Re: No Surpise - Yesterday

That should be Cory Guerrin, who’s not impressed me at all with his toe tapping delivery.

Cory who? - 2 days ago

This guy Guerin is a big stiff! Every time he comes in he puts runners on base and gets us into jams. Even with a 9-1 lead. I hope they leave him off the post season roster. The guy flat out stinks as a pitcher!

It’s probably too early to talk about this - 3 days ago

I was going over the list of this years free agents to be and one name popped out at me. Sir Didi. If there’s one player that’s more important to this than Aaron Judge, it’s Didi. I hope Cashman and the Steinbrenner’s realize this and don’t fiddle around and resign him as soon as this season’s World Series is over. I don’t want any other team even thinking of offering Didi a better contract than

Visiting the daughter up north in Oregon. Beautiful state, but a little too much rain for me.

Re: Bring in your aces now Boone! - 5 days ago

Yeah, if it means we don’t get walked off on and gives our guys a chance to score more than one run in the tenth by bringing in some of those guys he was giving the night off. I mean, we’re in this thing to win, not coast to the finish.

I blame this loss on Boone - 6 days ago

And his insistence on givin* half the team a night off. The hitters are one thing, but then he decides to give half the bullpen the night off as well. And we blow a 6-0 lead! FRUSTRATING!

Bring in your aces now Boone! - 6 days ago

Now that we’ve scraped back to take the lead, bring in Ottavino, Britton, and Chapman! Stop fooling around with this team!

Re: Frustrating - 6 days ago

Part of it is Boone’s refusal to go with his ace pen staff. When we’re fighting for best record in AL, I don’t want to see all these minor league relievers trying to hold leads, just bring in the horses that got you here! Or mix and match em, one minor reliever, one regular reliever and so on, but don’t put your game in the hands of all minor league relievers, that’s asinine!

Re: Re:Boone Does Some Tinkering - 6 days ago

I thought we had enough firepower, but Gleybor tried to get too fancy on that double play ball and let the Tigers ( worst team in AL) back in the game. Now hopefully the bats don’t go dormant the rest of the game.

Re: Your Thoughts Please - 14 days ago

I agree Toga, my frustration is their play against some of these teams with records of well under .500. It seems these teams always throw pitchers against us that have the game of their careers against us, I mean there’s a reason these teams are under .500. Our hitters should go into next spring training being fed nothing but curveballs until they learn how to hit a curve. We know they can hit fa

Re: Boone is a GENIUS!!! - 14 days ago

Stanton is being paid wether he plays or not, if the team chemistry is such that we are winning more than losing, I say use him sparingly as to not disrupt chemistry. If he doesn’t like it, he can always opt out of his contract, though I seriously doubt he would. No one would be crazy enough to pay him that kind of money.

Re: Is Oakland That Much Better!!! - 17 days ago

This team better wake up against Oakland pitching, because Oakland is right there in the wildcard race, and if we have to face them in playoffs, believe me, they are not going to be scared of our lineup the way we’ve played against them. Who would be?

Re: This has been a disgusting road trip. - 24 days ago

That’s where I believe he’s too old to relate to the younger (at least than him) pitchers. It’s like he’s afraid to approach them (especially the vets) to give them some insight like, “take your time” or “just throw strikes and let your fielders do their jobs” there are way too many walks to start off innings, and like someone wiser once said, “ the scoring all begins with walks”. I know the.y ha

This has been a disgusting road trip. - 25 days ago

And it’s only going to get worse. After the A’s we get the Dodgers and our starting pitching sucks! Tanaka is not the Ace he used to be, n3ither is CC nor Happ. The front office refuses to pay for front line free agent pitchers and they refuse to trade for front line pitching either, so we are screwed! I hope we enjoy mediocrity during the playoffs because our pitching isn’t going to get us very

Does no one want to comment on how the Yanks are playing? - 26 days ago

So far these last two games, they haven’t played like a first place team. They’ve let the A’s pitchers have their way with them, while our guys have been serving up gopher balls. So either their scouting reports on us have been more extensive than ours is on them or we just don’t match up well against them.

They’re playing like they should’ve stayed home! - 4 weeks ago

They sweep the Orioles, then they come in playing flat as a pancake! Man, how I hate to just give games away, at least show some interest in winning against a decent team! FRUSTRATING!

What the #@$%*? - 4 weeks ago

I just turned on the game and they’re behind 11 - 1 in the fourth? Who started pitching tonight? Charlie Brown?

Re: 17 -2 v O's - another sweep - 4 weeks ago

Why didn’t they challenge that double? - 4 weeks ago

On replay it showed it definitely hit foul. What are they saving the challenge for? It was a two run foul ball!

i have a bad feeling about this - 5 weeks ago

Should take Tanaka out while you still have 3 run lead! When he loses it, it goes completely! Geez! Thanks a lot Masahiro! All those runs should be charged to you! Hopefully our hitters don’t fall asleep the rest of the game now that it’s tied! Damn!

Cessa Sucks! - 6 weeks ago

Don’t know why they continue to carry this guy. They got so many other good relievers in bull pen, why give the Sux a chance to get back in this thing. I apologize mr. cessa. After the first two guys you faced, you settled down. Hopefully you stay in that zone.

Re: I wish I had Stanton’s medical plan. - 6 weeks ago

Oh yeah, then I almost forgot our version of the team mascot, Mr. Ells who hasn’t seen a big league game in almost a year and a half.lol!

I wish I had Stanton’s medical plan. - 6 weeks ago

He can take a whole year off and still get paid for not doing anything! Then you have a great guy like Didi, who even with TJ surgery came back months ahead of schedule. I just think Stanton could be doing a little bit more to get back in the lineup, instead of just kicking back and watching the other guys do all the work. That’s just me venting when I see a guy getting paid that much to do nothi

Re: Hicks Ob DL Again - 6 weeks ago

Don’t know why they have taken so long to bring Clint Frazier back up. Out of the guys they’ve called up recently, he’s got the more potent bat. They didn’t need Ford to play 1st when they have DJ, but with Hicks going down again they need a potent bat to fill in, and that sure isn’t Ford.

The rich get richer - 6 weeks ago

Astros now have a rotation of Verlander, Cole, Greinke, Aaron Sanchez, Wade Miley and Lance McCullers. Are you seriously gonna tell me our pitching staff matches up with theirs ? Even with Luis Severino coming back it would be a stretch. Thanks a lot Brian!

Re: I think it’s about time Judge got out of his funk - 6 weeks ago

I would think that it’s up to the “hitting” coach, Thames, to talk to them and remind them of why they were successful last year. It’s like they completely forgot over the winter how to hit the other way.

I think it’s about time Judge got out of his funk - 6 weeks ago

I can’t remember the last time he hit a meaningful home run. With Sanchez and Stanton and now Voit out, he’s gotta start picking up the slack.

How the heck?? - 6 weeks ago

How the heck does Houston keep trading for these high profile pitchers? First it was Verlander, then Cole, now possibly Bumgarner, Bauer or Syndergaard? Do they have a bottomless pit of prospects that are better than anyone else? How do they keep doing this?

Re: Any Armchair GM's? - 6 weeks ago

If you’re gonna throw Andujar in the trade, then Arizona would be a better target, because Cleveland already has Jose Ramirez at third and you’re not going to move that stud off of third. So, perhaps the rookie of the year and an arm like Jonathan Holder for Robbie Ray, or if they don’t want Holder, then switch him out with loisiga. I wouldn’t want Andujar to stay in AL where he can come back to

Re: SPN reporting - 6 weeks ago

Is there that much of a hatred of the Yankees from other teams? Aside from Boston that is. They traded Happ to us, no problem, so why would they want more from us than they took from the Mutts? They’re not even in the same city, so we’re not eating into their fan base, like we would if we traded for Thor or Wheeler. I don’t get the spitefulness.
