That’s pretty pathetic of you. So what you’re saying is you’re all racists?

[iortiz]

Glad I was working. Ottavino is anti-clutch

 

The same guy who said would dominate the babe?

the 2016 voting map shows NY as much more racist then New England.

If you are generalizing based on a few knuckleheads then how bout we generalize the few racist punks hurling taunts at Adam Jones and other black athletes and just label all sox fans as racist. That works. By your terminology, I am a scumbag and you're a racist.

He probably meant he could dominate the Babe in a Spring Training game

Good stuff:

 

Mets pitcher Marcus Stromam seems to think the Yankees made a mistake by not acquiring him at the MLB trade deadline — at least according to his social media activity.

 

Stroman endorsed a series of tweets Tuesday night — during the Yankees’ 4-1 loss to the Astros in Game 3 of the ALCS — that criticized the Yanks for not beefing up their starting rotation at the deadline.

 

“This is the series when the @Yankees regret not making a move to get a stud pitcher,” wrote Pierce W. Huff in a tweet “liked” by Stroman.

 

“We were interested in Stroman but we didn’t think he would be a difference maker … we felt he would be in our bullpen in the postseason,” Yankees general manager Brian Cashman told Yahoo Sports last month.

 

One Twitter user mockingly replied to a highlight of Yankees starting pitcher Luis Severino giving up a home run Tuesday night with Cashman’s reasoning for passing on Stroman.

 

Stroman “liked” that tweet as well.

 

Stroman seemed taken back by Cashman’s snub when the GM’s comments were first published. Then, Stroman tweeted a graphic showing his superior statistics compared to the Yankees’ starters.

 

The 28-year-old went 10-13 with a 3.22 ERA this season split between the Blue Jays and Mets, while starting pitching has been considered the Yankees’ weak spot all season.

All I wanted for my 21st birthday was the Yankees to get pounded into submission, but God rained on my parade, literally

Good stuff:

 

Stroman probably would have been an upgrade but it's not someone I'd ever want on my team. Nothing but a big drama queen.

Cheer up young man. You will get a late wish tomorrow night

[TylerD]

Ok now I can say it

 

 

GAME DAY

[bkzwhitestrican]

I'll be at the game tonight. I hope we take an early lead and then pile on so I can enjoy the game rather than be stressed out. I'll also try to limit the amount of trash I toss onto the field.

Trivia question for you, Slash.

 

Can you name the player who had a bowie knife thrown at him in Yankee Stadium in 1986?

oh dang. i forgot about that. iirc it was surprising NOT a red sox player. cant remember who tho...guess: george brett?

i'm pretty sure i'm wrong but i can guarantee I'm right with who the next player to get a knife thrown at him in Yankees Stadium will be:

our old friend Josh Reddik.....

Wally Joyner - in his rookie season no less. The knife only grazed him, fortunately.

At $180 bucks for a seat in the upper deck, I'll be going home a little sad either way.

I'm pulling against your team, of course, but I hope you have a good time at the game.

 

This has been a very stress free postseason for me.

I can see it now.... My prediction Astros ahead in the 8th but Judge hits a ridiculous HR and the Yankees fans go nuts!!!! Not a ton of offense from the Yanks tonight but Judge gets the crowd going in the 8th!!

 

Astros win 16

Yankees 2

[TylerD]

It was a low-class move for sure by those fans, but are we judging whole fanbases by their worst fans now? If so I'm pretty sure the Red Sox would win the title for most racist fans in baseball (just ask Adam Jones). BUT I'm not going to apply that moniker to a whole fanbase because obviously those few *******s don't represent the majority.

 

I think the problem with New York fans is it is every sport. Rangers fans at hockey games are ridiculous too, same with Jets games. However it isn't all fans. You and Jack are good guys, but New York is filled with idiot fans just the way it is.

 

With that said, they aren't as bad as Eagle fans. Philly takes the cake in my opinion. Granted they destroy their own city lmao so meh.

In!

[jacksonianmarch]

These Astros have gotten so f***ing lucky. Missiles left and right getting caught on their side and just out of our gloves for others. Balls dying at the fence for us, balls reaching the first row for them. Man, we gotta capitalize here

[jacksonianmarch]

1-0 you f***ing f***s

[Slasher9]

1-0 you f***ing f***s

 

Really???

Wow.

Ok.

[jacksonianmarch]

Really???

Wow.

Ok.

 

My audience was not you guys per se, it was the Astros. Don't worry though, Gary will come to the rescue and get behind then K
