Split

Monday, August 9, 2010 at 11:01 pm by SJK

Featured

Swisher: 0-5, 7 LOB, Based loaded K in the 7th vs. Bard
Posada: big throwing error in the 2nd, which led to a run
Granderson: 0-4, Bases loaded K in the 7th vs. Lester**

**Supposedly, Granderson starting against one of the best lefties in the game was due to Gardner getting a mental health day. That's the only way you could remotely justify Granderson's inclusion today. If we see Granderson against the lefties of Texas, then we'll....make a funny picture of Girardi??

    Anyone know what happened to the fan who go hit in the face from Jacoby’s foul ball in the 9th?

    Anyone see it?

    Wow what a series by the sox. 6 games out and their team has had injuries. They are the only team in the history of sports to be decimated by injuries. Tito is doing the best job of his career holding a team with a 150 million dollar payroll in playoff contention.

    We should have won this fucking series. I’ll take the 6 game lead with less than 60 to play. All in all I think we’re still in great shape for the stretch run. Oh, and by the way, Boston still sucks!

    What happened with the douche bag who interfered and cost the Yanks a sacrifice fly? As for Granderson I know we cannot jump Cashman on this site, but sorry this was a major fuck up.

    “Curtis could not play CF on my Big Red Machine teams of the 70′s. Did I mention we swept the Yankees in the ’76 World Series?”

    Cashman gets rid of the clutch and productive bats of Damon, Matsui and Melky (because he liked the nightlife, he liked to party…) for Granderson !?

  12. Steve says:

    Brett Gardner is hitting .164/.301/.230 since the all-star break. If Girardi felt he needed a day off, why do we think that is so crazy? Sometimes managing is about knowing who needs a break.

    Boston caught 2 big breaks in that inning, it happens.

    Also, I can’t tell if the guy who is blaming Girardi b/c of his fantasy baseball team is yanking our chain or not. Seriously?

  13. Joe Girardi's Orthodontist says:

    Looking silly is not something I take into consideration when advising my adult patients to get braces. I am almost positive that Brett Gardner’s mild overbite leads to his inability to steal a base in a big spot.

  14. Phieleblunt says:

    Yeah we should have won the series, but at least we did not lose any ground and I think The Yankees have now adopted Josh Beckett so that Pedro is no longer the only one who calls the Yankees daddy. I thought Hughes looked pretty good as did Sabathia so all in all a good series.

  15. I agree says:

    Granderson has been giving plenty of opportunities by now to show something, anything vs lefties. times up!!!! SIT DOWN.

    Granderson is a really nice guy, i think to nice. It’s starting to make me not like him. I’m not liking a guy because he’s to nice? strange. but true.

  16. Austin Jackson says:

    I’m hitting .246 vs lefties and have almost as many K’s as hits. Do you really think my 300 avg will last?

    Heck Curtis Granderson hit 302 once himself.

    Was anyone else treated to Fat Ass all over ESPNNEWS last night swearing that the Sox still have the Yankees in their sights? Nauseating. Hey Toronto, treat these fuckers the same way treated the Rays and us. Stop bending over for them.

    It wasn’t just Granderson who failed when all he needed was a sac fly in the 7th. I seem to recall the Cap’n having a nice, efficient 3 pitch strike out in that inning with only 1 out.

  20. Pat D says:

    That fan didn’t interfere with the ball. It was pretty clear from the replay that he never touched the ball. Could he have distracted Kalish? Sure, but he never touched the ball.

    I admit paying Granderson 5.5 million when we could have gotten the same production in-home with Ajax at 400K.

    But, how about that Dustin Mosley kid! Yup, all me…
