    ...I don't exactly have a warm and fuzzy feeling about this pitching matchup.

    Yankees record against West Teams now stands at 5-12, now come the Rangers, another West opponent. Going back 3 seasons the Yankees are 9-12 against Texas. Tanaka on the bump, even Frank Sinatra would not sing "High Hopes" .

    Yeah. Tough to be optimistic with what is being dished out on the mound. Looks to be the liking
    of the Rangers. There will be feasting tonight. How's that for optimism?

    Never have been a gambler, don't know how odds are placed on individual games. Even with their recent track record the Yankees are once again favored. I wonder how much money has been won or lost depending on bet placement over the last three series. The Rangers have some people who can mash, and Tanaka has been giving up more taters than an Idaho Potato Farm. See Headley missing again, wonder what is up with that.

    I would be surprised if the Yankees win tonight. Tanaka just is not the same.......and pitching would be
    key to a victory....unless we witness a 15-12 game.

    Never would have thought Tanaka would turn his game around against the Texas hitters. I'll just watch
    and see what unfolds.

    Tanaka is doing well but his offense has not helped him out because Darvish is right up there as well. Yankees need this game.

    So Cashman, beyond making the last out of the 8th this game, what maintains the "Organizational Decisions" to keep him?

    Shreeve, you're not skilled, just damn lucky, that inning could have been really ugly.
