Good job Martin! He was a big pick up. Congrats to Montero on scoring his first major league run.

I knew nothing about the game most of the night, that's what spending three hours in a car waiting for AAA to come and tow you to a gas station will do.

the DH itself is lame. and is last nights game actually over? i mean the 1st 6 innings only took like 8 fucking hours it seemed like. seriously how do you people watch american league baseball games and still sleep and work for a living. it's awful how long they are.
Sorry guys, but a rookie playing DH is fucking lame.
A rookie batting 7th is stupid.

Normally Yankees/Red Sox games last forever. You NL fans can't handle AL games.

terribly long last night

andrew jones at bat in the 7th was 15 or 16 pitches alone
i post on the board of a band that doesn't exsist anymore .......i need my head examined.......
It's awful, last night i switched the game on in the 6th , checked the score and then watched Burn Notice, switched back an hour later and they were only in the 7th :shock: :roll: i mean what in the hell?

Who needs Cliff Lee when we have Ivan Nova, who has a better record than Cliff Lee.

Nova 15 wins. Had some luck. But a win is a wn. 1st place
like 3rd in AL....And he was sent down..could have had a shot at 20 wins
his era is hovering around 4 guys. he'd be the phillies 5th starter.
i wouldn't go that far... more wins than everyone but doc...and like i said..he was sent down..and he is in the AL
AND AND...i am on vacation for the next 1 3 days...
have fun in dirty jersey

i would.
how do you think you get 15 wins while allowing 4 earned runs a game? it's because the yankees are 1st in the league in runs scored. a 4.00 era is pretty fucking below average to bad....and would actually be 6th best on the phillies rotation. 6th!
Wouldn't consider a 4.00 ERA to be bad at all, considering he's a rookie.
Even with the Yankees' offense, I'd still say he's having a pretty great first season.
Of course I'd rather have Lee right now, but it's a little ridiculous to compare them. Down the road who knows how good Nova will be. We still have to let him progress.

just pointing out that it's ridiculous to compare him to cliff lee.
guy looks pretty good for a rookie though....of course the phils have rookie who is 10-1 but with a 2.85 era.

Nice.
Wins are not a reliable stat. Especially when backed up by the best offense in baseball.
Cliff Lee had a game when he pitched 8 innings, gave up 1 run, hit a homer, and still got a no decision.

would you rather have a 3.89 era or a 2.59 era?
would you rather have 198 strikeouts or 85 strikeouts?
would you rather have a 1.05 whip or 1.34?
would you rather have opponents batting .229 or .259?
would you rather have 5 complete games or 0 complete games?
would you rather have 5 shutouts or 0 shutouts?
would you rather have 194 innings pitched or 131 innings pitched?
would you rather have a cy young finalist or....ivan nova?
:?
would u rather have an extra 11 years on the age chart
like 3rd in AL....And he was sent down..could have had a shot at 20 wins
its 9 and....if it comes with all of the above then, absolutely.
his era is hovering around 4 guys. he'd be the phillies 5th starter.
i wouldn't go that far... more wins than everyone but doc...and like i said..he was sent down..and he is in the AL
AND AND...i am on vacation for the next 1 3 days...
have fun in dirty jersey
i think he still has 5 starts left maybe 4
missed 3 or 4 ? maybe 5
should be sitting on 17-18 wins atm
but its all gravy....he is just a child
i would.
how do you think you get 15 wins while allowing 4 earned runs a game? it's because the yankees are 1st in the league in runs scored. a 4.00 era is pretty fucking below average to bad....and would actually be 6th best on the phillies rotation. 6th!
you have fun... in long island
Even with the Yankees' offense, I'd still say he's having a pretty great first season.
Of course I'd rather have Lee right now, but it's a little ridiculous to compare them. Down the road who knows how good Nova will be. We still have to let him progress.
possibly. there was a point in the season he wasn't pitching well.
just pointing out that it's ridiculous to compare him to cliff lee.
guy looks pretty good for a rookie though....of course the phils have rookie who is 10-1 but with a 2.85 era.
Isn't league avg at 3.92? He's at 3.96
