    Friday nights game should be interesting... both young guys have shown flashes of brilliance, and have struggled. Which will we see?

    That actually made me :lol:

    :up:

    Personally I don't give a crap about Liriano, I want him to fail tonight. However, I really, really, really want Hughes to pitch well. If he doesn't those boo-birds will be ready for a serenade.

    I wonder what the reception for Alex will be? I'd say chances are he'll get a good reception, but with the boo-birds already warmed up by Tex, who knows?

    Tonight's going to be interesting to see the "home field advantage."

    I'm going to the game tonight. Mad pumped up.
    I hope Phil Huges lives up to his nickname Phil Franchise, but I honestly would be shcoked if we lost tonight. We are on a roll and for once it seems like are offense and pitching are on the page.

    Hughes allows a HR then back to back walks with 0 outs. Not a good start.

    The home plate umpire is a total jackass tonight.

    Not that Hughes has been pitching great, but could this ump be any less consistent?

    Hughes has pitched into some issues and then pitched out of them. 2-0 Twins.

    Great play by Teixeira. We haven't see D like his at first base since Tino was here. Now if could only hit like him.

    Damn Morneau.

    Morneau is on my fantasy team. Usually when players play my teams I bench them but at Yankee Stadium I decided to keep him in. Good move right?

    Damon getting booted hurts right here. No offense to Gardner, but Damon up after that Jeter knock would be a much tougher situation for Liriano.

    Alright! Good stuff Brett!

    Now send him to give Tex a shot to make something happen.
