Pretty rough outing for Wells. Even though he's on the Sox I still love him. He made me a Yankees fan. His perfect game was the first full Yankees game I ever saw. Been hooked ever since. -
I cheered for him when the Sox brought him into a game. I mean come on, I'd rather be like the Angels and have no lefty than have Embree as our "lefty specialist".
-
It is panicky. It's like Joe has to make sure TanGorMo will work in the postseason by using them every day just to make sure. It's like a little a kid checking under his bed every five seconds to make sure the boogey monster isn't there.
-
I don't think the 2001 World Series helped either. Or talks of him waiving his no trade clause to come to the Yankees and then signing with the Red Sox. Now he is one of the most hated men by Yankees fans and has a kid named Gehrig. Go figure.
-
Yeah I know what you mean, and you are right. While it does suck to lose, the ones that are hard losses stick with you. RJ was fine I think, but the offense needed to step up and YET AGAIN it sucked against bad pitching. I find myself more confident against Santana than I do against Waetehslkdfj whatever.
-
I don't really get the whole waiver thing. Why would the Astros want to give up Clemens?
-
Trying to find the silver lining, huh? Well, I guess that's true, but they are also something like 20 games back, and it's unacceptable for the Yanks to have a 4-8 record against them. Esp. not when they only got beat by them once last year or something like that.
-
Or you could look at it as 31/33
-
[VENT]s*** happens. Hey Joe - Mariano needs some rest ya moron. He keeps overusing him like this and Mo will be done by mid season next year. He isn't getting any younger! I'd like to preserve that amazing arm of his, thank you very much. Are we starting to see the "Clueless Joe" everyone was talking about in 1995? I seriously hope not. Small needs to be the closer for a couple days. Deal with it Joe. Trust someone else. [/VENT]
-
lol that is pretty funny. Im not really a big football fan. I've been trying to get into it though. I have a Jets shot glass so I guess I'll root for them? I dunno, I'll see how this season goes then pick my favorite team.
-
Tino safe at home but called out. Yanks up 3-0. Gotta love those Umps.
-
double play. no runs. 2-0 yanks bot. 1
-
Oh, how could I mix the two up? :dunno: I do like the Patriots, but that of course has nothing to do with Tom Brady.
-
No I do post on another Yankees board. I wanted to come to a Red Sox board to see opinions that differ from my own. I think it makes for a better overall view on a subject, don't you? Besides, it wasnt meant to be inflamatory. Learn to take things you read with a little grain of salt. I'm just bringing that up because I have had to hear Red Sox fans go on and on about that one elusive ring, and that that would be enough for them in their whole lives.
-
lol of course I didn't want to just settle with one in 1996, but I never said that that was the only ring I wanted the Yanks to get. Countless Red Sox fans said they would be content with a ring in 2004 and then be satisfied for the rest of their lives. The "Now I can die happy" kinda thing. Ah how quickly the Yankee fan mentality takes over
-
Well you know what, from what I have heard that 2004 ring was worth it to Red Sox fans. You guys got your 2004, isn't that all you wanted?
-
Ok, well his BAA is .313 right now. That isn't good no matter what pitching role you have.
-
There is a slim chance he can become a reliable starting pitcher anytime soon. It's pretty bad not having a closer, but it's even worse not having a go to number one bonified ace in your starting rotation, and right now, the Sox don't really have that in anyone. The Sox needed Schilling as a starter. If he did start, he wouldn't be choking down the stretch right now like Clement is and I think the Sox would have a bigger lead over the Yanks. But I'm not complaining because it is benefitting the Yanks and is great to see (esp. when Arod hits a game winning homer off Schilling with Vtek behind the plate ).
-
None of that surprised me, I just think that his words were taken out of context. He is great buddies with A-rod and I'm sure it is being implied that the two players in the limelight are Jeter and Arod. I have a hard time believing he would say that about one of his pals. The media gets away with it anyway because of Sheff's reputation. Sheff just needs to keep his mouth shut, hit the damn ball, stop catching balls in the outfield like he still has a shoulder injury, and play ball like an all-star.
-
Agreed. I just hope that whichever team doesn't win the division wins the wild card, because there's nothing like a Yanks/Sox ALCS.
-
I do too, and it's going to be a lotta fun to watch.
-
not true, i joined this site when the yanks were something like 6 games back
-
That's true. I guess they did it for the safety and health of Yankees fans, and for that, I thank them. :clap:
-
haha I actually heard about either a football league or hockey league proposing to do that, and I mean like the NFL or the NHL, in the pre-season. I'll have to find the article...
-
I think I'd s*** my pants. In all seriousness though, that falls under the category of "unless it winds up being necessary to determine playoff seeding."
