    Another former Yankee scalds his team. Sure need Judge back in right field. Just when things were going well a couple of buttheads have to shit all over the game.

    It doesn’t take much for a Yankee relief pitcher to demonstrate how to fuck up his job! Yankee outfielder(???)
    just add insult to injury. Wow. Yankee OF depth really sucks. From a comfortable 8-0 lead to a very shaky
    8-5 lead and it’s only the 7th inning!

    I get tired of hearing Kay justifying & defending Walker playing outfield for the first time in his 10 season career. 9 gms now.

    Imo Kay should be questioning Boone's decision to put a player in any position he has never played b4 on an MLB field.

    Learning and playing a new position should always be done on a minor league field, imho. Unless that player is extremely talented and athletic at any endeavor...

    Just to imagine, this is where we would normally see chasing his tail Shreve on the mound. Thank God he is no longer a the Yankee...

    ^^^^^you are not alone , Matt. If these boneheaded moves are experiments, junk them now.
    BaBoone is playing double jeopardy with these moves.
    Walker is only out there because the braintrust(?) decided to trade the best available subs
    to Toronto(McKinney) and Minnesota(Austin) leaving the Yankees way short in OF help......
    Trashman got temp starters for these kids. Well, just where will these moves get this team?
    If you are thinking the World Series, think again!

    Yanks been doing their damndest to make this a close game. From 8 to 0, now 8 to 5.

    An-just-Du-it-Jar 3-4-3 i.e. 3/3. Just keeps on raking.
    Like to see Nike bring back those "just do it" commercials. An-just-Du-it-Jar deserves his commercial in the spotlight....

    Ah well, today we seen some good stuff, then we seen some not so good stuff. One thing though Andujar remains the most dangerous productive, consistent bat in the lineup. If this kid can get his defensive game on course he'll be another Nettles all around. Good to see GT get some hits again and Bird come up with a bomb. So we think the healing has begun, problem is for how long will it last. At any rate they got a win which counts heaviest.

    Dallas Kackel and the Astros are getting their asses kicked by Oakland 5-0 in the 6th inning. Could be seeing some switching in the AL West and Wild Card today.

    ...as we've talked about before, that's the problem I have with using so many relievers...if you pull your starter early and then depend on 4-5 relievers to finish the game, there's a very good chance that at least one of them will have a stinker...and tonight it was Kahnle.

    I proudly walk around with a #27 jersey on my back. GS has stepped up. Houston Oakland and Seattle are the clubs we will contend against for that wild
    card spot and GS is helping the club keep pace with the win total.
