Hate Yankees baseball right now.

screech 05-21-2015 08:45 AM

Ryan Howard had 3 hits and is batting over .250. These are the things I get excited about now.

road doggy dogg 05-21-2015 09:50 AM

Meanwhile, the Tigers avoided getting swept by the BREWERS and now sit comfortably a half-game ahead of the TWINS

Evil Vito 05-21-2015 12:27 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Boy I sure do miss when the Nats were 8 games out of first place. They completely erased that deficit in record time and are now alone in first place in the NL East.

Mets are 10-15 since their 11 game win streak and are just 5-11 against teams with a record over .500.

Can it be April again?</font> :(

screech 05-21-2015 12:46 PM

I like what I'm seeing from the Astros so far. And Jose Altuve is really fun to watch.

ClockShot 05-23-2015 04:02 PM

Girardi cooked the bullpen today so Garrett Jones is on the bump for the 9th inning right now.

Sabathia is all but done and I'm betting Esmil Rogers gets sent down for this bullshit today.

Evil Vito 05-23-2015 04:25 PM

<font color=goldenrod>McCutchen with a 2-run HR off of Harvey in the first.

Welp, that'll be a loss for Harvey. I don't think the Mets are capable of scoring 2 runs most days.</font>

Evil Vito 05-23-2015 04:42 PM

<font color=goldenrod>And the road to recovery for David Wright just got a lot worse. Suffered another setback and now has spinal stenosis.

Could range from something that will clear up with rest to something that will actually end his career. Hold me.</font> :(

Droford 05-23-2015 07:32 PM

Lol Reds manager got tossed while exchanging lineup cards before the game. Earl Weaver once did that for the Orioles.

Emperor Smeat 05-23-2015 09:23 PM

What was the reason?

Ump didn't like the lineup or something the manager hated about the previous game?

Droford 05-23-2015 09:27 PM

He was arguing with the 2nd base ump/crew chief Jim Reynolds probably over something from last night game.

Droford 05-23-2015 10:55 PM

Os and Marlins scoreless through 12 and os just had Matusz get tossed for a foreign substance on his arm

ClockShot 05-25-2015 06:19 AM

This just in:

The Yankees suck.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled holiday programming.

ClockShot 05-25-2015 03:41 PM

Hey look, Yanks are winning.

road doggy dogg 05-25-2015 03:43 PM

'ell yeah

clobber those Royals

ClockShot 05-27-2015 05:08 PM

Braves and Dodgers pull off a 6-player trade with Alberto Callaspo as the centerpiece.

Dodgers get: Alberto Callaspo, Juan Jaime, Ian Thomas, and Eric Stults.

Braves get: Juan Uribe, Chris Withrow.

Now, Callaspo vetoed an earlier trade yesterday which would have been a 1 for 1 swap with him and Juan Uribe. But I guess he got a "stipend" to approve the trade. Oh and Eric Stults promptly got DFA'd.

Evil Vito 05-27-2015 11:49 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Noah Syndergaard hit a 430 foot bomb today. Holy mother of christ. Mets are going to a full on 6-man rotation and a 4-man bench through August so I imagine Syndergaard will wind up as their top PH off the bench ala Carlos Zambrano/Micah Owings.</font>

road doggy dogg 05-28-2015 01:45 AM

What is going on with the twins right now

ClockShot 05-28-2015 06:45 AM

Mike Pelfrey seems to have reinvented himself up there. That's all I know about the Twinkies thus far.

Emperor Smeat 05-28-2015 11:31 PM

:y: Eduardo Rodriguez amazing debut for the Red Sox tonight. Came from last year's trade with the Os for Andrew Miller but he's been great at Pawtucket this season.

Could even get called up sooner than expected because of how great the start was and the current starters being way too unreliable so far.

Evil Vito 05-29-2015 09:11 AM

<font color=goldenrod>One of my favorite obscure slash lines throughout baseball history is Kevin Youkilis' on 3-0 counts: .000/1.000/.000

So he literally never swung on a 3-0 count in his career. He'd either walk or take strike 1. Guess that's why he was the Greek God of Walks.</font>

ClockShot 05-29-2015 08:36 PM

Yankees are gonna activate Tanaka on Wednesday for his start. Here's hoping it's all systems go for a 2nd time.


But if something comes up again this season, just get the Tommy John surgery over with and spend the offseason grabbing some pitching.

Damian Rey 05-30-2015 12:34 AM

I have a tough time believing he'd be able to pitch in top form and stay healthy at the same time. Getting the surgery is probably a given at some point.

<font color=goldenrod>Bartolo Colon strikes again</font>

Evil Vito 05-31-2015 03:17 PM

<font color=goldenrod>Example of how bad the Mets bench is: Colon is 2 for his last 3. Bench players Darrell Ceciliani, Eric Campbell, and Danny Muno are a combined 1 for their last 54.</font>

Damian Rey 05-31-2015 03:51 PM

Yikes. Only a matter of time before he evolves to his final form; BOMBtolo Colon.

ClockShot 05-31-2015 08:47 PM

Thought the Yankees pulled the ripcord at home with their sweep of the Royals. Instead, it didn't work and lost 3 of 4 to the lowly Athletics.

Should have a mandatory piss test at home plate.

Droford 05-31-2015 11:41 PM

The Orioles are 3 games under .500 but only 2 games out of first place

screech 06-01-2015 05:59 AM

I wish Bartolo Colon was on a not rival team. Love him

road doggy dogg 06-01-2015 08:54 AM

Tigers have been frustrating lately.

Supreme Olajuwon 06-01-2015 10:37 AM

like baseball

Supreme Olajuwon 06-01-2015 10:37 AM

not ready to love again

Cooler Tom Schuler 06-01-2015 07:31 PM

I got to go to Target Field last month. It was cool and our seats got upgraded and the Twins won and we all got hats.

ClockShot 06-01-2015 08:02 PM

Phillies release Grady Sizemore.

How the mighty have fallen. :nono:

screech 06-01-2015 10:12 PM

This is horseshit

Damian Rey 06-02-2015 12:40 AM

God the fucking Padres are unbearably frustrating. They have games like last night against the Pirates where the score a heap of runs and pitch effectively, then come out and get fucking waxed 7 to nothing.

Mets have ridiculous good pitching. I understand not putting up much of a fight on offense with DeGrom on the bump. But 7 to fucking nothing? Christ it's not even competitive.
