is duchwhatever realy this good or the yanks just bad tonight?

He is good. They say even better than harden.

He does put a way too much pressure on himself with RISP .

Well, we haven't been good but he is a very good pitcher IMO. Strikes out a ton of guys.

yankees27
04-05-06, 11:32 PM
Im prepared for Torre to get killed again for setting up the lineup this way. I hope Matsui or Giambi gets a hit here for Torre's sake.
Somehow, I doubt cristicism on a message board bothers Torre that much.

Kay, already starts with it. Torre does set himself up for this.

One measly run. Come on Yankees.

MisterNovember
04-05-06, 11:33 PM
About hitting 5th? I don't think so.

And now it's an easy matchup for them... Before you would have to bring in the lefty to face Giambi and then Sheff gets to face a lefty. Or Giambi would face a righty. I just don't understand why you wouldn't make the switch.

Are you familiar with Gary Sheffield??? I can see him bitching about pretty much anything.
Thats the only explanation I can come up with for this lineup. Torre has been a proponent of the LRL lineup for as long as he's been Yankee manager. Why he would mess with it now is a total mystery.

LeapsNbounds
04-05-06, 11:33 PM

he's probably reading this forum right now for material

Yeah, but 5th is no disrespect. It's not like he's moving him to 7th.

Torre's best quality is handling these egos. He should do what's best for the team.

Looks like Joe was going to the well a little too much with J-Wright for a 3rd inning.

Leadoff triple.

MisterNovember
04-05-06, 11:36 PM
While that is completely possible...how then do you explain atleast not breaking up Cano/Damon with Bernie?

Didn't think about that, but maybe because Torre likes the "circular" lineup, and he wouldn't want a black hole like Bernie batting ahead of Damon???

Speaking of which, Damon just scared the sh*t out of me on that last play...hope he's ok

JeffWeaverFan
04-05-06, 11:36 PM
Damon should make that catch.

maybe they'll let us borrow witasick to come in and pour gas on it, for old time's sake.

seriously! the team had been saying we need to get off to good start and torre blows it last night and now this...

i'm not looking forward to anaheim.

who's up matsui, po and bernie? hmm.

I don't see why the score matters, the Yankees are not scoring off Street.

BronxBaumer
04-05-06, 11:42 PM
I don't understand why Torre can't manage his bullpen effectively. It really is a good bullpen if he knew how to use it.

04-05-06, 11:43 PM
well we've got the Angels after this so we can expect another choke job

acidsin
04-05-06, 11:43 PM
Ya know, the only word that comes to mind right now is 'disappointing.' Not because they have lost the last two, but because of the ways that they have lost them

04-05-06, 11:43 PM
I don't understand why Torre can't manage his bullpen effectively. It really is a good bullpen if he knew how to use it.

he's never known how to use a bullpen.

1-2 to start the season. gotta do well in anaheim.

I don't understand why Torre can't manage his bullpen effectively. It really is a good bullpen if he knew how to use it.


I thought about it today, and for all of his talent in the locker room the man is one of if not the worst in game manager considering the embarassment of riches he has at his disposal.

Its not over until its over. We have an overrated closer coming up next inning, and we're still in it at the moment.

We started out 1-2 in 98, so I rally don't think we're screwed. I simply think we have some thigns to work on, and most of it is defensively related. Stop with the damned errors. We've had four errors in the past three games. We'll never make the playoffs playing like that.

Slyde Slick
04-05-06, 11:47 PM
I mean, I'm not like, giving up on the game and such...seen too much from Da Squad to rule them out, not with what we're capable of.

Still, it would be nice to see some more solid defensive play from Jeets and Cano, especially since cats like Figgins are gonna test their arms and leather all weekend...

...no reason to panic though, fellas...we straight...

With two days off tommorow and then on Monday, as well as Dotel due to come back at the start of June, Torre felt yesterday was a great time to give Farnsworth and Sturtze some rest. Today down by 2? Get ready Myers and Farns you're both goin in.

And then Farnsworth after that... If you are going to use those guys, then start the 8th inning with them. The sad thing is that I think that Torre was thinking of just using Wright until either we scored a run so he could bring in Mo or they did so we lose... He got us two good innings, but we're in the 8th inning here.

And for the record, I am much less upset with Torre's bullpen managing with this game than last game. This game at least I can understand what he was thinking - last game I couldn't.

I can't though JWF, I mean for god sakes, the guy had 8 innings in ST. He's gonna pitch half as amany in one game after only 8 innings before this? His arm strength isn't there yet.

And why the ................ is he using farnsworth when we're losing then yesteerday when its tied?

I wasn't going to complain about anything with the bullpen management tonight. Wright was pitching well. No problem with letting him continue....that being said why bring Farnsworth in down by 2, and not leave him in when tied last night?

JeffWeaverFan

Well, I say she's an idiot because I don't think she knows what she's talking about. And I say she's a Red Sox fan because she is. She grew up in Mass. and is an admitted Red Sox fan.

Davios
04-05-06, 11:53 PM
The fact that Torre acts so unbelievably amazed when Steinbrenner calls him out in the papers for these piss poor moves is amazing. If I were owner I would be far more digusted than I am now, and I'm pretty damn disgusted. Just imagine what he must feel like condering the money he flushes down the toilet on relievers who are not properly used.

I wasn't going to complain about anything with the bullpen management tonight. Wright was pitching well. No problem with letting him continue....that being said why bring Farnsworth in down by 2, and not leave him in when tied last night?
Well I have no idea why he wasn't left in yesterday (if you're not going to bring in Mo), but today, we can still win this game if we hold them to 2.

Kay mentioned on the pre-game show that when the media asked Torre about that after the game last night he stressed that Farnsworth would only EVER be a "one-inning pitcher".

And then Farnsworth after that... If you are going to use those guys, then start the 8th inning with them. The sad thing is that I think that Torre was thinking of just using Wright until either we scored a run so he could bring in Mo or they did so we lose... He got us two good innings, but we're in the 8th inning here.

And for the record, I am much less upset with Torre's bullpen managing with this game than last game. This game at least I can understand what he was thinking - last game I couldn't.

I think it was atrocious in both games. How does he lose two tied games in the 8th inning or later with the 10th and 11th pitchers on the roster? All we've seen from the A's in those situations is Duchscherer, Kennedy, and Street. He used Sturtze and Villone in the 15-1 game a situation that SCREAMED for Jaret Wright. He hasn't used Mo at all...and we have an off day tomorrow. Just ridiculous.

She was saying how it was a job and he wouldn't understand. It was completely ridiculous.
