  1. I think it might be. His velocity is there, but his location has been awful
  2. Clipppard needs to remember that Longoria eats us for dinner. It's bottom of the 8th, two out, two on. Walking him loads the bases, but allowing him to hit loses is the game. I'd be very careful with him. He seems to really love facing NYY
  3. Velazquez was your best AAA pitcher. That's less an indictment on Farrell and more an indictment on DD/Cherington
  4. Your streak is gonna end
  5. Ben trading Lester was really smart in retrospect. Getting Cespedes netted you a young guy who won't the CY last year. Not re-signing him was really stupid. Lester is a playoff ace who won in boston. Price is a playoff choker who had no history in boston. I also don't think it's Lester or Price. I think DD comes in and adds Price to Lester and probably won't have to get Sale. That keeps Moncada as your 3b and your farm stocked. OR, it allows DD to properly replace Papi with a major offensive talent. Passing on Lester in FA was a big, big f*** up. Lackey's trade looks epically bad in retrospect, but at the time, Craig was a perennial cleanup hitter coming off an injury plagued season and Kelly was a pitcher whose stuff was a lot better than his performance. That deal probably should have been for prospects rather than big leaguers
  6. CC throws a gem. Our offense hits a couple big flies. That's how it's supposed to work!
  7. Harper had one more year of arb anyway. Its a non issue
  8. Harper is head, shoulder, knees and toes above Betts. That's not a knock on Betts, but when Harper is healthy, he's the best player in baseball. I like Lindor more than Betts due to similar ceiling offensively, but The position gives him the edge.
  9. Tanaka' velocity is up this year. His location has been erratic. Severino is effectively a rookie.
  10. What you need is Porcello to pitch like Porcello. Last season, his BABIP was down in the .269 range and he won the CY. This year, it is up in the .327 range. The homerun ball has increased dramatically as well, up 0.7/9IP. Now his K rate is up this year which is making his FIP look good, but to this point, Porcello appears wild in the zone which is why he is getting hammered. He has already lost more games this year than all of last year. Now, part of that is the offense, but the other part is that he isn't lasting as long, and he isn't that effective. 2017 is making 2016 look more like the career year that it was.
  11. Then we get handled by McCullers. Good to see the game get rained out today. Collect their heads before a DH tomorrow
  12. We never hit Keuchel, but we did have him on the ropes more than usual. I loved the late rally. But a perfect throw did it. The fight in this team is great
  13. I live in Mass. might as well feel at home
  14. We keep you in check
  15. Pom isn't going anywhere. You got torched by a bad start. Same thing happened with us last night.
  16. I'm usually talking to myself!
  17. And now CC is still batting??? Wtf?
  18. f***ing Girardi. I get we are a day removed from an 18 inning game, but it doesn't mean we sacrifice a game we are going to hit in. Pull him you dumb f***
  19. What are we waiting for. He's been meat all game
  20. Get the pen warm. CC is done
  21. Sanchez with a bomb!
  22. Depending on how our development has moved along, there is a possibility it is both. That being said, by then Gardner will be gone. Ells will be on his last legs. Hicks who knows. We have Frazier to pair with Judge in the OF. We have other OF prospects, but none close enough to expect them to don a Yankee uni. Plus, Harper in YS would be deadly. Machado has a shot for sure, but we've already got a young IF with Torres likely to be at 3B or SS soon. Our need might be in the OF more so than the IF. And I also think Harper is a lot better
  23. You understand that Harper is basically guaranteed to be a Yankee, right?
