Why does Gibbons insist on having Halladay and Burnett throw 110+ pitches a game. You would think this would be the time of year to utilize the expanded bullpen.
 
Damn you Janssen, I trusted you. Why must you do this to me.

Fuck the Tigers, fuck this shitty bullpen for fucking Halladay over again.
 
I won't blame Halladay if he asks for a trade. Poor guy could probably be up to 150 wins if not for the shitty team he plays on.

You're the one who wanted Halladay out of the game.
Can't have it both ways.

I know, I know. I am a hypocrite. I didn't think Janssen and Accardo would be this poorly, I guess they are overworked.
 
WTF? The Jays lost that game!? WTF!!!?

I change the fucking channel for the second time in 3 days and they lose games they should have won.

FAIL!

Adrien Beltre and Richie Sexson for Halladay. Take it or leave it. The offer comes off the table at midnight tonight.

Beating this shitty Jays team don't mean squat.

Step 2 begins tomorrow.

Which is more embarrassing, not making the playoffs with a 300 million dollar payroll or losing in the playoffs to a team of perpetual grit all-stars with a 300 million dollar payroll? I suppose it's 6 of 1, half a dozen of the other.

So does A-Rod get to 60 homers this season?
Click to expand...

There are 19 games left for the Yankees this season.

A-Rod needs 8 home runs to hit 60.

He's hit 7 home runs in his last 6 games.

Hmmmmm....

Oliver Perez >>> Atlanta Braves. Holy crap on a stick.

And the funny thing is he may not be in the postseason starting rotation! :lol :lol

Nah, he'll be there. Barring any injuries, it'll undoubtedly be Pedro, Glavine, El Duque, Maine, and Perez.

My god. I would not want to be the pranker in this one. Them's killing jokes right there.

Is it wrong that I laughed at that?

wow you're delusional

You think it's out of the realm of possibility that he hits 13 more home runs in his last 19 games?

It's September 11th, and the Yanks have yet to play their game tonight. A-Rod has 8 home runs so far this month.

I say you're delusional if you think it's not possible.

It's possible, but improbable. He'll probably cool off for a few games and then it'll be incredibly hard to get to 65. I could see A-Rod hitting 60 just barely, though.

he may be hot but 13 homeruns in the last 19 games would be remarkable, even by A-Rod standards. I doubt he even hits 60 homeruns (not to take anything away from his awesome season)

No one keeps that kind of pace over that long a span.
 
If only Arod were drafted by Colorado, he'd be right on Barry Bonds' heels about now.

Indians magic number is now 13. Super rookie Asdrubal Cabrera is batting .440 from the 7th inning on and terrific in the field. The guy is amazing (thanks again Seattle).

Payrolls of all the AL contenders:

$153M - 87-57
$109M - 84-59
$62M - 83-60
$212M - 81-62
$95M - 77-66
$106M - 75-66


Niiiice.

America wants the Yankees in the playoffs.

America wants you gone from OT until next baseball season for your Konexian transgressions against humanity.

America will very likely get what it wants in a matter of weeks. :D

As for A-Rod, I don't think he'll crack 60...but it will be the greatest thing ever if he does. Actually, I don't think he'd leave anymore if he in fact ended up having the all-time greatest season of any Yankee hitter in history. Any bad thoughts he'd have would be replaced by his forever worship as the best Yankee hitter ever. This is Babe Ruth, Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio forever worship territory here.

...meh, anyway, fuck all of that shit; gotta keep smashing fools this month. TORONTO IS NEXT

You seem out of touch, my friend. I've been to Chicago, Philly, Baltimore, D.C., and Virginia. NO ONE wants the Yankees in the playoffs. They must pay for their crimes.

America wants you gone from OT until next baseball season for your Konexian transgressions against humanity.

Even if I am struck down, there are fans who will rise up and assume the mantle like Link and Cajole. Like my man Marlon said, "If the same situation came up I'd do the same thing again".

BTW Cloudy really killed Manning on Thursday, right? :lol
 
Wow, just wow. After last night i thought the tigers reached the turning point...when i get out of class come back to my dorm to check the score...10-0. I guess we deserve it when you can find better pitching on a high school team (cept verlander obviously, i didn't mean to offend him). Also outside of New York, and people that have once lived there the Yankee lovers are few. I'm happy to say it...its a Red Sox nation not a Yankees one anymore.
 
Did you know that the Texas Rangers have the second best record since June 13? (Just behind the Yankees)

I won't be surprised if they take tonight's game too.
 
Glavine might come back in 2008!

http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=3013899

"I'm having as much fun as I've had in a long time, and that's a big factor for me,'' Glavine, 41, told the Post. "It's a fun team to come to the ballpark with every day. All the factors are there [to come back].''

Glavine, who won his 300th game on Aug. 5, says he has two criteria for returning next season -- how well he's pitching and how he's feeling physically. "That's the question I have to wait and see, but as far as going out there and having fun and doing the things I have to do to be successful, there's been nothing there that makes me think I am going to walk away," he told the Post.

And as much as Glavine wants to spend more time with his family, he says his wife and their four children, aged 6 to 13, support another season.

"Surprisingly, my kids are more on the side of me playing next year than not. I think that is in large part because they understand what I am doing," Glavine said, according to the Post. "They enjoy coming to the ballpark and being around the guys. They like the game of baseball. I think they are really starting to figure out that, 'Dad's a Major League Baseball player and it's pretty fun going to the games.'

Fuckin' A Tigers :(

Our pitching has just been absolutely horrendous this year. If we had this year's offense with last year's pitching, we'd be a force to be reckoned with.
 
holy shit captmcblack is in the middle of an EPIC "Everyone hates the Yankees" rant right now. I can't even post it here because it would question his tenuous grip on sanity. Seems like the potential thought of Yankee regular season oblivion has gotten to him. :lol
 
Yeah, epic.

Again, say anything and everything you want.

Very soon, you won't be saying anything in the OT until April.
And everyone is looking forward to that.
