2013 Yankees in-game thread

Yeah that Mariners lineup is one tough lineup to get through

Good to see vintage Andy. The guy still can shut down opposing lineups.

Another great outing from Felix Hernandez, no runs support.

[mvp 78]

I feel so bad for Felix Hernandez, a guy who could win 300 games on a contender. He won the CY with 1 game over .500. The voters robbed the Rocket in 1990, they're doing better now.

 

He has $175M reasons to not care about wins and losses. He's still a horse and will get into the HOF even if his win total is low.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Mariners got something going here, lets go!!

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

f*** you Bay.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Smh, rather watch paint dry than the Mariners offense. Pathetic.

[VA Sox Fan]

NYY win. Makes me sick. BLAH.....

 

Mariners SUCK SUCK SUCK!!!!!!

[Bellhorn04]

The Yankees are harder to get rid of than cockroaches.

We need to come up with a "Yankee Motel". We can fill an abandoned building with puddles of industrial-strength adhesive surrounded by buckets of PEDs and double-ended dildos. Then when they get stuck going after the stuff, we can watch and laugh as they starve to death!

They will go all Donner Party and eat each other. I'm torn, though. Would CC be the last one left, or the first to die?

[Youk Of The Nation]

First to die, but only minutes ahead of Joba. He's too fat to go on the offensive, and with everyone bogged down by super-strength glue he'll be easy pickings for the small, quick guys like Gardner and Ichiro. After he has been stripped to the bone and is lying there like the worlds highest-paid whale carcass, they'll start in on Joba, but the meth in his tissues will cause everyone to go insane. They'll pull free of the glue, severely damaging their skin in the process, and murder each other in a fit of delusional violence. The only one left alive will be A-Rod, as he always disappears when things get real. He won't survive long, though. With the PED damage to his brain and no one around to remind him, he'll forget that the dildos were sitting in a puddle of glue and end up dying of a blocked intestine.

So good to see vintage Phelps last night.

[Standing Room]

I love Overbay in the outfield. Looked like he was expecting help from Cano there in right field.

Yeah, we're playing with fire here. But what are you going to do? I'd personally like to see us bring up Zoilo Almonte. Switch hitter with power and speed. I'd rather see what we have down there than continue with these retreads who are either out of position or should be out of a job

[a700hitter]

A's are spanking CC. 5-0 A's

[Standing Room]

Sabathia's sitting 90 mph and topping out at 92 mph on his fastball again. So far, he's given up five earned through four innings against the A's.

[yankees228]

They can live with Overbay's defense in the outfielder considering how great he has been on offense this year. I mean what's his wRC these days? 140? 130? Oh, about that ...

 

And tonight is pretty disappointing, mainly because of CC. Got to check after the game, but it seems like his velocity is back to where it was before the previous two games.

[Standing Room]

Yankees announcers were saying that Sabathia has come out and said that his elbow feels great, he just doesn't think he's going to be a pitcher that throws in the mid-90's anymore.

[jacksonianmarch]

Sabathia's sitting 90 mph and topping out at 92 mph on his fastball again. So far, he's given up five earned through four innings against the A's.

 

In his defense, only 2 balls were hit hard, both homers. The two guys who scored on the 3 run HR got end of the bat hits and the run driven in on Norris' double was a bloop in front of Overbay. Also, I think Norris read the SR. He saw the get-me-over slider and pounded it. CC does that well vs patient teams and the A's are typically patient (at least their GM preaches it). I don't think he was expecting Norris to jump on that pitch

[jacksonianmarch]

That being said, it sucks CC is having a rough game, but we aren't hitting Colon.

[yankees228]

Yeah, and I see no reason to doubt that. But sitting 92 and topping out at 94 is a big difference than sitting at 90 and topping out at 92. We all saw the difference it made during his past two starts.

[jacksonianmarch]

The past two starts, he was on the black and his breaking ball was better located. In this game, his breaking ball is leaking over the plate

Oh sure, it's not just about the velocity, but it's certainly part of the equation.

[Standing Room]

Colon hasn't looked particularly sharp today. He's allowed his season high in walks. He loaded the bases in the first, but Youkilis and then Overbay popped up in foul territory to let him off the hook. Some of this has to be on the Yankees offense, which has had a .289 wOBA since April.

[Youk Of The Nation]

The first time in a while no one on the Yankees has pounded Colon.

[Station 13]

Hughes with an early Wednesday night special: 2 run meatball.

[Standing Room]

The Yankees are now three games back, their offense has actually gotten worse since Teixeira and Youkilis have returned. As a team, they've hit .238/.306/.347 in the month of June.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Red Sox two games up in the boo-yah column.

[RedSoxfanforlife305]

Nice to see the Yankees win and the sox losing when I get back

 

You know what's really nice? When the Red Sox win and the Yankees lose. What a great birthday gift! Happy birthday to me.
