somehow that looks like a lot more than a 1/9th improvement

the bottom of the lineup is still wretched...but look!! actual major leaguers 1-3!!! 1-4 if Vernon continues to show a pulse!!

according to lohud gene michael was monitoring him in scranton and said he looked good - that is good enough for me.
i believe some people have a good eye for talent and stick is one of those people and ties in directly with our discussion on joba and hughes yesterday.

oh and speaking of joba - i realize most players dick around during bp, but yesterday while joba was in right field "shagging balls" he spent at least 30 minutes trying to hit the top of the foul post with whatever balls came to rf. seemed a little symbolic to me.

So who's this Derek Jeter kid? They're bringing a guy up from AAA just to DH?

[3] I genuinely felt sad watching Joba pitch the 9th last night.

[5] yea when i was watching his foul pole exhibition i felt sad and for the first time a bit disgusted which might be too harsh. but had so much promise. then so much happened - some on him, some on the yankees, some on life, but damn.

Nothing like an afternoon game starting off with a bunch of suck.

Bad Andy.

Andy, why?

Nice Eminem jam for Jeter's ab. "PEOPLE! It's so GOOD TO BE BACK!"

YAY!

Hey, this Derek fellow is batting 1.000 for the season!

I love that man

Andy's defense of late has been terrible.

Nunchuck begins the one out rally.

Hey, Austin. Nice work with the 2 out rbi.

Holy smokes. 2 straight 2 out hits. Keep it going, Captain.

He's a bum. Bench him.

Yay, Captain!!! : )

was the stadium crazy loud for him? though i'm guessing it was barely half full... standing o?!

damn, andy.

Nune5

C'mon Cap'n!!!

2-0. Hit and run!

Or just run.

Derek Productive Outs!

Jeet still looks a step or two slower on the basepath at this point

3-1. Hit and run!

sparky, Lyle!

Lyle, Lyle, he's our man, if he can't do it, nobody can!

Well howz about that inning? Hot damn!

yeah!

They can score lots of run! They really can score lots of runs!

I saw the Score Truck last night and it wasn't a dream - it's here again!

Score Truck!

they're hitting Andy hard. Time to get crafty, lefty.

Say hey, Ichiro!

Willie Maysian!

Definitely pen time.

And time to take the dogs to their boarder.

an rbi for the captain!

8-4

Bring in Mo and pray for rain.

I hope everyone is also voting for the Alabama Hamma to make the ASG again.

I leave for 45 minutes to argue about George Zimmerman with my boss and it's 8-4?!?

[40] Baseball >>> court proceedings. Take it from a lawyer (albeit one who never goes into court :)

Do I hear the Score Truck coming around the corner?
