2017 Yankees Season Thread

[jacksonianmarch]

CC has nothing

[jacksonianmarch]

Get the pen warm. CC is done

[jacksonianmarch]

What are we waiting for. He's been meat all game

[jacksonianmarch]

f***ing Girardi. I get we are a day removed from an 18 inning game, but it doesn't mean we sacrifice a game we are going to hit in. Pull him you dumb f***

[jacksonianmarch]

And now CC is still batting??? Wtf?

[bkzwhitestrican]

I think you should start a daily Yankees gameday thread.

[jacksonianmarch]

I'm usually talking to myself!

[Spudboy]

I can make some off-color remarks if you wish!

 

Seriously, as I told you last season, the Yankees are getting back to where they used to be. What they are doing now does not surprise me.

[Kimmi]

I'm just sincerely trying to figure out why you'd want to have a Yankees game thread on a Red Sox board.

[bkzwhitestrican]

I was only kidding! But if any of you ever want to check out the Yankees gameday discussion, go to the Riveraveblues website. It's just as dysfunctional and reactionary as you'd imagine.

I really don't want to check out a Yankees forum.

 

The few Yankees fans that hang out on Red Sox boards are about all the Yankeeness I can deal with.

[jacksonianmarch]

We keep you in check

[Kimmi]

We keep you in check

 

More like you hang out with us because you know how cool we are.

[jacksonianmarch]

I live in Mass. might as well feel at home

Great play to finish last night's game. As a Sox fan needless to say I was happy to see Ellsbury out at the plate.

 

As a baseball fan I was thinking it was a classic major league baseball play.

[jacksonianmarch]

We never hit Keuchel, but we did have him on the ropes more than usual. I loved the late rally. But a perfect throw did it. The fight in this team is great

That was a crazy ten seconds of mixed emotions. I went from anxious before the pitch, to pumped after the ball got through the infield, to bummed when Ells got gunned out.

[dgalehouse]

Tough call for the third base coach. The leftfielder was playing very shallow and got to the ball quickly. A good throw was going to nail him. Holliday was on deck. I think the consensus is that you take the chance with two outs. Hard to argue with that.

[Bellhorn04]

There were no mistakes by anybody, everybody did what they were supposed to do. That's why it was such a great play.

[bkzwhitestrican]

Agreed, I have no issue with him being waved home. With Ellsbury running, I'd say there's a 50% chance of scoring on that single. Compared to Holliday who has a .270 AVG, or 27% chance of driving him in. Obviously it didn't work out (for Yankees fans anyway), but I would make the same decision if the situation occurs again.

[jacksonianmarch]

Then we get handled by McCullers. Good to see the game get rained out today. Collect their heads before a DH tomorrow

[Wade Boggs]

Aroldis Chapman headed for the DL....MLB rumors

[dgalehouse]

w. As noted previously, the Yankees have a good lineup , bench and bullpen. Starting pitching could be their Achilles heel. Yankee fans will soon tire of hearing " He didn't have his best stuff tonight ". " Just missed his spots ".

[Kimmi]

I really like this Astros team. And not just because they're beating the Yankees. LOL

[bkzwhitestrican]

They're just setting up an epic comeback for Jeter Day.

[a700hitter]

The Stros s*** all over Jeter Day. Good for him and his nauseatingly adoring fans, and the crooked, biased Joe Torre who presided over a locker room full of PED users. Edited May 15, 2017 by a700hitter

[a700hitter]

Jacko, I told you that the sterling gems tossed by Severino and Tanaka against the hitless wonder Red Sox were aberrations. Never doubt me Doc. I know when my team sucks and is making the opposing pitcher look good.

[jacksonianmarch]

Tanaka' velocity is up this year. His location has been erratic. Severino is effectively a rookie.

what do you anticipate the Yankees will do this off-season no Harper signed a 1-year extension?

[bkzwhitestrican]

Lose either (or both) Gardner/Ellsbury. Call up Frazier or Fowler to bide time until Harper signs a $1B contract with the Yankees until he's 45.
