Robertson can get a K too.
But probably mostly because he was planning to get Robertson and Melancon some low-pressure mopup work before this mess, and Robertson was ready already whereas Bruney wouldn't have been.

This isn't really low pressure anymore. A homer -- which is more than a possibility with Pena -- makes it 7-6.

Oh yeah, I want to see that G.I. Joe movie. What the heck was that?
Nice, D-Rob!
I agree witht he poster who said Melancon could and should've been in at the start of this inning. His total downside was pretty much exactly what Alba gave us. You don't get too many 6 run leads. Maybe it was just a fear of the top of the order or something?
It's an unfortunate set of circumstances with noone at fault that has led to his layoff, and I understand that. But he should pitch over Alba with a 6 run lead. Now we're not likely to see him for another night, unless the offense puts a few more on the board here.
ZYanksRule
07-27-09, 09:09 PM

You should care -- if he does it against Tampa, he'll probably do the same thing against the Yankees. He needs to ask for help in those situations.

Ok, if Melancon doesn't get in here then they should really just send him down.

I hope that fan that gave him #200 gets a photo op, at least.

Girardi is doing a great job. A wonderful job... putting in Alba instead of Melancon... then having to get Mo up because Alba has no business being here...

Kay's a millionaire and he's saying he never gets where he wants to go?
I want to puke.
You're dreaming if you think he's a milllionaire. He makes nowhere near that in a year, probably somewhere around 300 to 400K. Still a good hunk of change, but not a milllionaire. Why else do you think he works 2 jobs for an average of at least 12 hours a day?
YESSIR!

Kay can even make an issue out of a fan throwing the ball back on the field.
I hope that fan that gave him #200 gets a photo op, at least.According to the YES guys, it was a random Rays fan who just threw it back on the field as an "enemy" home run.

I agree that Melancon should have been the one moreso for the fact that he could use some work, but its not a given that he wouldn't have crapped the bed just like Alba.

1. I could pitch with a 6 run lead
2. He had to use him. Either he performs, or he's gone--now we know
3. We have the best record in the AL. Not by accident. And ARod was gone.:)

The designation "millionaire" refers to the amount of money/assets you possess, not your yearly salary.

Melancon is like BigFoot the Yeti and the Lochness monster all rolled into 1. There is rumors of his existence, but no real proof

Well whoever said 3 runs wouldn't be enough they were right lol

Even if he did, that's the point of waiting for a big lead. We expect him to fail the first time out now, given the incredibly long layoff.
Can we PLEASE put him in now? This is ridiculous.

I might have been exaggerating but I think it's safe to say that he has more than 1 million worth of assets. I'm sure he doesn't have to worry about being able to pay any bills. I normally don't mind him but that comment was nauseating.
The fan will probably get some free stuff regardless, I would hope Damon would hang around to meet the guy and thank him. The guy who caught Adam Dunn's 300th threw it back and they found him after the game, and gave him a TON of stuff.

Sigh.
Great, just great.
11-4.
I'm still annoyed at giving up runs in the ninth.

Back of bullpen pitching like back of bullpen.
Well, eleven to FOUR. Better tell Mo not to put his jammies on just yet.
