    ...guys, you need to get used to the fact that we now have a female in our presence, and hopefully on a regular basis...so watch your fucking language.

    Opposing pitchers must smile at this Yankee lineup.
    They are really facing a 7 player batting order; Drew & Ryan,
    who are hurled down every Yankee fans' throats, are so
    anemic at the plate that they actually put added pressure
    on the rest of the order.
    Yeah, they may be playoff bound, but oh, how deep will
    they go?

    Squeeze changed her mind abut going out, so I get to watch the game. Looks like another dish of futility again from this feeble lineup.

    Geezus, I thought the Yanx bats were asleep, anemic at best, until this last inning....,

    Drew WTF, how long will the Yanx or any team continue to employee this joke of a hitter. Even if he had a Platinum Glove, it would be damn hard to justify keeping Drew on......

    I've oft said, just wait and have patience, in time things change, ie, time itself is change, but Drew's continued anemic bat and sub .200 batting average, give new meaning to patience..........

    How in the hell does anyone in the Organization justify keeping Drew on the Roster......????

    on the other hand, its good to see Beltran's 5 game hitting streak, (makes up for his sometimes sloppy RF play).......

    then we got Bird, the more I see out of Bird, Severino, even Judge, the more I think the Yanx are on the right track, when it comes to developing young talent. Great to see Bird hit to the opposite field, to drive Carlos in...........

    However- I really doubt the youth movement was NOT a part of Trashman's, and Hanks infamous: "The Plan".......... rather such has developed out of sheer necessity, in Brian's inability to Manage fkn period..........

    Ryan botches a easy inning ending play and costs the Yankees a run. 2-1 Indians.

    everyone recollect Tom Verducci's pre-season picks for the World Series????

    He had the lowly 56-64 Indians going against the Nats........

    the way the Yanx are playing the Tribe, you'd think Verducci was right..... but Cleveland is NOT even as good as their losing record, and this should be a no contest game.....IMHO......
