7LineFan Posted April 7, 2013 Share #103 Posted April 7, 2013 Yankees lose again dropping to a 1-4 record... Still early in the season but not a great start... The pitching isn't there (aside from Pettite) and none of the players who were with the team last year are doing anything... the only production has been from the new blood. The bright side is, the Yankees always start slowly. The problem is, this year they don't have as good a team as in years past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bright side is, the Yankees always start slowly. The problem is, this year they don't have as good a team as in years past. I agree... The pitching isn't there... Pettitte had a strong outing when he pitched... CC not so much... It was great to see Rivera get his first save of his last season a few days ago... Girardi needs to get tossed for a spark to the team LOL... Yep, that sure gets them going usually... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYCtrainfan01 Posted April 8, 2013 Share #106 Posted April 8, 2013 Can't edit my post above... Yankees win 7-0! Their first shutout win of the 2013 season! CC pitched a great game today... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alejr88 Posted April 9, 2013 Author Share #107 Posted April 9, 2013 Travis Hafner & Robinson Cano lead the Yankees to another win over Nick Swisher and the Indians by the score of 11-6. Matt Harvey is awesome. If I have to go to Flushing, as a baseball fan is to watch that guy pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted April 9, 2013 Share #108 Posted April 9, 2013 Well it seems like the new guys: Haffner, Youk, Wells, Overbay have done their parts pretty well. I was skeptical about some of them, but like last year, Cashman found some decent parts from the 'scrap'. That said, I'm keeping a low optimism as if last year's team couldn't win an ALCS game, I can't imagine this team getting far unless the actually do the impossible: manufacture some runs vs relying on the long ball to win games. I am glad that Kuroda bounced back from that injury as he's their ace and it would be devistating to see him go down for a long period of time. Hughes and Nova: gonna need to do better... Hughes isn't making a good impression if he wants to stay next year. Dunno if stated already, but I wonder when they might bring up Wang? I was surprised they got him to sign a minor league deal. I am hoping he can reclaim some of the form that made him great in the 2006-7 seasons. Who knows how good he would've been if not for that freak injury in Houston those years back?

Grand Concourse Posted April 10, 2013 Share #110 Posted April 10, 2013 Well, assuming wang pitches as well as he did in the WBC, I think Hughes and nova should be looking over their shoulders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed! ----------------- The Yankees win again! With the final score being 14-1! In other news in the MLB, When I saw this video, I was like "Are you serious?" This has got to be the worse blown call I've ever seen... This was the Rangers VS Rays: http://mlb.mlb.com/video/play.jsp?content_id=26132663&topic_id=11493214 What do you guys think?

I didn't think they'd go home run crazy though. I guess we can all rest a little easy on that end. Indeed, a total wtf, that was clearly a ball, low and outside corner. Guy didn't even swing.

Grand Concourse Posted April 13, 2013 Share #120 Posted April 13, 2013 Speaking of triple plays, was that the one by arod? Or was it earlier? And speaking arod, now it's reported he tried to obtain the documents of him buying the illegal substances... Sigh if true, please let this be the final nail in the coffin to void the remainder of the contract... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alejr88 Posted April 13, 2013 Author Share #124 Posted April 13, 2013 The Mets whopped the Twins, 16 to 5.John Buck has to cool off at some point, right? we had our first brawl of the year 2 days ago. i know fighting in sports are wrong but they are awesome.Yeah, Zack Greinke and Carlos Quentin went at it. But nothing compares to the fight the Mexicans and Canadians had at the WBC. Former Yankee and current Red Sox Alfredo Aceves got beat the hell up that day. In addition, felt terrible that Greinke broke his collarbone, MLBN showed some footage of the two facing each other back from 2009. Maybe Quentin was tired of Greinke hitting him or throwing at him over the years. Me thinks R.A. Dickey is not confident throwing the knuckleball to Arencibia nor Blanco. Again, why the heck did the Jays option Josh Thole?? Wasn't it the reason he was sent over in the trade as well? Mike Nickeas?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not awesome if Greinke suffers a broken collarbone. John Buck has to cool off at some point, right? Eventually. But let's just ride it out.
