Someone sacrifice a f***ing chicken or something. Hit the f***ing ball!

[yankees228]

Javy doesn't have much tonight, and I don't think they're going to hit enough to support him.

[yankees228]

Javy seems incapable of getting a swing and miss tonight.

[jacksonianmarch]

He isnt locating anything. It happens. We just need him to go 6 innings so we dont see Chan Ho

Ohhhhh I get it

[jacksonianmarch]

The good thing is, we wont have to see Willis in the win column. We are getting owned by Blaine f***ing Boyer. Seriously, this guy sucks.

[jacksonianmarch]

Bitch tits makes another running blunder. Go back on the roids you f***

[yankees228]

Such a dumb team.

and we'll probably win, but we dont deserve it

It might be the Arizona bullpen, but I have absolutely no faith in this offense.

[jacksonianmarch]

tied this bitch up, 4-4

Yup, very happy about Gardner's AB, just hitting a grounder to second in that spot. It's what they haven't been able to do all year.

[jacksonianmarch]

Gardner has been a breath of fresh air on this team. And Granderson seems to be cracking his cold spell too

[jacksonianmarch]

DP Jeter at it again

[yankees228]

I really hate it when Joe tries to steal out against righties with Marte.

[yankees228]

Just awful, they have no business winning this game.

 

And now Joe lets Marte face Reynolds...

[yankees228]

Bad job by Swisher, but the 3-0 pitch wasn't even close. The HP umpire has been awful all night.

[yankees228]

Cervelli can't touch a guy like that. The bunt was the right call, yet Joe, who loves the bunt, lets Cervelli swing. You can't make some of this stuff up.

[yankees228]

I cannot believe they're going to bring in Boone Logan.

 

EDIT: Or not. Now Mo has to go through the heart of the order.

[yankees228]

Never seen a better pitcher at preventing runs from scoring with a runner at third and less than two outs.

[jacksonianmarch]

Mariano wanted to feel mortal for a second, then decided to return to being untouchable

[Divinity]

Last night was a good example of why Mo is the greatest reliever of all time, he's 40 years old, throws 40 pitches; loads the bases with no outs. Then gets a Pop Up, Pop Up, Strike Out. Truely Amazing

[yankees228]

I honestly can't imagine a worse manager than Joe Girardi. How many times does he have to see Park struggle in his second inning of work before he starts only pitching him one inning.

[jacksonianmarch]

Exactly. I noticed that of late. Park typically throws a good first inning, but always gets whalloped in the second. Not sure why he is missing that

[jacksonianmarch]

Bad AJ again. Like I said, just as we get ready to give up on him, he'll go on a 9 game run of absolute dominance. But getting lit up by the Dodgers is kinda embarassing

[Youk Of The Nation]

Yeah, because the Dodgers lineup is chock-full of terrible hitters. I mean, it's embarassing for Burnett to be pitching the way he has the last four or five starts, but I don't think it's any worse because it's the Dodgers. It's not like he got pulled in the fourth inning against the Orioles or the Pirates.

[jacksonianmarch]

I think it was the Os'. That's the thing about Burnett, though. It isnt about the team he is facing, ever. When he actually locates, nobody touches him. But his 2 seamer is running down the middle, his breaking pitches are either hanging or bouncing and his composure has been suck. He needs to pick it up

[Divinity]

Burnett is way too much of a streaky pitcher, when he's good he's great, when he's bad he's horrible.

 

AJ has lost five straight starts now and seen his ERA balloon from 3.28 on May 30 to 5.25 on Saturday

[ORS]

I forsee some practice on the fundamentals of fielding bunts for the Yankees in the near future.

Nothing new for Andy, fielding has always been an issue for him. The biggest play of this game is likely going to be his decision to throw to third, instead of to first. With the pitcher up, you get the sure out, and you get out of the inning only down a run. Unfortunately Andy chose to go to third, and it has opened the floodgates.
