All this time I thought it was the magic eight ball.

BTR999 said...

In June, Domiguez batting .213 with a .530 OPS.

AboveAverage said...

I know…RIGHT!

JM said...

Grisham not sucking. At least today. At least so far.

JM said...

You know, for an organization that's so stat dependent --to the point of stupidity--this continuing fealty to Volpe is especially nuts. They use him as one of the marquee players in their promo graphics. Just inexplicable.

Escarra!

AboveAverage said...

He appeals to the “SEVENTEEN “ demographic

JM said...

Rice!

Carl J. Weitz said...

That's why Escarra goes by the initials J.C.!

AboveAverage said...

Volpe !

(Just practicing in case)

Hinkey Haines said...

AA, I think it should be “Volpe?”

JM said...

Or "Fucking Volpe!"

AboveAverage said...

Volpe ?

AboveAverage said...

There you go - The “SEVENTEEN” demographic

AboveAverage said...

A VOLPE BLAST!!!!!

JM said...

What, no exit velo?

AboveAverage said...

It was that incredibly hit……

AboveAverage said...

Grishy Grishy Grish

AboveAverage said...

I predict the Yankees will need three more runs to WIN

JM said...

Judge no va.

JM said...

Tampa going to win 8-3. Gleyber hit into a DP here in the ninth. And it's a final.

AboveAverage said...

Volpe ?

JM said...

Volpe gets a cheap single then a cheap home run.

JM said...

But they count.

AboveAverage said...

Two more runs and the Yankees Win

JM said...

Rice trips

JM said...

Is Blewett a good name for a relief pitcher? And I don't care what they say, it's not pronounced blew-ETTE.

JM said...

Another cheapie for Volpe.

AboveAverage said...

Volpe Volpe Volpe

AboveAverage said...

There’s the ninth run.

We are now assured of the win.

Thank you all for your participation.

AboveAverage said...

UhOh

JM said...

Schmidt no hitter for seven. Not bad.

BTR999 said...

Schmidt pitching a -

BTR999 said...

J T Ribraker warming up. Will the dilettante boone pull Schmidt?

BTR999 said...

As if we needed it, another reason to hate boone

ranger_lp said...

Judge sucking right now…

ranger_lp said...

Of course Ice Cream Sandwich gets the first hit…

Doug K. said...

It's ok he took Schmidt out. He was already hurt this year and he needed six more outs 15-30 pitches and he was over 100 already.

ranger_lp said...

From X:

Joe Girardi is probably thinking to himself that he
-succeed a legendary manager
-dealt with the closing of Yankee Stadium
-navigated the end of the Core 4
-kept some really mediocre teams over .500
-is the only manager in the last 30 years to have the team sell at the deadline
-got a rebuilding team to Game 7 of the ALCS
- has a ring

and the #Yankees replaced me with a guy that blows bubbles and picks his nose in the dugout.

JM said...

Have to agree with Doug. The guy's been doing great, don't tempt the reinjury gods.

Yeah, Ranger. Judge looks terrible.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Except it should have been a better reliever

JM said...

Remember when some of us called him Binder Boy? Thought the use of stats was overdone then. And now....

JM said...

Hey, he's got JT like JT Snow, plus the Redford movie for his last name. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

JM said...

Thuuuuuuuuuh Yankees win

Had to ask Katie Sharp

Clarke Schmidt Last 3 Games:
20.2 IP, 6 H, 0 R

Schmidt is the 1st pitcher in Yankees history to have a 3-game span with:
✅20.2+ IP
✅6 H or fewer
✅0 R


That’s good Schmidt!

JM said...

Wow, that's quite a run.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

The email that I use for this site just got the following recommendation. I have no idea why, except as a sign of the apocalypse.

Rufus T., add interesting content to your feed. Here are a few recommendations to get started. Alex Rodriguez Chairman and CEO, A-Rod Corp | CEO, Slam Corp | LP, Minnesota Timberwolves and…

Rufus - Does your Abode have a basement?

I'd go hide in it if I were you.

(Bring Martini makings)

13bit said...

The email came from inside Rufus’ basement…

AboveAverage said...

Maybe then he should take shelter in the tool shed…..

Rufus T. Firefly said...

The basement here at the mountaintop lair has many disgusting creepy crawly critters, none of which are a self-loving/loathing creature known as A(sshole)Rod.

I am comfortable with a scope and a clean shot to the road.

AA, the tool shed is more of an arsenal. Although I am short an air cleaner for my Makita brush cutter. Lost it somewhere in the back 40.

Russian spammers, though, are much more of a worry. Why do I get these emails?!?

AboveAverage said...

Bitty, please take Rufus off the list.

Rufus T. Firefly said...

Mr. Bit controls Arods email list?

I am confused. More so than usual.

AboveAverage said...

My advice - avoid the NEWS
