Yankees Tigers Game 3 Thread

Look at their lineup. Is Neifi Perez really playing everyday for them now?

Their best pitcher just got smacked around the park today to the tune of 11 baserunners in 5 1/3 IP. I haven't been following them all year but I don't understand how they won so many games.

 

Weak league dude.

 

He got smacked around by probably the best team in baseball, it's not like the Royals beat him up and how is 4 runs getting "smacked around" when you say 3 runs in 7 IP is a good job? 3 runs are good but 4 is smacked around?

 

The Mets don't play until 9 PM.

 

I didn't say the best team in that AAA caliber NL.

ARod finally seems to be breaking out, hopefully it's not a 1 game thing.

 

THe Mets are the best team in Baseball, by far. NL AL it doesn't matter.

 

Yep, w/ a top 2 rotation of injured, fading stars you are by far the best team in baseball. You have a great lineup but that lineup will not beat the AL representative in the WS IF you make it that far. MAYBE the Mets are the 3rd best team in baseball possibly 4th behind the yanks, ChiSox and maybe the Twins.

 

Best lineup, best bullpen, best defense.

 

Gotta go to Mo.

 

Who gave up the dinger?

 

they left randy in to start the 9th, he walked the first guy then gave up the hr

 

Yankees win!

 

For those questioning why Joe did not use Mo last night, It was reported Mo had to have an MRI....

 

What does that mean? It showed him sitting in the bullpen several times last night.

 

The results of the MRI did not come back until TODAY.. He had swelling in his forearm.

 

:rofl: :rofl: The lineup is damn good but it's not the Yankee lineup, best bullpen?:rofl: :rofl: You lost your best setup guy, you are relying on Roberto Hernandez? We all know Billy Wagner can implode at any moment too. We ahve the best closer in the history of baseball, our setup men aren't great but they are ok and overall we have a better pen. Defensively I'd give you an edge but w/ our new OF we are alot better defensively than a year ago.

they had been treating that forearm for a while now, I guess it wasn't getting better but I don't think they used him Weds Night b/c he pitched in game 1.

 

Your just wrong junc.

Our pen is by far the best, even after losing Sanchez.

 

How many saves has wagner blown this year? What's his postseason ERA?(7.71 if you don't want to look it up) yeah your pen is definitely the best:rofl:

 

I don't want to start another pointless Yankee/Met debate but I feel I have to correct some more junc misinformation. If the Mets are "relying on Roberto Hernandez"(10 1/3 IP 2.61 ERA in August) what would you call what the Yankees are doing with Proctor(22 IP 3.27 ERA) and Villone(22 1/3 IP 6.04 ERA)?

 

Outside of the other night when proctor was thrown into a role he's not made for he has been excellent the 2nd half of the season. Overall villone has been good this year, he's struggled some lately but there's plenty of time to get back to normal. of the 3 I would trust hernandez the least.
