  1. Our Roster is vastly superior at this point to what Girardi has in his dugout.
  2. Regardless of the quality of his bullpen, the prick Girardi is a superior manager to Farrell. And no bullpen could ever make Farrell look like a genius.
  3. 89 that is how you are supposed to pitch. Quick enjoyable game.
  4. The mound was lowered for the 1969 season.
  5. He stinks -- a complete 0. I'd rather see Marco play than Hill.
  6. They are getting better yields from Latin America, so they would rather invest the money there. In the white suburbs, the parents pay the freight. The cost in the inner cities is too high to have a thriving program. It is a business and not a social program. Maybe the horseshit corrupt politicians in the inner cities should direct some money toward these programs that build bodies and character instead of handing out free cell phones.
  7. I read an interesting stat the other day. In 1967, Yaz had 12.4 WAR season. That was the highest mark recorded in a season by a position player since Babe Ruth in 1927, and no position player achieved that mark since. Only 2 pitchers have surpassed that season mark -- Steve Carlton in 1972 when he won 27 games and Dwight Gooden in 1985. Yaz's mark of 12.4 has been surpassed only twice in a season by a position player -- both times by Babe Ruth. Whenever people talk about Yaz's 1967 season they talk about the final 2 weeks, but the entirety of his season was remarkable.
  8. Koji can still look good, but at his age the consistency may not be there. Also, he was lucky that Sanchez didn't elevate the pitch he hit for a single. It was a meatball.
  9. LOL!! Let's hope not.
  10. Pom has lost his command his last 2 times out which could be an indicator of fatigue.
  11. Some of her insights are good, and she obviously does her homework, but she cannot fill Schillings shoes when it comes to insights about pitching. The whole Sunday broadcast team is a bore.
  12. Still a doofus, but if they win in the post season, he will be my favorite doofus.
  13. He did a good job this weekend.
  14. For the JF lovers, he managed this series well. Whether or not they won those come from behind games, he gave them a chance to win by not sticking too long with faltering pitchers. Seven run rule be damned!
  15. And there is the Sweep!!! a 4 game sweep!! They are really playing like a good team this weekend. They came from behind. They were resilient and they had an indomitable look about them. That was a lot of fun to watch.
  16. Whew!!! Dodged a bullet with Sanchez.
  17. He doesn't have it tonight. Need to get the pen ready quickly.
  18. I'll let you know when that happens. I haven't seen that yet.
  19. The semi finals start tomorrow and Go Johnny and iortiz will advance to face Thunder and MVP. Iortiz beat me like a drum pitching a 10-0 shutout against me and ending my dreams of a three-peat. Go Johnny had the upset of the playoffs thus far eliminating U.N.'s powerhouse team. Good luck to the remaining teams.
  20. Imagine getting tickets for a meaningful September game on a Sunday night against the Yankees and Ortiz is on the bench in his final season.
  21. I disagree. I think that he spits plenty. Such a hater!
  22. His OPS was down more than 100 points from his career average last season, and he has not played this much since 2013. This is his career high in PA.
  23. It is just bickering at this point. Southpaw stated his point of view and Bells felt the need to stir things up.
  24. it was the only aspect of the Yankee tea that had been superior to the Red Sox until they blew it up at the Trading Deadline. Now they have a horror show in the pen.
  25. Just bickering to pass the time.
