    This Diamondbacks Team just lost two to the Marlins, should be like taking candy from a baby, ah shiy, just remembered that the Diamondbacks took two straight from the Yankees in April/May. Hold that candy from a baby bit, Happ is pitching tonight.

    With the Yankees’ rotation in tatters & overused relief corp being stretched to its limits, the team
    still prevails. It’s time for some payback for these D-backs. So let’s get it done.

    Tomorrow's game should be (s/b) a gut check vs Greinke, whose quietly putting together another solid year. His SO/W ratio is nasty....
    Imagine if Greinke wouldn't of sold out for that FAT Contract and stayed with the Bums.
    Greinke's rationale for going to AZ was/is total bullshit....

    What am I thinking? We just had four solid gut checks in Boston that didn't turn out too well...

    Been monitoring MLB Network since 19 AM Eastern now at the four hour mark. Per Joel Sherman there ain't much out there for the Yankees at the the 25 plus hours remaining. Also heard a report that the Astros and Giants are talking on Bumgarner. If they (Astroa) acquire Bumgarner or Bauer and the like and the Yankees can't counter aint going to be looking good come post season time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Was having Teixeira for the 09 Season worth giving up Trout???

    Here's a piece of trivia.

    Trout over the last 3 seasons, (age 25-27) has posted a 1.085 OPS.
    Only 7 players in MLB History have fared better, in their age 25-27 yrs.
    1- Babe Ruth 1.294
    2- Roger Hornsby 1.126
    3- Jimmie Foxx 1.118
    4- Hank Greenberg 1.112
    5- Lou Gehrig. 1.109
    6- Frank Thomas 1.094
    7- Todd Helton 1.087
    8- Trout. 1.085

    There's and old Country Tune by Carl Smith with a line " I overlooked and Orchid, while searching for a rose". I never cared for Tex, too many days riding the sick books, would not adjust his hitting. I'll bet Mr. Cashman can shred some light on that one.

    I wonder what BaBoone's saying to pump up the boys after a daze of rest. ???
    I bet that was one quiet trip on the way back from Boston.

    I am still stunned. - I know get over it; water under the bridge.
    Like pretending you weren't run over by a car or train, just fo-get-bout-it, shit happens.

    I feel like I just slept off a brutal thugging from last weekend, or woke up from a trainwreck and imagined the Yanx got beat worse than they've ever been beat in the History of their storied rivalry, and the onslaught continued for 3 days. Damn, I'm glad it was only a dream. I can handle that.

    Best to shelve LaMahieu so he'll be available for the Boston Series.

    Definitely....^^^^

    I was hoping to see how DJ was going to handle Grienke.

    BaBoone needs to start pulling rabbits out of his ass come the Bronx hunting of Redcoats ....
    Like asking a 10 yr old to take the controls of a 747. But he does have the experience. He's played "Flight Simulator" on his PC and logged 1,000's of hours....

    BaBoone and Staff should ask to be fired.

    I checked this game on the TV, set the auto-tuning early this morning to automatically change channels.

    I checked an hour ago, noticed this game was no longer on the online directory, and was pre-empted; replaced with another great old rivalry, the Cubs vs Cardinals.
    Not what I had in mind, and not gonna' sit through Gameday/cast to suffer.

    Goldschmidt finally caught afire.
    From July 22 to July 28, Goldschmidt slugged six home runs (all in consecutive games), drove in 13 runs and had an average of .345 with a 1.353 OPS.


    On with the Endwell, NY 2016 Little Lg World Series...
