  1. Is that a QS for Hughes? lol!!! Gotta love rookies in a rotation for a team with the highest payroll in baseball. We were high 5 ing in my house when the Yankees missed out on Santana.
  2. Nice recovery after the leadoff walk and the 3-1 count to Posada.
  3. I hate when Dice-K starts nibbling around.
  4. 39 pitches for Hughes in the first inning. What will he do against our lineup with a post-slump Papi and Lowell. We'll just slap him silly.
  5. Santana may not be invincible, but he blows away Hughes and Kennedy.
  6. Drew could have crawled home on Damon's arm
  7. That's it. Keep pitching to Manny. He's losing his battle with age. lol!!!
  8. No chance at getting Ellsbury there. Plus we get a base extra bonus.
  9. Nice around the horn DP started by Youk and turned by Pedroia.
  10. No, I am referring to the Colon that has won a Cy Young in 2005 with 146 wins and a .606 winning %. WHat has Igawa done?
  11. He was very good last night, but not dominant. The Red Sox got some very good swings and made a lot of good contact. If he threw that way in June, he'd have given up 3 or 4 runs.
  12. Remind me. I thought we tied for the division lead despite having lost Pedro, Lowe, and Cabrera from the Championship team and replacing them with Matt Clement, David Wells and Rent-a-wreck. This time around everyone is returning.
  13. The back end of the Red Sox rotation is better than the Yankees now, and the Sox have the possibility of adding Colon very soon and Schilling in the second half. While I don't expect to see a productive Schilling, I do expect Colon to be a very nice addition to the back end of the rotation. The Yankees have nothing to add to the rotation outside of a trade, except Joba, and that would take a wrecking ball to your bullpen. As for the Sox pen, in addition to the Papelbon and Okajima at the end of the pen, MDC is better than anything the Yankees have leading up to Joba. Similarly, Timlin is still a very reliable member of the pen and with his experience, he to is better than anything the Yanks have except for Mo and Joba. Although Lopez is a puss bag, he is way better than Billy Traber who is completely useless. Finally, the head case Tavarez has good versatility and eats a good deal of innings. Occasionally, he has a good outing. His versatility alone makes him more valuable than thos two s*** bags Farnsworth and Latroy Hawkins.
  14. I saw him in Spring Training. He threw free and easy. His long tosses were something that you don't see too many pitchers do. He stands in front of the wall in dead center field and long tosses to almost the foul line, and he is not lobbing the ball. He is gunning it. In the game that I saw, he had excellent velocity on his fastball and he was burying his slider. If his arm stays healthy, I'd rather have him as my #4 or 5 than Moose, Hughes or kennedy this year.
  15. Let's not forget that I urinated at the new site shortly after the ground-breaking ceremony. They are doomed.
  16. With 2 rookie starters and an old Moose, the Yankees will need more than a two man bullpen, and they just don't have any depth.
  17. They are comparable in results to this point, because Beckett has pitched only one game and Colon hasn't pitched at all. There is a big talent and depth advantage for the Red Sox staff over the Yankees in both the rotation and the bullpen. You are kidding yourself if you think otherwise. You have a two man bullpen complemented by kids and pigs.
  18. This will probably be the highlight of the 2008 Yankee season, because they are going nowhere.
  19. Yeah, he was taking HGH to get bigger and fatter or to physically recover from his 4 ABs. He'll be bitch-slapping Yankee pitchers when the weather gets warm
  20. Why would Francona put Timlin in a tie game in the 7th against the Yankees for his first game of the year? f***ing Francona!
