    Buchholz stinks but with the Yankees horrendous situational hitting, Cessa on the mound and this game in Fenway I think the Yankees are going to get smoked by the Boston offense tonight.

    Could be a soft ball game up there tonight. Note to ESPN: reading your propaganda this am. Yes the Yankees lost last night but they are not necessarily "done" Yes Boston won last night but they have still not won anything. The Bostons must still play 16 games against their East Rivals and shit can happen.

    Watching the elders play is like watching paint dry. Will they make Buchholz look
    like Cy Young?

    Stat per yes broadcast crew after Sanchez did his second GIDP 2 for 23 with RISP.Cessa seems to have got settled but the God Damn offense is hitting like April through July.

    I've had it with Gardner and Ellsbury at the top of the lineup.

    ^^^^So has the whole Yankee fandom. These two have consistently killed rallies and seldom
    set the tables for big innings. Useless idiots.

    Have you ever seen two leadoff guys put up more o fers than these two clowns? Not to mention you can't have two .250 hitters in the 1 and 2 spot. It's just absurd.

    Last night ended the season so there's no reason to get too upset anymore. I was pretty sure Boston would win tonight and the best I can hope for is the Yankees to salvage one game in this series. Overall they don't have the players to match up to these top teams.

    Reality is Gary Sanchez, Bird, Castro, DD are a start. We need to bring in pitching, I would resign Clippard, and we have Warren, Bring back Chapman to go with Betances and then fill with best rookies, not guys like Kirby Fucking Yates...

    I turned it off, unless a miracle happens. I have better things to do with my time.

    There's still a lot of trash that needs to be taken out. They without a doubt need another front line starter and figure out what they're going to do bullpen wise. I agree you have a nice start with Sanchez, Bird, Didi and Castro. Beyond that there's third and an entire outfield that needs to be turned over. Ellsbury's contract is an albatross and Gardner's crap makes it worse. You have to move him and find a bat to put in left field.

    A piece of ridiculous worth pointing out again. Chase Headley has a higher OBP than Jacoby Ellsbury.

    Note to MLB Network: Pleasac is a complete idiot talking out of ass. Talking shit about Toronto tonight changing his tune and talking shit about Boston while trash talking the Yankees. Quick pitch excepted I think that MLB Network is just as fucked up as ESPN.

    ...^^^ I caught his bs. MLB network is becoming a joke quicker than expected, depending on one's point of view. BSPN is still hard to stomach as well. A Fan's got to get their fix somewhere, those 2 Networks can't; bad journalism to begin with; topped with horn blowing homers.

    Enjoy the stats, but can't handle more than half the team of blow hards...kind of like being stuck with NESN, to watch this series, (which has been the case).

    FU-Shrek, you're still juicing you fkng fraud= FU Boston, ...

    ...yeah, they had a good run for awhile but it's pretty much over now...still nice to finally have a Yankee player to get excited about every time he comes to bat. (Sanchez)

    ...OBP has been this team's problem all year...they are 24th out of 30 teams in OBP (.314)and with RISP they are 28th. (.309...league average is .339...Red Sox .372) Headley leads the was at .333 while Tex .289 DiDi .303 Castro .304 are the worst.


    ...another telling stat; though he's been gone now for 42 games, Beltran STILL leads the Yanx with HRs (22).

    Sanchez looks like the real deal. I'll take that a build off it. Just can't go through another year with Gardner in left hitting at the top of the lineup. He's not even adding a burst of power here and there amymore.
