Doubt they get the game in, although they may start  
njm : 8/18/2017 5:35 pm : link
I forgot. Do they pick up the game from where it stopped or play a fresh 9? Given the weather, I'd almost advocate starting a relief pitcher cause it looks like heavy rain beginning around 8 or 9.

That's lame. Didn't realize the weather was that bad up north. Not sure exactly the weather rules either.

I would think that given the importance of these games that they would mess around with them.

Would push Sunday's game to prime time to allow for a dbl header on Saturday OR Sunday?

Keep it as a historic site, preserve it and do tours and such, but it really isn't suited for baseball in 2017.

Far be it from me to give the Sox any props, but I'm also a huge fan of the fact that you can go in there as a rival fan and not need to worry about anything unless you're being a complete jerkoff. That's the way it should be, every sport everywhere.

That isn't a given, when you have complete trash fanbases like Philly.
Baseball has really changed  
bluesince56 : 8/18/2017 8:54 pm : link
I grew up in Brooklyn first rooting for the Dodgers then the Yankees. Just saw Hicks strike out. Your down two runs with Judge up next. They are shifted over to the right side leaving all the left side of the infield vacant. Why not push the ball over there? Even if Hicks homers your still down a run. Boy the game has really changed!

Back in the day, I was at a Yankees v Sox game and I was in the bleachers. No one was fucking with me until Sheffield was grabbed by a fan in right field. I went berserk with my language. I was pissed because it was completely ridiculous what was going on. The guy behind me started mouthing off and grabbed my Yankee skully that my Dad bought me and tore it off my head. I stood up, turned around ready to murder and the guy immediately shrunk like a bitch. I grabbed him by the throat and was choking him, he gave my hat back lickety fuckin split. I told everyone around me that if anyone wants to go, I'm fuckin ready. (this was back in my younger days when I was 260 and ripped to shreds) The section turned silent and me and my pals exited shortly afterwards.

Other than that, no issues. I even walked into the lower section hollering "Let's Go Yankees!" during a Sox/Rangers game and no one said shit. But back in the day, the bleachers by the bullpen could get questionable. All in good fun though. Unless you grab a mutherfuckers head piece.

but are we really buying the "Maddon burned him out in a dozen innings in 2016" line?

He isn't in a good place mentally and that can be impossible to work past.


That's absolutely a legit possibility. It's a different pitcher from what we saw last season. Did he just forget how to pitch? I doubt it. Maddon overused him. I don't blame him, but it definitely is possible we're seeing the effects.
they have to release Chapman, this guy went Ed Whitson

real quick. If Billy Martin was Manager he would have skull fucked chapman for not backing up catcher

Had the perfect opportunity to put him on the DL and have him get his shit together in Scranton.
I'm beginning to think Girardi's a goner, too.

Ten years here. Contract's up. Might be time.

cant wait for Joe press conference  
32_Razor : 8/18/2017 11:20 pm : link
going to be a classic. Chappie is my closer....chappie fuc8 him good tonight
Girardi's good for a few postgame explosions per season.  
bceagle05 : 8/18/2017 11:22 pm : link
Tonight may be one of them.
Disgusting loss  
Mr. Bungle : 8/18/2017 11:22 pm : link

worst loss of the season  
RasputinPrime : 8/18/2017 11:23 pm : link
time for Defenders.
Chappy, Romine, and Joe  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/18/2017 11:23 pm : link
can all go fist eachother.
chapman should be suspended for not backing up catcher  
32_Razor : 8/18/2017 11:25 pm : link
and letting those runners double steal....There is no way he can be allowed to pitch..no f*ing way
Clean inning by Kimbrel  
Stratman : 8/18/2017 11:26 pm : link
adds insult to injury. Big questions to answer regarding Judge and Chapman.
have to make robertson the closer with green and betances for eight  
32_Razor : 8/18/2017 11:27 pm : link
they should call up adams from AAA and get rid of chapman..and or DL him for the year...but he deserves a suspension. Billy Martin would have destroyed him for what he did tonight.
Kahle looked scared shitless out there  
32_Razor : 8/18/2017 11:29 pm : link
not ready for pressure or prime time rivalry games.
Have to say I made a big mistake handicapping the division  
Stu11 : 8/18/2017 11:30 pm : link
underestimated the Sox heart. This team knows how to battle in the late innings and pull these games out at home. Since the all star break its been all about hitting with men base. The Sox do it and we don't. End of story.
And the coaches have to take at least  
Dave in Hoboken : 8/18/2017 11:30 pm : link
alittle bit of a hit re: Judge. It's not the fact that Judge is massively struggling but it's how LONG he's been struggling for that the coaches take some responsibility. Clearly, whatever they are suggesting he do has not worked and it hasn't worked in quite sometime.
I think Chapman will get right  
Kyle in NY : 8/18/2017 11:35 pm : link
It just might not happen this season. Might need a 10 DL stint/break to clear his head for a bit.

They're not releasing him less than a season into a 5 year deal. That's just silly.
Joe is really making bad choices.  
xman : 8/18/2017 11:35 pm : link
Setting up the rotation for this series is terrible. Christ he needed to find a scrub to pitch that last game vs the Mets and have our ace on the mound tonight.

Batting order tonight was horrible though he did hit the lottery with Frazier and Headley on this night. Romine again please

Leaving rookie Judge in the 3 hole is not helping the kid. Don;t put more pressure on the rookie. Help him out

The bullpen calls are backwards. Not mixing it up right and bringing Chappy in to start the 8 th was brain dead. When lefty Devers get a hit I don't need to see more.

So Joe ain't figuring it out.
Did Joe want Warren to close  
JoeyBigBlue : 8/18/2017 11:44 pm : link
with Robertson and Betances out, because I still don't understand putting in Kanhle over Warren in that 7th inning.
That's bullshit Joe, you are not getting Chapman right  
32_Razor : 8/18/2017 11:44 pm : link
you are frustrated you can't dump him because he making bank..and not producing..tell the truth Joe
Yeah, Joe's had a tough season.  
bceagle05 : 8/18/2017 11:47 pm : link
More excuses for Chappy from him in the post game, too.
He said Robertson was available.  
bceagle05 : 8/18/2017 11:48 pm : link
Just didn't get to him.
Having had to bring in Betances after the Grandy slam last night  
The_Boss : 8/18/2017 11:49 pm : link
Cost them this game. Kanhle fucking blows in high stress spots and he blew it. What could have been a glorious win is likely a 6 game defect tomorrow when Sale beats them. Then at best, they leave Fenway 5 out come Sunday or at worst, 7 out. At that point, securing WC #1, not the division, becomes the priority. Boston is just better.
Mentally, chapman has checked out since cubs won WS

That's the default opinion of fans, but he looked absolutely despondent when Rosario hit his home run. The guy cares. He's clearly just a mental mess.

Why wasn't he available?/// he last pitched Wednesday and Monday .its time for girardi
On the lighter side...

Bird homered twice for SWB yesterday. Maybe he can do for the Yankees lineup what Devers has done for the Red Sox.
Kinda wish Boston had traded Devers at the deadline.  
Jim in Hoboken : 8/19/2017 7:43 am : link
He looks legit.

I expect Bird to inject life into this lineup. Bird/Sanchez/Didi/Judge, let's go.
Worst loss of the season... I feel like I've said that 5-6 times this  
shockeyisthebest8056 : 8/19/2017 7:59 am : link
year. IMO, it's totally on Joe. With this bullpen, you can't let any one guy lose a game for you and he let Kahnle lose this game. Warren or Robertson would've been better choices in that spot, especially once Kahnle got in severe trouble.

While Kahnle's ERA has been good with the Yankees, he's allowed a lot of hits since his 5 perfect appearances after the trade. Including yesterday, opponents are hitting .333 against him in his last 10 appearances.

I don't get the complaints about Judge. Yes, he's struggled, but as long as he gets on base, he's doing his job. He reached twice in 5 PAs yesterday... he did his job. I thought his AB against Kelly was one of the best he's had in forever. He just didn't come through.

If we're going to complain about RISP, Sanchez and Torreyes squandered a fuckload of opportunities yesterday, but people forgot because they got the big hits in the 7th inning.
