  1. I don't blame the medical staff for the length of time it takes hamstring injuries to heal....they are pretty unpredictable.
  2. Exactly. That is why you do not throw at the head-in front OR in back. Severino is a bush league jackass.
  3. Its bush league. You don't throw NEAR the head. You throw behind the ass-unless you can guarantee it won't HIT the head.
  4. Looked like another hamstring injury to me....
  5. They can throw at Betts....you just don't throw at the head. Throw it behind his ass. Bush league *******.
  6. You do not get revenge by throwing at the head. Jackass.
  7. Bush league *******
  8. Obviously it would be nice to win 3 or 4, but what we really need is no less than two. Maintains our lead and wipes four more games off the schedule.
  9. Porcello is hitting his spot early on, including Gardner's elbow.
  10. This is the game the Yankees have to win...they lose with Severino on the mound and they are in a lot of trouble.
  11. Swihart was placed on the DL. Butler up.
  12. I thought he looked BETTER, but still looked very marginal. Four walks and a hit batsman in his 95 pitches over five innings. Hardly the kind of starter I want on my team if other options are available. Velocity slightly up...occasionally.
  13. I like him better than Pomeranz whose ERA at the end of May was 6.81.
  14. Yup. But as you said, its likely he is not healthy. It is what it is.
  15. Its not about what Johnson did last night alone or what Pomeranz did in his last start-its what they have done since April. Look at the stats. Its not even close. Furthermore, Pomeranz has lost velocity and he has just two pitches. This team has the luxury of having a lot of good pitchers. Pomeranz is not one of them.
  16. Time has run out for Pomeranz. Had he sucked again during his last start I have no doubt that he would be relegated to the bullpen-or released. This team has a decent chance to make a good run in the playoffs, and I do not see Drew Pomeranz being part of that. Yes, I trust that the management is seeing what all of us are seeing, and that is why I think that he is on the shortest of short leashes. I will not miss him.
  17. The question is, if need be, could he play? The team only has two catchers. Seems it might be prudent to recall someone...just in case. I do not want to see Brock Holt behind the plate.
  18. For all the hoopla about the Yankees bullpen it should be noted that the Sox pen is just 0.22 ERA behind them. Our pen is more than competitive. In fact we are closing in on the Astros pitching staff for best overall in the league. Pretty funny that Yankee fans, at the beginning of the season, were gloating about how stellar their team was going to be after they signed Stanton. Guess that at the end of the day you still have to prove it on the field.
  19. Pomeranz has consistently sucked all year. His current ERA is over 6.5. Its August. Its not going to get any better. Some here are living in the past, but what he did last year is totally irrelevant. Johnson has given this team everything he has this year and has the results, overall, to warrant a spot in the rotation. His ERA is below 4. He isn't going to blow anyone away, and he will have some bad starts, but for a #5 SP he is exactly what this team needs. I would like to see Pomeranz released very soon-as soon as ERod looks nearly ready. He isn't coming back next year anyway, and he isn't going to help this team win a ring this year. I am sure Pomeranz has worked his butt off to get his act together, but the results are not there and they aren't going to be there, not this year. Bye bye Drew......
  20. He has to work early tomorrow...he was there taking it on the chin watching the game with the rest of us.
  21. Sure hope Swihart is OK....we don't really have another competent catcher available besides him and Leon. Very satisfying win....
  22. OB just announced it. Uggh!
  23. One down, one to go...gotta at least split this series. Swihart tweaked a hamstring?? Damn.
