  1. Gordon is 26 years old and still can't decide to wear his pants on his ankles or just below the knee or just above the knee. On the ankles, today. Just what is the Hamilton stradegy, now? Use him up before you need the speed late in the game?
  2. So what if Judge was coming up! Varland struck him out and Judge hit a homer.... off the rookie, too, like 54 other homers off someone. 80 pitches and you bring in Jax to ruin the debut. May as well let him ruin it, or really pitch in the Big Leagues. 80 pitches. Had just given up only his 3rd hit of the game to the lead off batter in the 6th, in the 6th! and followed that up with his 7th K on a swing and a miss - 2 swings and misses, a called strike and a foul. 80 pitches. And you pull him. Still crusing, and you pull him. 80 pitches. Who is afraid? Not the rookie. He is ready. Baldelli is so desperate right now. The desperation is right in front of him. 80 pitches and you pull the new guy, too. Ahead 3-1 in his debut, and cruising..... and you are afraid of Judge, who he has already struck out 149 times this season and once to Varland, and he can only tie the game with homer, a game Varland has basically owned, and sit him down. Damn. He got to watch Jax tank his game. I bet that was a lesson.
  3. Dodger Stadium is endless and LOUD! I mean, I have never witnessed anything like it at a baseball game. If he is batting, it starts as he walks to the plate, and ebs and flows as the pitch comes..... but never stops and gets super loud. Only the Twins and Astros fans seem to have a selective memory.
  4. I know what we are doing here. We are treading water, waiting for Randy Dobnak to come back and be the anchor of the staff with his long term contract. I don't have to say a thing. The previous commentors said what was needed. Great posts all. Bravo.
  5. Hamilton getting the most out of a rare at bat with one swing and out.
  6. Aw come on! We are still in second and percentage points ahead of Chicago with a loss. Let's see. win 4 lose 6 win 5 lose 3 win 1 lose 3 and 4 more games before the Royals. It is right in front of us.
  7. Ya but...... but..... where would we be without him? Like KC, that's where. He is soooooooooo valuable, and that is why we pay him! And want him back! What is that river in Egypt called, again?
  8. In Pagan's defense, two of the 3 balls could have very well been perfectly placed edge of zone strikes just barely touching the zone by the robot.
  9. I can't see even an ounce of Twin left in Hicks. Totally absorbed as a Yankee now.
  10. Another chance to be a hero for Correa..... with men on base. Tying run at the plate. With his second homer it would be 3 meaningless RBI.
  11. Just like a FO to shift blame and not own that they picked all the players and liked them all thing considered. That was the focus of Joe Maddon's interview that is getting quoted a lot. That is one weird comment to put out there, saying the guys you pick and develop are afraid of failure.
  12. There goes the shutout. Looks like we the Yankees have the best shortstop this 4 game series.
  13. One idiotic comment on base size from Perkins. The distance between first and second - and second and third - is 4 1/2 inches closer. 3" more from the foul lines, and the 3 inch increase of the second base bag is split 1 1/2 both ways.
  14. Man, too bad there wasn't a play on for the pick off. Ryan had him with nobody to throw it to and had to wait.
  15. Ryan expresses what he thought of the ball four call - "mother****er" There goes the no-hitter.
  16. He knows that RBI are meaningless, and waits until there is no one on base on purpose.
