Highest paid pitcher in baseball and he can't even win a CY with the Yankee's

 

You'd kill to have him on your team.

 

It is April. His hallmark is giving innings and showing good location. He has shown solid stuff as evidenced by his 15K's in 12IP, but his location has been off. Walks and pitches into the middle of the plate. This wouldnt be his first s***** April with the team and it likely wont be his last.

Our 6 games in a nutshell

 

Game 1- Mo blows it

Game 2- Kuroda sucks, Girardi gives up, Yankees come back but not far enough

Game 3- Handled by Hellickson

Game 4- Nova owns, Yankees roll

Game 5- Bullpen throws 7.1IP scoreless, offense just good enough

Game 6- CC serviceable, pen shutdown again, offense comes through in the 10th.

I'm sure you've got your poster of A-Rod kissing himself in the mirror hanging from your wall, and a CC Sabathia "Eat big or go home" shirt on right now.

 

After all, you're the "eat fast food to lose weight" guy. ;)

At least we entered the event. And 2009 isnt too far into the distant past when we partied all the way through October!

 

BTW, was just looking through some stats. The Yankee pen has been on point thus far.

 

2.11ERA 21.1IP 33K 11BB 1.22WHIP 14K/9IP.

 

We obviously cannot continue to use the pen at this rate, but as CC and Kuroda go deeper into games, we should see them continue to dominate. I hope Phelps continues to stay in his role. I like his attitude and his stuff

No but I was thinking of getting a Mo fathead

Kuroda was pretty awesome today. Hope he goes out there for the 9th. Only 101 pitches.

 

I got to watch the first 4 innings. That was the Kuroda we saw in ST. Every pitch was on point, great movement and pinpoint location. I think he was a very underestimated acquisition

Time to move Hughes to the pen and phelps to the rotation

 

Girardi said this on Phelps “In the future is he a starter for us? Maybe. But in the immediate future that’s not what we’re looking for from him."

 

Once Pettitte is ready whoever is pitching the worst will be moved, they plan on bringing him in sometime next month.

He's the most obvious choice for demotion when pettitte or Pineda are ready. But I think he should be in the rotation until then. He reminds me of Tim Hudson. Fast worker, strike machine who works everything around a sick 2 seamer. I knew he had a good arsenal, but I was not aware of how good his 2 seamer was
