This Water Is Getting Dirty


 So now Donaldson gets shelved.  Suspension for bad behavior, and a Covid IL kicker.

Unfortunately for Chapman, his MRI came back negative. so he has no excuses for sucking.  There must be a psychological mis-alignment that is triggered by profuse sweating, and surfaces as the "yips" on a fastball.?  I am not a doctor, but....

So Boone will bring up Andujar and play Gonzalez at third.  

The red hot, gold glove Hicks will move to left.  So Miguel will have a really good view of things from the bench.  And can pinch hit and fail. 

Meanwhile, Florial gets his last shot in CF.   Do something or sell ceramics .

Someone is going to get injured tonight.  I can feel it in my wings. 

Honk.

He was suspended for his comments which were “disrespectful and in poor judgement.”

I wanted to post MLB's words because that's a pretty lame reason to suspend him.

Looks like couldn't decide swish or bank and hit the back of the rim.

I dont ee wht all the commotion is abiut. If Ii was a ballplayer and either black or white. I would be honored to be called Jackie Robinson. Thats quite a compliment.

JM said...

That's a good point if you look at it that way.

Chapman might go to the IL with the Achilles problem. What's Boone's fascination with Marwin? Yeah, he can play any position, but as his adventure in left showed yesterday, it doesn't mean he's very good at all of them.

Brantley was hitting in AAA, so he gets called up and they play Trevino. Miggy is here and rides the bench instead of playing third. Where a good first baseman like Rizzo could turn him into a Gold Glover.

The inscrutable mind of Boone at work.

And Cole pitches tonight...looking at a "L" tonight...

BTR999 said...

Need to win 2/3 this series. No excuses.

Joe of AZ said...

Soft lol

JM said...

Did you hear him talking about the incident? Sounds like he's been listening to too much gangsta rap.

JM said...

Doug K. said...

So let's look at it all as a positive...

Gallo - out
Donaldson out -AnDUjar back
Florial getting AB's
Chapman most likely hurt as well.

Not too shabby.

Doug K. said...

what's wrong with cole?

Joe of AZ said...

And think of this...imagine if Donaldson was ACTUALLY a white supremacists....great job showing him how inferior you are that you're having a full on meltdown over a joke YOU know the context of cuz he said it two fuckin yrs ago

Platoni said...

I'm starting to believe that anyone calling Cole an "ace" is trolling Yankee fans and laughing their asses off

TheWinWarblist said...

This is all Donaldson's fault.

Kevin said...

On a night that Boone has a "C" lineup, why on earth couldn't he have put DJ at DH, and had Stanton play the outfield? Is the lineup made a month in advance? A year?

JM said...

Cole really has looked pretty shabby tonight. He did have a string of five good starts before today. But he's no Nestor.

Kevin said...

But, but, but he has 11 K's!!!

JM said...

And Wanda, left to languish in the bullpen for an inexplicable amount of time in the past weeks, comes in rusty and lets the game get out of reach.

Only from the mind of Boonolta.

Kevin said...

Amazing. Isn't it?

JM said...

And now Marwin while Miggy keeps sitting.

JM said...

L

Doug K. said...

they are officially a bad team

Beauregard Jackson Pickett Burnside said...

I skipped this game. I think this is the first one this year. Listened to Brown Sabbath instead (Latin-Funk Black Sabbath cover band). Might be doing this more often.

TheWinWarblist said...

This losing streak is all fucking Fuckface Donaldson's fault. The team is cruising and somehow Fuckface Fuckingson finds a fucking way to fuck up the groove. The undead zombie of King George should be released from his Monument Park crypt to immediately trade Fuckface Fuckingson. AND THEN VIOLATE THE TERMS OF THE TRADE BY EATING Fuckface Fuckingson's FUCKING FACE AND ENTRAILS IN THE CLUBHOUSE AS A WARNING TO THE OTHER MISERABLE FUCKERS.

KING GEORGE'S ZOMBIE MAY THEN RETURN TO HIS CRYPT SHITTING DIARRHEAL, HALF DIGESTED Fuckingson ENTRAIL CHUNKS.

A FUCKING JOB WELL DONE, THAT WOULD BE.

HoraceClarke66 said...

I agree that Donaldson is a fuckhead. But for MLB to decide that this comment is beyond the pale, is disgraceful. It's simply caving to TLR's manipulations and social media.

HoraceClarke66 said...

And Warbler, I would like to think that momentum is this important in baseball. But it's not. This is the pre-existing faults in this Yankees team giving way.

And Boone, of course, making no attempt to adjust for this.

Publius said...

Lost 4 out of 5 against Os and White Sox. Bad portents.

BTR999 said...

What went up, has just gone down. Just as we flew so high, so must we have further to fall..
We’ve lost 4/5 and are powerless to do anything about it.

HoraceClarke66 said...

And yeah, great game by Cole, just when we needed him most. He is NOT an ace.

BernBabyBern said...

If MLB is suspending people for "poor judgment," then Boone should be out until at least 2035 based on his managerial decisions last season.

AboveAverage said...

I agree - EXCELLENT performance by Cole tonight. He is just a master on the mound!

BTR999 said...

Good one Bern Baby.

And just in case anyone is trying to summon up some optimism, remember: if it wasn’t for LeMahieu’s 340 ft JV grand slam we’d have lost five in a row…
