hollywood deserve me

I haven't decided how i feel about this trade yet... although, i never liked farnsworth in a big game.

JOBA wins, but Baltimore won 2 popping the Yankee balloon...

Angels up next, and that idea scares me just a bit.

ABSOLUTE DOMINATION pt.2

WHAT MORE CAN I SAY?

MANNY IS A REAL FUCKING PROBLEM, BUT NOT FOR THE YANKEES.

Dámaso Marte!!! welcome to yankees universe

&

how about this fucking guy waking up in a huge way

CANO .514 in the last 8 undefeated games!!!

Sunday Prediction: The Yankees can win with Ponson on the mound as long as they score at least 17 runs. It's not impossible... They already got the series but a sweep would be so fucking sweet.

ABSOLUTE DOMINATION

JOBA FUCKING RULES!!!

GIAMBI'S STACHE KEEPS GETTING DARKER!!!

MARIANO IS KING!!!

and did i mention Xavier Nady and Dámaso Marte are on their way!!!

1 down - 2 to go!!! ( and that is 7 in a row)

live at fenway

a delayed start ot live bloggin due to relationhip issues. we apologize for the delay.

7:19 the moustache is looking good. oh snap beckett punches him out. just proving that two world series rings trumps one steroid aided mvp trophy.

7:23 jobs'a no-hitter breaks up rather early and...wait a minute.....that's big papi's music.....high hopes for this at bat.

7:29 pedroia never fails to make me proud, great steal in the wake of a great strikeout by joba

7:30 now comes the long awaited youk-joba reunion, spine chills...not really. you know minus posada, matsui, damon, sheffield. these guys don't scare me. nice pitch by joba...he's on fire! the way he's headed he might get 7 wins this year!

7:39 beckett doesn't look sharp, at all. more and more it seems francona puts ellsbury in left, with coco in center. with manny's contract being a team option and such good fielders already under contract. i don't know, it makes manny's departure seem somewhat of a foregone conclusion.

7:51 oh damon's in the game! we have a duel folks.

8:12 joba is lighting us up, oh and tek nails miguel. 3 hits, yikes!

8:30-something: varitek simply cannot hit all-star pitching anymore aka breaking balls if you want to call that all-star pitching

9:05 (i had a visitor, thus the delay) we still have a duel. it all seems to hinge on that giambi shift, which i hate, especially when runners are on.

9:09 by the way, the home plate umpire seems to be blatantly prefering high strikes, to the sox disadvantage.

9:10 can't wait for the jeter/farve-like fallout, i wish it would start right now. nothing would please me more than five million yankee fans self-abusing themselves over derek's demise.

9:16 !!!!!!!!!and joba gets his comeupence, nails youk? what? doesn't nail youk? i'm confused. seemed to hit youk but it's 3-0...now it's 2-2....and youk strikes out that is a classic what the fuck at bat. joba is surely turning it up a notch. mariano looms in the distance.


9:24 oh no! i mean yea! it's.... it's javier lopez (god, he sucks half the time) oh no. i mean, yea! he gets the one guy he faces out. and thus starts the chess game. a new pitcher in. it's time like these i miss torre, francona and torre could stretch out a "normal" game at least 20 min with pitching substitutions. i'm not sure if girardi gets that yet.

9:30 delcarmen! with the arod strikeout! that's weird because normally arod is SO clutch? i guess even the greatest have their bad days. and....bye bye manny delcarmen, some sort of hangnail injury no doubt. i wasn't joking about the time difference of a normal game and this.


9:37 oki gets giambino averts widespread depression in new england. film @ 11.

9:46 coco...the baserunning pacifist

9:52 don't get too cocky yankman...eeesh ellsbury caught looking.

9:54 fuuuuuuuuuuuuck, pedroia on a squiber to sandman strands two in the 8th, that's the game. i imagine papelbon os due to arrive? nope oki.

10:00 oki looks competent tonight, gets the job done...sweet

10:05 bottom 9th youk reaches 1 out after ortiz fly, lowell up, drew next

10:10 oh and lowell (the unofficial team captain) gets tossed. 2 outs. and jd strikes out in 2 seconds. yanks are back in the mix.

This is going to be a good one!

The Red Sox and The Rays both had a chance to put The Yankees away early, but they failed. Now they are dealing with a 2nd half team that has so much tradition and a million ghosts behind it. This is going to be a good one. to be continued on Friday... (and hopefully bartles can deal with some actual facts and stats before he posts his complete nonsense)

Official Weekend Prediction

1. Joba throws at or over Youklis' bald fucking head at least 2 times.

2. Ponson picks up at least 2 d.u.i's in Boston

3. Yankees SWEEP!!!

obligatory thursday japanese athlete posting

it's a mixed up crazy world we're livin' in.

manny: amigo, can we go to material girl's house after this? i've got lot like a "lucky star" i need to show her, comprende?

arod-icus: your crossing the "borderline" manny.

manny: good one bro, but seriously, big papi told me to ask for him too. hey man, you got any like used condoms you no using anymore.

arod-icus: .......

manny: whatever, ese.

how was your weekend?

Yankees sweep. bosox get swept. A fine weekend. The Red Sox look awful and ready for fourth place in the a.l. east. The Yankees seem primed and ready for a brilliant 2nd half and 27th world championship, get on board...

Manny will be a Yankee in 2009.

i don't like it, not one bit

I had a very bad reaction to the home run derby last night, it felt like Yankee Stadium was being violated and I went to bed sick to my stomach.

struggling for a split

Mussina won his eleventh, which really could have been his 13th or 14th. He really has been THAT good and deserves to be on the all star team. The rest of the team is just a mess, a mixture of old timers and triple A stars of tomorrow. It is incredibly frustrating to follow, and Mariano didn't make it any better on Saturday, but the real problem is that you can't pitch him once a week and expect him to look sharp. So tonight we have a Boston old timer going against another Yankees triple A star of tomorrow. We'll see...

(atleast they found out how to pitch to manny)

i think we know who the real evil is this weekend.

look at him...fucking loser

here we go again...

I could hardly recognize Tropicana Field last night, for several reasons. The first being that there were actually fans in the seats and, secondly, because the team on the field was making the Red Sox look stupid, with the brooms out.
On the other hand, I certainly could recognize The Yankees last night, losing a string of easy games and then scoring all their runs in one fucking inning. You should never be excited by defeating the fucking Rangers.

So here we go again. Fourth of July weekend. Same old Sox vs. Yankees. Except something is very, very wrong. Who's in first place? Who is looking convincing in first place? Not The Sox, not The Yankees. The Fucking Rays, and the new rivalry formula truly is X. Vs. Rays.

For this series I have no expectations. Probably a split. We'll see...
