Wang seems an inning ahead of Weaver when at the same pitch count. Wang may last 7, but Weaver's gotta be outta here in the 6th. We can't see Shields & K-Rod following right after him.

It underscores how putrid the Boston pitching staff is, though. Boston will beat up on bad bullpens for a lot of wins, but against teams that can pitch a little in the latter innings they are not a good team.
I know I "shouldn't" be feeling these things, but they simply do not scare me in the least. There's not a pitcher on that club that bothers me. Maybe Papelbon I wouldn't have total confidence in beating....but other than that I don't think there's a pitcher you would expect to handle the Yankee lineup, and their pen it quite bad.

They basically have two decent pitchers on their staff, they have a huge underbelly which the Yankees will exploit, the only question is if the Yankees pitchers can do a decent job against them.

Good chance our lead will be down to .5 after Monday night. We have to hope the Tigers can go in there and take 2 of 3 (please dont bend over Detroit) and we sweep the pathetic O's at home.
If we can go into Fenway up 2.5....I'll feel real good.

Even if Villone does his job we will be down 5 runs against the Angels pen with only 4 innnings to make up for it.
Unless Ron does more than his job and then its a 4 run deficit.

Randy Johnson better step up and deliver tommorrow. We need vintage RJ.....we cannot lose 3 of 4 to this team at home.
And he needs to be good because Lackey is good and we never hit him anyways.He'll go 3 IP, 5 ER and anyone who dares say he had a bad start will get blasted by the RJ apologists on how he had "just one bad start"

We better start praying Oakland wins the West. God forbid we have to play the Angels in the 1st round again.....
This has been my point all along. You have to avoid playing this team at all costs. Or, at worst, play them in a 7 game series. There are 3 ways to avoid them:
1. The A's win the West
2. The White Sox win the Wild Card, thus giving the Yanks Chicago in the DS.
3. Have Detroit beat the Angels in the DS thus eliminating them altogether.

OK! Big inning for the Yankees coming up!
LET'S GO YANKEES!!!
:clap: :clap: :clap:
Villone, Proctor, Farnsworth, Rivera....if they are kept somewhat fresh, it's the best four relievers together in the majors.
Let's hope for Dotel to come back and be strong by the end of the season, making our bullpen really formidable.

Wang's been absolutely incredible for the Yankees this year. Don't worry about him. He had a bad outing.. this is like his worst outing in two months.
Its just that, he had a great chance in his last 2 starts, to prove that he is truely for real.
And then considering his next start is @ Fenway (where he usually gets slapped), it is worrrying
Doing his job would've been holding them to one. He did more :)

Our only chance is to draw some walks and hope for that one big hit.
Let's hope for Dotel to come back and be strong by the end of the season, making our bullpen really formidable.
If Dotel can come back and be even a shell of his old self, it depeens the pen considerably. Heck, I'd settle for him being a solid middle reliever. Doesn't need to be "Dotel".

Even if Villone does his job we will be down 5 runs against the Angels pen with only 4 innnings to make up for it.
Unless Ron does more than his job and then its a 4 run deficit.
In that case, I find it more important for our *HITTERS* to do their job and be patient. Our pitchers aren't going to extend their pitcher's pitch count. Our hitters must stop getting these 1- or 2-pitch outs.
Make him go to the full count. Even if you lose, the team can still win.

Always a team like this. The Rangers were the previous club that had the Yanks- in the late 80's the Yanks could NEVER beat Texas...and it continued through the bad years and into the beginning of the run as well until they faced them in the plaoffs.

Not a good day today for Wang. Worst performance of the seaons along with the start against the Detroit Tigers. I hope he can regain his control soon. Because when he has control of the ball, we see what he can do as was evident in two recent starts against Tampa and Toronto.
Couple this poor start with the fact that the Dominicans are having a parade on 6th avenue here in Manhattan. Nonstop raucous since 11 am today. Hopefully it'll end soon.

I don't think we could get a fair enough deal for him to make it worthwhile. There's a better chance that he'll return to his MVP form at any given moment than of us acquiring a frontline starter or 5-tool player, which is what we should acquire at the very least for a player of A-Rod's quality in his prime, salary nonwithstanding.

I've said this before....I would be suprised if he was traded if he were to veto it. Because it is 100% going to become public that he vetoes a trade....and if he thinks NY is rough on him now, he'd become public enemy #1 in the city. No...he'd have to accept a deal, assuming it was a decent team/city he was dealt to.

Probably, but again, the frustrations have its foundation in the season in general.
When a player has a zeason OPS of almost 100 points lower than his career OPS and everyone else on the team has a higher season OPS than their career average its natrual which player's mistakes gets blown up the most.

This is true and if this was the only terrible day A-Rod has had recently he would be given a mulligan. But given his propensity to just have absolutely horrendous all-around games at the most inopportune times, it's become quite frustrating. Fair or not, Alex has to be held to a higher standard than guys such as Cano, Cabrera, even Posada and Damon.

His last 2 starts were huge and he failed. He HAS to pitch well @ Fenway, next week.
