2009 New York Yankees

Yeah MLB has some really serious issues starting games so late.

Shit look at the one game playoff between Detroit and Minny started at 5. Highest Television Ratings all year.

There you go, even if it started at 6:00 I wouldn't complain.

I can't count the times I've feel asleep and missed a walk off home run.
 
Jeter hits another lead off homer.
They made a good decision leading him off.
 
It looks like A-Rod is getting hot.....if he does I feel sorry for the other teams.
 
What is it with teams making blatant boneheaded blunders (say that ten times fast) against the Yankees in these playoffs?

The Yankees are good enough. Don't lose the game/series for yourselves like the Twins did, at least make the Yankees earn it this time...

Again. And this time his players didn't bail him out. What was the deal with pulling Robertson after getting the first 2 guys out in the 11th? After that pitching change, he had only 1 pitcher left. What if the game had kept going?

The Angels were well placed in extra innings with Santana on the mound. He could have gone several innings if necessary.

And Scioscia got the better of Girardi when he called for the pitchout and nailed Gardner trying to steal second.

Hard to believe that a veteran player like Abreu did that. But then again, perhaps he was trying too hard to stick it to the Yankees for letting him go. Since LA won that game, the baserunning blunder will not take on too much significance.
 
I thought for sure the Angels were going to lose after gacking up that 10th inning opportunity. A fine piece of pitching by Rivera to squirm out of that.

That was bad, whether Joe called it or not.

I'm thinking Abreu saw both Jeter and Cano in the outfield and didn't expect Tex hustling behind him.

If Jason was still at first the yankees would have lost this one long ago, he makes his plays. Great investment.
 
I just shed a tear.....
Say it aint' so Mariano....say it aint' so....

It's clear that he spit. It's not clear where it landed. Is it possible that out of the 5 umpires who had a view of the mound (Rivera's back was towards home), 2 base coaches for LA, a dugout full of players plus a bullpen full of pitchers, not one person saw anything worth questioning? There's too much at stake for that to happen.

Now as for Arod, I have no possible explanation for that.
 
Tonight's game doesn't start until 8pm. Guess I won't be watching much of that one. :pissed:

There are players in the Hall who made a career off that pitch. Looks like there will be another one. :D
 
I think the Phillies will provide a little more of a challenge to the Yanks than the Twins and Angels did. It'll be like trying to destroy the Sun by shooting two nukes at it instead of one.
 
There the Champs.

This sucks.
 
Need a solid outing from Burnett tonight to avoid having to bring the series back to NY. I'm tired of hearing about the last time NY had a commanding lead in the ALCS. :wits:
 
So what the hell is going on with AJ Burnett tonight? He is pitching like a cock jockey.
 
HOORAY, there will be a game six! Anaheim postpones the inevitable, but I am glad there will be a game to watch Saturday night.
 
If money actually mattered to the Yankees, I wonder if they would consider Burnett a failure.

He's been pretty mediocre all year. Probably one of the more overpaid players int he league.

Yes, he's overpaid for what he produces. He'd make a decent #4 starter, but as #2 behind CC, he's not getting it done. Maybe less time spent throwing pies in people's faces and more time working on pitching better? :hmmm:

There's no way he should have gone back out there for the 7th. After sitting there that long, the game should have gone to the bullpen. Of the two losses in this series for NY, both can be directly attributed to Girardi's handling of the pitchers.

They have a great line up...
I am not here to talk trash... the Yankees are the best team money can buy.

The Phillies are going to give them a run for their money. If the bullpen can remain solid, may even stun them.

Jersey said it first :)

They do have a great line up but I can't say the same about their bullpen and starting pitching.

I wouldn't say he's the most over paid.

The guy has a wicked curve....good stuff...they brought him in because he was supposed to be good during the playoffs...he's so-so.

Money does matter to them, they just make a shit load of it and they reinvest their money back into the team.

Take a look at how pissed off they were with Parvano.
