Mastersons out after this inning

The kids been a stud in his two starts though. We need to find a spot in the rotation for him.

Hmm...

depends on the lead.

4+ = Jones (untested at the MLB level)
3 or less = Bowden (did well last callup)

by bdalebs on Apr 26, 2009 10:13 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yup.

Seems like he’s been in AAA a while. Anyone know exactly how long?

Well, I'll appreciate for you to keep my zingers outta your mouth!

No one can hit the MFY Hunter.

Especially not the MFY.

Clag

NEW YORK (Reuters) – The Cleveland Indians scored 14 runs in the second inning and handed the homestanding New York Yankees a crushing 22-4 defeat on Saturday.

The Indians pounded Yankees starter Wang Chien-ming and reliever Anthony Claggett for 13 of their 25 hits in the second inning on a day when every starter in the Cleveland lineup enjoyed at least one hit.

Manny who?

were you asking, how would I have exceuted the poster?

I wouldn’t have. Not my style to be tacky.

I just think it would have been “funny” to spell it the ‘rap way’ —ho, ho hos, something call it what it is but then prob no TV time.

Jacoby got everyone too hyped up.

They’re all “I wanna steal home TOO!”

Even Papi is doing sprints between innings.

Also, “literally”, what the hell Miller?

never mind my neurosis about Bowden

A 1-2-3 inning with a strikeout of Jeter was nice, so who is next for the Red Sox for the 8th? Lopez? If it is Saito, Paps would be pitching the 9th

by superferret on Apr 26, 2009 10:41 PM EDT reply actions  

Most likely.

Probably with Oki warming behind him?

My guess

If Bowden falters, Saito will be the first out of the pen.

& don’t need to hit rewind.I am convinced if Jeter didn’t make the play, no shortstop could.

Jon Miller

Actually just asked an interesting hypothetical question.

"Are you a real doctor, or a doctor like Dr. Pepper is a doctor?"

by Allen Chace on Apr 26, 2009 11:03 PM EDT reply actions  

"How many times does a guy come up with the bases loaded in consecutive games?"

Kind of exposing the whole “how difficult is it to hit grand slams in consecutive games?” as kind of a luck thing.

All the time. We are the kings of the bases loaded walks and double plays.
