Enjoy it now because it won't last. This was Jaret Wright's last game in a Yankee uniform and I don't think Manny or Loretta's bats will be held down forever.

Wright pitched well, why would that be his last game in a yankees uniform. did he get injured after the game.

edited: didn't look at his stats. he kinda sucked,



I know it wont last, i'm just getting excited for the team, nothing wrong with getting excited for a team.

The Yankees right now are in a "Get 4 walks in a row or don't score runs" mode. As evidenced by their 14 walk/2 run game against Tampa Bay. That's why Halladay wasn't at his best but still didn't allow any runs. Of course, by the time the Yankees snap out of it, he will be back to dominating and it won't matter anyway. He is ridiculously good when healthy.

Aaron Small should be ready by next week, and Wright certainly didn't make the most of his 2 starts. I am not delusional enough to think that Small will go 10-0 again, but if he can go 6 or 7 runs while giving up 4-5 runs each time, it's all you can ask for from a 5th starter.

Dude, it's still April!!!!  Wait until August or Sepember.  If your Jays are still in first place, then we'll talk.

See, I'm not so sure.  I like this Toronto team, especially after seeing them up close and personal a couple times.  I'm still iffy on their defense, but I like their hitting a lot.  I'm liking this team.

The hitting was expected to be pretty good as long as they stayed healthy, but right now you still have some guys hitting way over their heads like Alex Rios. They will have to continue to be solid after that in order to have a shot because their pitching is Roy Halladay and then a prayer.


Title: Randy Sucks Again
Post by: EDGECRUSHER on April 29, 2006, 02:12:37 pm
He is completely missing his targets and his velocity is way down. He usually has great control, but he hit Reed(think it was Reed)twice already.

I don't think he is going to make it out of the 3rd. Now Randy gets booed and he deserves it too. The only reason he isn't being pelted with garbage is because Josh Towers isn't very good today either.

Josh Towers isn't very good today either.

today? he hasn't been good this season. his ERA is over 10. We should send him down to AAA.

Be happy you won this game, next time were not going to roll over and die in the first

compared to Towers, Johnson is pitching like a CY young. Towers need to go down to the minors to learn how to pitch. it's pathetic. Does anyone know if he has any options left. Maine, whats the 4-1-1 (info)

I love two Blue Jays players a lot this year...Vernon Wells and BJ Ryan. And it's just because they're helping most of my winning fantasy teams.

Vernon is roaming the OF for 7 of my 8 fantasy squads that are currently atop their leagues' standings. Thank you, Vernon, for being such a monster. The only other offensive players on at least half of those league leaders are Hanley Ramirez (5), Travis Hafner (5), Chase Utley (4) and Morgan Ensberg (4). Only two pitchers on more than half, Ryan (5) and Derrick Turnbow (4).

Not the Jays, just their pitching staff. You figure if you can score 6 runs in a game you should win. Or at the very least not get killed. Only other time the Yankees scored in every inning was in 1939 against the St. Louis Browns.

Very well, I shall.  Your pitchers sucked ass today!!!  You figure if you can get six runs, you should win easily with solid pitching.  The Yankees bats made the Jays' pitching staff look like a bunch of AA players!!!

Like I said, it's April.  This is your penalty for talking shit too soon.  Talk to me in September.

Raptor - you really need to calm down and understand how long the baseball season is.  Boston was .500 at the all-star break the year that they won the World Series.  They turned it on after the Nomar trade.  Funny things happen in this game, relax and enjoy the ride!
