Season thread. Let's go. $90M on the DL to start the year. vs Red Sox Gm 1 Loss 8-2 Gm 2 Kuroda vs Bucholz Gm 3 Pettitte vs Dempster We are weak and shitty right now but the Red Sox aren't that good either. Could still see us taking next two games.
CC starting off the season shitty as usual. Besides Cano there is no threat in the current lineup IMO. As much as I hate the Sox, they showed a lot of energy in yesterday's opening game. Victorino fits them perfectly, and the rookie Bradley Jr. stole the show. But it is a long season and we definitely need to get healthy fast.
I'm expecting Gardner to have a huge year. Kuroda, Pettitte, and Logan are key to salvaging the season. Rivera obviously most important. I'm intrigued about seeing Romine, Ronnier Mustelier and Melky Mesa down the line (potentially). Maybe even Almonte if injuries pile up and he does well in AAA
Gettin' trounced here in the 7th. Kuroda left in 2nd inning with finger injury but was gettin shelled before. Not a good game.
Shiiii they were getting trounced in the first. This team sucks azz right now. It's sad how empty the stadium is *smh*
Pettitte with a gem, he's such a smart pitcher. Good to avoid the sweep. Upcoming series vs DET starts tmrw afternoon. Gm1 Nova vs Fister Gm2 Phelps vs Scherzer Gm3 Sabathia vs Verlander
Pettitte has some amazing stats when he's pitching to prevent a sweep. They mentioned them on the air. He's like 18-3 now with an ERA of around 3.
04/05/13 03:17:59pm Pacific MLB - Overnight Pitching Change: Game 969-970 (ORN# 3423-3424) NY Yankees - P. Hughes for D. Phelps - Overnight Change. So Hughes vs. Scherzer.
Why would anyone ever be glad to have Hughes back? The best part of this season is its Hughes'last year with the Yankees. Gutless, useless cunt.
:up: perhaps. But he blows and his Yankee career was a gigantic disappointment. Last year, our door prize was Swisher's exit. This year its Hughes'.
Yankees get to Verlander. Jayson Nix 3/4 with a HR, Sabathia with first win of the year. Nicely done. Next @Cleveland for 4 starting tmrw Gm1 Kuroda vs Jiminez Gm2 Pettitte vs Carrasco Gm3 Nova vs Myers Gm4 Hughes vs McAllister
