CAN'T GET ANY WORSE THAN THAT. THANK YOU. GOOD NIGHT. by BuehrleMan
I ran 18 miles today.
What’d you do, OPOS? I’m feeling just fine, TY.
CAN'T GET ANY WORSE THAN THAT. THANK YOU. GOOD NIGHT. by BuehrleMan
I call bullshit.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
Has Fox finished Fellating Jeter and the Yanks?
You look him square in the eye and tell him "Yes Sir, the check is in the mail"
Read the NYT today.
I was thinking about making this a FanShot because of the conversations we’ve had about the sacrifice bunt, but here’s the link:
Girardi could remind Jeter that he is the hitter he wants swinging in crucial situations. The theory that Jeter should be thinking hit, not bunt, is powerful. He is batting .333 in the postseason and .500 in the World Series, but he defended his decision to try to set up Johnny Damon, who is batting .220 this postseason. "That’s how you win, man," Jeter said. "You win by moving guys over and trying to get them in. I’ve always done that. I’ve always tried to do that. I understand it’s tough to score runs."

I never heard if Jeter did this on his own or Girardi called for it.
I don’t have a problem with bunting in that situation but with 2 strikes, it was insane. I’m thinking Jeter had to do that on his own, no manager would be that stupid.

jeter said he did it on his own with 2 strikes
and admitted it was dumb.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
Did he play today?
I saw no mention of it anywhere.
CAN'T GET ANY WORSE THAN THAT. THANK YOU. GOOD NIGHT. by BuehrleMan
the first pitch to damon was a strike.
called a ball. changed the whole AB.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
If Lee hadn't pitched the 9th in game 1, would he have started tonight?
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
Maybe
That ball hit deep! Way back! You can put it on the boooaaaard...YES!
Long drive into deep right center field! This ball is OUTTA HEEERRRREE!

Never played in a WS either.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
I know.
Times are tough. NY ridng its show pony like a mule, why not Lee?
CAN'T GET ANY WORSE THAN THAT. THANK YOU. GOOD NIGHT. by BuehrleMan
CC is a horse. Lee isn't.
I think both managers made the right decision.
If the world was perfect, it wouldn't be -- Yogi Berra
Well I've taken your side of the discussion
with some DB on Lokkout Landing. Just looking at all sides.
And Lee looked horse-like going 9.
CAN'T GET ANY WORSE THAN THAT. THANK YOU. GOOD NIGHT. by BuehrleMan
Looking at Lee's IP, I say he is horse-like.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"

sabathia has pitched on 3 days rest a whopping 5 more times than lee
" Do you guys know people like you are the reason I wouldn’t come on for exstended periods of time. You rui the baseball blogging expieriance."
by trademaker on May 30, 2009 10:31 PM PDT
Big difference between never and 5 times.
There’s no right answer. I think Manuel did the right thing. If CC doesn’t win tonight, Girardi has painted himself into a corner with AJ and Pettitte having to go on 3 days too against the Phillies on regular rest.
If the world was perfect, it wouldn't be -- Yogi Berra
I would say that I like Lee's chances on short rest versus most anybody else on normal rest.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
I can't argue that.
The only problem is, the reason for doing it would be to bring him back for game 7 on 3 days rest again. He’s never done it in his career once, let alone back to back.
If the world was perfect, it wouldn't be -- Yogi Berra
I dig. Just saying it's a risk I'd be willing to run.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
nice.
spotted damon doing the awesome cunnilingus simulation with swisher after he scored.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
I feel for your wife if that's your idea of carpet munching simulation.

2MM viewers on Nick at Night for those shitty reruns.
His brand of comedy seems to resonate on television. Reruns of "George Lopez" get Nick at Nite’s best ratings, averaging two million for each episode. "We are thrilled at its performance," said Cyma Zarghami, the president of Nickelodeon, adding that Nick at Nite put aside its model of programming only sitcoms of a certain age (at least 10 years old) and sought out "Lopez" reruns immediately after the show ended its run on ABC. Now Nick at Nite schedules two episodes back to back each weeknight from 10 to 11.

Maybe Manuel knew he didn't need Lee, because this blimp would run out of gas.
Then he gets Lee on normal rest tomorrow against the hillbilly, and Charlie goes back to the Bronx up 3-2.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
what happened after arod was hit?
was there a warning? what was girardi doing out there? i missed it.

Howard looks like a AA player against CC.

to try to be fair, i think home plate is jumping around on mike everitt a bit.
in utley’s last AB i thought the first pitch was a strike, called a ball. i thought the second pitch was a ball, called a strike.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
It's true.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
The Lee discussion is, so far, moot.
Fatty holding his own. Seemed to settle down after beaning A-Rod.

Did you miss the top of the 1st?
Not moot til these goobs touch up Tubby for another couple runs.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
As unsuccessful as Tubs has been against the Spanks (8.81 ERA, 0-3)
I think he’s doing fine. And I mentioned he’d settled down after the first. Pettite looked like crap early yesterday, too.
CAN'T GET ANY WORSE THAN THAT. THANK YOU. GOOD NIGHT. by BuehrleMan
pettitte.
pettitte!
and have i mentioned before that he is a lying, cheating bastard? well, he is.

Also, a fag.
He and Clemens enjoy one another. Immensely.

Aww, but they love each other!
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
i don't like pettitte and clemens because they are proven liars and cheaters

that inning is on utley and rollins to some degree.
utley tried something ridiculous when he could have made sure of one out at second, and rollins was in position to stop the ball from going into left field and didn’t. so much for the phillies advantage on defense.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
eh, it seemed melky got a good jump on that.
throw was strong and not too inaccurate, but too late.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
Jesus.

What if Mo had given up the homer?
Then Girardi’s an idiot for not going to Jobi?

Nah, I wouldn't have faulted him
If the best gets beat, so be it
I have read a lot of complaints about Girardi from Yankees fans. Has he made a few odd moves? Sure. But damn, 103 wins and a great playoff run, they should lay off.
"I call Dotel, got his ass kick. I call Linebrink, got his ass kick. Everybody I call is the wrong guy. I guess it's my fault!"
Yeah, he's definitely done some weird stuff over the course of the year
All in all, I like him…but there are nights like tonight that I just don’t get
I think he's pretty good, despite the itchy trigger finger on relievers.
