Yankees now up 6-2

[jacksonianmarch]

Dustin Moseley has been a breath of fresh air for this rotation. Really reminds me of Aaron Small from 2005. 88-90mph, nothing straight and he's locating better than he ever has in his career.

[jacksonianmarch]

and Don Kelly makes me eat my words. 6-4, f***

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Another home run haha. Come on Tigers hit some more!

what are you talking about? he sucks. he came into this game he had a 4.50 era and a 1.46 whip as a starter and he's given up 4 runs in less than 5 innings against one of the worst offenses in the al

[jacksonianmarch]

Almost all of that WHIP and ERA is from his last start. Prior to the homer from Kelly, he'd been pitching pretty well.

[jacksonianmarch]

Long fixed Grandy's swing and it's showing. If he keeps showing up like this, we're gonna be really, really happy

[Yaz Sideburn]

chamberlain in for the 6th. this could get ugly

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

I was looking foward to Cabrera knocking another one out the park.

[Yaz Sideburn]

wow, joba got out of it

[jacksonianmarch]

He hung one slider that inning which he paid for. Otherwise, his velocity was down, but his location was very good

mosley is good other than his last start, gardner is doing well for a guy who's slumping and joba looked good other than the extra base hit and the velocity

 

i'm starting to see a pattern

[jacksonianmarch]

Yeah, the pattern is that we'll just continue winning and you can continue sitting many games back

[a700hitter]

Wood throwing like a stud, but he hangs a freakin curve. What a dope! Yanks have this in the bag. This is just a tease.

[jacksonianmarch]

I dont get it. He's absolutely beating Jackson with the FB then goes to the curve

[a700hitter]

Jorge!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Bases loaded. Where's Cabrera when you need him.

[Yaz Sideburn]

just keep winning? aren't the yankees .500 on the month?

[jacksonianmarch]

Exactly. I have always lived with Jorge's defensive shortcomings because his offense makes up for it. But his pitch selection has been more abysmal this season than usual

[jacksonianmarch]

This Yankee bullpen has been dominant of late. Good timing, especially with Kerry Wood looking as good as he has.

wood's been pretty lucky. he has a 1.45 whip and a 1.08 era since the trade

He's throwing very hard.

[a700hitter]

We didn't need Wood. We have Wakefield in our pen. He is very versatile. He has been sucking in every role this season.

[jacksonianmarch]

He's missing bats as well as the strike zone. I dont remember him cutting and running his FB, but he did it pretty well in that last AB

i wonder if they'll decline his option next year. it could be the end of an era

[Yaz Sideburn]

He's missing bats as well as the strike zone.

 

so basically he's like joba?

[jacksonianmarch]

He's on a 2 yr deal right now, this is yr 1 of that deal.

[jacksonianmarch]

so basically he's like joba?

 

Joba has done a pretty good job of finding the bats this yr, until lately that is

[a700hitter]

The era is over. The checks just haven't stopped yet.
