I just see any reason to think a pitcher who can't miss any bats can be at all effective.
-
I don't expect Freddy to miss a single bat all game.
-
Apparently that was Tex's first opposite HR as a RHH since 2008. And the Yankees just can't stop hitting into DPs lol.
-
I still expect this to turn around sooner rather than later, but the longer this goes on, the more confused I've become. EDIT: Can't comment on specifics from tonight though ... was at the Yankees game.
-
Tough loss. Jacko nailed it, Nova's command and the double plays killed them tonight.

No improvement from Phil Hughes means it's AAA time. Gotta let him work out his problems in a place where he's not killing the big league team every five games.
-
Oh Hughes. His line isn't good, but it looks so much better than he has actually pitched.
-
Phil Hughes' cutter is so bad. EDIT: And that's how he tries to finish Lee. Lol. He threw a few pitches a little faster than he had in the two prior starts, but he still looks terrible ... although I suspect others will be more optimistic, simply based on the results and the slight improvement in velocity.
-
Arrieta looked terrible that inning, but at the same time, managed to have a very quick inning.
-
Big night early on in this season for Phil Hughes and the Yankees.
-
Jacko has a point though. One of the big reasons AJ got through six was luck. The O's swung at a lot of hittable pitches, and just missed them. He was flirting with disaster all night. I'm perfectly fine with keeping him in after the double, and maybe even after Wieter's home run. But after he walks Andino, with the lineup turning over, and the O's only down five, he has to go to Robertson against Roberts and shut that inning down. One of the main issues with Girardi is that he waits for trouble to start before countering instead of trying to prevent the trouble before it starts. He opts for mitigation instead of prevention. It should be the other way around.

http://twitter.com/#!/BryanHoch/status/58353779313082370 Nice job Cashman, way to sign a guy who you knew was 'abused'.
-
Can't ever be easy. Classic Joe. One or two batters too long.
-
AJ has been flirting with that all night. His stuff hasn't been as good as his line indicates.
-
Heck of a good change to get Scott.
-
Great play. But terrible job by Posada. To swing at that pitch, on 2-0, against a pitcher that can't find the zone is bad.
-
For some reason the O's outfielders continue to play in the gaps, and it has helped a bit so far. Good scouting I guess. But also a good start for the Yanks.
-
Brutal two innings, but somehow AJ is threw unscathed ... thanks to some luck and a couple quality pitches.
-
The pitch selection is just brutal. They've become obsessed with the change-up, but that's only part of the problem. AJ might not get through five tonight.
-
How do you get ahead of Mark Reynolds 1-2 and not throw a single curve? Just terrible, classic Yankees pitch selection.
-
Well I don't expect the Knicks to win, but I'm pleased they're playing the Celtics instead of the Heat.
-
Terrible decision. More good fortune. EDIT: Although that's going off the idea that he was pitching around him to begin with, and the first two balls were a result of that. Putting him on after being behind 2-0 was the right call.
