Colace tonight. Paul O'Neill just said he thinks Bellinger is the best left fielder in the league. And he's hitting .315 since returning from the IL. I like the guy.

AboveAverage said...

Agree

JM said...

Colace!

AboveAverage said...

What is that five home runs in six innings ?

AboveAverage said...

Six Homers now

JM said...

Colace!

JM said...

From a former Yankees catcher.

BTR999 said...

Typical Yankee day game after night game.

JM said...

I'm short a Colace!

AboveAverage said...

At least Judge is tearing the cover off the ball ( shoot - sorry that doesn’t return for about two more weeks - too much rust )

Rufus T. Firefly said...

i.e., Boone throwaway

BTR999 said...

Can’t wait to see Cole in the playoffs

JM said...

I can. P.U.

JM said...

Belli!!!

JM said...

Fucking Soto.

JM said...

Guess it's time to watch Columbo or something. I just watched the last five minutes of a semifinal game in the women's basketball World Cup. USA beat Spain 76-66. Spain looked worse than that.

11-2. Kee-rist.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Boone sits rice becuz a lefty is pitching, but plays wells.

Then pinch hits Sanchez with a righty reliever is in.

Booneball!

Murder with too many notes. On cozi, started a half hour ago.
Directed by danger man Patrick McGoohan.

From bad to ugly…

AboveAverage said...

It's beginning to smell a lot like Christmas......

BTR999 said...

Exactly.

AboveAverage said...

Meet the Mets
Get beat by the Mets
Step right up and get
Creamed by the Mets
Bring your kiddies
Bring your wife
Guaranteed to be
Scarred for life
Because the Mets are really
Socking the ball
Knocking those homers
Over the Wall

BTR999 said...

Fucking embarrassment

He should’ve just left Yarborough in; he can handle multiple innings. Instead the overworked Hill (who needs an IL stint just rest) followed by Brad Nobody.

HoraceClarke66 said...

Yeah, heckuva job, Brownie. But as 999 says, you can't expect guys to get up for a day game after a night game. I mean, it's practically sweatshop conditions!

The WinWarblist said...

You should not slander Colace by comparing it to Gerrit Cole. Colace is a solid reliable performer; a role player that gives 100% every dose and does not disappoint.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

They *are* both good at producing 💩

HoraceClarke66 said...

Flouncy, though, is a major concern.

The WinWarblist said...

But only one of them is supposed to produce crap.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

💯

" Who is # 1?"
" You are # 5!"

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Oh my, how to unpack this...🤔

First of all, typo. #6 not #5.
He's playing Hendrix style with thumb on the frets.👍
The song was from yet another short lived classic, secret agent man. But the lyrics refer to the prisoner, given you a number.
He's wearing a suit and tie and probably dropped acid after the taping wearing sandals and a hawaiian shirt.

I miss surf music.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Had a friend that was a conspiracy theorist about the prisoner. "YOU ARE!" number six. With you are being a response to "who is number one?" Meaning that the entire village was made just to keep him captive.

Also like that #2 was live a special guest villain on batman. A new one every episode.

Never explain, never apologize.

Carl J. Weitz said...

Yes Rufus, my typo elevated him from # 6 to # 5. However, as we discovered, he was really # 1. I don't believe that conspiracy that the village was made for him. Metaphorically, number 1 equates to " I'm in charge and no one can ultimately control my destiny." Or something along that line. It was made in 1967 and shown in England. It was aired a year later on CBS as a summer replacement for The Jackie Gleason show. How sweet it was!

Carl J. Weitz said...

Why is that guy Hamner on the team....or even in the Yankees organization? Every time I see his line in the box score, he has given up multiple runs in a fraction of an inning. Every fucking time. If they need a mop up man, let them use Wells.At least get some value out of him because he's the worst all-around catcher in the majors.
