I want to punch Laz Diaz in the face, tbh. Some of those calls were way to biased on each side. Not that it probably would have mattered since the Yankees were playing awful but still. Him and Canada for bringing all those damn bugs

it's fucking bullshit. once again nobody shows up for the playoffs. can't take this shit any more. why even be there if you're not going to play? It's sad when you know the games over when Rivera is done. Seriously, did any of you think they would win with dickhead on the mound.
Pitching was awesome tonight, but like the last few years, nobody can hit. We need players who can win in the playoffs, not get us to the playoffs. |

Yup, pitching was there, hitting wasn't. Joba gave up that run but he didn't even give up a hit. Uncharacteristic wild pitches and walks killed him.
But it is pretty damn pathetic when you remember every single hit your team has in the game, and every single inning/situation it is in. You have to give some credit to Carmona because he was flat-out nasty but still. You gotta score more than 1 run. |

Totally.
Sizemore on third with no outs, you have to score him. No two ways about it and they should have had a fan in centre like that Red Sox kid just now |

I wanna see A-Rod strike out or just not get on base in his first AB next game. See if the fans totally turn on him.

The Yankees faced two of the best pitchers in baseball but now they face Westbrook and Byrd at Yankee Stadium. If they do what they should against those two guys then I could easily see it going back to Cleveland for one game. And when it gets to that point anything can happen. Its not like Sabathia shut us down or anything last time. |

LOL WHAT??? Fuck what everyone else is doing. A-rod is the highest paid player in the league. He's gunna be the AL MVP. He's been absolutely obliterated by the media for his post season performance and what does he do? He comes in and has a whopping .000 average so far. Thats a fucking joke. Everyone got on Manning when he struggled. Everyone laughed at Dirk Nowitski last year when he won the MVP after his team got bounced by the warriors and was shit. OFCOURSE blame A-Rod. I dont see why not. He deserves it. A guy of that caliber should not be performing like he is right now. Its basically inexcusable in my mind. I mean, if Kaz Matsui can muscle up a playoff grandslam in a tie game. I think the least A-Rod can do is get on first base. Hows it feel to know that if A-Rod is hitless going into his last atbat ( or possibly first for that matter ) and he doesnt get a big hit, he'll be booed so loudly, he definetly wont be back to New York next year? That has to suck. |

Damn. What a bad game last night for the yanks. I don't know why Pettitte got yanked that early in. He was holding it down for us pretty good last night.
Cleveland better run some crop dusters over that lake. That was a bunch of crap last night. But the next two are back in the stadium. Fly free. We got a shot going to 5. |

I love Joe Torre and I have been one of the few who has stood behind him but he has been horrible this series.
We should be running on Victor Martinez. I don't fucking get it. He's like the worst catcher in major league baseball. We aren't hitting, why the fuck aren't we taking any chances? I don't know why the hell he'd hit Matsui behind A-Rod. Shit, at this point, I think Matsui has shown he shouldn't even be playing right now. Give Giambi a start at DH or even Shelley Duncan on Sunday. I'd hit Posada or even Cano behind A-Rod before Matsui at this point. Joba will be fine. He was clearly bothered by the bugs. Rivera was Rivera. Even Vizcaino wasn't bad. Pitching hasn't really been our problem, except for Wang. This is the lineup I'd put out there tomorrow: Damon Jeter Abreu A-Rod Posada Cano Giambi Cabrera Mientkiewicz All we need is Clemens to give us 5 solid innings. Vizcaino can handle the 6th and then Joba and Rivera can slam the door shut on the 7th, 8th and 9th. Game 4 is worrying. Hughes looked good in relief the other night but I doubt Torre will trust him in a huge game like that. I might be inclined to agree with him. I think we'll see Mussina out there, who I hope will be amped up for one of the biggest games of his career. He's been awful these past 2 seasons in the postseason though and his regular season numbers don't help. I'd almost consider going with Wang on short rest. He's much better at home. I don't know if it's a great idea though, I can't remember how Wang pitches on short rest (or if he's even done it before). Also, he may be better at home, but he was terrible in game 1. TERRIBLE. We really just need to start hitting. Everyone collectively. Rafael Perez has retired every batter he has faced thus far. Ridiculous. Last edited by FakeLaser; 10-06-2007 at 01:51 PM. |

I dunno. From what I've heard Martinez has been a lot better at throwing runners out this season. Last year he threw out 13% of baserunners and this year he's at 30% apparently. He seems to have improved a lot there. And the fact we didn't get on too much really hurts.
I think the plan should be Wang in game 4 if we get there. I don't think they'd put the season on Hughes or Mussina. He's on short rest but sinkerballers tend to be better on short rest. Although usually when Wang's sinkerball is better he can't control it and walks a ton of guys. If we get to 5 Pettitte should be the one anyway. They really need to pull out all the stops. Clemens has to pitch good tomorrow and if we get to game 4 Wang should start but be on a short leash with Mussina and Hughes ready to go at any time. All long as they stay with Westbrook and Byrd in games 3 and 4 we have a chance to get to game 5. And once we get there anything can happen. |

Even if he's improved he's still not good. Even if he is decent we should be taking more chances. We haven't tried to manufacture any runs. Once again, we're waiting on the long ball, which is usually fine for us but we aren't hitting. We don't have time to break out of it. If we're going to go down we should go down fighting, not waiting around for someone to finally get that big hit.

Yeah I agree with you. Just saying Martinez isn't as bad as before. It would have been huge if we could have just manufactured one run yesterday but we couldn't. Its pretty awful considering we have scored 4 runs these two games and three have come on homeruns. That definitely has to tell you something.
