NFT: Yankees vs Rangers

13ODB : 6/30/2016 1:09 pm
It boggles the mind how Refsnyder is sitting the bench today. He started the rally last night He is a better option offensively then Arod, Hicks and Torreyes, I forgot Torreyes was even on the team that's how long it's been since he played.
Choo with a leadoff bomb

And now Rangers have runners on first and second with 2 outs.
Pineda gets out of it by striking out Mazara.

Terrible

At by Gardner......... Arod singles Ells goes to third but McCann an Tex can not get the run in
How do you make Griffen look good?  
superspynyg : 6/30/2016 1:39 pm : link
Just let Teixera bat against him.

Texas has a good young core  
superspynyg : 6/30/2016 1:40 pm : link
Odor, Profar, Durvish (when he comes back), and Gallo when he finally gets to play everyday at the MLB level.
Thats Darvish not  
superspynyg : 6/30/2016 1:41 pm : link
whirling durvish!!!! lol
don't even look at the talent Texas  
RasputinPrime : 6/30/2016 2:21 pm : link
hasn't even showcased at the MLB level yet. They have the pieces to be in the WS playing the Cubs for the next 5 years.
Tell you what is driving me crazy

If I have to listen to Micheal Kay say this is Aaron Hicks chance to make his case as an everyday player I'm going to lose it. He has been it for a month now and nothing happens. How the fuck does this guy keep getting playing time. Refsnyder is a much better hitter but, he sits and Hicks plays.
Coney with a great Freudian slip today  
B in ALB : 6/30/2016 4:02 pm : link
as Hicks was coming out of the game with an apparent injury following a failed steal attempt.

"Well...that's good news. Hicks outta the game....er, I mean he looks good walking off the field there."

Haha. Cone is the best.
Cone is the best

the only Yankee announcer worth listening to. He's so good I can almost tolerate Kay and not hit the mute button.
Haha

Yanks walk off on a passed ball.
Anybody catch Waldman in the background  
B in ALB : 6/30/2016 4:27 pm : link
all pissed off because Jack Curry stepped out to interview Headley and she was stuck there alone looking stupid?

Well, that's baseball Suzyn.
well ya know Susan, it's like I always say  
Greg from LI : 6/30/2016 4:31 pm : link
Ya just can't predict Jack Curry.

Can't totally disagree, but I think he needs two months to settle in and not worry about being pulled. He's a very good OF with a cannon arm. If you want to see what the young guys can do, let them play. They know what Ref can do and he's Teix backup for now. I don't expect much based on what I've seen. But we did not see much from Didi for half a year.
Walk off passed ball!  
Stan in LA : 6/30/2016 4:31 pm : link
Classic!!
Headley nearly got caught.  
section125 : 6/30/2016 4:41 pm : link
He was breaking back to the bag with only a small lead.

Still doesn't make up from that shitshow Monday. That game should have been called after 8. BS waiting 3:35 to resume the game.
In all honesty  
B in ALB : 6/30/2016 4:44 pm : link
The Yanks could have won 3 of 4 if the fuck stain umps didn't screw the pooch Monday night/Tuesday morning.
Hopefully the game last night  
illmatic : 6/30/2016 4:57 pm : link
was some kind of turning point for this team. Doubtful but it would be nice if they came together and started playing a lot better.
Good win  
13ODB : 6/30/2016 5:13 pm : link
Sweep San Diego now. Baltimore just destroyed them

The ball got away from the catcher earlier in the inning and Headley was dancing back and forth when he should have been on third. Same thing on the passed ball. The ball is on it's way to the screen and Headley is looking in and going back to third! During the interview after the game he mentioned that he was working on his secondary lead. Bahaha. I almost thought it was Posada out there.
I don't get some of these moves either  
Matt M. : 6/30/2016 8:57 pm : link
A-rod had a 3 game hitting streak and hit in 7 of 8, before he sat 2 straight days for Hicks, who is hitting 20 points less. Teixeira has played almost everyday since coming back and he's hitting more than 30 points less and dropping. Ref barely sees the field now, yet he has been one of their best 2 or 3 hitters of late.

I know people like to pile on A-Rod, but he has been starting to hit. I'd much rather have him in the lineup everyday than Teixeira, who is an albatross for the better part of 3 or 4 years now.
In all honesty the Yanks had no business winning the other night  
xman : 7/1/2016 1:33 am : link
nor losing the night before.

I think they should unload their relievers to the highest bidders. Texas needs a reliever as does the Indians. So do the Cubbies. Not sure about the Nats. Either way lets get some jewels for the future.

Relievers seem to be the easiest to develop. I mean Mo leaves and Robertson appears. He leaves and Bettances then Miller and now Chapman arrive. I bet Evolodi would be a terrific closer

Eovaldi doesn't have the control to close. The Yanks didn't develop Miller or Chapman. So top notch relievers are still hard to find or all the teams you mentioned would have them.
Top notch relievers don't exist on losing teams  
xman : 7/1/2016 1:46 pm : link
because there wont be a chance for them to save a game in most situations. So how many undiscovered relievers might there be if every team was winning? Probably a lot more them one realizes. Mo as the GOAT would have been an unknown if he had been stuck on a bottom feeder club.
