Rangers vs. Yankees

[1502tuley]

Harry has done a great job working through his early (and mid) game problems. This game could easily be 5 to 0 right now.

beltre has taken some terrible swings tonight, and other games recently as well

Would have let Matt at least pitch to Swisher.

Come on Will, man up and get the thumb out of your mouth. I have never said that Wash is without flaws and I happen to agree that the love fest between MY and Wash is really, really stupid. However, the nightly bitch fest about a manager who has done a job that no other manager in baseball has done over the same time period is just dumb...even for the casual fan.

The daily bitching is justified when the lineup choices and decisions are so obviously flawed that even a casual fan can see that they are terrible even by basic metrics like BA (which is apparently all that matters to Wash), OBP and SLG

That last pitch he swung at was way outside

one thing is for sure, the rangers pitchers havent been given the corners this series like the yankees pitchers have been given.

YAY!!!!!

 

[1502tuley]

I absolutely hate Swisher

I posted this before he hit the HR.

I hate him even more now.

 

[jta4437]

Take note Rangers hitters, thats what happens when you a) wait for your pitch, b) don't try to swing as hard as possible, c) foul off good pitches, and d) work the count

 

[elziegreat42]

fuck you ogando!

He threw him 8 straight fastballs. MLB batters will eat your lunch in that situation. very dumb pitching

Wanted Wash to keep Harry in there to pitch to Swisher so he would bat from his non-power side as well as M.Tex too. There was no reason to take him out yet. Just Wash panicking too soon

i have lost trust in ogando, his numbers arent bad, but he isnt the same pitcher he was last postseason. maybe he is rusty still. either way, i dont trust him at all right now

Not the phrase I used. Mine was GDMFI.

good point, sketchy managing game in and game out will eventually cost you

I don't trust anyone in our stable. As of right now, they all suck.
