    It's proven. :lol: Shit this team can't win in the regular season. WHat are they 1-13 when not hitting a HR? :lol:

    Saw what, homie? They can't win in the regular season? Except they hit home runs and are in first by 6 games and 18 games above .500.


    WOw. Just wow. :fp: You really are just blinded by the pinstripes.

    Not a little bit, dude.

    the stadium could really use bathroom stall doors that go all the way down to the floor. Who can I call to get that project started?

    No HR's = No win.


    1-14. No problems here. Nothing to see. Move along.

    17 games above .500. At least a 5 game lead in the division. And a Yankees fan gloating about a Yankees loss. Fuck off.

    The team that played small ball tonight lost, the team that played AL ball won. And this idiot wants them to not hit home runs.

    Wow. No one's gloating just amazed that with your vast baseball knowledge in relation to anyone else on these boards that you don't see a pattern or problem. But I guess again I'm an idiot and know less about baseball than your sister. :roll: I'll go fuck off now. Awesome statement BTW. :thumbup:

    Small ball? :lol: This team couldn't play small ball if it tried right now. :lol: Fucking team can't even bunt and everyone with the exception of Jeter pulls the ball. Sure Granderson hit a sac fly the other way tonight but that's only becasue he was late on the pitch. :lol: Jeter also leads the team in steals with six I believe. :lol: Small ball. You make me laugh. :lol: I guess Yankee small ball is when they can't win the home run derby. :lol:

    Cool, because to me your not wrong, but i think Cliffy's has a wider perspective than most of us. Which makes me think the truth somewhere in the middle. My hope is the pitching staff gets to a good groove come October! and thats everything!

    Nobody's laughing at their losses. Remember in the Ranger's thread how I kept saying the team leaned too much on Lundquist and scoring was a real problem. Well what happened? Lundquist put a couple bad games together...the team couldn't score and boom...eliminated. That's what I see with this Yankee team. Too much dependance on the HR...couple of games in a row in the playoffs (against the best pitchers) with no HR's and boom...elimination. Just the way I see it and their regualr season numbers seem to indicate that.

    Apologies to everyone else. I am really done getting fired up about this. I'll say my peace and not talk about this subject again.

    The Yankees have the 4th highest batting average in the majors (Edit:I lied about this, it's 6th in the AL, I sorted wrong but they have the23rd most streikeouts so the contact thing still stands) and hit a lot of home runs which mean they hit the ball very hard. Hitting a baseball hard and for a good average is a very good combination, obviously. Even if the home runs decline (they will slightly), because they hit the ball so hard, when they make contact they are more likely to land for a hit. Because they have the 4th highest average in baseball, they are making more contact than other teams. So when they face better pitching in the playoffs, they will very likely hit for a higher average and for more power than the team they are facing regardless if they hit home runs or not. That is a good thing.

    All about getting to the playoffs hot and getting good pitching like BinuralJam said.

    Good, I am glad you have nothing to dispute about this. This is Babe Ruth level baseball knowledge.

    And what's their batting average with runners in scoring position? Oh yeah...that will come back to the mean. That's right. Their statitistics that are horrible will be better but their overall team batting average that is high right now won't resort back to the mean. Only the bad will get good in your little Yankee world right. :lol But your done talking about it right? :lol:
