  1. Just read our game threads, and we’d have no players left on a roster about to shock the baseball world by making the playoffs.
  2. I share your feelings, but remember this: the Yanks have gotten to this point several times, this year, only to stumble and bumble their edge away. They have major flaws just like we do, and time catches up with them just like us. It seemed, to me, like we lost, yesterday, more than the Yankees won. Yes, they got the key hit, when it mattered, but we handed them the opportunity. Maybe, they return the favor, tonight.
  3. Your defeatism is extreme. Perhaps you do this to ease the letdown- should it occur. The team has gone 53-23 in ERod’s last 76 starts, including 18-11, this year. I guess none of those 53 wins were in big moments as all his 23 losses were. It sounds like you’ll be happy, if you are proven right about ERod, today. I’m glad he’s pitching: we need a win. The Sox win when he pitches more than anyone else.
  4. I’ve had doubts, too, but I guess being a fan means different things to different people, which I guess should be expected.
  5. At the risk of sounding disrespectful, so what? We have faults like all teams. We’ve played a tougher schedule than most teams. We have been playing better than expected, which in some weird way seems to get some fans here more upset than had we just stunk like we were supposed to. Newsflash: the Yanks, Jays and Ms have major flaws, too. We deserve the playoffs because we earned it by outplaying most of our opponents- good ones and bad ones by more than the Jays. If we end up losing our slot, it would suck, and yes, we can only blame ourselves, but I will never get the relentless bashing of our manager and plus players on our roster based on one play, one game, one week or month. You’d think the team just went 2-7. The regency effect is something some poster can never shake, I guess.
  6. Our team won 7 in a row, and we lose 2 games, and suddenly we don't deserve anything and are bums. It's one thing to get frustrated or even angry, but to me, real fans keep supporting their team, especially one like this one that has way exceeded almost everyone's wildest expectation.
  7. The pretender fans are back in force, I see.
  8. Let’s see if ERod is the winner I have said he is for years, now.
  9. About Cora is a bum not DHern. Lost cred.
  10. do you honestly believe your own words?
  11. where was that homer when men were on base?
  12. No, 1978. We were up like 9 games but it was down to 4 games. The Yanks beat us 15-3 13-2 7-0 7-4
  13. This might date me, but this feels like that time the Yanks came to Boston and killed us by like 30 runs.
  14. I know. You can’t walk anyone, but I was responding to the singling out of Gardner.
  15. That’s why I said several years not 15.
  16. Gardner has hurt us more than any Yankee over several years.
  17. That goes without saying.
  18. Houck for 3 or Richards for the 9th.
  19. It sure seems that way.
  20. Yes! Wow, way to bear down!
  21. Dalbec should have caught that. Run harder to the spot, then slow down and get right to the edge.
  22. Damn Brett Gardner always kills us.
  23. The replay showed he froze for a split second before his first step. Maybe leaning the wrong way.
