Brian Roberts is the best runner on the Yankees – just wanted to put that out there. Phil Hughes gave up three runs and only went five innings on 89 pitches, however, the start felt like a step forward. He threw strikes…I’ve heard that somewhere, that throwing strikes is key…while giving up only one walk. He let up two dongs but had a career-high nine strikeouts. When you challenge the hitters, good things happen spontaneously. Bottom of the order (get it? BOTO? TOTO, MOTO, BOTO…COPYRIGHTED, BITCHES!) was big for the Yanks, but when you’re stacked with Nick Swisher, Robbie Cano, and “Hot” Melky Cabrera down there, good things happen spontaneously.
Someone get Lonn “F Me? F YOU!!” Trost into the Kangaroo Court, just for Scheizens and Giggles. BTW, good to know that Mariano Rivera has been given an important job to pass the time between offseason workouts.
To be positive, the Mets are still two games above .500 and playing a hot pitching team out in the Pacific time zone. Livan Hernandez has been tough in 3 of 4 May starts. 2-3-4 reached base 8 times. Ryan Church was let out of Purgatory for three consecutive at-bats. Dan Murphy is no longer homeless, he has a house-sitting gig that will keep him on his feet. To be negative, Jose Reyes might hit the DL, which would be a bucket of ice water to a team that is looking for a fire to rally around. Jerry Manuel said “it was obvious he was struggling”. Really? Then why’d you play him? A DL stint would put them down yet another major leaguer (Alex Cora, his backup, is also on the DL). In other unfavorable news, Murphy left 7 runners on base hitting behind 2-3-4. Bobby Valentine is a fan favorite in Japan. J.J. Putz is trending badly versus career norms in all the important categories. J.J. Poo, where are u?
Don’t know the details yet, but Scott Schoeneweis’ wife has died. Whatever the circumstances, it’s a sudden, awful, and tragic loss.
Can we dub Joba FRAGILE yet?
Right knee…better than the left knut
fuckin genius M4E. Joba took a pretty wicked line drive off the bat of Adam Jones on the right side of his knee.
dont start
You know he’s in the locker throwin’ a few back!
yeah right fragile my ass…they would’ve had the gurney out for you Kev if you took that shot off the knee.
anti-hunger pills, huh? Now if you’d said it about CC … or Prince Fielder …
M4, I know that’s wht I’D be doin …
Hell yeah Nat. Me too!
Right now Joba’s first 2 percocets are kicking in.
Peavy nixed that deal huh? Interesting!
Follow those percs with some nyquil
They have injectible pain killers, I bet, and he got the shot and is sitting in a room nicer than any of our living rooms having his knee attended to like clemens’ nuts.
BR2 or some Jager…they look & taste the same to me.
Could it be Peavy saw the score of the White Sox game today and said “No f-ing way!”
damn straight jrz
There are only a handful of places that can afford to pay him what he has coming.
just like a horse.
Jaromir Jagrmeister
Good that Ozzie Guillen doesn’t get Peavy … definitely one of my least favorite baseball people, might be my least liked personality outside of Beantown.
Rangers cou;d’ve used Jaromir…or maybe just more Jagermeister. I used to drink a lot of that shit in college. Now I’d probably do one shot & yak up a week’s worth of breakfast.
I could use a little liniment right now.
Hey Nat, was talking to a Detroit fan and he told me the same thing. At first I thought it was just his loyalties shining through but the more I hear about Ozzie through fans, the less I like him.
whatsa matter Lib, them hammys barkin at ya?
wanna make some easy holiday $$ this weekend? Bet the over in every Yanks/Phils game.
HOTSUI!
history shows again & again how nature points out the folly of men…GODZILLA!!!!!!!!
Rangers needed the ’94 team back this year
lib, Ozzie has produced more than his share of hot air while working in the windy city. He publicly resents, out loud to the press, all the attention the Cubs were getting when, as he puts it, it wasn’t long ago the White Sox won a championship (’05). He’s just a dick, a legend in his own mind.
BR2 if you don’t mind me asking, WTF you doin in El Paso? Pickin off some Mexicans @ the border w/ a high powered rifle?
If only it were legal my friend.I’d open up my own shottin’ gallery.
My wife works for the FedGov’t and this is where we landed.We’re trying to get to either Albany,Pittsburgh or Huntsville
I wouldn’t wish this place on my worst enemy.There is absolutely NOTHING to do here.
We were here about 3 months,did everything El Pisshole has to offer and we’ve been bored since.
We’ve been here since ’04.
Thankfully they have an ice skating rink
BR2, you mean Gitmo’s not on your list? I hear the weather’s great!
I’d like to go there too and open up a shooting gallery too
what a play by wigginton.
Wiggington…is that a 2000LB white guy wanting to be black?
Notorious W.I.G.
Everything back to normal in ARodville
So El Paso’s a dead spot…’bout the only thing I know about the place is I’ve bet against UTEP a few times in college football. I believe Carson Palmer’s little bro Jordan was the QB @ UTEP.
Time for Abracadabra to disappear
Is that a spot for Hughes that just opened up?
Yeah he was.He was originally drafted by the Washington 4Skins,they released him.Then he had a tryout with NO and BUF but no dice so his brother sucked Lewis’ dick to get him a 4th string QB position in Cincy.
I met Jordan a few times…real asshole
Bet against UTEP EVERYTIME,they couldn’t cover a filthy whores spread
tracey morgan…the best.
No shit I didn’t know he was even in the league. So bro you originally from the Big Apple I presume yes?
Born and raised in Scranton.Moved to Fla for a few years,came back to Stroudsburg then moved to New Brunswick then to here
I hear the Yankees fans booing and chanting ASSSHOOOLE.
I wonder if the Unshoed one has anything to do with that?
I said 3 run lead Bruney on the mound in the 8th with 2 out and Markakis takes one in the ribs.Not gonna be markakis but I still think somebody will get wacked.
When’s Aubrey Muff do up again?
