5/15 vs...them

Chen sitting around 92...that's good.

Chen sitting around 92...that's good.

Definitely. His fastball was overpowering versus the Rangers, and if he can keep that going, he's going to be very good.

[Grt 2BA FL Gator]

Chen is looking legit! Great start!

[Don Quixote]

Great inning for Chen. Making 'em look foolish.

[crissfan172]

Watching Chen pitch just makes me smile. Bedard-esque location on his fastballs.

Oh, you want to take your sweet ole time getting in and out of the batters box do ya Cano? Well don't mind me, here's three pitches, you're out.

I want to share an exchange I just had with my wife over the course of the first two batters. Let me set the stage. Shot of Chen getting the ball from Tolleson to start the game, cheering in the background.

Mrs AO : "Is that Chen's cheering section that comes to every game?"

AO: "They are probably cheering for Jeter"

Mrs AO: "**** Jeter."

Jeter gets out on two pitches. Then they show Swisher step into the box.

Mrs AO : "This guy is a big douche too. This team is full of douches!"

Swisher lines out to Hardy.

Mrs AO : "That's right douche, go F yourself."

This is why I love her.

Did Bordick say 350 lbs.?

I love that they want Chen to be the stopper after only 2 losses in a row. It's refreshing for 2 losses in a row to not be expected.

Me too, Criss. I also love the fact that Chen himself happens to be the guy that needs to be our stopper in his 2 consecutive starts (he was the stopper last time when we desperately needed a win against the Rangers to stop the bleeding and the anxiety).

Oh, you want to take your sweet ole time getting in and out of the batters box do ya Cano? Well don't mind me, here's three pitches, you're out.

**** you, Robinson Cano.

Game thread rules, right ???

"This team is full of douches"

Couldn't be more correct.
