Francisco will soon be released and Dave Adams may be called up, from what I heard. I agree with you Daydreamer that right now Boesch is a better player than Francisco is, but Francisco will be gone very soon, and the Yankees had an option on Boesch which is why he got sent down.

The Blue Jays are on a roll(just like I predicted), meanwhile the epic collapse in Sux land continues, god, does this team ever stink to high heaven, Lackey is a walking corpse at this point and a shell of his former self, all that hope gone down the tubes so fast.
If you actually watched the game you would know that not be true Joe. On a side note, looks like Ibanez is haunting the Skanks tonight. Lol.
IP- 4.1, H- 9, R-5, ER-5, ERA- 4.05
This is hardly a line to write home to mother about, sorry K but the line tells it all, John Lackey sucks monkey balls big time.
Nice comeback by the Yankees tonight, and with the big guns coming back the AL East might turn out to be a runaway route for the Yankees.

Again, you didn't see how the runs were scored Joe. 2 on and 2 out, TB hit a booming fly ball way up into the rafters that Napoli couldn't find in the dome, the balled landed helplessly near the first base line in front of first base and Pedroia was urging it to go foul when it stopped right along the foul line. Take those 2 shit runs away and he leaves giving up 3 runs. No error charged because it never touched a Sox glove which I also think is an asinine ruling.
I'm glad you think it'll be a runaway 1.5 months into the season. Be sure to let your bookie know now so he can retire by the all star break!! Hahaha.
Here's that shit hit. http://mlb.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/inde...b_1#gid=2013_05_14_bosmlb_tbamlb_1&mode=video
and there was this MONSTER DOUBLE by Luke Scott. Lol.

Apparently I can't link directly the vids but click on Joyce's single and Luke Scott's double.

They didn't win against Felix they won against a guy with the best name in baseball..Furbush!! Lol. Check the vids I put in the previous response Iggy. Lackey didn't pitch badly at all. Enough with the blinders already.
The Yankees certainly did get a win against King Felix. Did he pitch tonight? Did the Yankees win? Is King Felix gonna pitch again this series? Oui, Oui, and Non.
The other part i am not sure what you are talking about. I dont wear my sunglasses at night .... (sing along....) I wonder if Mr. Furbush has ever been to Bangkok :lol:

Sour grapes, K. Luke Scott's double was a classic slicing ball towards the left field line. It was a legitimate hit.
And Joyce's single was fair according to the rules. Any Red Sox player could have hit a ball that hit the catwalk. No crying in baseball, K, including fans. :violin:
Yankees picked up a game against both the Orioles and Red Sox. May is looking good so far for the Yanks. Not so good for the Red Sox.
I have a sneaking suspicion that you'll be spending Saturday afternoon mowing your bookie's lawn.
It's not whining or sour grapes, it's pointing out facts DD41, but as we all know, you prefer to express yourself in constant hurling of insults instead of facts, etc.
Hey look, Sox picked up a game on both the Skanks and the O's tonight...Looking better for the Sox now but not so much for the Skanks. LOL.
Insults, Me? No, you and your buddies are the kings of insults and shit disturbing, K.
Anyhow, look the 3 Red Sox fans are out in force, since they finally won a game.
You mean you're apartment! It has to be because this is another rules infraction if you mean anything else. Good thing the mods don't give a shit.

Not unless his bookie's name is a European Goddess named Valentina.... lucky you Mr.T !
The way Hughes has pitched the last 2 starts, Vidal Nuno just might get some time in the rotation sooner than later.
Anyone know the timeline for Pineda's return?

I learned it from watching you, dd!!
You lie, K. You watch your little buddies, rumps and merlot.
Hughes either pitches great or pitches horribly. Hughes has had 1 very good year, but has not repeated.
Pineda is supposed to be back late June or early July:

A lot of people have by now forgotten that in the beginning of the 2009 season in which the Yankees won the World Series, the Yankees had one of the worst bullpens in baseball. Girardi and Cashman quickly released the two main culprits (Jose Veras and Jonathan Abaldejo), rebuilt that bullpen, and have not looked back. I think Girardi has an excellent ability to read the body language on a pitcher and know when someone can go past the pitch count he has in mind, or not. He keeps the relievers fresh whereas Joe Torre had a tendency to overwork them, Scott Proctor being the prime example of that.
One of the reasons Mariano Rivera has had success and longevity is that Girardi has used him in a way that keeps him very fresh. It is sort of like the task of managing roasted chickens that come off the rotissary, you have to keep them warm under the heat lamp but you do not want to dry them out. Girardi knows what the right temperature is for his chickens. A lot of managers just do not know what the right temperature is, and things get too hot or too cold. You have to have a pulse on your team.

Actually, Merlot, I was at the House that Ruth Didn't Build a couple of weeks back on a gorgeous Friday night. Despite the fact that the team was on a good streak at the time, there must have been 25,000 empties. Most of the seats sold to the 1%, the $500 boxes, while sold to the wealthy likely paid for by us thanks to the huge tax breaks bestowed on said 1% by the Bush administration, were empty. The rest of the house, those available to the "rest of us" were about half full.
Meanwhile, there were a mere 15,767 in the house in Tampa last night to watch the streaking Rays lose to the slumping Red Sox. Montreal is watching.
