    August 13, 2006 - Angels @ Yankees from Yankee Stadium

    Let's get it started (ha), let's get it started in here.

    Time for Chien-Ming Wang to use his ground and pound on the Halos.


    Wang grounds and pounds them, gains the mount or side control, rain down more blows, and get the LAA via very deep submission with an armbar, or if the LAA gives up their back, Wang gets them in a rear-naked choke.

    I checked my ego at the door, left it outside, and I'm ready to play ball.

    I'm counting on CMW to pitch a great game today. Hopefully the yankees will give him some good run support too and give Weaver his first loss.

    I'm also counting on CMW to pitch a great, effective game today.

    And the Yankee offense needs to play solid, effective baseball with well placed, timely hitting for all nine innings.

    Also, the Yankee defense, stays alert and on their toes making effective throws at all times.

    I took the ball in game 2 and I feel confident in handing it over to BB55 for the pivotal game 3.

    Bring it home good sir.

    Hopefully worm killer can help us fight through the rookie curse, give Weaver a pounding, and be facing Kevin Gregg by the fourth inning.




    Ok, realistically, I'm happy with a win no matter how we get it.
    Now that we've clinched, there's only one thing I can say: let's not ................ this up.

    We gave José his first loss of the season now lets give Weaver the same treatment.

    Any idea what the Angels lineup looks like? Is Gurrero DHing again? Is Quinlan starting at first, or is Kendrick?

    The Yankees gotta use their speed and hustle to force the Angels to commit a lot of errors.

    Gotta get good reads off Jared Weaver's delivery on the fly.

    Exactly we have to use what they have been using for so many years against us.

    Also, Torre can not under any circumstances play smallball versus the Angels, use our OBP and slugging to our advantage and dont give away outs.

    Thanks. Is something physically wrong with Vlad, or has his defense just sucked? Does this mean that Curtis Pride is starting in left again? And I guess no Maicer Izturis then, huh?

    Hi Everyone.
    Let's make it a nice ballgame today.
    How's the weather over there?
    Does anyone have a scouting report on Weaver?
    What does he throw? Does he have a low ERA because of small sample size of is he just that good?

    Flyball pitcher, 4-seamer up to 96, good 2-seamer, great slider, deceptive delivery according to Suzyn Waldman. No decisions in last 3 starts (has not pitched great in them).

    I know! I went to the game yesterday and got a suntan from just that. It is pretty hot out unless you are fortunate enough to catch a breeze, but nowhere near as bad as it was during that heat wave about a week or so ago.

    Really? I was at the game yesterday too and I wasn't one bit hot. In fact, the weather was just about perfect.

    Announcers: Wang gives up so few homeruns and so few runs in the 1st inning.

    BOOM, lead off HR for Figgins.

    Error for A-Rod. This game is starting off swimmingly.

    Does anyone remember the last time A-Rod got in front of a ground ball?

    He went from a SS with great range to a 3B with no range.

    Are you f'ing kidding me? Chone Figgins with a homerun off of Wang? That's not supposed to happen.
    Never left the Betances bandwagon.
