It's not a case of a half full/empty glass, Cashman put the glasses away and removed a couple of cards from the deck which were obviously not jokers. Lets hope that last nights shameful performance is not repeated. This group looked like a bunch of whipped dogs uttering mea culpas aplenty.
I agree Ron... Are you still fighting with the peanut gallery on the other board. I checked out last night to listen to some videos that Tom posted...lol
...not a fight really, batting practice is more like it...I mean, I would have to be confronted with some legitimate competition for it to be considered a true fight.
8 Call-ups..... Rico Noel -CF Dustin Ackley -LF Jose Pirela -2B Refsnyder -2B Romine -C James Pazos -RP Andrew Bailey -RP Caleb Cotham -RP
...Cashman calls up Rico Noel (he's batting .059 at SWB) but he says he won't call up Judge?... again, you can't make this shit up.
...oh shit, I forgot to sign off and log on again under one of my many other SNs !...DOH ! (Homer Simpson voice)
Cashman is an impudent POS. No logic to his moves, not to mention his 'ambigious' plan! Calling up an .059 hitter! That'll get the job done. lmao BTW......I cannot stand the length of these marathons between these 2 hated rivals! I do not know how you feel about it, but for me, it sucks big time.......what ever happened to the rule to 'hurry up the game'...These 2 teams seem to be absolved FROM THE RULE! a f'kin joke.
HI...I'm Ron's other personality Totus....I often agree with myself but occasionally argue with myself about Pete Rose/HOA and legalizing/normalizing PEDs based on player T-levels.
I don't have an issue with Judge staying where he is right now. If he comes up I don't know where you're playing him. At least Bird serves a purpose and is getting everyday playing time. That being said we're also seeing the growing pains of playing a young player like Bird everyday.
You know when and how people start talking about that "Vote of Confidence" thing, I expect a story spun in either the Post or the Daily News by ownership soon stating what a great job Cashman has been doing. And then, I will just lose my shit. This circle jerk of a GM has ruined to many years for me. This team had exceeded expectations by the beginning of August. Anyone with a gas tank in their car would have to know that Arod's and Tex's tanks must be getting low. But no, we brought up Greg Bird who I think will be a great player for the Yankees personally someday, just not today. Last night pretty much summed up the character of this team, bases loaded how many times and not to cash in. Runner on third with less than 2 outs and get called out on strikes regardless of how bad the umpire was. And then the ultimate humiliation to all Yankee fans, Big Piece of Shit jacks one and at that moment is when I see the image of Ryan Duran, Bob Gibson, Don Drysdale and I wonder what Ortiz would sound like with air leaking out of his lungs because finally someone on the mound had enough balls to take him out.
Nobody goes in on Ortiz. It's completely mind boggling. The Mets pitchers let him tee off on them as well.
...well, where are all these other youngsters gonna play?...4 freaking 2Bmen?...seriously? ...and please justify ti me why Judge should not be called up but Rico fucking Noel should. (again he's batting .059 at SWB) ...sorry, just venting.
