Hey, Hammy says Seinfeld’s at the game today. Then he transitions right into ripping Joe Pepitone’s hairpiece.

that’s why I miss the All-Star skills competition. I’d love to see Gutierrez, Ankiel, Ichiro and Big Bad Vlad (just to see him hurl a laser with no direction whatsoever) have a outfield throwing competition….

Bah, that throw’s a LITTLE more towards the base & he gets the out.
Despite all of my best intentions, I have not, in fact, grown up to be a debaser.

Nah he was safe…If Gutz gets that throw one more foot towards the base they have him, I think

Quirk of the new platform. They don’t yet have a mechanism for “overflow” game threads, but on the other hand, they have all of the 2007 season games loaded in there, and none of them ever had “new platform” game threads. So to do the overflow, I try to find a game from 2007 that had the same matchup, and I use that game entry to generate a new game thread.

Where does “unproductive AB for Jose Molina” rank on the all-time list of unnecessary statements?

On the plus side, it looks like the rain let up so they’re not going to call it as soon as the Yankees take the lead the game becomes official, right?

only thrown 65 pitches, but from gamecast, doesn’t look like he’s been close in quite a bit.

A few called balls, and a few hard hits to the outfield. That’s the bottom line, I think.

with Abreu, Matsui and Giambi next inning, I really hope we see Lewis or Breslow instead of Byrd for the 6th.

They say if you go to the Indians bullpen late after game, when all the other players have left, and listen quietly you can hear the smack of a ball into a catcher’s mitt. A few have claimed to see a 58 jersey swish away into the inky black night. Most write off these stories as little more than superstition and overactive imaginations, but a select few still believe…

by the way, if anyone reads the Bref fanshot from Ryan, I linked that Fatnando had a better start of a season than Lee in 1981.

I don’t care how many times they say the Yankees are excited about Ohlendorf.
He has never, ever done anything at any level to warrant excitement.
The Yankees know nothing about relief pitching.

He’s never been given a prolonged stint as a reliever in the minors and he has good stuff so I see why there is some excitement.

Meh. I look at his 2006, he’s 23 and has a 3.29 ERA in Double-A—all very good as far as it goes. But he also has just 6.28 K/9, which tells me that his stuff probably won’t translate to the majors, and indeed, it didn’t even translate that well to Triple-A.
Unless he’s a freak case like Carmona - and he is a true freak - I don’t see how he’s supposed to have good stuff with those numbers. Good velocity, maybe, but stuff goes beyond just velocity.
