I have this terrifying fear that Aroldis Chapman will pitch the ninth inning tonight, attempting to close a three- or four-run lead. And instead of a series-winning, month-saving victory, we will suffer a soul-crushing defeat.
Wouldn't it be smart to do what major league relievers usually do when rehabbing in the minors? That is, start the game, pitch an inning, and go from there. Don't subject Chapman to a ninth inning pressure cooker. If he has control or command issues, let it happen in the first, with your actual starter warming in the pen.
It makes sense. Why do we all know that the Yankees will never do it?
Because they fucking well won't, that's why. You know it, I know it, every-fucking-one fucking knows it. They won't even teach hitting against the shift, like an opposite field basehit would make the shriveled fucking rotting penis of the bloated fucking gas-filled corpse of King George (god fucking rest his soul) fall off or something.
ReplyDeleteFuck.
Duque, you have to stop this. Your getting yourself too worked up.
ReplyDeleteDoes Aaron Boone consult Satan or the opposing team before making his lineups...why the hell does he insist on batting Hicks 3rd he's a .240 hitter for crying out loud
ReplyDeleteWarblist - you just made me snort pumpkin ale through my nose. Not as painful as bourbon, but pretty spicy.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Stratman.
ReplyDeleteStart Chappie, bring in Betances for the second, Green for the third, then Sheffield until Robbie needs to take over.
ReplyDeleteIt could work.
That was a nice 2nd inning for Sevy. Jabber to watch the game on ESPN tonight. I'm on vacation in Bermuda with the family.
ReplyDeleteHave to watch the game! C'mon autocorrect you fucking fuck nut.
ReplyDeleteEl Conquistador!!! To the opposite field!!!
ReplyDeleteICS continues his assault the Mendoza line.
ReplyDeleteNuni Nuni Nuni !! Nuni Nuni Nuni !! Nuni Nuni Nuni !! Nuni Nuni Nuni !!
ReplyDeleteMiggy!!
ReplyDeleteVoitVoitVoitVoitVoit!!!!!
ReplyDeleteVoit is roit!
ReplyDeleteThere we go!!!! ICS needs to watch tapes ofnVoit...remind him how it's done! Oppo field approach.
ReplyDeleteLuke! The force is with you!
ReplyDeleteLOOK AT THE SIZE OF THAT KIDS HEAD!!! GO GO VOIT GO!!!
ReplyDeleteI didn't see Bird in the dugout celebrating.
ReplyDeleteAm I wrong?
YEAH THAT'S RIGHT!! THAT'S A FUCKING HOME RUN YOU BOSTON FUCKERS!!
ReplyDeleteWhooooooooooHooooooooo 8-1
ReplyDeleteTake that, Kelly you POS!
ReplyDeleteThat's why Hicks is hitting third.
ReplyDeleteOn a religious note, God bless Machine Gun Kelly:

Can he pitch against the Yankees every game please?
Sox looking tired and like they don't care. Good.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of looks, doesn't ICS look scared behind the plate now? The contrast with AnDUjar is amazing. AnDUjar has that "do you want a piece of me, punk?" look.
ReplyDeleteAhh. Ahh ah ahh. Ahem. Ahem.
ReplyDeleteJust warming up.
I'd like to see an inning of Young Justus tonight.
ReplyDeleteRuf! How's your night?
ReplyDeleteThe Master calls our name!
ReplyDeleteTWW,
ReplyDeleteMy night is good right now. Just finished a baked haddock dinner AND I get to see the NESN postgame show on my local cable. It should be fun to watch the pain.
On a down note, El Chapo will probably give up three runs in the ninth as a 'tune-up'.
I hope they score another touchdown this inning.
ReplyDeleteSheffield is up!!!!!
The Master just called McCutcheon "Lawrence", as in the football player.
ReplyDeleteBird lives!
ReplyDeleteKaw! Kaw!
ReplyDeleteHad a French Chardonnay with a shrimp curry. Room service. It was yummy. Too tired to leave the hotel after travelling.
ReplyDeleteJustus! Justus! Justus!
ReplyDeleteOkay. That's enough Justus.
ReplyDeleteBig Toe sighting even! What a night!
ReplyDeleteI'm retired. The thing I'll miss second-least (after asshole coworkers) is the traveling. When I travel now, it is convenient hours and generally better accommodations than what work would have paid for.
ReplyDeleteRothschild should go and have a talk with the kid --"just throw strikes".
ReplyDeleteI think I understand why Sheffield hasn't been brought up yet. He's giving us the ol Gallegos special.
ReplyDeleteWell that was refreshing. AHH! AHHH!!! Aha-ah-haaaaa!! HaaHaahahahahaaaaaaaaahhhh!!
ReplyDeleteAAaAhhaaaa-haha-haaa-hhhhhHHHHHHHHaaaaAAHHHHHHHHHHHaaaa-ah-ah-ah-aaaaaaaaAaAaHaHaHaaaAAAAAAhhhhhhhhhhhh !!!!!
Niiice!
ReplyDeleteWhoooooouyryuitryhjjkkoooooooooii Hoooooooojuuiiouoooooooooooooo!
ReplyDeleteThe NESN idiots are claiming the short porch is the reason they lost. Steve Lyons is the voice of reason, incredibly. "A home run is a home run"
ReplyDeleteAn AstroGlide kind of day.
ReplyDeleteWarbler, Bermuda must agree with you. You are EN FUEGO tonight.
ReplyDeleteHow do you like Bermuda? I got there once for a wedding. Beautiful place, though it felt a little odd, like a ritzy suburb moved to the middle of the ocean. Liked those shandies, though.
By the by, technically, Andujar is "El Matador" while it is Torres who is "El Conquistador."
But hey, you can call him whatever you want as long as he keeps hitting like this.
They were saying today he is the first rookie third baseman EVER with at least 25 homers and 40 doubles. Amazing.
Hmmm LOVE when my Yanks make me eat my words....
ReplyDeleteI DRANK ALL THE KOOL AID TONIGHT
LONG LIVE HICKS
LING LIVE ICS
LONG LIVE THE PROCESS
FUCK YA TAKE THAT RED SUX
Hoss, there needs to be some sort of appendix listing all the nicknames.
ReplyDeleteVery good idea, Warbler!
ReplyDeleteAnDUjar: El Matador
Torres: El Conquistador
Boone: El Stupido, Ma
Cashman: El Bastardo, The Office Boy, Pete Campbell
Sanchez: Jesus, Ice Cream Sandwiches, El Guapo
Chapman: Machine Gun, Chappie, El Chapo
Betances: Toonces, Bloody Paw
Neil: The Hat
Gray: The Lost Boy
Robertson: Houdini
Bird: Bathroom Break
Warblist could use a visit or two or three to the psychiatric ER.
