Total suckitude
The Yankee bullpen, which, by the way, sucks, sucks even more today. Apparently, one B. Bruney is back in NYC having his bum shoulder checked out.

I must admit it was a nice clutch hit by Kevin(yes i'm 100 percent gay and proud of it)Youkilis.
Now that the Yankees got a excellent performance from their worst starting pitcher(Chamberlain) it should be clear sailing for the next two games, it's going to be fun watching Burnett mow the Red Sox down, 10 strikeouts(My prediction).

More trouble for the Stankees: Bang!!, Bruney & Ransom land on the DL
TAMPA, Fla. -- While Alex Rodriguez moves closer to rejoining the New York Yankees, his backup and two more teammates joined him on the disabled list.
The Yankees placed pitchers Chien-Ming Bang!! and Brian Bruney on the 15-day disabled list and third baseman Cody Ransom on the 60-day DL early Saturday after their 11-inning loss to the Boston Red Sox. Right-hander David Robertson was recalled from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, right-hander Mark Melancon had his contract purchased from Triple-A and right-hander Humberto Sanchez was released.
Ransom strained his right quadriceps muscle while running the bases in the series opener against the Red Sox. Bruney flew to New York on Friday to have his right elbow examined. Wang has a weakness in his hip abductor muscle.
Ransom's injury leaves the Yankees with Angel Berroa and 24-year-old Ramiro Pena at third until Rodriguez is back.
"Cody was our everyday third baseman," Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. "Both our third basemen have very little experience in the big leagues. That's why we gave them a little experience in spring training."
Rodriguez, who had right hip surgery on March 9, could begin playing in minor league games in the next week after increasing his baserunning session on Saturday. He has run the bases twice in the past three days, and the Yankees expect him to rejoin the team by May 15.
The three-time AL MVP continues taking batting practice, fielding grounders and throwing at third while taking part in an extensive off-field workout program.
Wang threw 50 pitches in a bullpen session. Yankees vice president Billy Connors said Wang threw the ball well and that he's working on mechanics and getting stronger.
Wang missed the final 3½ months last season with a foot injury. Wang, 0-3 with a 34.50 ERA in three starts this season, is expected to be re-examined Monday, at which time his rehab schedule could be finalized.
"He can continue to pitch while he's rehabbing," Girardi said. "This is caused by the foot injury. Stabilizing and strengthening the hip is important."

Lots of offense today at Fenway
Red Sox currently lead the Stankees 9-8 in the top of the 7th. A boneheaded baserunning mistake by Pedroia killed a rally in the bottom of the 6th. The Stankees were leading 6-0 at one point, but AJ choked again.
The old AJ Burnett is back. He barely lasted 5 innings & his pitch count was just under 100 pitches. Here's his pitching line today:
Innings pitched: 5
Hits: 8
ER: 8
BB: 3
SO: 3
HR: 2
Pitches: 91 (55 strikes)
As i've stated previously, the guy has shown in the past over & over that he can't pitch under pressure.

Is Bill Buckner playing 2nd base today?
What the hell is wrong with Pedroia today? Did he drink before the game?? Costly two-out error in the 7th allowed the Stankees to tie the game.....

THAT was an excellent performance????? 13 runners in 5 innings? Actually, he sucked. Sort of like Burnett. Now, when you said 10 strikeouts, you really meant 10 runs, n'est pas.? Well,gotta hand it to you, Joe, you fucking moron®, you were close this time.Joe.t said:
I predict that by the all-star break, the Yankees will be trailing the Red Sox, Jays & Rays.
They're awful!!!!!!!!!!
They're awful!!!!!!!!!!

In your dreams dream boy, the chances of this happening are as likely as Kevin(Fruit)Youkilis turning straight.
Who would have thought that Andy Pettitte would be the leading candidate for the Cy Young right now, that's what I like about baseball, there are surprises every year that nobody thinks of.
Actually, Joe, you fucking moron®, Mrs. Youkilis is quite the babe, certainly the likes of which you'll never get near.Joe.t said:

Actually, Joe, you fucking moron®, nobody does think that Andy Pettitte is one of the top 10 candidates for Cy Young right now. And it's quite the pounding ol' Andy is taking this evening.Joe.t said:Who would have thought that Andy Pettitte would be the leading candidate for the Cy Young right now, that's what I like about baseball, there are surprises every year that nobody thinks of.
But you are right about one thing, the surprises that nobody ever thinks of. Who would have thought that, three weeks into the season, the Yankees, with their $100 million pitching staff, would have the worst ERA in baseball at 6.41, more than double that of the Pittsburgh Pirates, whose payroll is less than 25% of that of the Yankees, who, by the way, suck.
Now now Rumples, take it easy on delusional Joe.t, he's a little scatterbrained now because his brain seems to be affected by that awful hair-do that could be causing severe moronity by pulling his hair too tight.
The Yankees really do suck...
...and Brian Cashman should be dismissed. Look at the team in it's parts:
Catcher: Jorge Posada is borderline HOF who has rebounded nicely from his surgery. However, he was developed by a previous administration.
First Base: Mark Teixeira. Bought at a serious premium. He will be a Yankee long after he's worth what he's being paid.
Second Baseman: Robbie Cano. A great, though erratic player, developed under Cashman's watch.
Shortstop: Derek Jeter. A HOF offensive player, though a long time liability at shortstop. Jeter, who should have been moved years ago, was developed by a previous administration.
Third Base: Alex Roidriguez. Bought at a serious premium. He will be a Yankee long after he's worth what he's being paid.
Left Field: Johnny Damon. Bought at a slight premium.
Center Field: Vacant.
Right Field: Nick Swisher. A nice acquisition at a reasonable price by Cashman and co.
DH: Hideki Matsui. Bought, then resigned despite age and infirmity.
SP: Cheeseburger Cheeseburger Sabathia. Bought and paid serious dough for 8 years, despite the fact that he'll be in decline for at least half that contract.
AJ Burnett. A great pitcher in his contract years. His next contract year is 2013. He's erratic and injury-prone the rest of the time. A million dollar arm and a ten cent head.
Andy Pettitte. Developed by a previous administration, Pettitte is still a solid end of the rotation starter.
Joba Chamberlain. Another million dollar arm and ten cent head. The swagger he showed in the bullpen is gone and he now works with no confidence. Given his tendency to excess weight, his problem with alcohol, and his questionable shoulder, Chamberlain will likely wash out before he's 25.
CM Wang. 34.50
The bullpen: Mariano Rivera was developed by a previous administration. The rest of the bullpen sucks. I mean really sucks. I mean sucks so bad that even Joe.T can't find it within the capabilities of his world class bullshit extractor to claim otherwise. How can you spend $200 million on a ballclub and totally overlook the bullpen?

First of all she is butt ugly and second of all there is no doubt that she is a man who got a sex change, take a close look at her/him and tell me that she/he is 100 percent female, I think not, two bits says that she/he is fully hung.

Actually I think it's the hair extensions that could be causing the problem, I'm thinking of getting rid of them but keeping the rest.

She is as ugly as you are honorable. I have yet to see an escort in Montreal as pretty. However, if you really see things that way, it a) explains your manly love for the Yankees b) proves that you are not only mentally handicapped, but also mentally unbalanced and we should refrain from tormenting you further.

Now that is a pretty serious assumption of me anon, I would take it seriously if Merlot agreed with you and I might decide to see a shrink if he did because if anybody would recognize a mentally unbalanced person it would be my good bosom buddy Merlot.

I was in a restaurant in Cambridge, MA last summer and Youk his then girlfriend Enza and her rotten toddler were right next to me. I took some pics with my cell phone but have to transfer them from my old phone to my new. I'll post when I do.
Did you get any pictures of CY Sabadthia sucking last night?Special K said:
Methinks it's time to start up the old Girardi watch. Anybody interested in a pool to guess with old Joe gets his ass canned? BTW, anybody notice how close the Yanks are getting to the cellar?
