    The last time Cessa pitched against Tampa he threw a good game with one minor and one major problem. He gave up a two run dinger (minor) and the offense sat on its can (major). Hope he gets better results tonight.

    Flipping Fantastic to see Toe back in the lineup. Toe brings a spark plug hustle to the team much like Jeter did. RE2PECT...

    As I said the other day when Chapman shit the bed I would rather see Yanks take a chance on a born-again Betances...

    The Cesspools back in the Bronx and down goes Kontos down goes Kontos...
    Maybe with The Stroke of Luck Cessa will catch on soon... highly unlikely he will but damn it somebody's got to step up to the rubber soon very soon... Sounds like we might see Sheffield after all??? Then again Sheffield did not look like anything special and gave up a bomb in the Futures All-Star Game. Never saw him throw anything faster than 93 miles per hour, batting practice...

    Right now the Yankee Clutch is Andujar, getting Toe back is a step in the right direction. Those two can turn into a dynamic duo to spark this team. Fuck what Stephen A. Smith said, this team still needs to play for the division in spite of the follies of Bubbles Boner and Cashman. Cessa pitched a nice game against Tampa a while back but got no support from the offense. So get out there and kick some ass tonight Pin Stripers.

    The pitcher is not doing well, Boner has to put on his thinking cap, probably can't find it.

    ^^^^ ....

    As badly as I have badmouthed Cessa, you called it right on the mark Michael... He looked pretty in TB allowing 4 Hits, 0 BB's; over 5.1-IP, & a 2 run HR. As you also noted the offense was anemic in his last game; giving Cessa 1 run a SF Fly, 4 hits, 1 walk & 7 SO's...
    He looked great against Baltimore over six innings allowing zero earned runs. O's offense was not as bad as their W/L record...

    During the Boston Massacre on 8 / 2; Cessa was touched up for five earned runs over 3.1 Innings pitched. Who wasn't shell shocked in Boston; both the offense defense and both SP &RP's...

    If the Yanks can score some runs, make contact, and get more bases hits than strikeouts, Cessa could have this in the bag. He's not an overpowering strikeout pitcher, he relies on his defense puts the ball in play, and has got to keep his base on balls to a minimum. IF- All that can happen He may be the number 5 SP???

    I spoke too soon or rather too late. I actually wrote that OP an hour ago but never posted

    Harold Reynolds doesn't know when to shut the f up. Can you imagine Reynolds, A-Fraud & E.Byrnes together, they all talk as if they have brain damage from steroids or amphetamines, always one up in each other???

    Pretty boy Amsinger and Chris Rose know nothing about this game. Thankfully Rose isn't setting in M-singers lap. , Ampdup-singer is one of the dumbest analyst I have ever heard, and proves his ignorance every time he opens his mouth....
