What's wrong with the Yankees

Recommended Posts

Guest Vern Gagne

Swept by the Bluejays at New York. 7 straight home losses. The bullpen besides Rivera has been horrible. The Starting pitching looks like its starting to show its age. I still think the Yankees will make the postseason, but are the legit contenders?

Just your normal slump...All teams for the most part go through that...

Oh I think they'll get their act together. I'm just curious if they have what it takes to win the World Series.

I hope Steinbrenner loses it and fires Torre and just watch the Yankees crumble. Probably won't happen but it sure would be fun to watch.

Actually when if you went back from 11 games after the sweep (count back from the Jays sweep) the Yankees are 1-10 in that stretch.

*cackles with glee*

 

Karma's finally coming back around. I don't think the Yankees have the pitching or the character guys to turn it around.

I guess $160 million just doesn't go as far as it used to.

 

Woth both the Jays and Expos are on fire right now, I'm having a good time as a baseball fan.

When you pay for elderly players like Contreras (32 MY ASS) it bites you in the ass.

Should make tomorrow's game interesting. ESPN is banking on Clemens getting 300 tomorrow...I hope he doesn't.

Why do you hope Clemens doesn't hit 300 ? After all he's done, he

deserves it.

 

Normal slump, we all go through it. They'll get it together, though.

 

We're still a little banged up ( Jeter just returned, Williams injured )

 

Oh, I must agree with Kingpk. That Jose Contreras deal is working out, and although Matsui has done some, i'm not sold YET.

Whatever Clemens is a jackass and I'm so proud of my A's over the years who have always given Clemens a tough time especially when Dave Stewart was pitching.

 

Stewart > Clemens :P

Let's see:

 

I hate the Yankees.

 

I hate Roger Clemens.

 

I hate everything Roger Clemens stands for.

I don't hate Clemens. He was right on one thing: Dan Duquette was a horrid GM who let go both Clemens and Vaughn (when he was still good) for nothing.

Well, wanting to play for the Yankees is one thing.

Damn him for wanting to play for a successful team. Damn him! DAMN HIS SOUL TO HELL!

I don't hate everything about Clemens. Signing with the Jays counteracts some of his demanding a trade to New York, but I just don't like the way he carries himself.

I'd say for someone of his talent and stature, he carries himself well.

 

Now, someone like Pedro on the other hand...

He's really the Bradshaw of the Major leagues. When did Clemens turn into a bad mop up reliever.

You mean he carries himself well by whining that the Jays weren't good enough and demanding to be traded?

 

Or how about throwing at Piazza's head and then ducking out of starting a game at Shea because he knew he'd be a target. He also only started one game at Fenway in 2 years as a Jay and didn't start a game at SkyDome as a Yankee until a year or so after he left. He's a whiny pussy, plain and simple.

Do what you gotta do, sez I.

That's my main problem with him. If that never happened, I never would have had to listen to Piazza WHINE AND WHINE AND WHINE AND WHINE about it.

Doesn't bother me like it does you, I guess.

It cracks me up that last month sportswriters were wondering whether the Yankees were the best team ever.

When you signs players for all that money, it usually doesn't work out in the long run. Examples would be Orioles 94-98, Boston every year, Yanks early 90's, Met's late 80's etc. That is all from recent memory. I hope Yankee fans enjoy losing; they have bums like Giambi for at least 7 years.

I'm laughing my ass off with every passing SportsCenter, watching the Yankees lose every day. It's good fun to watch the Anti-Christ get pimp-slapped on a daily basis. I could get used to this...

What I find really funny is if the Yankees lose this game, they have only half as many wins as they would loses for this month.

 

That's pretty bad really. Oh well, at least the Jays will be able to probably steal second place from them.

And maybe the Orioles!

 

Burn baby burn! All the way down to 4th place!
