Didn't seem like he was blocking the plate to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jose Abreu Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 (edited) QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 23, 2014 -> 02:29 PM) Didn't seem like he was blocking the plate to me I agree, but obviously, the New York review guys always think the opposite of whatever actually happened. That being said, had Nieto caught the ball and tagged him out, it would've been reviewed and he would've been ruled safe. It's a lose-lose situation.

BigHurt3515 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Aug 23, 2014 -> 02:31 PM) Where are all of the posters that came at me for saying Nieto shouldn't have got more time when Flowers was playing horrifically? Awfully quiet nowadays. Hard to b**** about a player who plays once every 5 games and happens to have a bad game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No problem with Flowers as the platoon guy with a solid lefty hitter. I don't think Flowers should be the starter next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 Betances pitches an awful lot. Considering the Yankees aren't contending, you would think Girardi would dial it back a bit on one of his best relievers Yea I know they could make the wildcard, but this team isn't winning anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigHurt3515 Posted August 23, 2014 Share Posted August 23, 2014 QUOTE (raBBit @ Aug 23, 2014 -> 02:44 PM) Not b****ing about Nieto. I am pitching about the people who wanted him to start three games a week. They saw his 265ish average and pleaded that he should play 2-3 times a week. Conveniently ignoring his unsustainable BABIP, receiving issues, the 30%+ strikeout rate and the fact that he's not even a MLB player at this point. I would still like him to play more especially towards the end of the year. Never know how he would do play more consistently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
