Lineup says it all. 4 DH’s, 3 guys batting 9th.
you know what bothers me the most about Pedroia, everytime I see his swing I tell myself there has to be a hole the size of a watermelon in there and no-one can seem to find it.
Olney said last year Yanks were held to two or fewer runs 33 times and so far in about half the season its been 28 times.
Pin: Cano has looked much better lately
Id MUCH rather see Gardner than Melky in there. Melky pulled two hits out of his ass last night who gives a fuck.
Waldman has no confidence in Da Razzinator.
Neither do I… Im so down on this team in general right now. Just flat out angry.
that homo jacoby will be on 2nd in a seconds.
COME THE FUCK ON RASNER
Fuck you Drew you took strike 3. Turn the hell around and walk back to the dugout you jackass.
I’ve got a feeling that Darrell Rasner might not be up to today’s challenge.
We dodged a bullet there. I wonder if this pussy ass offense will man up for once.
Wow, Damon backing up his talk.
Finally Jeter can tap the ball to 2nd with a clear conscience.
Sherman and Kellerman were saying based on line drive frequency and swings and misses Cano has been unlucky this year whereas Jeter on the other hand has not been unlucky, he has regressed.
Beckett pitches around Abreu to get to Rodriguez. That a real Satchel Paige move.
That’s awesome!
clutch!
What an awful swing. But I’ll take the 3 runs.
Does anyone ever not beat out a bunt against us
How bout Waldman’s vest?
Stupid Yankees. They had a chance to play A-B-C ball in the first inning and Jeter wrecked that. Sterling had me so pysched too after the leadoff double by Damon for some A-B-C ball. So what if they scored three instead?
Wow, Damon with a hurt shoulder and ribs, if he’s out the season is probably over.
This kind of shit isnt even fucking fair. Weve been hurt by injuries twice as bad as any other team. Anybody who says different is a fucking liar.
Doesn’t look to serious, but that’s just icing on the cake.
Hope Damon is okay.
Don’t ever remember seeing a ball hanging on top of a wall like that, Wow! Would’ve been a great play by Damon if he caught it as it rolled off.
Or would it be a hit rolling off the top of the wall into Damon’s glove? Hmmmmmmmmmm.
Fuck this season. Please sell at the trade deadline.
I think it’s a hit once it touches the wall.
This bunting issue is ridiculous.
girardi, you need to chill. You too kranker. Relax and think some positive thoughts.
like Ellsbury getting caught.
Wonder if anyone thought we were going to win this game?
So what happened to Damon who is one of the very few Yankees that have not disappointed recently.
There isn’t all that much to sell. Just so long as they don’t buy Sabathia.
I thought they would win up 3-0. Spirit of ‘76!
No I meant before the start
Wow if Kay is right and Varitek was staring down Arod after he scored on the sac fly from Giambi he needs to chill the FUCK out. Thats all cool he thinks hes big and tough but hes just taking shit too far and eventually somebody is going to beat his white trash ass bloody. What a jackass.
So close.
Bad Sterling! Bad!
Sterling busted in his pants and made you think it was gone huh?
Serling must die or at least be forbidden from ever giving his stupid home run call
What % does Serling ever get right? I’d guess about 33%
That the best the Yankees and WCBS can do, eh? Sterling & Waldman, in the biggest market. Sad.
Good ABs this inning.
Serling
Good one. Listening is a Twilight Zone.
Agreed that Varitek has crossed the line from having a chip on his shoulder to being a giant baby.
I actually like them, but Sterling should learn how to warn us when it is close.
Free pitch!
Cano can’t catch a break.
Sheesh. Nice play, unfortunately.
MRI for Damon.
If Melky is hurt, who comes in?
That is, is Christian still on the roster?
Bases loaded Molina up-Oh good. Last july 4 it was Nieves in a similar situation and a game totally mismanaged by Torre
Wasn’t Christian sent down? Jeter then.
I think the bench is Moeller and Betemit.
I want Varitek buzzed up in in. They should not be taking ANY of this shit the red sox are giving.
What did anyone expect there.
Should we have PHed Betemit there with Moeller on the bench
Christian is at Scranton.
At least Rasner had a nice rest.
Wasn’t there a stat that red sox pitchers have hit twice as many Yankees as vice versa?
I want Arod to kill Vagitek. I hate that son of a bitch.
61. yes that stat is 100% true. Yankee pitchers just dont seem to do that shit, im hoping the Joba and Hughes era changes that though.
Beckett wasn’t try to hit Melky, boys and girls. He’s an automatic out.
Does it matter? Let his faggot ass know he needs to be more careful.
Also, Rasner hit Pedroia earlier in the game.
‘cause what Rasner needs to do is put more people on base.
K so its our turn. Get it done Rasner.
Can we get some chin music NOW?
Okay, enough of this AAAA pitcher. Next!
If Joba hits Youklesness he’ll cry like one of those politicians who are always feigning outrage whenever a charge is levled at them
in girardi we trust:
All my faggot friends now feel like kicking your ass . . . and, trust me, they can.
Happy holidays, everyone. I’m off to get soused in the streets of New York.
There’s the season.
Does Girardi ever think ahead?
72 i dont even know what that was? and i doubt it.
A-Rod has an OPS+ of 164 and his playing gold glove caliber defense. What has he done wrong?
Not to mention he’s doing Madonna. Score!
This is not Girardi’s fault. The Yankees suck and no manager can do anything about it.
75. Just that you shouldn’t pay Varitek the compliment of calling him gay. Doesn’t reflect well on you.
Bye for reals.
Yeah not much of the blame should fall to Girardi.
yeah whatever frog dont be so sensitive
This is not Girardi’s fault.
Fault is a strong word. Cashman made it clear through is actions that this season would be what it would be with the starting pitching options we had. Hughes and Kennedy turned out to be worst case. We caught lightning in a bottle with Rasner for a bunch of starts but he’s at best a 4.50-5.0 ERA guy in the AL East. It certainly doesn’t help that these guys can’t hit with any consistency…
Yeah not much of the blame should fall to Girardi
This game? This season?
Who should it fall on? Oh surely not! You wouldn’t finger saint Brian. would you?


What is the point of having Moeller if you don’t pinch hit for Molina right there?
Man, the Jets are going to have a great defense this year. Kris Jenkins, David Harris, Calvin Pace, Shaun Ellis, Gholston, Kerry Rhodes, Revis. Look at all that Pro Bowl Caliber talent. I can’t wait. J-E-T-S. Bring on training camp, baby.
Yeah this season was gonna go as far as our young pitching did. Unfortunately not only did they not put up our offense has been flat.
Hey we got 3 runs and 3 now 4 hits today, Jeter just got a HUGE hit; the team is tired from all that offense.
The giants are going to have a circus of a season if Shockey doesn’t shut his mouth or if we dont find a new home for him. I can see it now. Shockey in Eli’s face the 1st time he gets overthrown.
Girardi does stay with his pitchers a real long time. He left in Pontoon the other day after he gave up the first two run HR which was not very smart. I guess it would be second guessing to pull Rasner before the HR.
This team would be fine if it could hit. The pitching is no worse than last year.
Are the Yankees hats more blue today than usual?


Who puked on that roof?
Yeah i think so. Lighter shade it looks like.
Frog is a beatch. Rasner is a below avg pitcher at best. Boston Sux is a great chant because it refers not only to that despicable organization but to the whole awful city of Bahston and everyone who resides therein. Vagitek should get hit- I was so hoping ARod took him out in a collision and ARod earned a few points in my book because it looked like he was thinking the same thing. My updated most hated (Schilling isn’t included): Vagitek, Petunia, Youklis, Becket.
Of course this season is on Cashman. He put to much hope on his farm system and they failed. I hope he gets creative at the trade deadline with moves that help the team for the future. I really don’t care if they throw away this season.
This team really does quit when there down. their at-bats since going down look like shit.


Beckett. Youkilis. Pedroia. Watching my baseball team lose to this baseball team is a very painful thing.
Next two games on national TV? FOX Saturday and RSN Sunday? Boring.
Anyway, after the first inning the hitters resumed their Thursday night sleep. The post game closed door meeting only worked one inning.
Will Girardi survive July if this malaise keeps up?
is that a real question?
Hey the first inning was very tiring. Its like when a horse runs a really fast opening quarter he’s got nothing left at the end.
Wow, this place is unbearable today.
