    And we keep pitching to him. I dont get it
  2. jacksonianmarch
    Lackey at 54 pitches against this scrub offense
  3. jacksonianmarch
    WHAT THE f***! STOP PITCHING TO HIM!
  4. jacksonianmarch
    Yep, Cabrera and scrubs, yet we still pitch to Cabrera.

    Scott Kazmir has sucked
  6. jacksonianmarch
    Montero hit his 15th homer and walked so far in the game
  7. jacksonianmarch
    Cameron should have been taken care of in April and this wouldnt be an issue

    Gary Sanchez was promoted to SI today. His GCL numbers were ridiculous .353/.419/.597 with 6 homers
  9. jacksonianmarch
    Tex and Cano go back to back. Nice to see

    Just wanted to give an update on one of the best stories in the Yankee minors thus far. Dellin Betances' numbers through 13 starts...8-1 1.61ERA 67IP 39H 12ER 18BB 82K 0.85WHIP 11.0K/9IP His velocity is sitting around 95 with him hitting 98-99 regularly. His breaking ball has been completely lights out and his change has made a massive stride since prior to his surgery. He's becoming the pitcher we all thought he could be when he received a 7 figure bonus in the 2006 draft. Now 22yrs old, he won't move to Trenton this yr, since he's post surgery. But he'll start out in AA next yr and might be a big league option before the end of the 2011 campaign. They might not have a choice but to bring him up mid season next yr if his stuff remains this unhittable

    Yet the majority of winners were actually the most valuable rather than the best

    The voters have made it pretty clear that being on a good team is one of the prerequisites UNLESS your season is just so much far and away better than the other guys a la Greinke last yr. It is just what they have done, and even though the award is not the Most Valuable Pitcher, it's actual merit has never been truly hammered out. Some people vote for the best pitcher, some people vote for the most valuable. Nobody who has won it didnt deserve consideration, but there were plenty of guys on losing teams with better peripherals and ERA who lost out due to W/L and team failure

    CC will finish 3rd. Does he deserve it, probably not. But being the ace on the best team in baseball will have a ton of weight with voters.

    Lee spent more than half his season with one of the worst teams in baseball

    I think a lot of my brethren have been pining for a change out at the closer's role to one of the more flashy closers. But Mo just continues to produce. He is our most important free agent and needs to be kept

    And I dont know how you look at Kelly's yr as anything but a negative. He didnt "hold his own" vs AA. He was miserable at AA. And he didnt get his innings up, so he has to play fall ball. And he never showed the improvements month to month that you look for with a player adjusting to a league. The only thing he gained this yr is experience, which is something he was going to gain regardless.

    I think he is safely, and I repeat safely a #3 starter in the bigs. There is something to be said about a 20 yr old kid in AA projecting to be a truly reliable pitcher in the big leagues. But is he on the stuff scale as Buchholz or Lester? Absolutely not. Buchholz and Lester can top out at 98mph and sit at 95mph, Kelly maybe tops out at 95, but sits mostly 91-92. And both Buch and Lester have lights out breaking balls, while Kelly makes his hay off a change. I honestly think Kelly's being protected by the sox to eventually use him as the key chip in a deal to bring in a major power talent. By making him untouchable, you kinda bump up his stock a bit

    http://riveraveblues.com/2010/08/2010-post-draft-top-30-prospects-33792/ Its a good read

    Tick off another day from the calendar. Yanks win
  21. jacksonianmarch
    And being a righty power guy in Fenway wouldnt help his cause? Fenway is a righty's dream
  22. jacksonianmarch
    Pretty much. I think Yankee fans in general have taken him for granted. His dominance is the top reason why we've won 5 championships in his time here. Games that go into the 9th are over during the regular season. And games going into the 8th in the playoffs are essentially over as well

    Tex better not be hurt
  24. jacksonianmarch
    He was stuck in LA where he was a platoon guy. He didnt really get a true chance until he left LA and went to Philly
  25. jacksonianmarch
    you talking to yourself again? I think Jones is a PED kid, to be totally honest. He ballooned physically and went from a kid with nice power to incredible power, then the lights went out
