    Let’s hope Tanaka is on today. Snell is their best pitcher of late. The hitting is almost non existent.
    It’s as if the whole team has hit a brick wall. They are stuck!
    BaBoone’s smoke & mirrors is not able to work the magic.....

    Losing last night was another trip and fall (fail) as Houston and Seattle won. To me, Losing to Tampa Bay is on the same level as losing to the O's.

    Got up this morning, jumped on my yardwork early so I could watch the game. Then I see Boners "Tower of Strength" lineup . I wonder if Boner knew that Snell was pitching r if in fact he gave a damn.

    Don't know what is going on, this game is supposed to be on MLB Network but they are subbing with bullshit. Speaking of bullshit it liioks like the Nipper Clipper is off to a roaring start.

    BaBoone is a f’king wuss. Too meek & docile to lead players & to challenge the umps.

    That's because he's the communicative and understanding manager Cashman wanted. Don't rock the boat, I think th players sense this and just don't give a fuck about anything.

    This pitcher has problems pitching every 5th day. What will Yankee management do next?
    Start making exceptions and start this guy & others every 7th day instead with the hope that
    the extra days rest will help. And meanwhile we get to see Cesspool, et.al. pitch those other
    days. The game would be a circus on the mound.....if not already!

    Already Tanka in 1.1 innings has given up 5 hits. The way things look the Yankees will be lucky to get
    5 hits the whole game with the likes of Walker, Higashioka, Robinson, etc.....

    ...yup, it really doesn't do any good to have a good pen if your team is already down by 4-5 runs.
