How about those Yankees!

Posted by: Triple Threat

The 2007 baseball season is underway and it was a good start for the Yankees! Offense was its usual productive self and the end of the bullpen pitched well.

And to make the day even better, the Red Sox lost to KC.

Damn, 1 win against the "Tampa Bay Devil Rays" and your all excited?

I watched the game and like the Yank'mees to but geez ha ha ha

How about A-Rod missing a dink of a foul pop for an error?

More importantly, how about me taking another IM pool title?

He's in midseason form, what can I say?

Posted by: IainDaniel

Ok.... How about them Jays

Posted by: P-funk

who the fuck cares?

The Indians beat the White Sox 12-5.

Posted by: IainDaniel

And the Jays beat the Tigers (defending American League Champs)

Posted by: I Are Baboon

I have five Yankees on my fantasy team:

Chin Cum Wang
A-ROD
Hideki Matsui
Andy Pettitte
Jorge Posada

Homers for A-ROD and Posada last night!

Yankees still suck.

Posted by: Goodfella9783

I have one Yankee (Pettite) and no Red Sox on mine. A guy on my team pretty much took the whole Sox team.

I will take a peak against the defending American league champs, compared to the Yanks who peaked against a pitiful Devil Ray team

Posted by: Goodfella9783

Who do the Jays got goin today? I know they and the Yanks have day games. Beckett starting for the Sox tonight at 8.

EDIT: Just checked. Burnett vs. Robertson. Rainy and 40 in the D right now.

Posted by: IainDaniel

Yep Burnett.

And we surely beat the crap out of the Yanks when they come to AT&T

I don't know if you Wankee fans are dillusional or something, but this squad is not that great.

The Pitching is not that great so far, I think Petitte will do OK and once Wang comes back he'll pick up where he left off. Mussina I hope can still continue.

Basically what the Yanks need is for the starters to try to keep them in games while their sluggers score 6 runs....enough for the middle relief to keep it close for Mariano.

Posted by: Triple Threat

I agree with min0(s). The offense should score some runs, and as long as the starters don't suck too bad, they'll be OK.

That said, getting off to a 2-3 start at home against TB and Balt was not good.

When does Clemens join the rotation?

Please. If he joins either the Yankees or the Red Sox, American League hitting will pound him. I'd still like to see him join the Sox for sentimental reasons though. The Sox could use a decent 5th starter.

Posted by: soxmuscle

I'm not surprised at how the Yankees have started. They have a terrible pitching staff and one of the best line-ups ever constructed. If the offense can power them into the playoffs, anything can happen, but I don't see their pitching doing enough to get them there.

Should be a fun summer..

General manager Brian Cashman said Monday that the Yankees are still hoping to get Chien-Ming Wang (hamstring) back at the end of the month.
Wang is expected to make two minor league rehab appearances before returning. "He's coming along," Cashman said. "We’re lining him up for sometime in late April."

Let's see. 42 years old. Bad back. Perhaps it's time for him to think about retirement?

As one article recently stated, A-rod may have an MVP year, then go somewhere else.

As for the Yankees. It's been a while since they won the big one. 2000, right?

I hope they get bumped again this year.

I don't like the big money teams that buy da big players.

What's up with Jeter? 6 errors in 11 games.

Did he spend the winter working out with Arod?

Posted by: Triple Threat

It didn't take long for Pavano to get back to where he's been the last 2 years - on the disabled list.

And Mussina joined him, too. So lets' see. Their starting rotation is now Pettitte and 4 other 1st or 2nd year pitchers.

Posted by: IainDaniel

Well we lost BJ Ryan to the 15 day yesterday, after he blew a save. Elbow problems.

Posted by: min0 lee

I knew sooner or later Pavano was going on the DL, why did they sign this weakling in the first place.

Go Mo!

He's always been a below average defensive short stop. The errors he's accumulate thus far this season don't surprise me.

The numbers do the talking. Paps is up and coming, Rivera is on his way out. We're just talkin about two players, screw what happened in the 90's.

Posted by: Goodfella9783

Sox game got bumped to 12:05 PM today because of the rain. Josh Beckett vs. Ervin Santana. Great matchup. Beckett has impressed me the most out of any Sox player thus far.

Marathon is about to start in 10 mins. too. If it weren't for the rain, Boston would be a madhouse.

Screw what happened last year for that matter, Mo still has some left in him and no matter what happens this season no one can take anything away from him.

He was one of the prime reason the Yanks won.

Posted by: Goodfella9783

Yep he's easily earned a ticket to Cooperstown.

Pettite and Schilling should be a good one this week if it happens.

Jeter is one of the best offensive short stops in the game, but please, please tell me you don't buy into the Gold Glove shenanigans and crown him the best defensive short stop in the league. He's average at best, most statistics (range factor, zone rating, etc.) rate him at or near the bottom of the barrel in terms of defense.

Of course, I'd love to see him in a Sox uniform though..

Mo can have about a hundred more bad days before I begin to consider him done. He's the best relief pitcher in baseball history, period.

This is his second season, he won't hit arbitration for another two years.

He's going to be a good one, I thought they were crazy to even think about making him a starter.

The Gold Glove award has become completely useless because as you mentioned, players like Jeter win it simply for who they are.

You are right though, he rarely loses a game because of his defense.

Eh...

I'm more skeptical than most. He pretty much relies on his two-plus pitches and nothing else. If he can make adjustments over the years as Mo seemed to do, he'll be the next great one. If he doesn't, I could see a Brad Lidge like crumble a couple years from now.

Also, I agree, he's much better suited for the closers role than he is starting.

Great win for the Yankees today. Down 6-2, 2 out and bases empty in the bottom of the ninth, they come back to win 8-6 on an A-Rod walkoff HR.

Next up for the Yankees is Boston. Let the trash talking begin.

Red Sox had a nice comeback win too.

Should have just left Halliday in. What he can't pitch 10 innings and then another 9 the next start?

I'm liking how the AL east is looking right now. Tight race with the Sox on top

Posted by: I Are Baboon

A-Rod is out of his friggin mind right now. He gets knocked for not being clutch, but the Yanks have never needed him as much as they need him now (well, as far as the regular season goes anyway).

Posted by: IainDaniel

Where are the Chi-sox fans?!?!?! someone should be all over the no-no thrown last night. Shit he was 1 walk away from a perfect game.

I am happy for the guy, he went through a hard period last year.

The crap he went through last year was unnecessary.

Let's hope he's not just a Mr. April.

Albert had one of the best Aprils in history last year and then got hurt for 3 weeks and still put up damn near identical numbers as Howard who won the MVP! Now how can you give it to Howard whenever Albert missed 3 weeks?!?! Also think about it the Cards wouldve never went anywhere without him!

Posted by: Triple Threat

It was painful watching Karstens pitch. It doesn't figure to get much better tomorrow, unless NY can find a way to score a dozen or so runs.

On a brighter note, Wang is due back Tuesday and Mussina by next weekend. Hopefully NY isn't 10 games back by then.

Posted by: Goodfella9783

I just hope the Sox stay hot or at least consistent throughout the season. They pull this every year at the beginning of the season. And how about the Yankees being 0-7 when A-Rod doesn't go deep? Are they going to start bashing him for not hitting a HR every game now?

back-to-back-to-back-to-back
Manny-Drew-Lowell-Varitek

All with 2 outs.

I would love to come in here and chew up the Wankees, but the Jays have sucked ass too.

If injuries don't hinder this team, they'll win the division and possibly the World Series this year.

Just an FYI.

They certainly look solid, but so dont the Mets. It will be a fun season.

I really like their addition from Japan. I know he hasnt been great yet, but his first start he showed what he can do. He was falling off a bit to the first base side his last start and his mechanics were a bit off. But he will be big for em.

Even if the Sox didn't take this series I'd still be happy. I love watchin playoff atmosphere baseball like this. In April

The Cards abd Cubs are the equivalent of this without the media coverage.

I love it when the Red Sox make history and do it against the NYY.

Posted by: Triple Threat

Being an eternal optimist, I can find at least a couple of bright spots for the Yankess after the weekend pummeling. One, Andy Pettitte pitched great. Two,

it wasn't a 4 game series.

As a baseball fan, I thought the 4 in a row was impressive.

As a Yankee fan, it sucked big time.

The Red Sox did what they were supposed to do and beat up on your rookies. The series would have been different if your pitching staff wasn't beat to hell.

Or if there pitching staff didn't suck balls

Going to be gorgeous here in Boston for the Jays/Sox. Supposed to hit 85 today.

Ohka vs. Wakefield
Halladay vs. Tavarez

Posted by: IainDaniel

Ohka has sucked.

And unless Halladay goes all nine the Jays are in Trouble with there Bullpen.

Posted by: Goodfella9783

Halladay has been awesome against the Sox. It's ashame they can't finish his work off. When is BJ due back?

Posted by: IainDaniel

He is gone 4-6 weeks, from what I remember. Even he has looked off this season though. Hopefully it is all around his elbow.

The Jays bats have not been on, and there bullpen is a joke.

I'll be at tomorrow's game. Bleacher seats. Going to hit up the Beerworks before the game. Mmmmmm.....

Posted by: IainDaniel

Got an extra ticket... I can be there in 10 hrs.

Posted by: I Are Baboon

I have two but they are spoken for. One of those sorry bastards will be driving my drunken ass.

Posted by: IainDaniel

Yeah that is a good setup... Cause there is no way I would be driving either.

Losing game 1 was the killer. Mo isn't a rookie.

Posted by: Goodfella9783

Yeah I have a feeling next weekend is going to be a little different with Wang, Moose and Matsui back. And Posada at full strength.

We can only hope.

It can't be any worse, could it? Have you seen the pitching matchups yet?

Nice sweep for the Jays

...no Glaus either.

Posted by: IainDaniel

Yeah there Bats finally woke up.

Boston couldn't field worth a damn though.

Now they are off to Yankee Stadium, tough little road swing.

Thankfully the 100 ounces of beer I drank before the game kept me from getting too pissed off.

FYI, the Fenway skybox view is better than the view from the deepest center field bleachers.

Aren't the food and drinks better from the skybox too?

Posted by: Jodi

We need a separate ongoing baseball games thread to talk about all this

One titled the Yankees is not cutting it for me.

Nice work Jays!
