    If there is a god, the Yankees will walk off joba

    That would be perfect.
    Why boo him though? I don't get that

    I was going to ask what kind of reaction he got. At last he was acknowledged. I don't think they did anything for Hughes if i recall.
    Yeah, I think Hughes was mostly indifferent with possibly a few scattered boos. I dont get that.
    You should see the hate he gets on Twitter. I mean he wins 18 and 16 games in 2 of his 3 full seasons as a starter. Both times going about 80 to 90Iinnings over from the previous year. Helped the team make the playoffs in 09. And he had a few injuries his first 3 years. Last year was a bad year and things didn't go his way a lot of the times. But I believe that was just an aberration.

    I'm thinking the Yankees have to go something like 35-14 these last 49 games to make the playoffs.

    That's a 115 win pace. I don't think any of the teams that are right there for the 2nd wild card are all that good. I think that 2nd wild card is Toronto or the Yanks.

    I always liked him. Yankee stadium was a bad fit for him.

    Yea I keep forgetting about the 2nd wildcard. But going on that run will make me feel better.

    In a way I'm glad Mattingly didn't play in this era. With the spoiled fans we have now. He wouldn't be as beloved.

    Capauno! Gotta give cashman a ton of credit. He has patched a rotation toe years in a row and the bullpen is all homegrown and fucking awesome!!
