2016 Yankees Season thread

[jacksonianmarch]

So our offense sucks. Our rotation has 3 quality starts all year. Eovaldi is still as maddening as ever. Severino has been slammed in his two starts. CC is sitting mid 80s now. Pineda finally had a good start yesterday vs a AAA lineup. This is not a good start to this point. Hoping for better, but this team is just boring

[jacksonianmarch]

Swept by the A's. Pitiful. And we got 3 f***ing quality starts in a row. An embarrassing performance from our offense against a sub par staff at home.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Me:

 

Jacoby Ellsbury steals home against the Yankees: "f*** yeah! Ellsbury rocks! SUCK IT YANKEES! That was the most exciting play I've seen all year, man, my adrenaline is pumping!"

 

Jacoby Ellsbury steals home for the Yankees: "f*** that guy, and f*** the Yankees. They should have called him out. I hope he's sore from that slide, the greasy little bastard."

[jacksonianmarch]

Youk, we're irrelevant until we clear up our offensive issues. Arod and Tex look old and Headley looks like the worst player in baseball. You can't have 3 dead weights in your lineup and expect to win. And thank god Hicks had to leave, otherwise Ells doesn't steal home or knock in the insurance runs.

 

It's time for CC to be dropped from the rotation. He can't command his inferior stuff which makes him useless. Nova needs to be in there.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Wow, that happened in the blink of an eye. Two easy outs and then suddenly balls are flying over the fence every which way. Love it.

Pineda has cockshot syndrome. Today was an exacerbation.

 

Btw, I hope ARod's oblique ripped off the bone. Be out awhile you washed up roid freak

Sounds like nearly 10 year at this place has made you think like a Red Sox fan!

Pineda seems to be your Buchholz, you don't know what you're getting, on top of getting lots of missing time to DL>

Minus the pine tar, of course.

Funny you say that, because Buchholz also had a foreign substance incident.

[jacksonianmarch]

That is a good analogy. He's 6'7 and throws mid 90s with a wipeout slider, but he can't seem to miss the middle third of the plate

[Northern Star]

Yankee Stadium doesn't sound like a nice place to see a game, unless you're rich/corporate whore.

This team is an abortion

Hey, there's no reason for that defetus attitude.

[Thunder]

Hey, it's his choice.

[Youk Of The Nation]

Hey, it's his choice.

 

Oh, very well played. I salute you.

[Thunder]

Oh, very well played. I salute you.

 

Thanks. I've been working on that one for 9 months.

[jacksonianmarch]

We somehow managed to blow another runner on 3rd less than 2 outs situation. This offense is bad. Just really bad

[User Name]

Very enjoyable Yankees offense, yes.

[jacksonianmarch]

UN?, the thing that is so unnerving is how quickly ARod lost it. I guess it should have been expected with how he finished last yr, but the guy who started the yr in a Yankee uniform looked as washed up as any hitter I have seen in the uni. He looks worse than Hafner did when he faked it in NY. And as long as he is in the uni, he is going to play. Our team is FAR better with Beltran at DH and a real RFer in the OF. Add to that the fact that Headley looks just as bad and you have two absolute black holes in the lineup at positions that should be powerful. You put a guy who can hit into those spots and you have a good lineup. But with those holes plus with Castro and Gregorius not really tearing the cover off the ball and you have a lineup that is 5 deep at best. Add to that the fact that Tex is seeing NOTHING because he has no protection and you have him chasing out of the zone. Then you have Ells in his break down stage and Hicks looking lost. Man, this team looks as bad as I have ever seen offensively. We are at 3.8 runs per game right now and if you take away the 16 run second game of the yr, you're at 3.1. That's awful for a team who is supposed to be top 5 in offense

[Jasonbay44]

Eovaldi has a no hitter through 6, no hitters are cool. Would be his first career no hitter. I hope his no hitter doesn't get jinxed.

Man, you jinxed it. I am very unhappy for the Yankees.

[jacksonianmarch]

3 runs in 6 innings against a fill in starter who hadn't started in 2 years.

[Spudboy]

Hey, there's no reason for that defetus attitude.

 

Oh jeez......

[jacksonianmarch]

Another big deficit early. Severino had that big inning over without a run. 2 strike pitch down the cock called a ball, and the kid fell apart from there. But this team either wins a close one or gets ripped apart.

[Bigemu23]

It could be worse, the Braves have only hit 3 home runs AS A TEAM. Like over 90 individual players have hit as many or more home runs than the Braves

When Joe Castiglione mentioned that stat the other day, I couldn't believe it. Literally couldn't, as in I immediately assumed he misspoke and meant 13 or something. I had to rush to my laptop and look it up. That's horrifying.

They are slugging .280 as a team. I didn't think that was possible.

That's just disgusting. Braves fans have to be on the brink of rioting right now.

[jacksonianmarch]

YOTN, the Braves went full rebuild. Their farm is impressive and will bear fruit soon. Theyre gonna get two top 5 picks in the system as well this yr and next. They'll be back on top soon
