Did somebody forget the season ain't ovah 'til it's ovah?

I still hate the knockoff Padres jerseys. I might have warmed up to them if...

1. Instead of "Head," Chase Headley used "Headley Lamar."

2. Instead of a blank, Joe Girardi went with "Cashman."

3. Aroldis Chapman simply printed 'Sorry about that."

One and oh with Greg Bird. Suddenly, no one is injured, and Boston can't beat the O's. Dare we dream? (Andrew Benintendi 1 for last 15; Endy Rodriguez throwing 117 pitches in 7-0 blowout; Rafael Devers 3 for last 24, now hitting .250.)

Devers also commits errors at a rate that makes Headley look like Brooks Robinson. And 117 pitches for Rodriguez, didn't he just get off the DL? What on earth is Farrel doing? I understand that they used everyone and their grandmother the night before and you need length, but you can't do that. It makes Binders Joe taking CC out after he hits 85 pitches (every start) look intelligent.

Found headlines today (via news.google.com) on Devers' hitting (bad) and fielding (bad).

We "solved" our 3B problem with dreck and dreck. The Red Sox "solved" their 3B problem with a preemie.

So be it.

DEVERS COULD BE THE WORST FIELDER IN THE WORLD.

......BUT YANKEE FANS WOULD NEVER KNOW IT.

THINK SOMEONE IN OUR LINEUP CAN PUSH A BUNT HIS WAY TO TEST HIM?

NO CHANCE.

GARDNER L
CLINT R (WHENEVER HE COMES BACK)
BIRD L
SANCHEZ R
DIDI L
CASTRO R
HICKS L/R
JUDGE R
HEADLEY L/R

MY IDEA OF OUR BEST LINEUP.

LEAVE THIS LINEUP EVERYDAY WHETHER A LEFTY OR RIGHTY PITCHES.

I LIKE THE LEFT/RIGHT ALTERNATING

TAKE THE PRESSURE OFF JUDGE

DON'T WAIT TO PUT BIRD IN THE 3 HOLE (IT WILL LENGTHEN OUR LINEUP AND GIVE IT CONTINUITY)

HEADLEY 9TH (WHERE HE ALWAYS SHOULD BE)

LETS GO YANKS!

LETS GO!!!

MORE GIRARDI!!!!

GARDY GETS HOT!

BENCH TODAY!

BIRD TRYING TO GET ON A ROLL? (2 WALKS AND A SINGLE)?

BENCH TODAY!

THE LEFTY PITCHING TODAY IS A SOFT TOSSER SO I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT!

YOU WANNA SIT THOSE GUYS AGAINST A CHRIS SALE, O.K., I'M ON BOARD

BUT JESUS CHRIST!!!!

STOP BABYING THESE GUYS!

....AND THE GUY WHO NEEDS A "REST" THE MOST, HE JUST WON'T REST HIM!

JUDGE.

MINDBLOWING.

The Master has betrayed us! He likes the shitty uniforms.

And ANONYMOUS, I think sitting Bird is more about him not being totally in baseball shape and are slowly acclimating him into it. Keep in mind even though he was playing those rehab games, they were every other day and he only played 5 innings in some of them. But Yes, Judge needs about a week off.

Biggest missed opportunity:

"Lies the Castle of My Father"

For Yonder Alonso, of course.

Either that or "Wild Blue"...

LEINSTERY, I HEAR YOU ON BIRD....

.....BUT I'M AFRAID GIRARDI WILL TAKE IT TOO FAR WITH RESTING HIM.

AND I FEEL HIS LEFT HANDED BAT IS VITAL TO OUR OFFENSE....VITAL.

LETS SEE WHAT HAPPENS, THERE ARE 3 RIGHT HANDERS PITCHING AGAINST US IN THIS NEXT SERIES WITH CLEVELAND.

AS FAR AS JUDGE GOES, RIGHT NOW, I FEEL LIKE HE MAY ACTUALLY WANT A FEW DAYS OFF.

IT'S EASY TO SEE HE IS A MESS UP THERE.

Leinstery said...

Of course he'll take it too far. Tomorrow he'll start Bird and bench Castro (7 for his last 9 or something) against Kluber. Bird will struggle and Joe will give him a few days off.

Tomorrow's game is big, Severino has to win. Game 2 is Jaime Garcia so chalk up a loss. Game 3 Is CC and I can't trust CC to not do one of his famous 4 inning masterpieces. Forget winning the series, they have to not get swept.

Did they play the game without gloves today? Some kind of throwback promotion?

Five errors in one inning! We'll take it. I guess the Mariners had a good time out on the town Saturday night.
