I agree 100%. A-Rod looks terrible and who cares if you hurt his feelings? He won't be a Yankee next year anyway...

[greenformula92]

A-rod is killing us. Just put the ball in play damn't. this series should be over if you look at all the wasted opurtunities in game 2.

I wish. But how are they going to pull that off?

[JW]

Ugh where was this guy when the damn Phillies needed him in the postseason. I still don't like him.

JW :D

I'm changing my name to unstable RAUL gable!

Arod will be down at 5, with Tex & Cano taking the 3 & 4 spots.
Granderson's lucky to be at the 8 spot the way he's been doing.


Good for Ibanez; That's a feat. I hate that everyone is talking about Arod still and trying to stir up drama instead of focusing on Ibanez's accomplishment.

[greenformula92]

I can't believe Ibanez isn't in the lineup. I would give Granderson the night off with how bad he has been at the plate

defense matters

[Mike]

Yeah. I would never sit granderson

[BonzoHansen]

plus he has 43 homers this year

[BonzoHansen]

huh, 2nd & 3rd, 1 out, a-rod ks. shocking. you could bat him 9 and the game will find him.

[88WS-6]

Yup, all too true, and of course he gets hit for in the 13th by Chavez. All A-rod needed was a fly ball in that spot which lately Chavez or Ibanez have been doing.

A-rod did look better earlier in the game with a walk and a single, I'll give him that, but Cano and Tex need to wake up too...

[Jersey Mike]

The whole team does. Whether they advance tonight or not, they're not going to be getting #28 batting as they are.

[BonzoHansen]

No A-Rod in the lineup tonight

[greenformula92]

No A-Rod in the lineup tonight

Finally

[greenformula92]

Let's go Yanks!!

[Jersey Mike]

Me [Screaming]: "WHY WOULD YOU SWINGGGG AT THAT!!!!?!!!"

[Mike]

Bench granderson they said.

[Jersey Mike]

You know what's funny?
I was listening to the Michael K show on ESPN Radio today while driving home. I won today's Ultimate Sports Bucket List contest (They release a 3 word phrase, one word at a time, throughout the course of the show) and won a $100 ESPN.Com gift card & $200 gift card to GoViva.com... The 3 word phrase that they released over the course of the show, and that won me today's challenge was, "Granderson Should Sit."


I couldn't help but crack an embarrassed smile when he hit that solo homer a few minutes ago.

[BonzoHansen]

You never sit defense with 43 home runs

[BonzoHansen]

Are you kidding me?

[JW]

This is getting ridiculous!

JW :D

[BonzoHansen]

Why pinch run for granderson if you're not going to steal 3rd with less than two outs? Now you have no bat in cf.

Edit: ichiro on 1st no outs. No stolen base, no bunts. He's still at 1st at the end of the inning. Argh

Edit 2: will swisher ever not suck when the heat is on?

Great, now they are carrying jeter off the field.

Edit 3: Jeter fractures ankle in loss, out for postseason

Yeah its gonna be tough without Jeter. Why pinch run for Granderson period unless hes hurt? Granderson can run pretty good. Ichiro should have been going either first or senond pitch. Put the preasure on the pitcher and defense. Swisher will always suck when the heat is on, hes not Scott Brocious.

Think I got it all covered for you lol

Oh yeah Joe Torre > Joe Girardi

Girardi: Loved as a player, Makes me :banghead: as a manager

[BonzoHansen]

2 bad calls last night took them out of rallies and now a terrible call allows a tiger rally to continue. Yikes

[88WS-6]

I don't think I can watch the rest of these games...

[Jersey Mike]

Stop the bleeding.

I heard a repulsive stat today while driving to work: Granderson, Arod & Cano have a combined .112 average in the post-season so far.

Add Swisher into the mix and they're a whopping 12-38.

[BonzoHansen]

What a total failure. I've never seen an entire team just stop hitting

[Jersey Mike]

Aaaaaand, let the conspiracy theories begin.
