  1. The Yankees will be going through the motions. The only way Tampa loses one of the two games is if 1 of their starters shits the bed and gives up a big early inning.
  2. Thanks E1 for bringing the doom and gloom.
  3. This is two seasons in a row where the team has gone into a tailspin and collapsed. These have been total collapses. Last year everyone blamed injuries and some people are still willing to make the injury excuse. Injuries were the catalyst for both collapses. This year the injuries happened later so the collapse didn't happen until September. However, injuries are part of the game. Other teams including the Yanks have had injuries in 2010 and 2011. Our injuries have sent the 2010-11 Sox teams into precipitous tailspins. Neither the 2010 or 2011 team had the necessary depth to mitigate the effect of the injuries. These have not been soundly built teams.
  4. It will take 2 wins to force a 1 game playoff. I don't see that happening. The Yankees have absolutely no incentive to win. This is what I have feared for 3 weeks. Lester loses his last 3 starts. Beckett loses his last 2 starts. Papelbon blows a game and Bard has melted down 2-3 times. All of this has happened in this run. It has nothing to do with injuries. It has nothing to do wit fatigue. Beckett, Lester and Papelbon were coddled all year. Their workloads were very carefully managed. They just couldn't step up at all.
  5. But feel free to text John Lackey.
  6. Aceves can be the 7th/8th inning guy next year. Keep him there with his 9-2 record and great ERA. Put Bard and his 2-9 record in the starting rotation. It straightened Derek Lowe about 10 years ago.
  7. Just trying to get off the topic of the game.
  8. This FO brought two World Championships and for that I am grateful. However, I have never experience a collapse like this. For this, I will never forgive them.
  9. Broken clavicle?
  10. I never got an answer before, have dead baby jokes gone out of vogue?
  11. Salty with another k. What else is new. Better than a DP.
  12. Youkilis can't PH?
  13. Here's his chance for redemption.
  14. ... and he strikes out one-third of the time, so he doesn't even make productive outs. What a breakout season!!!
  15. If he catches the relay throw, Andino is out by 10 feet and no inside the park HR.
  16. Exactly. He should have had him by 10 feet. Vlad stealing should never ever happen. I'm sorry. Also, he couldn't catch the throw to the plate either. Andino was out by 10 feet. Breakout by Salty. Yeah right. The guy is a big stiff.
  17. No momentum carried over from last night.
  18. Aceves for 3 innings?
  19. Stop with the debate over dark humor. The season is in the balance here. If you like dark humor, good. If it offends you, good. You can't stop people from engaging in it, so you'll be offended occasionally. Now let's discuss the game, or I'll buy each of you tickets to fly in a plane piloted by a Yankee player.
  20. Beckett gave Vlad the jump, but Salt 's throw was way off the mark.
  21. Vlad stealing a base? OMG, that is so embarrassing!
  22. Beckett stepped up like an ace. Lester wasn't able to do that. We need runs.
  23. Need him to be an ace here
