Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted August 4, 2018 Yeah. Yanks should skip Severino for a turn and regroup. Look towards winning the wildcard game. That is the hard part of being in this division this year. You can have the 2nd best record in the entire league and still need a 1 game win Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can have the 2nd best record in the entire league and still need a 1 game win What really sucks is I was looking forward to an actual pennant race and a meaningful last series of the year in Fenway. Oh well. At least if the yanks win the WC game they will get a series with the Sox. Will be underdogs but it's always fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted August 6, 2018 Put it on mute after she was yapping about exit velocityI have to dig up a radio. Havent done that in 10 years. Just horrible. The final straw was her saying that it was 100 yards difference playing 2nd base vs. playing right field for Betts. Maybe 100 feet and she ignores that he takes grounders in the infield all the time, has 14 games played in the majors and was taking grounders at short before the game.

shotsup 830 Posted August 6, 2018 That was FUN. And agreed this SNB team sucks. Spanks up 4-1 and they (spanks) get two on that the " tieing run is at the plate" ?? WTF ? There was more. Horrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I should have clarified,he also had a game tying bottom of the 9th HR on 7-26 also has a walk off walk and has a total of like 91 plate appearances. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ggy1KxykI_Q Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vuduchile 1,940 Posted August 13, 2018 I should have clarified,he also had a game tying bottom of the 9th HR on 7-26 also has a walk off walk and has a total of like 91 plate appearances. Exactly. Its been an amazing stretch for a kid whos subbing for a former MVP. The talking heads this morning are questioning if they should move him to 2nd, Baez to short and bench Russel when Bryant returns. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted August 15, 2018 Yanks playing very well this season, but Red Sox have a 10 game lead right now. Insane that the Yanks may have 2nd best record in the league and will have to play a wildcard game and then have to go on the road. Sox are 78-1 in games they are leading into the 8th.

Insane that the Yanks may have 2nd best record in the league and will have to play a wildcard game and then have to go on the road. Sox are 78-1 in games they are leading into the 8th. The Sox are having an insane season. 50 games over at this point is ludicrous, even more so when you look at their rotation (after Sale of course) and bullpen (not great). I hope that they break the record for regular season wins. Let all the pressure be on them once the playoffs start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,940 Posted August 16, 2018 Big time bush league from Urena yesterday... Bad sh!t any way you slice it. Doesnt have the have good enough stuff to get him out, so he plunks him. If you dont wanna completely puss out and intentionally walk the guy, then just pitch around him. Dont give him anything near the zone and take your chances that hell chase something. If not, he walks anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

posty 2,295 Posted August 17, 2018 Looks like I was wrong on Lance Lynn... "The Yankees traded for Lynn -- despite his 5.22 ERA in the first half with the Twins -- as part of an overall effort to bolster their pitching staff. Now, with the scuffling Sonny Gray sent to the bullpen, Lynn has stepped into New York's starting rotation and stepped up his performance. He's allowed only one run in 16 2/3 innings, with 22 strikeouts to just four walks, in his three outings so far in pinstripes" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
