Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Posada dropped to ninth then asks out of the lineup.
Cashman says he's not injured.
Now they claim he has back stiffness.

Oh and the poor play continues tonight!

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Did Jorge read my earlier post? :r

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Ryan you're psychic. :r

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Lost four in a row...Posada asking out of the lineup...do I sense descension in the ranks?

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Is this a big deal or is the media making it out to be bigger than what it is?

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Today is going to be a big day between Posada, Joe & Cashman. This could easily be cleared up and they move on or it is going to spiral out of control and Posada's career as a Yankee will end ugly.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

I agree...this could be cleared up fast and quick like. Or the Yankees could use this as an excuse to "attempt" to get rid of that $ 11 million contract. I believe that what Posada has done as a Yankee should warrant a quick resolution. But you never know when dealing with Cashman. :2

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Quick resolution maybe...but I don't think past deeds warrants or excuses what he did...9th in the lineup because he deserves to be there, Girardi did what he had to do...:2

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Don't get it twisted Keith...I agree he deserves to bat 9th, he's hitting .165. Even Jorge agreed he deserved to hit 9th. By no means am I agreeing with what he did...he gets paid to play when and where they need him. But you would think that his past performance would mean something to the front office concerning the resolution of this matter.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

I'm looking for a brawl today!
Should really help to get us going.
Last time the Yanks were in Baltimore they hit Martin after he homered twice.
Yesterday they hit the Kid in the head after Cano breaks it open.
If the Yanks are any sort of team they should be out for blood.
Has to be done in the latter innings, can't have CC miss a start.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Benches should have cleared when they hit Cano!
Since a brawl didn't get us going, hopefully the 13 runs they scored will.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

They needed a win like this.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Just so that they can stay close to even with the Red Sox.:D

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Funny phrasing there, Paul, since the Rod Sux are where they've been all season long to date . . . behind the Yanks in the standings. :r

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Nice job Mets.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

How in the hell did you boys let R.A. Dickey (1-5 record with a weak-a$$ knuckler this year) beat you 2-1?? And you let our bullpen shut you down. I sense some serious trouble in the Yankees camp. :2

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

And :2 is about all the opinion of a Met fan is worth. ;)

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Agree :noon

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Knuckleballers always seem to give the Yankees trouble. The only exemption is Aaron Boone vs Tim Wakefield. :r

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Martin & Teixeira both with 2-run HR's tonight. Jeter is now 28 hits away from 3,000. Yankees leading the Mets 4-2.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

My all time fave hit. :noon

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Yankees are now in a tie for 1st place with the Rays.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

If the season ended today the Yanks would win the division by .002 points.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Yankees win big today against the Mets.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Nice to see them put up an 8 spot without a HR!

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

I loved it when A-Rod was up and they were hyping up him being 1 away from tying Lou Gehrig in career Grand Slams all-time and he hits an RBI single on a swinging bunt. :r

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Yankees could not get anything going tonight. Hopefully CC pitches a good game tomorrow. Joe also needs to bench Jorge the rally killer.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Positive thoughts to former Yankee Bill "Moose" Skowron as he battle lung cancer. I got to meet him when I was a kid. He was at a local mall doing an autograph signing. He hit on my grandmother. :r

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Posted lineup for the Yankees tonight.

Derek Jeter DH
Curtis Granderson CF
Mark Teixeira 1B
Alex Rodriguez 3B
Robinson Cano 2B
Russell Martin C
Nick Swisher RF
Brett Gardner LF
Eduardo Nunez SS

CC Sabathia LHP

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Rafael Soriano is off to see Dr. James Andrews. Never a good thing.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Martin with a solo HR in the 2nd. Yankees up 1-0.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Bad inning for CC. 4-1 Jays.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

CC goes 9 innings. Yankees down 4-3 going into the bottom of the 9th. Time for a rally.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

RBI single in the bottom of the 9th with 2 outs by the Grandyman to tie the game!!

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Yankees Win!!!! Walk off single by Teixeira!!!

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Great ending!!

Posada off the bench with the double! :tu

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Great win for the Yankees. CC gets the win. :tu

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

How do you like them Apples

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

CC is the best, not just his pitching, but as a person.
And never gives up.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

This is very sad, imo, he was crucial to how far the
playoffs would go.:sh

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

I disagree Art.
I think his value lied in the regular season.
The ability to shorten games for a suspect pitching staff.
Granted you would like to see that carry over into October, but in the post season you have to go with the hot hand.

Remember 09 when Hughes was a beast out of the pen?
Come playoffs he spit the bit, and it was Marte of all people who came up big.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

I cant go on what happened, i go on his talent.
I would feel a whole hellava lot better if he was healthy
and glad to be in pinstripes.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

They need to beat the sox more. cant stand losing to them

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

I hear ya.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Bronx Bombers were playing today. :tu

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Congrats to Mariano

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Tough loss last night :mad:

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

Good win today. :tu

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

And today as well, wish i had yes here.
Complete game.

Re: New York Yankees 2011
 

I'm impressed by how well Colon has pitched this year, I thought he was going to be a nothing sign but he has really been good so far.
