Very good point. Burnett's problem isn't that he can't pitch under pressure, it's that he can never locate his fastball. When he's got a good curveball he can get away with it, because hitters are off balance enough that they don't tatoo every BP fastball he leaves over the plate. But on nights like tonight...well, let's just say that's why he's a career .500 pitcher.
Just got back, that was a pretty blah game cant complain about the offense. Burnett, just being inconsistent as usual
Derek Jeter SS Nick Swisher RF Mark Teixeira 1B Alex Rodriguez 3B Robinson Cano 2B Marcus Thames DH Austin Kearns LF Francisco Cervelli C Brett Gardner CF
Hard to blame Moseley for this one, considering the offense decided to hack all night and he got maybe five minutes between innings.
Sorry guys, but we had to do it again. Don't worry though, you'll be seeing a lot of the Jays in the coming years. Our pitching staff is going to be nasty. Too bad we couldn't play the Orioles every game this season, I think we're 14-0 against them or something. Unfortunately, no matter how good or how bad our team is we shit the bed every year against teams like the Indians and Royals.
ARod looks pitiful at the plate right now. Ugly game again today, not a good time to be playing .500 baseball.
Haven't Jays fans been saying that since, what, 1993? I love when two-game winning streaks that manage to pull your team five games over .500 start manifesting itself as boastful talk.
you guys better pray that a salary cap never comes to fruition......what are the Steinbrenners gonna do when a padlock is put on their wallets?! you MIGHT actually have to develope your talent. Ohhh Noooz.
There are currently 17 players on the Blue Jays roster who were acquired by means other than development in-house. There are currently 20 players on the Yankees roster who were acquired by means other than development in-house. Oh, the horror. You want to field a better team? Tell your owner to run a better business.
