    Line favors the Yankees. Should be a cakewalk but how far will Lynn get is this game. Lets see the Pinstripers send "Big Game James" down in flames. And for the love of God Boner please field a better lineup.

    Three hits in a game will not get this team a victory unless the pitching is a shutout performance.......
    and that is not going to happen with the starters going 5 innings and a relief staff having a tough time
    getting consecutive outs.

    Also, the miscalculation of Judge’s wrist injury & Sanchez’ groin injury & Bird’s batting slump has put
    undue pressure on the subs to perform, offensively & defensively, at the major league level.

    Did anyone notice A-Fraud comparing Voit to Dante Bichette the other day??

    I noticed 3 individuals commenting on the Yankees Twitter feed, about A-Frauds hype of Voit; as if God himself had spoken.

    I replied in return to all 3, a reminder-
    A-Fraud IS a loose cannon, and had earlier in the year compared Andujar to Raul Mondesi.

    I also mentioned (as I did here on t/board during that game) - Imho A-Rod's a loose lipped cannon; & it IS Insulting to compare a talented young rookie, 2A (to a very good player) who IS A FELON.

    Needless to say I was roasted by 52 merciless TweetFk A-Frog apologists. I became the whipping boy like a pig at t/Georgia Big Pig-N-Jig BBQ.

    Here's the payoff pitch: One person & only ONE Person came to my rescue, then that ONE Person followed My Twitter feed. That ONE Person- Jesse Barfield. A true Honor.

    Our Nation & Sports Fans are overpopulated with followers, with a serious lack of Leaders...

    A-Frog is a Fraud who thinks he is a leader.
    Jesse Barfield proved to me HE IS truly a Leader.... ~!°~

    I must be older than beyond my years. In the day GMs only would bring up minor league players who
    we’re fully ready both offensively & defensively to be on the parent club. Today it is obvious there are
    some GMs who do not understand this important fact. Some act with the attitude.....”Let the chips fall
    where they may.” These GMs do not see the larger picture.

    There are a whole lotta people out there who are not capable to process their own ideas and would rather
    be force fed from mindless, superficial voices and take their word as “truth”. Fuck A-fraud and other impotent
    blusterers......who love hearing their own voices. Too many voices out there with no substance!

    Any Yankee Fan who is a realist knows that A-hole is more full of shit than a septic tank. That man should not be permitted on the field offering "advice" to Players. Furthermore Players should be advised that in Yankee History A-hole isn't shit compared to the great players we have seen on the team. When the Yankees acquired A-hole in '04 many jumped on to the "A-hole is a better SS than Jeter" Those backstabbers found out over time as many of us knew Jeter was the Real Yankee Deal. How A-hole has bullshitted his way to where he's at is beyond me.

    Voit reminds me of "Chunk" from "The Goonies".

    With the weather at 100 degrees, both teams are going to get exhausted. I hope we tag on 5 runs in the first inning.

    Announcers (Kay & Cone) rationalizing why Boone is the perfect fit for the Yankee managerial job. If ever have
    I heard a slanted point of view. Guys, concentrate on the game. It is my opinion that Cashman holds the reins
    on Boone. He couldn’t do it with Girardi.

    Shields with a 5-15 record & a 4.55 ERA and Yankees cannot muster a hit through 2 innings. Bird came close
    but Garcia made catch in RF.

    Not to mention that Shields is 36 years old and has been sinking since he signed with San Diego.

    Poor defense, 2 errors, making Lynn work overtime and his pitch count is rising. He gets out of bases loaded jam.
    How long will this last?

    ^^^^ ....
    IF Trashman had half a brain, he would have lunch, dinner and or breakfast daily. And/or- teleconferences with Theo Epstein, Dave Dombrowski, Billy Beane and even Jeter. IF any of these guys would be willing to even give him the time of day, let alone be seen with him in public ....

    It took Trashman 15 years to figure out what Epstein knew at 28 + years of age. I hate to say or admit such, i.e. the enemy one upped us... Not US, rather Trashman. Worse yet, I hate to say King George hired a moron...

    this has got 2b the worst sign in any ballpark or sports stadium, period. If you can think of one worse, I'd love to see it...
    Sad thing is this sign is in several locations in and around Guaranteed Rate Stadium; also the worst name of any sports stadium....
    South side of Chicago, where one must carry a gun to get from the parking lot into the stadium and back again safely...

    This team has returned home asleep. 13 innings so far and only a Torres homer to show for the offense.
