Finally the light bulb go on or should I wait on him a little bit.

Let's give him 2 more starts I'll say. He was solid in Baltimore. Made one bad pitch to Manny.

His next 2 starts should come against the White Sox and Red Sox. If he is solid in those starts then I'll be a believer.

Britton makes it way too interesting again.

5 SB already for Gardner. In his last 4 seasons he had 16, 20, 21, and 24. If he keeps this up then there is a great chance he finishes with 30 SB or more.

Nice win streak for this Yankees team. Doing this with out Sanchez and Didi and 0 production from Bird and Carter. Yankees Bullpen is Strong and CC looking really good. Its early in the season but this team might be able to shock some people. It will be nice to get Sanchez and Didi back. People forget how good Didi is. He will be a Big up grade for us and obvious get Sanchez back is Big.

Only thing that makes me nervous is our starting pitching. I do think they need to add a #1 or #2 type Starter to really do anything. Tanaka needs to find his groove.

I figured the Yankees would have a decent season. Given the Blue Jays are imploding the Yankees could step up in the division.

BOOM BOOM Mancini looks like the next Orioles homerun monster they find out of nowhere.
Every player on their team seems to be a hulking slow footed power hitting one dimensional players.

Kid doesnt get nearly enough ABs and his glove is weak, but he can hit homerun moonshots better than anyone.
Buck might start having to play him versus the Righties soon.

7 straight wins for the Yanks. Very nice homestand. Awfully they can end it on a good note by winning at least 2 of 3 vs the White Sox before heading on the road for 6

Yanks were 8-14 at the end of April last season. Obviously much better start which was really needed.

When does Pasta Salad start posting again?

Whenever the Yanks lose again most likely. He will come here and tell us how Girardi is a terrible manager and how the batting order must change

Funny thing was he was posting earlier regarding the NY Rangers so it's not like he is away from SportsHoopla. Dude is on SportsHoopla but is avoiding this board because the Yanks are winning.

And if Girardi eats pasta salad on Tuesday it will be the same meal he had on the same day in 1998. BESTEVER

That reminds me of people who kept tweeting out the Jays' record from 92 or 93 two summers ago when they broke their playoff drought. WTF does it matter lol

Also, anyone want some slightly-used Blue Jays that have been hit by cars and de-feathered and a few were partially eaten by homeless people?

"Hey, we have the oldest roster in the Majors. Instead of cashing in on these assets and re-tooling so in 2 years we're good for another 5 lets let our good slugger walk, re-sign the slugger who can't STFU and is on a massive decline, bring back the pitchers who pitched 100x above their norms and build a bullpen out of waiver claims!"

Fucking asshats. I hope they win 4 games all year.

Yeah, the Yankees are playing some great baseball early but please ease off the comparisons to that great 1998 team.

Cannot believe clueless Joe didn't question that DP force out, guy never had possession of ball, but whatever... Anyway...

Glad to see you're safe and sound. Was concerned about your well being since the Yanks started winning and shit
