You start the season losing 2/3 three to Houston. Most recently the Mariners kicked your teams a@@ beating two of your better pitchers while the offense failed. Then that Seattle team goes to Houston, pitch King Felix and the Stros hand the Mariners their a@@es. Meanwhile you team gets its a@@ handed to them by a Tampa Bay team that played a day night double header the day before. The base running gaffs tonight were the worst I had seen by a Yankee Team since the '81 World Series. Tonights loss was number 6 of the last 8 home games played against the Tampa Bay Team. Sure hope Tanaka will be a stopper tomorrow.
I will admit I can over react when the Yankees lose, especially the Seattle loses and last nights give away. I realize that they can't win every game but when the Yankees lose to Boston or Tampa I get livid with rage. As I posted before Tanka sacks up, stays calm and though behind today his team stepped up and raked. 1 year ago today the 2013 Band Aid ragbags stood at 17-11 and had scored more runs than the current group which has better personnel. Now lets see them deliver on a more consistent basis. Also getting tired of all those MLB "Analysts" slobbering over Maddon like he's Huggins, McCarthy, and Stengle combined. What I want to see is for the Yankees to come out and pound Tampas can again tomorrow.
I totally agree....Mad-Don is an ass...! Why the Ump did not eject him over McCann's tipped foul ball, is beyond me. I enjoyed seeing the 3rd base Ump, stick to his guns with the Home Plate Ump's call. Relished in the Ray-durs misery, rather Mad-Don's. The Umps showed the ding bat up...IMHO. I think MLB needs to re-call Tampa Bay, from the annals of MLB. Citing, the Trop is just too fugly, and pitiful, and an eyesore; to play MLB on. Carpet, in lieu of natural grass. Take the roof off, and let them play like Mud Sharks, or bottom feeding Rays....Pitiful the logo for the Ray-durs, is a feeble attempt to change to "sunshine" in the sunshine state, in lieu of the bottom feeders, the organization has always been. If I were a Tampa Bay Season Ticket Holder (NOT), I'd demand my money back; and some real dark Ray Bans. Literally Ray BANS.....!
...last year's team over-achieved all year and it was mostly due to pitching...this year's team has allowed 138 runs through 29 games while last year's staff had only given up 118 runs through 29 games. ...also, while I realize that Maddon is "the enemy", he's one of the best managers in the game...and if he were running the Yanx, he'd be considered a God.
I don't doubt the Quality or question the fact, Joe M. is a very good coach. 31 years now in Coaching alone. 29 years of age, when he began coaching. I can't help but harass such worthy opponents, that is all.
