2014 New York Yankees

So, two starts. Better than nothing I suppose.

And of course it's the Red Sox that point it out, hahaha. MOAR YANKS-SAWX

One start and an extra day of rest. Really hard to hurt starting pitchers with suspensions.

OK turns out it ISN'T an automatic 10 in the Major, just the Minors.

Considering the basic impetuousness of this, I wouldn't be surprised if Uncle Bud didn't drop a special kind of hammer on this one. I mean, there's cheating, and then there's cheating in a way that basically gives the finger to the league.

I am guessing he gets the 10 games.

[waroriole]

That was the most obvious placement ever. He should get an extra 10 for being so stupid.

John Farrell basically said in the post game that Pineda forced him to come out by being so blatantly obvious.

Said something like he could use as much rosin as he wants or if he wants to use pine tar put it somewhere discreet.

That's a very odd statement to me. Sounds like he's saying baseball might as well abolish the spitball rule.

Sounds to me like he was saying "if it were a tiny little bit I wouldn't care, a lot of pitchers do that, but you're practically shoving it everyone's face that you're putting a lot of pine tar on the ball, what did you expect me to do about it, let it go?"

(MAY 11th)

The Mets overcame TWO 3-run deficits last night (4-1, and 7-4) to come back to beat the Yankees in the Bronx, 9-7.

NEW YORK METS OOOO.o - 9

NEW YORK YANKEES O - 7

Queens bombers Rally to Beat Yanks

Lovely finish to this one, with a sputtering Kyle Farnsworth on the mound with one out B9, McCann blistered a shot at 1B Duda, who snared, fired to second to Wright on shift who fired back to get McCann. Tex had just gotten aboard on a long single to right that should have been 2B (but crumbling Tex had no legs (er groin) :mwahaha:).

What? I was watching NYY vs NYM while O's were still playing???? :scratchchinhmm:

Carlos Beltran hyper-extended his right elbow working in the indoor batting cage between his at-bats.

MRI results not back yet.

Really shocking a team with so many old players is having issues with injuries.

From the above article, "The way things are going for the Yankees — and, for that matter, for pitchers in general, with Miami’s Jose Fernandez the latest to go down — can elbow surgery for Masahiro Tanaka be far behind?"

We can only hope.....:slytf:

I am sure CoC did not miss this snippet, "There is still time, of course, and while Jacoby Ellsbury and Tanaka have been terrific, Brian McCann has not hit much, Beltran is hurt and the value signings — Kelly Johnson, Brian Roberts, Matt Thornton — have had little impact. And with the age of the roster, other injuries are always lurking." I love the word "lurking"!

Roberts has not been what Cano was.

But, I know of at least 1 walk-off hit this year for the Yankees.

When you see the word degenerative in relation to any body part below the hip, that's not good.
