7/24 @ Baltimore

[Tedballgame]

I hate Joe Kelly!

[d-money]

f*** you joe Kelly. Down by 3 runs with 9 outs left

[Tedballgame]

Earlier this year there were articles about how much Kelly was going to get as a FA. LOL! He stinks.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Cora continues to be one batter too late. He seems to have made it an art form.

[d-money]

Did Cora give up on the game?

[oldtimer]

Having POM and Kelly in the same game is not a winning formula. Btw, does that qualify as understatement of the year?

 

Kelly has lost something since JUly. Hope he finds it soon as we are going in the wrong direction. The Yankees are said to have Zach Britton so more bad news.

He was worth a lot in June. Now? Not so much.

[Tedballgame]

Losing to Baltimore is embarrassing.

And Tanaka is pitching an 8 inning shutout. I guess thats more than enough s*** news.

[d-money]

What a s*** show to a horrible team. Horrible inning.

[Tedballgame]

If Sox lose this game the only two times they will have lost to Baltimore is with Pomeranz starting. That is because he SUCKS!

[d-money]

Idk if this team has a comeback in them but 4 runs seems like a lot even if that team’s the birds.

[Station 13]

Time to get Buttrey up here. DL Kelly.

[Station 13]

Nunez not covering 2B cost them 3 runs now. But Kelly is a guy they cannot go to now.

[Slasher9]

Still time to come back in tonight’s game.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Wasn't it just a few years ago that the Yankems had one of the fewest prospects in baseball?

[FredLynn]

Losing to Baltimore is embarrassing.

 

We are currently 10-1 against the Orioles. No matter how much they stink, they are still a ML club. And if we toss Pomeranz against them the results are by no means a guaranteed win.

[FredLynn]

So the Yankees ended up with Britton, a RP they didn't really need unless Chapman is hurt more than they are letting on. They still need at least one, maybe two, very good SP.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

The only good news about this game, and I had to think long and hard, is that Kimbrel will get the night off. That is all.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Also, on the positive side, I feel that SWI has again proven he is a viable back-up for Leon.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Just looked this up. After this season the O's still have 4 years left on their contract with Davis with 92 million remaining. I doubt the Dodgers will bail them out.

[Jasonbay44]

Man is JD Martinez good. Somehow this game is still alive.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Jim Dandy!

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Man is JD Martinez good. Somehow this game is still alive.

 

He has a nice level swing and keeps his bat in the hitting zone longer than most hitters.

6-9 in the 9th. Kill me.

[SPLENDIDSPLINTER]

Nice play by Mitch.

Nice to bring up a bright spot. Really, even with Pom's issues, it was Kelly that make this game a reach for us to come back and win. We need Kelly to find himself and soon or else we need to bolster the BP.

[d-money]

Could be too little too late. I f***ing hate joe kelly. Ok

[Station 13]

Xander and Moreland cooling off is no help.

[Jasonbay44]

Joe Kelly's ERA is approaching 5 (4.79), he is really concerning right now. Our Pen was already weak/inconsistent, his struggles have made it even worse.

 

Nice work by Velazquez tonight.
