C'mon Bronx Bombers, let's win a series against a first place team and head into the All-Star break feeling better about themselves than they do now!
Let's Go Yankees!

New Window )
Which means zilch now to most, but still an amazing thing for us to consider as Yankee fans. A second half fade is certainly possible, but he could still potentially approach 50 or 60
Unreal
Those last to batters that Clippard got out should see an eye doctor.
WTF are you talking about? What moves would you have made in the BP instead of what Girardi has done? Let's see, don't go to Clippard, or Betances, or Holder, or Webb, or German, or... Oh, and Chapman and Warren have been injured for parts of this past month.
So who would you have used?
This just get rid of him.

Better yet where is Adam Warren. Girardi has been managing this bullpen awfully for weeks he needs to fucking go l!!!! Five years without a playoff victory. Five years without breaking 87 wins. Five years of mediocrity.

I'm talking about you! C'mon, who would you have used in all these spots that Girardi supposedly fucked up? You're smart enough to know that he doesn't know how to manage. So tell me what you'd do, you whiney fuck.
This is the shit that most teams have to deal with. It's just happening to us now.
Clippard got squeezed on two pitches, bu geezus walk 3 people in am inning. DFA

He's right buddy. Has nothing to do with being a whiney fuck. Learn the game before you post nonsense.

Why are you asking me who should he have brought in when I am saying where is Warren and Green obviously those are the two I wanted in their over this bum clippard and please do not give me this every team goes through this crap.. I do not see the Red Sox, Astros, Dodgers and Nationals losing 17 out of 23 games

Actually, it does. This BP was running on fumes for quite some time, and every kid we tried ultimately failed. So our only hope was to turn to the guys we had at those times.
And if you can't see that, you're missing something.
BTW, I apologize for calling nygnyy a whiney fuck. I have trouble with folks not being able to handle a bit of disappointment. I'd still love to see how nygnyy would have handled things better over the course of this last month, where NO ONE in the BP performed up to past history, none of the kids came through consistently, and the BP was gassed.
You can tell me too, SoZ, since you know so much more about the game than I do.
All of us HAD to know that our pitching was our Achilles heel this year. Well, with CC's injury and Pineda reverting to form it finally fell off the cliff.
That's the team we have. It's got it's share of weaknesses. Not like the Astors, Dodgers, Sox or whomever.

back to the 5-slot he'll go
Wtf is going on?
And does anyone else notice how Clip Joint shows his grip in the glove to CF? You can clearly see him grip either the FB or the change. I mean, I can see it from the 60" TV. There's no doubt other teams see it as well.
And Head Case batting 2nd? Meanwhile, didn't Binders bat ARod 8th at one point?
Come on.

That was Torre. In a playoff game. So bad.
But I'm pretty fed up with Girardi at this point. Said this the other day, he's done a good job with some really weak rosters the last few seasons. But I wonder if he starts to get stale. He's had a brutal last month
The devotion to guys like Headley and Clippard is hard to understand. To stretch Clippard to 36 pitches there is just having such a poor feel for the situation.
He's slow to trust certain players while other veterans get a really long leash. Makes me wonder if he's the right guy to lead what will be a very young team coming up.
Other team makes 5 errors and you get still get blown out. Come on

Castro and Halliday were healthy when the Yankees went 1-6 on the west coast then went 2-4 the next home stand so 3-10 in those games so take the injury excuse somewhere else,

But when you have Bird, Castro, Holliday and Hicks out of the lineup at the same time, with Ellsbury out for a part of that time, with Headley our only option at 3rd, and with the SP AND BP issues we've had this year, you're gonna lose a bunch of games.

And clearly that was Girardi's fault. Not the talent level of the team. Someone always has to be to blame, and it must be Girardi.
I'm not a Girardi apologist or critic, but I think that most of us KNEW that this team's start was a wonderful and unexpected thing. It was unexpected in part because no one knew that Judge, Castro, Hicks, Pineda and CC would perform so well early on. But the shit hit the fan, and the pitching went to shit, even BP pieces who had been reliable in the past. And the Yanks and Girardi threw anything they could at that problem, and nothing worked. Starters like Cessa, Pineda, even Tanaka, pitched poorly, and they AND our good kid starters often didn't go deep enough into games to protect a tired BP, and we regressed to the mean.
Anyone who thinks that this pitching staff is playoff level is deluding themselves. That's why I believe that Girardi is the least of this team's troubles, and pitching talent and injuries are it's prime problems.
It's astonishing to me that we're completely afraid to try something new because he's a "good fielder" (despite many dogshit throws and a bunch of Es this season) and a "great clubhouse guy" (so sit him on the fucking bench, he'll still be in the clubhouse!).
I don't care if Andujar has hands of stone and hits .120, you'll at least find out sooner or later what you have. One out of every 20 times Headley comes up in a big spot does he come through. He has to go. He needs to get Carter'd. And the team shouldn't care if that makes him sad. I know there are limited options and everyone is injured, I get it, but you can't keep trotting him out there when for stretches of time, he hits .000. Can't happen.
