Valverde is 26/26 in SV opportunities

Verlander saving his best for Konerko throwing 99 mph

C'mon Paulie!!

I hope Thornton leaves

I hope they dont just IBB betemit just to get to Avila.

why is Ohman in to face all these righties Ozzie gonna leave him in for the wolves just like he did with PV

Tie game! Peavy off the hook for the loss

Leaving Peavy in pretty much shows the white flag

Great now we are screwed

was there any chance for Teahen to get him out?

good job Rios, one pitch out for Verlander probably will extend him an extra inning

CLE on verge of another walk off win

we need some more runs, offense seems to have packed their bags

Dunn!!!

looks like Jake has a decent 2-seamer tonight I have seen a handful of 93s already

This game has the feel of Game 1 in the playoffs. Atmosphere will be great in Chicago hopefully Peavy can feed off of it and pitch a great ball game. Lets hope offense could back up another great game vs Verlander.

ALL IN!!!

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 11:34 PM) The way their bullpen looks, yes they are. The Red Sox are loooking really tough. Rios would bat 8th for them and have no pressure at all. Think how well Swisher is doing with no pressure on him. As much as I want Rios on the next plane out, I just dont see it happening. Yankees have only one reliever in their current bullpen with an ERA over 3.00. Ya they need help on the left side where Thornton certainly comes into play. But to the extent where they are forced to take on Rios, thats a stretch.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 11:23 PM) Nice win. I posted this a few days ago. I think the Yanks take Rios and Sale (or Thorton) for Gardner. Something is up with the LHP scenario. Maybe there is something wrong with Thorton. He pitched well Friday. We could only wish for a Rios + Thornton for Gardner deal. Yankees aren't that stupid to take on Rios' contract.

Nice way to come back after our D decided to not show up in that 3rd inning. Good to see Konerko blast it out after only getting a sac fly that would have normally been clobbered by PK. Buerhle another QS start. Hopefully they don't deal him at the deadline. Morel with 3 hits which is encouraging to see after his time of the bench. Dunn I thought did a good job drawing a pair of walks. Faced alot of pitches today, hopefully he can bring it on vs Verlander tmr

Great win, now just 3.5 out of the division

QUOTE (Real @ Jul 25, 2011 -> 11:04 PM) Thornton's getting traded, i'd bet on it Recent report today said the Yankees were in on Thornton to go along with the Thornton/Rasmus rumors.

Great now Oz will use that as an excuse to put Morel on the bench

Morel with 3 hits

Excellent D right there! Nice job Alexei!
