    This is suppose to be one game only for Whitley just to stretch the starters out this one time BUT.....what if this kid throws a great game?

    If he pitches a great game, even a good game.....that much more for the
    pitching depth.

    Petit was sent down to make room for Whitley so the team is currently short a back up infielder & Petit cannot be called back up for at least 10 days. So with the thought that Whitley will be sent back down after this game they're saying that either Pirela or Rhysnyder would be called up.

    Please, no more Ryan. He sucks.
    Funny thing....he's supposed to be this very good defensive guy....but I just don't have any memories of him making "great plays" in my mind's eye...and he does make errors.
    This piece of garbage has been stealing money for too long....get him OUTTA here.

    We know about his hitting.......generally speaking ➡He SUCKS!


    And don't hold your breath with Whitley....he's one of the more HITTABLE pitchers the Yanks have used.....with NOTHING else indicating he can turn into anything but mediocre.

    Why the heck didn't they give some other kid with better stuff the spot start?
    Give one of the farmhands a taste of MLB experience.
    Mitchell or Montgomery? The experience should could help them and they also have better stuff than this mediocrity who was never anything. Lol

    Joe, time to make the tough decision, Beltran is now down to 161 & has become the closest thing to a sure out as there is in baseball. How much longer does the team keep sending him out there with hopes that he'll regain his stroke? hitting 150, maybe 125?

    gee whiz....I betcha Girardi and the Yanks would kiss the ground if Whitley could go 7 innings and allow 4 runs.

    Nah, maybe not....this could be one of the more rare games where the Yanks don't score at least four runs.



    lol

    It's completely ridiculous at this point. He just looks lost at the plate.

    Lmao Rick.....lol......I wasn't looking to be annoying. lol
    I was actually serious regarding WHITLEY tonight....lmao...

    For crissakes....just say yes.....lmao...,seriously,..this bullpen is pitching too many innings and what the heck is so bad about a fill-in starter going 7 innings with 4 runs?

    Okay Rick, no more "7 innings, 4 runs" stuff....lmao
    You're a good man Rick.


    Go Yanks!

    Nice to see the Yankees stick it to Tampa Bay, not happy to hear about Tanaka. All hands will have to suck it up to fill the void. Pitchers all over are going down faster than submarines. Relly pulled for Whitley last year hope he can fill a void. Nice job at the dish by B Mac tonight.
