Nice picture selection, Stang.
Indeed. And hey, you what that first game was?
what was the first game, HC?
Boone just said that he had LeMahieu and Stanton "only in an emergency situation."
Um, skipper?
We get to play two. Fuck.
Hoss, Ma Boone meant like if there was an earthquake and Hal and CashBrain had to be carried out of the wreckage.
Deivi was called up. I had missed that.
AA, it was a BIG WIN!
Deivi Garcia? Yeah, and I hear that Art Dither is being called up, too.
Not saying that Gerrit Cole, half-ace, has to win this second game. That may be impossible with this team. But he DOES have to go out there and give us a GREAT effort.
(Instead, I'm sure, he has already been rattled by the fact that his start has been slightly delayed.)
Fucking autocorrect: Art DITMAR.
Though I kinda like, "Art Dither."
Yes it was, Sir. YES IT WAS!
Hey - for what it's worth - here's an article that the NY POST just dropped on Judge:
https://nypost.com/2022/09/07/inside-aaron-judges-guarded-life-as-he-chases-home-run-record/
Also - looks like California Chinese food for dinner tonight.
Can I get you guys anything?
This should be the Willie Randolph thread! I don’t know if he’s filling in for John or Suzyn, and it will only be a few innings
Willie Randolph is a great New Yorker, like Truman Capote or Roy Cohn.
A shot across Boonie's bow. Cash-ive aggressive move.
Where would the Yankees be without the Twinkies over the last five years?
Al-so...that wins gives the Yanks 82 on the season. Which makes 30 winning seasons in a row. Only the SECOND longest such streak in Yankees history.
And to think: some people feel we complain too much!
HC99 - is there an easy place to find where all of our # of win predictions we made for this season?
I wanted to have a review and chuckle.
Marwin "Not At All a First Baseman" Gonzales playing first base.
Hicks can't hit, but he can sure foul pitches off.
Since 2000, the Yankees are 118-45 against the Twins in the regular season, and 16-2 against them in the postseason.
Double steal.
What was that, 35 pitches in the first inning?
AA, there's a link for predictions on the main page. I had 83
ART FUCKIN' DITHER!!!
YOU ARE EN FEUGO, HOSS!!!
EN FUCKIN' FEUGO!!!
Thank you Rufus - I'll get an egg roll in your honor
I predicted 80 wins and only 80 wins and I still feel that These Our 2022 New York Yankees® could still somehow manage that.
HAHAHAHA Winny
I said 93? Crowded field around that number.
I admit it: I said 77.
Hicks is 8 for 74, since July 28th. But hitting leadoff. Of course.
Judge started play this morning with 330 total bases? That's preposterous.
The Ace is displeased.
Let's see... this game, we have Not a First Baseman along with Not an Ace. Fun stuff.
The perfect recipe for a win
Hicks is playing WHY?
AA
For gas station sushi, I recommend the english meat pies.
Because he’s out best at bunting, Rufus.
Thanks for the tip!
Wow did John get angry at Suzyns suggestion that someone on west coast might be MVP and not Judge!
“Garlick is going to need a steady diet of…..”
Kay is incorrect- Knoblauch means Garlic in German not in Greek. Sorry Michael.
I heard that, Beauregard. He was really pissed off.
AA...yes. My wife routinely called him Garlic. Bernie Williams was Schildkruete. Turtle.
He had a good point, it’s Most Valuable Player, not most unique.
First and second, no outs. Another moment ripe with hilarity!
Ralph!!!!!!!!!
Salami!!!!!!
Florial bunts for a hit!!!!
My God, what's happening???
Ralph? Ralph Kiner-Falefa? What the fuck is Ralph?
A drag bunt hit!? WHAT IS HAPPENING!!??!!!!
Funny, Sterling was complaining that Cole throws too many pitches, and Kay talks about Ryan throwing too many pitches.
Yeah, Ralph Kiner-Falafel.
Totally safe. Bigly.
Hicks won't bunt and he should.
Funny, JM, my wife called him "Garlic Head," too. I just called him "Blockhead." But affectionately.
In a nice way.
My wife used to call him, "that stupid fucking idiot who can't throw to first from 15 feet away"
in a nice way.
Of course.
Just uhm, always call him late for dinner
Florial now batting .111…
Wow, Squiggy gave them seven.
Unexpected, given the tantrum I expected over the late start.
14 Ks for Squiggy. Nice. But 2 more innings (shudder, groan).
We have four runs. It feels like a laugher.
Torres swings at a ball outside the strike zone, one that would've loaded the bases with 1 out. And...pops it up. Sigh. I know, he's had a good day—for him. But he's so bad.
Florial has a multi-hit game. Can the Twins please permanently move to the AL East?
It wasn't playing in New York. Moving to Minnesota didn't help. ICS is just a bad player.
That guy's name was Garlick.
Win, he still sucks.
HICKS for the inning ending . . . . ?
I say we red-light Hicks throughout this entire at-bat.
Miracle!!!!
Jesus, Hicks came through. Three run double.
I shall fart in Hick's general direction.
Finally…
DOUBLE!!!
Kiner slam, Florial bunt hit, Hicks big double.
Something weird is going on.
We have entered the fifth dimension. Up, up and away.
Twins waving white flag on this one…
Looked like Judge almost had that guy. But took the walk!
You know, JM, as a great man once said...
So for once, Torres knows the strike zone—and the ump doesn't.
I said...as a great man once said...
You can't predict baseball, Suzyn.
Yankees Win!!!
Sweeperino.
EXACTLY, JM!
Thu-uhuhuhu-uhuhuh-UHUH-UHUHUH-aaaaaaaahhh-aaaahh-UHH These Our 2022 New York Yankees/Hudson Valley Renegades WIN!!! AGAIN!!!
A long day's journey into...happiness.
What the fuck just happened? Oh. Oh. Wait. It was the Twins. The Hudson Valley Renegades can beat the Twins.
The Carmine Hose managed to lose 1-0 in Tampa tonight, leaving 10 men on base.
Great effort, guys.
I have a subscription to the "Athletic" which IMHO has some top-notch baseball reporting and analysis. Two articles over the past few days really caught my eye. One concerns Joe Maddon and his critique of, interestingly enough, analytics. His opinion on its influence on the game mirrors the throng of smart people who frequent this blog.
The other article is Jim Bowden's top fifty (plus ten, who missed. Silly Wabbit). We have Perazza, Volpe, and the Martian. He likes all three, but not enough to start talking the HOF. What is worrisome is the amount of high-end young talent bubbling in the Orioles pipeline, they will be a handful very soon. And the Rays, in spite of a fairly lengthy run keep finding talent. The Yankees have certainly had some bad "luck" with injuries of late, but the Rays have lost a staggering amount of talent this season and are still snapping at our teams' asses. THAT team manages to keep the stiff upper lip, while our team has a rather fat looking lip. Their young replacements come to the Majors understanding the game, our replacements look like AA talent, trying to make the Magic Angle of Contact, or "really spin that Sumbitch". This is nothing new on this blog, but watching the last few games SHOULD expose Cashman's Digital Baseball by the Numbers to be a fraud, which has accomplished nothing more than buy The Brain an extra five years of employment. I'm of the opinion that constantly firing GMs is a recipe for disaster, but so is continuing allowing The Brain to continue his reign. Showalter should have been hired as the GM ten years ago.
I read that Maddon article and meant to mention it yesterday. Interesting that he isn't against analytics, but is really against the pervasive and overly controlling way they're being used in the clubhouse and dugout to override common sense decisions.
Have to agree with him. It's out of control.
Thanks, guys; interesting to hear.
Yeah, it's the fanaticism of the Sabremetricious that gets me. Yes, usually a bunt is a waste of an out. But there are circumstances when it might be the best play.
That is—was—one of the best things about baseball: the diversity of the ways to win. Not anymore!
