Gammons isn't even that dumb

They can take the division.

I totally dis-agree, they are currently constructed to be a last place team.

Who in that rotation do you really think isn't exactly who he had been so far? It's not like they have a pitcher or 3 that's pitching well below who he has been for 2 or 3 years. They brought in 5 guys that combined for a 5+ ERA in2014, and surprise surprise, that's exactly who they have been this season. The O's will still be a team to be dealt with. The Rays when healthy will have easily the best staff in the division. The Sox and Jays battling for last place is a perfectly reasonable expectation

Eh, losing a 3 game series in May isn't the end of the world. But they are supposed to score in bunches to offset the horrible pitching. It's a lousy recipe, so far.

But the Yankees have some of the most injury-prone players in the game all healthy right now. It won't stay that way. Arod, Teixeira, Pineda, Sabathia, Ellsbury, Gardner etc... All live on the DL.



Lol.
Brett Gardner 148 games in 2014
Jacoby Ellsbury 150 games

I thought that injury would mark the return of Salty. Not sure when he clears waivers.


Not sure if it's a smoke screen, they say they are absolutely not signing Salty

You must be joking.

We have a #5 who's a legit #2 on most MLB teams. That rotation is fucking stacked and we have two coming off Tommy John soon.

I thought you were talking Red Sox

Yeah, none of what I just said applies to the Pods

I heard "Gammons", I thought he only talks about the Sox

Red Sox have a worse record than the Cubs, Padres, Mets, Twins, Astros and Royals

They have given up more runs than every team has scored, except the Blow Jays

He doesn't just talk about the Sox. Sometimes he talks about hating the Yankees

Who would have thought losing 100 games a year for half a decade would lead to a good young team

Plus Peter likes to write about how Yaz is going to bust out of that slump soon and that Piersall kid can sure chase em down but he's a bit odd
