AL East Smack talk 2014

[obxyankeefan]

My homer order look similar except that I would swap the O's and Sox

yeah growing up with the O's shoved down my throat, and being told that they are our local team even though they were four hours away, I have had it in for them since I can remember.

Interesting no replay on the Sizemore HR. It looked to me to hit the top of the padding, but IDK what is a HR there.

Rays handling Toronto

hate to see them lose on opening day, but Lester looked very sharp. Nice to see Sizemore go deep and Bogaerts made some nice contact (he almost took Tillman deep in the 2nd).

So if they win 92 games last year and they're not much of a different team this year, they basically have no shot according to your reasoning.

Of course they have a shot, but I wouldn't have much faith in them to put together a deep playoff run.

You're not objective (even if you want to claim you are), and you're also an idiot.

I am objective, esp with baseball. But I'll remind you again, we're in a smack talk thread so my commentary will be over the top. You can either loosen up or ignore my posts. I hope you choose the latter because quite frankly I haven't enjoyed chatting with you. Other than that, I'll keep my opinion about you to myself.

When you have both Yankee and Red Sox fans agreeing that your reasoning is ridiculous, it says something...

Uh oh! should I go cry in the corner?

Mommy! Some people on the sports forum don't like my posts

As I said earlier:

Who are you!? The Internet Police? lololol

...and then proceeded to say the yankees would have an 8 game lead in september...

super objective man, keep it up!

Lots of sensitive pussies in this thread.

Ask yourself.. what would a smack talk thread be without cocky smack talk? B O R I N G

Either you're sensitive or pretty darn stupid, which are you? My 8 game lead prediction is inflated for entertainment purposes, dumbo.

Oh and btw, Red Sox lost this afternoon. made my day!

I have no problem with smack talk. I do, however, have a problem with stupidity. If you really think road stats from years ago mean anything in 2014, then I don't know what to tell you.

people love to bring up how injured the Yankees were last year, but they still overachieved. 79-83 pythag and they were 30-16 in one-run games. One-run game performance is not a repeatable ability. Just ask Buck Showalter and the 2012 Orioles.

 

[CSD]

I agree, also hate stupidity. I lose my patience fast when attempting to converse with a brick wall.

The Yankees did overachieve last season, agreed.

I never said the Rays road stats from years ago has anything to do with 2014. You're putting words in my mouth because you can't follow a simple forum conversation. I merely said the Rays play much better at the Trop than they do on the road and it shows a trend.

I'm not going to beat a dead horse. Don't agree? Cool. Let's agree to disagree.

 

[navamind]

You want facts and accurate stats to munch on? Open wide because I have a mouthful for you:

2010-2013 Rays @home vs Yankees went 23-13 for 63.9 win %
'............. ' Rays away vs Yankees went 18-19 for 48.6 win %

2000-2009 Rays @home vs Yankees went 38-52 for 42.2 win %
'............. ' Rays away vs Yankees 26-62 for 29.5 win %

But yeah, let's agree on agreeing to disagree.

Jose Reyes is on the DL already

Should we just change his name to one and done.

1 AB and on the DL.

The top of any wall is a home run...

 

[redseat]

Markakis knew it was a homer!

But yeah it's hilarious how Reyes is already hurt

 

[obxyankeefan]

The top of any wall is a home run...

every stadium has different rules, what I was saying is I don't know what the HR rules are at Camden. I have seen the ball hit the top of the padding at Yankee stadium fall back on the field and be ruled in play.

The 2014 finally start their season in a few.hours

 

[bksballer89]

Btw SI has the Yankees only winning 82 games. Do you know the amount of things that must go wrong for that to happen?

Yanks down 4-0

 

[obxyankeefan]

Not only are the Yankees losing 6 -0 to the Astros, but Scott Feldman has a no-hitter going.

I will see y'all later, I have to go jump off a bridge.
