The squeeze was a huge Ivana Trump fan!!!!!!!!!!!! Nice looking lady back in the day I guess, I really don't keep up with celebrities with their clothing perfume or other lines!
Remember those days where this was a dangerous lineup 1 thru 8? Lowest HR and RBI totals actually belong to Ellsbury.
...Yanx have been getting most of the breaks lately...Tex and Arod and to a degree, Gardner have carried this team most of the year.
I also was also "killing" Tex last year and his offensive numbers WERE ugly but only speaking for myself, his wrist probably wasn't still fully healed - IMO - and was still bothering him. But he was playing through it and I WAS calling for him to be dropped lower in the batting order during those struggles....and I won't apologize for that. lol He's healthy now, and also playing for a new contract which is one of the reasons why I thought THIS 2015 team would/should be a considerably better run producing team than last year's debacle.
...Yanx continue to get the breaks...what a bad call by the 1B Ump...that was clearly a check swing by Machado. ...gotta keep taking advantage of these breaks because the worm could turn.
