    Way to go Joe....leadoff single and then PH for Romine (vs a LHP) who already has homered with a guy batting below .200 who strikes out ALOT, Teixeira.
    Asshole.

    Don't mind the Youth train from Scranton to the Bronx. Do mind the brainless minds making
    these moves in search of more finds. It's all about the business end of their product!

    Tex pinch hitting there is what worries me about Girardi when he's going to be handed a lot of young players. He has this absurd devotion to these veterans even when they haven't produced all season.

    once again A-Roid tried to pull the outside low pitch, in lieu of serving up a line drive to the RF-CF gap, or RF fkng period.....

    yeah, he got one RBI, bigfkngdeal, he could of had 2, maybe 3....

    this is what i will always remember when I hear A-Fraud's name, a sucker for the gopher pitch, like the 2 strike ankle high swing, just prior.....


    FK YOU Fraud Cheat, scandalous POS...! I'm thrilled to never see his ass on a diamond again, after manana.....

    It'll take some balls to bring in Heller for the 8th with a 4-2 lead.....nope, not gonna happen.
    He stays with Cessa for another inning.

    Okay...maybe tomorrow.
    Anxious to see him - by all accounts I've seen and looking at his numbers, he's a legitimate top late inning reliever with two very good pitches...fastball and slider.
    I hope he isn't up here just for emergency duty and they plan on sending him back very shortly.
    I don't see why he can't be used in mid relief....jeez, even Kirby Yates amoung others had their chances.

    Dellin reminds me of John Wetteland, that guy used to scare the hell out of me when he came in to close.

    Future young hitters suddenly look very good. Next bunch of prospects we get in trades need to be young starting pitching but first they need to get seve's ass back up here and back in the rotation.

    No doubt, Yankees were on the wrong side of the scorecard but came back to win. Not the best stats from Pineda but he did limit damage. Very surprised that Ellsbury got a timely hit.
