Boring player interviews are even more boring with an interpreter.

JM said...

AA, what software do you use to make these great game day graphics?

AboveAverage said...

pho to shoup

JM said...

Ah. Thanks.

JM said...

Mariners lineup is suddenly scarier.

AboveAverage said...

uhm. You're Welcome.

Doug K. said...

Here's a gaslight. Graphic on YES... Yankees have the best extra inning record at home since 2020 in MLB. But they kinda suck at extra inning games now, as we all know. So what does how they did in other years matter?

JM said...

I thought the same thing, Doug. Total horseshit.

JM said...

Marlins want Spencer for one of their starters. Not worth it.

BTR999 said...

Could it be…Cashman is done trading?

JM said...

I kinda hope so.

JM said...

Oh my! Stanton!

JM said...

Stanton can still hit. Can't run, but he's been really good since he got off the IL.

AboveAverage said...

Yeah - that works

JM said...

Rice!

JM said...

Seven run lead and I bet Stroman can't get out of the fourth.

AboveAverage said...

Three more runs and we might just pull this one out . . .

Kevin said...

This is gonna be one of those trade deadlines in which The Brain says, "We tried to make a deal, but nothing made sense" at tonight's press conference. Isn't it? FUCK.

Copelius said...

Dammit man. We were all thinking it, but you had to tempt the juju gods.

AboveAverage said...

JM - you use photoshop?

Mildred Lopez said...

Only question is can the bullpen hold the lead because the offense likely blowed their load.

AboveAverage said...

Just power down some kingers of Blue Ribbon and you’ll be fine….


“Now it’s Dark”

AboveAverage said...

Here comes the rain….

AboveAverage said...

Running out of time for Volpe’s next error

edb said...

The Buffoon Manager ain't going noweher. Cashman loves him and he sucks off Cashman.

JM said...

No, I was a writer. The Art Directors used Photoshop.

JM said...

Word is we're getting Bednar from Pittsburgh. He's pretty damn good, hope we don't overpay. Pending medical.

13bit said...

That Cashman makes the best trades for pitching. We are so lucky. Thanks, Papa Hal…

ranger_lp said...

Top catching prospect Rafael Flores and 2 others go to Pirates in agreement

JM said...

Yeah, we don't need no stinking catchers. We have Wells.

ranger_lp said...

The Yankees, who acquired All Star closer David Bednar, are sending the Pirates:
Catcher Rafael Flores, their No. 8 prospect
Cather/1B Edgleen Perez, their No. 14 prospect
Center fielder Brian Sanchez.

BTR999 said...

Multiple sources confirm the trade, just waiting on announcement

Carl J. Weitz said...

Rumor has it that Cashman as his eye on another Pirate pitcher ( because he comes cheaply). None other than " Mr. Home Run" Heaney.

BTR999 said...

🎶🎼…if he only had a brain🎼

BTR999 said...

Jack Curry reports Yanks have acquired Jake Bird from COL

BTR999 said...

Details to follo

BTR999 said...

In the Bird trade, Prospects Roc Riggio and Ben Shields are headed back to Colorado, reports Mark Feinsand of MLB.com.

AboveAverage said...

I wear/wore/wore out/wore thru too many hats.

NOW my brain hurts

AboveAverage said...

Stump Rodgers of Truth International reports that the Yankees have acquired a three pound cube of expired surgical-grade cadaver putty and a 4-pack of Wrigley's Freedent Spearmint Gum from the Tokyo Yakult Swallows in exchange for Aaron Boone and Brain Cashman's unwashed Elf costume.

BTR999 said...

Game to resume approx 5:20. Can Bednar & Bird get here by then?

Pocono Steve said...

Bird has a 1.48 WHIP. Gross. He'll fit right into this crap bullpen.

AboveAverage said...

That'll give Volpe a chance to add another . . .

13bit said...

Some days, you just wake up and everything is different.

13bit said...

Also, these genius moves have me thinking of "Amazing Grace."

BTR999 said...

Slater immediately hits into DP. Great pickup

BTR999 said...

Peraza traded to Angels. No other details

BTR999 said...

How sweet the sound?

AboveAverage said...

Nestor to San Diego….phew

13bit said...

We once were lost, but now are found. Saved. By Brian, our father.

Publius said...

Is that it for Volpe at short? Is he an elite utility guy now?

ranger_lp said...

Angels get - Oswald Peraza
Yankees get - Wilberson De Pena

ranger_lp said...

And International money

BTR999 said...

.The Yankees and Rays swung an in-game trade that will send José Caballero to the opposite dugout, a source told MLB.com

ranger_lp said...

Bullpen looks halfway decent to be honest…

BTR999 said...

they've reached a deal to acquire Giants closer Camilo Doval. Can’t keep up

Carl J. Weitz said...

Cashman actually did well. I'm shocked. Unless the players he got are nursing injuries like the past 5 years.

Carl J. Weitz said...

Camilo Dovals....didn't he and his brothers' group sing the 60s classic, The Bristol Stomp?

BTR999 said...

Yes he did

“ The kids in Bristol are sharp as a pistol
When they do the Bristol Stomp”

HoraceClarke66 said...

Oh, and the, uh, Yankees win. Cough.
