By the by, I thoroughly agree with all of you about the absurdity of batting Judge second. A first-inning home run—which Judge set a record in hitting this year, right?—gives any team a formidable lead.

Truth is, that's much more likely even for clutch hitters than a ninth-inning homer against the other team's closer. Get that big three, right off the bat, and you have a tremendous advantage. But that's not how the computer program sees it.

JM said...

It's incredible how wrong teams were for 125 years, batting their best and most powerful hitters third and fourth. How did we survive?

JM said...

Meanwhile, the Giants are fumble fingered today. Bigly.

Leeeeeeeets get ready to have our hopes kicked in the nuuuuuts!!!!

I took the golden retriever and the border collie and a cocktail Shaker out to the pool this afternoon. The pool gets closed tomorrow. Played fetch with the golden. Drank my French martini. Played with the border collie. Got kisses from the golden. I just know the Yanks are gonna fuck up the afternoon.

JM said...

I can't stand ken Rosenthal. The little dweeb shit.

Hinkey Haines said...

Yesavage just has to throw splitters with occasional fastballs out of the zone as a tease & he’ll have himself a no-hitter.

Hinkey Haines said...

Rosenthal is annoying. Smoltz is infuriating.

JM said...

Smoltz really, really hates the Yankees. It's so transparent. He fawns over anyone they play.

Hinkey Haines said...

Hey, they won’t strike out 27 times today.

JM said...

An accomplishment, Hink.

Hinkey Haines said...

Maybe they should just leave him off the post-season roster.

Doug K. said...

I hate to say this and I mean it it is very tough to say but Aaron Judge is a choker.

Doug K. said...

This team is cooked

Hinkey Haines said...

Hope everyone enjoyed Thursday. It was the last time we’ll see a Yankee or Giant (or Jet, if that’s your preferred form of torture) until 2026.

Good night all.

Turning on home shopping network.

JM said...

Are they selling any loose fitting glitter tops?

Hinkey Haines said...

No savages in the box for the Yankees today. Just one on the mound for Toronto.

Nose hair trimmers and flo-bees

Game over / series over

JM said...

It was fun while it lasted. Fried doesn't have it today.

Ken of Brooklyn said...

This is brutal,,,, but not unexpected 😭

Carl J. Weitz said...

Well, that's the 2025 season!

ranger_lp said...

Series is over…don’t see them coming back…I hope I’m wrong…

ranger_lp said...

Buck Martinez was right…

13bit said...

Sigh

BernBabyBern said...

This is hideous.

BTR999 said...

I gotta check out

BernBabyBern said...

Time to bring in Nick Swisher to pitch.

ranger_lp said...

He was a Banana for a day…

BernBabyBern said...

OK, bring in Luke Weaver now and let him pitch the rest of the game. Let it be 34-0, whatever. I don't care if he's underhanding it in the eighth inning. Don't waste another pitcher in this pathetic display.

Doug K. said...

Hey! Here's something no one has said in a while, "FIRE BOONE! FIRE CASHMAN!" .

Hinkey Haines said...

What’s the record for getting outscored in a series? Gotta go for it.

Doug K. said...

Oh and they're being no hit on top of it.

Hinkey Haines said...

Big comeback starts now!!!

13bit said...

there is no joy in Mudville. And there will be zero accountability when this is all done. "Hey, it's just Chinatown, Jake..."

13bit said...

So, without Warren, the score would be tied, correct?

13bit said...

But I guess that's the same as saying, "Aside from that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?"

Doctor T said...

Okay, Fried's collapse was unexpected. But sending in Bomb's Away Warren AND LEAVING HIM THERE? Jesus, had they shut Toronto down after Fried's mishap, be winning this game right now. Boone just gave up. Another Lucy and the football post-season. I hope nobody bet on this team to win.

I didn't check in on the game yesterday until Blackburn was on the mound and that was a disaster. I decided to see how the game was going by checking this feed first, and well... your comments told me all. But, like a gawker who just has to see the car accident, I started checking out the game. Saw Warren on the mound and watched the score climb to 11-zip. Sigh.

So I thought I would join the grousing. It is what is truly is. An overpriced, poorly assembled collection of talent, developed by one-dimensional trainers, led by a moron, auto-managed by an AI Bot, overseen by a refugee from the Office and paid for by an owner that doesn't care. Fire everyone but the cleaning ladies and begin again. Please.

Just got back from a screening of One Battle After Another . . .

Looks like I missed a Master Class of Mediocrity

Joe of AZ said...

Who is the arrogant asshole in the ya knees dugout that INSISTS on pitching to fuckin Vlad Jr....he's done this to the team a fuckin year with no adjustment

13bit said...

Amen, Doctor T

13bit said...

This is what stupidity looks like.

AboveAverage said...

Thank You Aaron Boone
Can't wait to hear your post game
Convicted Genius

13bit said...

Hit "publish" too fast. This is what stupidity looks like. At first, I thought it was metrics or AI or something dumb, but I think your tag fits best: "arrogant asshole" works. Even AI could not manage this badly.

13bit said...

YES - Convicted Genius, Towering Moron, Unparalleled Idiot.

Joe of AZ said...

For real... literally fuckin insane to do this all year with no adjustment

Joe of AZ said...

Flaming fucker lol

13bit said...

God, do we suck.
