33 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:03 pm

uh-oh.

34 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:12 pm

stop with the wave.

ooh, we got REALLY lucky on that terrible call. not even close to a strike!

35 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:14 pm

Seriously? That can be reviewed?

36 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:14 pm

whew.

oh god. here's comes the esoteric blocking of the plate. ridiculous. wasn't close. he *better* be out!!!

37 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:15 pm

Oh jeez, he could have skid inside and was out by a mile anyway.

38 thelarmis   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:15 pm

good.

39 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:32 pm

Ah, shit.

40 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:35 pm

DP. phew....

41 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:35 pm

Double play!

42 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:42 pm

C'mon. offense. Don't fuck this up.

43 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:43 pm

Brett's reluctance to run early in the count continues to be a major drag on his effectiveness ...

44 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:44 pm

That was a horrible ab by Jeter. Bollocks!

45 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:48 pm

Maybe steal here?

Ask an dye shall receive.

46 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:48 pm

Ye, stupid autocorrect.

47 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:49 pm

Bad me

48 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:50 pm

Teix does not inspire confidence.

49 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:51 pm

[45] Jermaine?

50 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:54 pm

[49] nah! still not used to the iPad being oh so damn helpful.

51 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:55 pm

Double blergh

52 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:56 pm

Just awful.

53 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:58 pm

Watching this "offense" is against the Geneva Convention ...

54 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 8:59 pm

[50] Yeah, I don't comment as much when on I'm my iPad. It's too much of a pain in the ass. : ) The laptop is much more convenient for typing.

55 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:00 pm

[48] Remember when Tex used to get a clutch hit now and then? He'll get his HRs, but between the shifts and his injuries the more productive days seem to be behind him.
[50] the same for me.

56 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:04 pm

Betances seems to be a force of nature. Stretch him out to attempt another go as a starter? Give him the ninth and trade DRob?

57 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:07 pm

[56] Either one. We need both a second base man and a shortstop next year. And I don't want a serviceable league average guy.

58 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:08 pm

Fucking shift.

59 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:08 pm

[56] The Alabama Hamma is a free agent after the season.

60 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:11 pm

[56] I'm all for stretching him out and making him a starter. The concern with Betances is can he be just as good every fifth day as a few days a week. I don't think the Yankees will fix what isn't broken but they've screwed up most of their other young pitchers. So who knows. This offense, in case anyone hasn't noticed, is painful.

61 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:14 pm

Happy 500th, David.

62 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:18 pm

]60] the offense makes for some ugly fan drinking.
[59] Alabama Gettaway?

63 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:20 pm

Ichiro must be a hellava tennis player.

64 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:20 pm

Can we has walk off?

65 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:21 pm

Please steal than bunt.

66 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:21 pm

Then bunt

67 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:23 pm

Still need a hit. Ichiro steal third?

68 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:24 pm

Fuck.

69 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:25 pm

We'll...now only a hit will do. And it's Tex again...please make me eat my previous words.

70 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:26 pm

C'mon, Teix. One time! For fuck's sake!

71 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:28 pm

Jeez Mark we don't need a three run homer.

72 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:29 pm

Moving right along.

73 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:31 pm

Any dink will do.

74 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:32 pm

Take the HBP idiot.

75 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:32 pm

Hell yeah!

76 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:32 pm

Woo hoo!

77 cult of basebaal   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:33 pm

PraDO!!!

78 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:33 pm

Gatorade bath coming up

79 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:34 pm

Nice! Hail to Prado! Down 0-2 and comes through.

80 Ara Just Fair   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:34 pm

Gardner becoming the class clown. lol.....

81 rbj   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:34 pm

Goodnight all.

82 kenboyer made me cry   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:37 pm

Nice to see a positive outcome after tension. Makes fandom feel alive. Goodnight.

83 Boatzilla   ~  Aug 22, 2014 9:50 pm

Man, that was rich and satisfying.

I was cursing having your best hitter bunt over one of the leagues highest percentage stealers.

But hell, I like this Prado guy. I like him a lot. I'm still pissed about Cano (and will always be), but at least Cashman has done a fantastic job of damage control.

NHK is playing the Mariners-Sox game and guess who got a clutch RBI hit?

84 thelarmis   ~  Aug 23, 2014 3:38 am

I've always liked Prado. I really enjoyed watching him as a Brave.
