Three Montas Quotes That Show Just How Screwed We Are

The guy may not be what we needed.

(Quotes pulled from the NY Post)

On the Otani HR: "“He’s a really good hitter and I probably shouldn’t have thrown the same four pitches in a row."

On his overall performance: “I thought I threw the ball well,” Montas said. “I just couldn’t keep the ball in the park.”

On how he's been since coming over to the Yankees: “I don’t know. I keep throwing the same pitches. I think it’s a little bit of luck.”

Oy.

Fits in well with Boone and the YES men.

Clueless. We're doomed.

Cashman is a moron.

Also,

You know how on YES they show the two pictures of a player who has been on the opposing team and the Yankees? Invariably the guy on the other team is young and in shape and on the Yankees the same player is older, heavier, and on the downside of his career.

I can't think of an instance where it went the other way.

IKF minor league stats:

Triple-A: .479 OPS
Double-A: .699 OPS
High-A: .700 OPS
Single-A: .617 OPS

He never hit, he never will.

I'm sure Jeff Weaver, Sonny Gray, Jarret Wright, Kevin Brown (When he wasn't punching something), Randy Johnson, Javy 2X Vasquez, Jamie Garcia, Bryan Mitchell, Michael Piniata, Carl Pavano and my favorite blast from the past No Chance Adams had similar quotes as they failed under pressure.

Doug...you must have forgotten about Babe Ruth!

Doug K. said...

Carl,

Yes. He was not on the downside. Although you have to give me older and heavier. :)

Esteban Loaiza, Freddy Garcia, Kei Igawa, Sidney Ponson, Ted Lily, Cory Lidle(RIP) and every other fuckin lame ass trade Cashman made for a pitcher who shitted in the bed under the NY lights

The Archangel said...

Maybe he can trade Montas to MilanAC.


Fuck Hal and his soccer fetish.
He used the Yankee Brand and name to leverage into soccer franchises.

I hate him with a deep deep passion.
I just hope that he dies before I do. [Sorry Baby Jesus]

That asshole will never sell the team unless we boycott the product.
