Game Thread Yankees vs. Blue Jays Sunday 9/24/17, 1:07 pm

Garcia vs. Stroman

Lineups to follow...

 

Yankees need a win to get to .500 with this Blue Jay Team. Not an easy assignment today seeing a pitching match up that favors the home team.

 

...nice to see the Yanx back in the PS...after much reflection, I've decided that I'll gladly accept whatever the remainder of the season gives us. I arrived at this amended attitude after realizing that before the season began, like many of us, I had no real expectations of this team being more than a mere .500 club, much less making the PS.
...sure, we've lost a few games that we could/should have won but that can be said of every team in MLB. And I think it's safe to assume that when the season began nobody would have believed that the 2017 Yanx would clinch a playoff spot with over a week to go in the regular season.
...will I be elated if they somehow win it all?...of course, because that's what we all dream of and tend to expect...but on the other hand, will I dog them if they get bounced in the initial one game playoff or in the first or second round?...no, because I never really thought they'd get this far.

...overall, it's been a great year to be a Yanx fan, regardless of what happens in the next 3-4 weeks.

That didn't take long.....Joe why do you keep putting this piece of Shit in.

 

how do I know, the binder told me so.

Come on Jamie, man up and beat the Jays today.

 

It's always about the Binder with that Idiot.

 

Note to Jaime: guess who may be the first Yankee removed from the post season roster???????????????????

 

How can you walk the #9 Batter??? He better have a short leash today.

 

...Garcia doing his best Garcia impression.

 

Get the Bullpen ready now Joe.

 

When Garcia leaves via free agency and finds another team despite his glowing record, he'll probably claim Griardi disrespected him.

 

Wow I have no words.

 

...5-0, bad guys...football time?

 

The Giants are losing too.

 

Holder, another classic from the bullpen sewer.

 

Mitchell, another POL yard happening.

 

This Team is hard to watch right now.

 

That one game playoff may prove to be a challenge. Though the Yankees swept the Twins, they are on the verge of getting their ass kicked 2/3 by a last place team. The Twins on the other hand are on the verge of a four game sweep against Detroit. The Tigers are not what they once were but the Twains put huge ass whippings on them every game. I'm hoping the Yankees are not on a "we're in the playsoffs so fuck it" but it sure looks that way today. Some folks may need to wake up and smell the coffee.
