    heading home for the holiday week. going to the stadium friday and saturday against the rays. hoping to see jeter 3K. would have been lined up perfectly to see it at wrigley if he didn't go down with the injury. lined up to see it now next weekend. fired up!

    and garlic fries. booyah!

    anyone know why the bowling ally closed down on river street? that place was my favorite pregame hangout. it was closed last year, figured they were doing renovations, but turns out they are closed for good? what gives? that place was definitly making $$.

    It probably wasn't making that much once the Stadium moved to the north side of East 161 Street.

    I read everything aside from stans down that way has been hurting big time since the new stadium opened. Bowling alley was my favorite spot too. It was open for at least the beginning of last year, at least till June I think. I don't remember it being closed last season and went there this year and it was shut down.

    i am pretty surprised. it's only an extra block to the stadium, and it's not like there are a ton of bar options before the game.

    you had a lot of room to hang out and BS with friends before the game. stan's gets wayyyy too crowded.
  • Cliffy6745Cliffy6745 Posts: 33,730
    Stans is a zoo unless you get there really early and get a spot at the bar. I always liked it there but just too much. Bowling alley was my favorite for the reasons you just said. Plenty of room, easy to get a drink and good crowd.

    I hear you, it's not too far but you have to walk the opposite way of the stadium when you get off the train.

    nah ..its weird...a million pitchers and pinch hitters and triple switches..wacky baseball
    i realize we both grew up watching different leagues...but the nl style blows

    although the yanks are 12-4 against this weak league ;)

    I would hope they pitch Hughes in the Cleveland series. So far he's not in the probables.

    Sounds like he's getting one more rehab start, probably smart considering the situation. Make sure he's good to go. If they go with a 6 man rotation I will fight girardi. Make a tough decision.

    Yay, noesi is done wasting his time in the major league bullpen.

    He'll most likely go with Nova in the bullpen.

    I personally think freddy is the worst of the bunch, but that would be a tough move and I don't think he would be happy with it. Who would have thought?

    Had a great time at the game! Citi Field is a very nice stadium, and apparently tonight was the largest crowd ever at Citi Field so far. There were a shitload of Yankee fans, which I suppose is hardly surprising, but it seemed like we were drowning out the Mets fans in their own stadium. It's the first time I've experienced a Yankee rivalry in the other team's home field, so it was definitely interesting.

    And I may be stupid saying that, garcias numbers are awesome, I just feel that looking at his slow stuff that he is the worst on the staff.
  • tcaporaletcaporale Posts: 1,577
    I'd agree that Nova is slightly better than Garcia, at least lately, but I feel like Girardi will be more comfortable leaving a veteran pitcher in the rotation.
  • neilybabes86neilybabes86 Posts: 16,057
    nova is 8-4..tough to move him out??

    martin said tonight was like a home game... :lol::lol:

    RH jamie moyer. dude is working with smoke and mirrors. wanna be livan.

    quicker you get him out of the rotation, the better.

    you need the batman sign for phil hughes. that dude is making or breaking the yanks season. is he gonna show up?

    Reyes is a switch hitter, right?

    Me too. I was asking because he was batting right handed against Mo last night.

    Hughes looked great the other day. I wouldn't say he's making or breaking the season though. I mean it would be great if he came back and pitched well and they didn't have to trade for a starter but they will make a move if they need to.
