    And that is why you don't use your closer in a tie game on the road. This one is on Girardi.

    I dont agree. I think you use your closer in the biggest spot. Needed to get out of those innings before they needed to close it out.

    Why not exhaust all your best set up guys first? I get bringing in Robertson if you only have mediocre or call up pitchers available.

    Does the 11th matter if Warren walks the park in the 10? Better to use your players than leave them sitting on the bench. It's not like he had Nelson or Stanton waiting out there.
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    Good point. Maybe I'm just beyond frustrated and burnt out on this season. A bunch of spoiled fucking fans we are the last 20 years. Hahaha

    Nelson and Stanton, enough said. You ain't beating the yanks by the 6th inning, game over. Those were the days.

    Yeah. Thats why when anyone says Torre is better than Girardi I chuckle. How hard was it to manage those teams? Ummm. We're up by 2 runs after 6. What do I do now? Hmmmmmmmm......

    Fell asleep before that debacle, thankfully.

    Think I am heading up next Sunday to see Jeter one last time.

    Wow I just noticed that Drew is even hitting worse on the Yanks.
    He hit .176 with the Sox and is hitting .135 with the Yanks.
    What happened to this guy.

    So they may have Tanaka in a real game soon.. Not sure what to think of that.
    Pick up my debut novel here on amazon: Jonny Bails Floatin (in paperback) (also available on Kindle for $2.99)
