    It definitely exposed their weaknesses...and im not just saying this as a fan, this slump cant last forever!

    I keep seeing in the boxscores K, K, K in the Granderson column...drop the bum! ;) or get him to bunt or practice some slap hitting to the opposite filed?


    Granderson tries to pull everything. Very frustrating to watch. I understand he has power but I think he's batting .233 or something. You're right. Just take the ball the other way and run.

    Its ridiculous. I think he has over 150 K's. I wonder what team leads the league in K's batting?

    I hate to see what this guy looks like in a few years, no way the Yankees should extend him, pick up the option and let him walk after next season.

    when did this thread turn into such a circle jerk?

    i went from living in NYC and having a 25 game season seat package, to moving to chicago, going to one or two yankee games a year (when they visit US cellular), only watching their games when they are on ESPN (not home enough to buy the MLB package). i always turned to this thread for some good information on the team from cliffy, igotid, x-man, and of course neily's shit talking about opposing teams. big lurker in this thread this season because there is too much shit talking and fighting amongst yankee fans. it's pathetic.

    i think we've all been around and following the yankees long enough to live through the miserable late 80's and early 90's teams. to call this team a joke, hopeless, miserable, shitty is very....... short sighted. very average since the all star break but even still, this year's squad can still realistically win 90+ games and then we will see who is the most deserving in the league when the playoffs roll around.

    a yankee fan in this thread could take notes from the Broadway Blueshirts Thread where the common enemy is the rival teams and PhantomPain and 81 ( :) )

    will be back in the bronx on 9/21 to see the yanks take on oakland. FIRED UP!

    That leg injurt from last week. Looks like he tweeked it pretty good this time running to first base. I HOPE he's out just for precaution.

    Just saw the Jeter play. Heard on Sportscenter he's likely to play tomorrow.

    Also, Cody Ross is a douche bag.

    Jeter is going to play, just a tough time of year to have him with a nagging injury. Everyone's banged up right now though.

    Gasp, what a game. If they lost that, I don't know what I would have done. Up 5-1 with Ellsbury being the only decent hitter in the lineup. That would have been brutal.

    Granderson might screw this up but X-Man gave me this stat the other day and I thought I'd post it here. The last time the Yankees had a winning season without a 100 RBI guy was 1979. I found that pretty wild. Granderson has a pretty good chance at getting there though.

    1 more hit to tie Willie Mays for Jeter. Not that he isn't already in elite company but Willie Mays....fuck. That's incredible.

    Hell of a start from Phelps. Has to be his best as a Yankee.

    Freddy seems to have made his last start for the Yankees. All in all, the Yanks got more out of him these past two years than I would have expected. He ate up some innings, especially last year.

    A look at the rotation here on out.

    I'd have to imagine they will skip Hughes and go with CC if they have to play in the Wild Card game.
