  1. Are you trying to cast a hex on us? LOL!
  2. LOL!! I am recycling this one today. The dangers of electronic communication.
  3. Nunez keeps getting pushed back. I hope that he gets back in the lineup before the regular season ends.
  4. I haven't been on the site for the last few days, but I wanted to check in to see if my buddy, iortiz and his family and friends made it safely through the earthquake in Mexico. I am hoping that we hear good news from you.
  5. Colon knocked out and the Twins started a parade of pigs from their bullpen. Yanks lead 9-3.
  6. And your point is that it wasn't a cheapie. RF in Yankee Stadium is a joke.
  7. And they did a great job of overhyping this kid and getting a get return for him.
  8. Back to back HRs -- game tied.
  9. Judge with a cheapie to RF Twins 3 Yankees 2. This movie is a rerun. The ending will not change.
  10. Severino at 66 pitches in the 3rd inning.
  11. 3-0 Twins, but 100 yr old Colon is pitching for the Twins. At least Gardenhire isn't their manager anymore.
  12. I never viewed the price as steep, because i don't place a lot of value on 18 year old pitchers, unless the guy is 6'6" and already throwing 98.
  13. Through what kind of filter do read posts? Seriously, your credibility declines with every post. Did I say that I like HanRam over Moreland as a fielder? I can't discuss things with you if you are going to continue constantly misrepresenting what I say and making wrong assumptions.
  14. Hopefully, the Yankees will have a loss on the board before the game starts.
  15. A Softball is thrown with 3 fingers. Maybe he has small hands. I don't think 3 fingers would affect accuracy, velocity maybe, but he has good pace on the ball.
  16. And both arguments are just dopey and boring.
  17. I agree with you. After a ful season of watching Moreland, I don't see him as being at a much higher level than Hanley. He throws the ball much better, but fielding ground balls and throws ... there is little difference. Also, he pisses me off when he wanders so far off the base that he interferes with Pedroia's play and often is unsuccessful in getting the out at first for various reasons. It is very hard for a lumbering lefty like Moreland to turn his body and make the leading throw to the pitcher from that far toward 2nd base. Just GTF out of Pedroi's way and get your ass to the base to take the throw. He did that during ST, and I mentioned to Dewey that he shouldn't be wandering that far toward 2nd base... especially in the age of the shift where IF's are piled up on one side of the field.
  18. After 5 months of him working out of jams, I would have thought you would have developed a comfort level with him on the mound with men on base. He has been nothing short of extraordinary this season. You defend all sorts of bonehead plays, but Pomeranz worries you? Go figure. Your credibility is plummeting.
  19. Luckily that I was not eating or drinking when I read that or I would have choked and spit. LOL!!
  20. Must you always see blame being cast where none is being cast? read the posts. All I and CP said was that Moreland usually scoops that ball. No blame on him. It was a tough play, an players are not perfect. I was just not throwing Devers under the bus for the throw. He made a lot of plays last night and handled them flawlessly. The errant throw at the end was not overly concerning to me, because that ball usually gets picked. Keep in mind that when looking to defend against the unfair blame that you always perceive, there is no blame when we win. There is just analysis.
  21. What we have gotten from him between this year and last year for $3-4 million/ year has been worth it, even if Espinoza makes it to the majors in 2021.
  22. I thought about the late inning defensive replacement idea. Last night, I think he still had Marrero on the bench.
  23. I never thought there was any reason to regret the trade, because his ETA was so far out under even ideal circumstances and so much can go wrong in an extended period of time. Now, the trade looks like a one-sided coup.
