.

[jacksonianmarch]

f***in Hughes. What the f***

[yankees228]

This is realism. 4.5 games back with 45 games left. I remember that like it was yesterday. That was the day you said "final nail in the coffin". Now your telling me if the Rays get sweeped we have a chance? You confuse me.

[yankees228]

The Yankee School of Acting lol.

Who was it this time? I missed it.

Posada pretended to get hit in the foot. He wasn't as exaggerated as Jeter, but it worked all the same.

It's called math. Mathematically, the sox havent been eliminated yest.

[yankees228]

He just threw a 3-2 change to Joyce. Just terrible. Time to get Vazquez lose.

OK...So where does the final nail in the coffin come in?

[yankees228]

Get someone up Joe. This is looking like a typical Hughes' outing.

In my opinion, it's been in there for awhile. Mathematically, that comes in about 4-6 days

[yankees228]

Last thing Hughes needs right now is his defense to let him down. Hope that play at second doesn't cost him.

awhile in your eyes is like after the all star break.

[yankees228]

Please take him out.

[jacksonianmarch]

Pretty much once Youkilis went down.

[yankees228]

Well, as I feared, the Yankees' offense has seem to go away after the first.

 

This game is beginning to remind me of this game:

Nice job by Hughes, retiring the last seven batters. The last nine outs are going to tough, because I'm assuming Robertson, Wood, and Rivera are all unavailable. So no action in the Yankees' bullpen, which isn't surprising.

[jacksonianmarch]

25 pitches for Rivera last night. I doubt he is unavailable

[yankees228]

25 pitches for Rivera last night. I doubt he is unavailable

 

1. Girardi has given his relievers tons of rest recently.

2. Rivera having pitched three times in the last four days, and two days in a row.

 

I bet he's unavailable, but we'll see.

[yankees228]

Only explanation I can think of as to why he would bring in Vazquez to face the heart of the order with a runner already on base is that Joba is the closer tonight.

[jacksonianmarch]

Girardi has made it absolutely clear that he doesnt care about winning this game

[yankees228]

Girardi has made it absolutely clear that he doesnt care about winning this game

 

I don't think it's fair to get on him for this.

 

Rivera has pitched in three of the last four games, and has pitched in the last two. Robertson has pitched in three of the last four games, and in the last two. Wood has pitched in the last two. Considering those workloads, and the Yankees' place in the standings, I can't blame Joe for this.

[yankees228]

Lucky on a bunch of different fronts. Well placed hit, bad decision by Crawford to dive for it, and a bad decision by Pena to cut off the throw.

[yankees228]

And here comes Javy to let them back in the game.

[jacksonianmarch]

2 on nobody out, Javy on the mound. Where have I seen this before?

[jacksonianmarch]

why do I feel a fastball homer right here?
