OT: MLB Discussion Thread, Part II: Yanks pay Ellsbury

[Hunter Gathers]

I love getting Black in this deal. So glad those reports were accurate.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Nova with the complete game shutout!!

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Yankees needs to win out it feels like...

we will be 3 out of wc after tonight with a whole month to go.

 

[SA16]

The Yankees are currently given a 10.4% chance to make the playoffs.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

I like those odds.

 

[JCrusher*]

Another solid outing from Wheeler. Kid gets better every start. Even without Harvey the mets have a ton of pitching here and in the system. Just need to get some bats this offseason

Sad to see Ike get injured I was hoping for a monster September from him I feel if we give up on him its gonna be a big mistake.

 

[AlternateSideParking]

It's amazing how a dick season from Phil Hughes is what stands between the Yankees being a playoff team and the yankees being on the bubble.

Schedule-wise, Yankees have a ton going for them. Not only does Tampa have the murder schedule, but the Yankees close out the season with three at home against the rays then three on the road with the scrub Astros.

Sabathia and Kuroda needs to wake the hell up. But the Yankees are very much alive.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Rays finish the season with..

4 vs Texas

4 vs Baltimore

3 @ Yankees

3 @ Jays.


We finish the season with.. 3 @ jays, 3 vs SF, 3 vs TB, 3 @ Houston.


We just have to stay close...

 

[Hunter Gathers]

Mets are going to call up Vic Black.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

color me shocked, but Andy Pettitte has looked vintage lately.

Im not a Yankee fan but i wouldnt overlook those teams. I understand that besides the rays those teams are out of the playoff hunt but losing teams love to play spoiler.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Thanks a ****ing lot Girardi.

 

[Made Dan]

Blew it today. Better not drop a game to the clown sox

 

[darko]

If Angels can get the job done against Rays tonight Yanks will be 1.5 back.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Yankees showed a ton of guts coming back tonight.

 

[LaffyTaffyNYR]

Hughes to pen, Huff to rotation

 

[17futurecap]

Got to my first game of the year, so pumped I got to see Mo. Great win!

 

[AlternateSideParking]

2.5 games back of the Wild Card.

The Yankees need to go 16-8 to win 90 games. That's amazing when you consider they were left for dead a month ago.

 

[RangerBlues]

If Soriano continues this pace of production and they Yankees somehow make the playoffs he gets my vote for AL MVP.

Cabrera's got it locked up.

 

[RangerBlues]

All I can say is that the White Sox might be the worst MLB team I have seen in a long time.
Robin Ventura looks like he wants to kill with every fielding blunder.

 

[*Bob Richards*]

Cabrera's got it locked up.

Now if he can just get rid of that pesky Chris Davis, we might see some serious history too.
