The day we feared

Hector Noesi last night threw eight shutout innings for Seattle. Not only that, but...

Noesi's strong performance was backed by Jesus Montero's solo home run in the second inning for Seattle and a two-out, two-run double in the sixth off Oakland starter Tommy Milone that broke the game open. 

Listen: It's April. An ocean must flow under the bridge of that Jesus trade with Seattle before a winner and loser becomes clear. But as long as Pineda is soft-tossing in Florida -- (I don't care how well the prospect looks in Charleston; everybody's a future star in Single A) - we wuz robbed. Everything else is spin.

If Noesi and Montero did what they did yesterday for the Yankees, we'd be heaven today. Instead, we're in hell.

  2. Yes, but we have Raul Ibanez! Another hitter without a position, but with age, experience, and suckitude on his side!

  3. Can we give some credit here?

    I predicted this from the moment the trade was announced.

    Noesi will win 14 games, minimum.

    Our little twerp in A ball will quietly disappear and never pitch for the Yankees.

    Montero will out-hit DH to be A-Rod; and retiree to be Raul Ibanez.

  4. Alphonso, your pants are on fire. You're embarrassing yourself. You loved the Montero trade. Nobody in the history of the world has ever loved a trade as much as you loved the Montero trade.
