Did you mean, you took the Twinkies?? It's ok if you did....~!!~ I don't blame you even in June. Imho- the 018 Yanx are pretenders to the throne. No Starting Pitching. This Team wins 2/3rds of Games via Offense. An offense that's seems to not know what small ball is- Too dependent on the Long Ball. Too many men LOB, too many stranded RISP, unable to drive in runs when the opportunity presents itself... Lack of self-discipline at the plate, too often. Inconsistent Defense Base running miscues. When they get on base, no one knows how to steal a bag... Did I say no Starting Pitching??? An Amateur puppet Mgr. A GM who's unable to Cash In 59-6 with Quality Starts; but 1/2 of those were dependent on putting up an avg of 5+ runs per game....
Anyone remember this shithole?? Take a good look at the seats beyond CF. The Jays couldn't sale enough tix for anyone to sit in those cheap seats. By far the worst stadium I've been too. Olympic Stadium was a cold/hot sauna concrete dungeon, but this, this really sucked...
No rain from Florence but the normal "monsoon August rains" have extended into September. It's been raining every day usually in the late afternoon or early evening. Thunderstorms in this state are not to be taken lightly. I know on the East Coast of Florida they are watching the beaches from Volusia up to Jacksonville!
“Cashman is a genius in obtaining talent”...really? 2010 Obtained.....Lance Berkman, Kerry Wood, Austin Kearns, Justin Maxwell, Scottie Allen, Bartolo Colon, Freddy Garcia, Andruw Jones, Eric Chavez.....most veteran role players with little impact. 2011 Obtained......Chris Dickerson, Michael Pineda, Vicente Campos, Scot Proctor, Hiroki Kuroda..... 2012 Obtained......Diego Moreno, Exicardo Capones, Chris Stewart, Ichiro Suzuki, Casey McGehee, Kevin Youkilis, Travis Hafner...... 2013 Obtained......Shawn Kelley, Vernon Wells, Reid Brignac, Alphonso Soriano, Brendan Ryan, Dean Anna, Kyle Haynes..... 2014 Obtained......Miguel Sulbaran for Eduardo Nunez, Brandon McCarthy, Chase Headley, Stephen Drew, Martin Prado, Esmil Rogers, Justin Wilson, Didi Gregorius, Nathan Eovaldi, Garrett Jones, Domingo German, Johnny Barbato, David Carpenter, Chasen Shreve.... 2015 Obtained......Gregorio Petit, Tony Renda, Dustin Ackley, Ronald Herrera, Aaron Hicks, Starlin Castro, Chad Green, Luis Cessa, Aroldis Chapman, Tyler Olsen, Ronald Torreyes..... 2016 Obtained......Rashad Crawford, Billy McKinney, Adam Warren, Gleyber Torres, Tyler Clippard, J.P.Feyereisen, Justus Sheffield, Clint Frazier, Ben Heller, Nick Green, Erik Swanson, Dillon Tate, Tito Polo, Stephen Tarpley, Juan DePaula, Jin Orozco, Albert Abreu, Jorge Guzman, Zack Littell, Yoiber Marquina... Most of these obtained players were/are role players. Some made the parent club, some have been traded, others have been released, still others remain in the minors.......Mr. Trashman is no genius, just your typical baseball GM trying to find that rare gem among the crystalline. Bottom line: Yankees still searching for 28th World Series title. BTW.....If you find a starting pitcher among these names, notify the player development department.
^^^^^I’m done! But please remember when tomorrow comes, I might have forgotten that I said....”I am done”!!!
^^^^.... I spent the entire summer 3 months worth in 76 bumming around Florida. From sleeping in the lounge chairs around the pool at Don the Beachcomber in Daytona Beach. Sleeping in the back of a U-Haul trailer, (parked behind a vacant supermarket) in St Petersburg. Walking down Highway 1 through the middle of night, from Edgewater to Titusville. I can never forget FLA. Hitchhiking down Highway 1... with no light light in sigh;t no moon no flashlight. Scared to freaking death Gators would be laying in the road undetected, or water moccasins crawling across it. My buddy and I carried our guitars on our backs, with harmonicas in pocket. I have never seen so many cars as outside of Disney World's grand opening, with Casey and the freaking Sunshine Band... Got alot of free rides from State Troopers eho didn't want free spirits in their towns, Got tossed from Epcot for being sloppy drunk....
^^^... X-2 ^^^^.... Damn I'm glad you posted that. Outstanding work Lion. Outstanding, Kudos & Hats Off 2U...
Bad gig, Andujar GIDP with 2 on none out. Stanton follows as we'd expect by striking out. Off to another flying start.
