Another quick 1-2-3 inning. Chen is making this look easy

Uribe's playing with a tender lower back? Seems to me like he probably should have been given the day off.

Why would we give a sore player a day off? The young CF, who sits every other game anyway, clearly needed the day off more.

Chen's in a pretty nice rhythm now. It feels like PK and Dye let him off the hook in the 1st.

Sounds like the last couple of weeks to me

true.

 

For some reason, I'm not worried about Abreu to the Yankees. Maybe that reason is stupidity, but hey.

 

 

Abreu's 2006 are not that impressive. I don't think this trade is a big deal either.

Score update: Yankees and Drays tied at 2 in the top of the 4th.

He still gets on base at a huge rate. With the hitters the Yanks have around him, it will just give them another tough out. Who would you rather have out there, Abreu or Guiel?

Yeah, it doesnt bother me that much either. Now if they got Soriano and Zito.........I'd be VERY worried

Everytime Ozzie doesn't play BA, I get legitimately angry. Its incomprehensible to me how he is not playing today. He actually is a CFer, and hes been hitting. Mack can't hit lefties and hes the equivalent of Sammy Sosa is center field.

Yep. That .427 OBP sucks.

So do the Yankees now have a $300M payroll?

Keep walking their leadoff man Javy...it's going to make that 100th loss of your career a lot more likely.

great. theres the walk.

fish I hate Roberts. He's killed us since getting those stupid contacts.

 

Close call.

Another leadoff walk to Roberts..Javier is a moron

With Abreu, I think the Yankees are clearly ahead of us right now on paper. Our bullpen is better, but that's about our only clear advantage. Their lineup might be too left-handed, though.

So do the Yankees now have a $300M payroll?

Nah, but its probably back up to $200 million. It was below that for the whole year.

get Anderson out there now, please

Ha...keep embarrassing us Ozzie with Mackowiak in CF.

I'm so glad we're giving Anderson a rest...

Mack is AWESOME in CF............as if you guys didnt know already

....and of course the hit and run works

.......and of course Mack can't make the play.

 

God is this getting old

We don't need BA in CF, Mack is fine!

Well at least having Mack in CF hasn't cost us at all this game.

 

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

 

THE JAVIER VAZQUEZ BLUES IMPLOSION

I'm sick of this bullspiff. Ozzie must be clinically retarded. Why, when we're in a tight WC race, does he put scrub lineups together? We need to keep winning.
