    Damn. Right down the middle.

    Nice to see the D come through, but the Richards gives it right back. Need the DP, here.

    Make me wonder, if he'd have done any better, had we brought him in, yesterday.
  4. moonslav59
    Same thing we did yesterday, so again, I ask, why do the Yanks "deserve" to be in the playoffs? Why are the "better than we are?" We've played a tougher schedule than them, as of now, and we are tied. I'd expect Yankee fans to be saying all I've read, here, but I've never seen so many Sox fans diss their own team, when they have played so well all year.

    Every freaking inning we take the lead, we start off walking the first guy.
  6. moonslav59
    Can someone tell me why the Yanks "deserve" to be in the playoffs?
  7. moonslav59
    bam!!!!
  8. moonslav59
    Time for Schwarber to come through.
  9. moonslav59
    I know we get bad calls that help us, too, but it always seems lop-sided in big games.
  10. moonslav59
    Exactly!
  11. moonslav59
    Using Green in the 7th is a good sign. Hitting him would be even better.
  12. moonslav59
    Way to shut me the f*** up, VAZ!
  13. moonslav59
    Can we get a big hit when we need it, or are we going to keep playing this snake-bitten s*** role forever?

    I'm not making excuses for ERod. He's had more than his share of piss poor starts, but there was a time, last year when it wasn't certain he'd ever pitch again. He missed a full season. He came out of the gate pretty well, as the team won 5 of his first 6 starts (3.82 ERA), but then he hit a wall. Starting June 5th, the team won 8 out of 9 starts, so can we drop the "never comes up big" rants. Those wins were against some very good teams: @NYY HOU @ATL @TBR NYY @OAK @LAA (the only loss) @NYY NYY Sure, he got lucky in some of those starts with big run support, but afterwards, he had some tough luck losses, too. 5.1IP 2 ER loss to TBR when the pen let up 6 runs. 6.0IP 1 ER @SEA in a 5-4 loss. He gave us 6 shut out innings @ TBR on Sept 2nd, but there are some short memories, here. (4-0 win).We won his last start vs the Mets (4.1 IP 2 ER). I'm not going to argue against anyone not wanting him back, next year or not wanting to offer him the QO, but he is not the guy to blame for this year's problems, especially against the Yanks.

    I never denied or even implied we had no problems. I, for one, have a bigger issue with fans like you than our bright GM.
  16. moonslav59
    So, Toronto and Seattle deserve to be? Why?
  17. moonslav59
    So, the 3 wins against the Yanks this year were a mirage?
  18. moonslav59
    You guys are brutal.
  19. moonslav59
    Taking Vax’s option does not mean we keep him, but I agree the budget can be used better. Some players you listed are very far away, and we can probably guess a few might be duds or nothing more than told players. I wouldn’t be surprised if Bloom again seeks almost all one or two year deals, but to get the best of the best we will likely have to large and long on a pitcher. We could go shorter term with an older guy, but then the chances of decline or injury are greater.
  20. moonslav59
    Big DP & K. Nice start by ERod.
  21. moonslav59
    SEA up 5-1 in the 9th and trying to stay afloat.
  22. moonslav59
    There are better ways to shorten the game, but this rule does help, and it's the same for both teams.
  23. moonslav59
    We are 3-1 in games against Montgomery, this season. Our loss was 5-3 in a 7 inning game where Jordan let up 3 ERs in 4.2 IP. With ERod starting vs the Yanks, we are 3-0 winning 7-3, 4-0 and 6-2. Why not try to think about positive things? Career, ERod is 8-6 with a 3.73 ERA. Montgomery is 1-2 with a 3.91 ERA vs BOS (0-1 4.62 in Fenway)
  24. moonslav59
    The way Stanton and Judge are hitting, we ought to think about walking or hitting them nearly every AB. The rest of the Yankee hitters are miles below these two guy's level. Be careful with Gardner, Sanchez and maybe LeMahieu, but yes, make Stanton and Judge as uncomfortable as possible, or just put them on 1B.

    The thing about Wong is, I have no idea how well he does with pitchers. If he's worse than Vaz, it's a bad decision.
