    It felt like October in July last night! I was besides myself, a great way to end a weekend

    after watching that crazy error inning and kershaw being on.... I didn't think we had a shot. They must of partied their asses off after the game being in Hollywood and having a day off today

    they deserve it!!

    Oh and jorge's catching ability :)
    thank god he can hit

    Agree 100%, I was dozing off in the 8th but woke up for the 9th and couldn't fall back asleep after. That was one hell of a win.


    Even the part where I said it was october in July :shock: , that just goes to show where my head is....the weekend!! this week is gonna drag :?

    Ha. Didn't catch that, guess I am right there with you.

    what a win. ironic to see the dodgers undoing was because of torre's inability to manage his late inning guys.

    Pretty funny, right?

    I heard Paul Quantrill, Tanyon Sturtz, Scott Proctor, and Steve Karsay all called Broxton after the game to wish him well and let him know his arm will probably fall off in about 6 months.

    I love that when Torre took the job in LA, Proctor was a Dodger. Think he demanded a trade? I agree whole eartedly that Torre was overrated. I have no doubt that if Buck was the skipper from 96-07, they win at least 4 titles. Also agree that Zimmer was a huge influence. they pretty much stopped running aggresively whn Zim left. Too bad Zim wasnt there in 04. They run like crazy with Wakefield to Varitek, and there is no collapse. Also agree that he was the worst when it came to the bullpen. And Girardi is one of the best. Not one Yankee has been in the top 15 in appearances since he took the job. They had 3 of the 5 most Torre years

    looks a little rusty. hasn't fallen apart. but you could see he's finding his way. And the Yankees were doing good working the count against lee the first 2 innings. But 2 first pitch outs didn't help in the 3rd.

    Lots of base hits. Nothing hit terribly hard though. Yeah, gotta be tough to work a count on lee though with all his strikes. The first couple innings were nice though.

    Well that was hit hard but a dp, I'll take it

    Man, not hughes night. Hopefully he is just off and it has nothing to do with the skipped start, skipping starts seemed to fuck with joba last year. I get they have to be careful, routines just seem to be so important to pitchers

    Keith Law's updated list of top 25 prospects in the minors...new version out today

    just one yankee on the list

    6. Jesus Montero, C/DH, NY Yankees. The bat is starting to come around, although he's still not performing at the level he showed the previous two years. Previous ranking: No. 9

    Romine was one of 3 guys that 'Just Missed'

    Dom Brown is the new #1. word

    According to the mariners play by play guy, it seems the mariners just won the world series. Funny thing is, he keeps ranting and raving about how great lee is but it is possibly the last time he sees him pitch in mariners uni.

    it was probably dave simms. he's actually from philly...probably a phils fan. I think the M's announcers are pretty solid

    Yeah, that's him. He mentioned he was from Philly. He was pretty brutal.

    haha, I guess when your team is playing no opposing announcer is good. I dont know the name of the M's other play by play guy (older guy...been around a long time). He's better than simms. It's weird, the old guy starts the game and simms finishes it.

    The older guy is Niehaus, whom I believe won the Ford Frick award in the Hall of Fame. Sims has always been a solid announcer from his days doing the mid-morning show on WFAN. He also does Sunday night football on Westwood One.

    I am happy with this. Suprised Montero moved up though with his poor start. With all the type A free agents the Yankees have signed, I am very happy with their farm. Romine is going to be good. Brackman is pitching much better this year as he moves further away from TJ. McAllister, Banuelos, Nunez, Nova and Sanchez are all solid prospects as well.
