Crede's hitting .128 in August

 

:headshake

 

Yeah we're fine with the guys we have on the field now......

 

Kenny needs to make a move, at this point....ANY MOVE.

That falls on the shoulders of Ozzie and KW.  There's no one else that can be criticized for the personnel we have on the field.

We don't know how much financial leeway KW has really been given, except Steff, of course :D , but I do agree that KW and Ozzie are largely responsible, just as they were largely credited with the early success.

He can't even do that right.  (Oakland game)

 

I know that Ozuna gives up a lot to Crede on defense, but when offense is so needed right now I think it's worth the trade off. At least Pablo can get down a bunt and move someone over. Joe's just lost. I mean really, really lost.

1/2 are Yankee fans, 1/2 have been bored to sleep.

Am I the only one who after the games are all done at night lately, I've said to myself "well, at least they're still 10.5 games up, etc.?" It just seems a little depressing that the number keeps going down at such an alarming rate.

I don't know but I mentioned last weekend that I had no interest in going to the Wednesday game (Buehrle vs Santana) and I was right. What a s***ty game that was. I have no interest in going to any more games right now. They absolutely suck at home.

Here's Ozzie's g/f.

Put Blum at 3b, and if PK can't go, call up Gload for 1b. And trust me, I'm not one of the Gload lovers on this site.

I know tomorrow I'll be bored to sleep. The game will be over before my seat is even warm.

The Yankees could have Bernie Willaims pitch tomorrow and we would struggle to get one run.

Good AB by Timo. Thankfully, he tried to pull that outside fastball. It's a shame that the Yankees are playing a 2nd baseman today, or that might have been a hit.

0-7 w/RISP

 

Timo is 0-2 while making 3 outs.

f*** TIMO PEREZ

Alright. Im done. See ya guys tomorrow. (not that it's going to get any better). I can't watch it anymore.

I've actually gotten to the point where I feel sorry for Timo. He has no business being put in this situation. The expectations are not even close to the ability. It would be like signing Todd Ritchie and saying he's our ace.

No, that's a common crutch.

In fact, I was going to post this a couple days ago:

Fill In The Blanks - "It's only a ___ game losing streak, and they're still ____ games in front of the division" because that's all I was hearing despite how weak the Sox have looked for the last 4 or 5 weeks.

:lolhitting

Why can't we play Anderson in the outfield and sit Perez? He seemed to swing a fat stick in the Minnesota game. He couldn't possibly do worse than Timo.

I didn't even think of that -- you're absolutely right. Wow, Gload's still tearing the cover off the ball, isn't he?

 

what a joke this is.

 

I'm out -- my ears are bleeding.

Because Anderson is not perfoming fellatio on Ozzie.

Well, I've been saying all along, that if we don't make the playoffs, I won't be upset because we wouldn't have deserved to make it.

Because than Ozzie Would make sense, duh.

Someone's going to get tossed. Duque should be pulled, and save his arm for future starts.
