The Yankee bullpen could be the best in the baseball and they showed it tonight. Nova obviously didn’t have it and was pulled out of the game after 5.1 innings of work. Then came the unsung heroes to the rescue, the clutch Yankee bullpen:
Nova has something Hughes lacks and it is luck. The bullpen saved [...]
Game 3: Rangers 7 Yanks 3
MLB.com Recap:
ARLINGTON — The Robbie Ross Magical Mystery Tour continues and so does the Rangers’ great start. Ross keeps winning games, the Rangers keep winning series and manager Ron Washington said the goal is just to be the best possible team that it can be on that particular night.
The Rangers [...]
Arod finally gave me the opportunity to place his image to begin my post. His 3-run homer in the 5th broke the game open and secured a win over the best team in the American league and in turn, placing the Yanks in a two-way tie for 1st place in the American League East with [...]
Just when you think you seen it all, this happens. To be down 9-0 with two outs in the 6th inning and win the game 15-9 is an almost impossible feat. The Boston fans were sitting pretty and enjoying an easy victory until “The Bombers” came alive! Not to mention, they only scored 1 run [...]
The Red Sox were celebrating the 100th anniversary of the first regular season game at Fenway Park and invited the manager who helped give them their only TWO championships and who of course, they fired. If I were Francona, I would have rejected the invitation. Valentine will never take this team anywhere, bad choice! Yanks Win!

In order to be successful in the Major leagues it is important to win all the series’ that you play but a split in a 4-game series can be very positive in many ways. Of course, winning three-out-of-four or better is more beneficial but splitting a series is acceptable. A split when you are playing [...]
It looked like a slugfest after 3 innings with the Twins ahead and the score at 5-4. Both pitchers looked terrible but managed to settle down and halt both offenses from any more barrages. Two innings after the Twins managed 1 run to make it 6-4. Then came the bullpen and things really became quiet:
Twins [...]
The Yankees split the first two games with the Twins and now have the opportunity to win the series altogether.
Game Two: Yanks 8 Twins 3
MLB Recap:
NEW YORK — Joe Girardi has made lineup changes before that have reaped rewards. Much of his shuffling before Tuesday’s game was done out of necessity, but it still did [...]
The entire Yankees team came out swinging tonight and in when it counted. The take the three game series against the Angels with an 11-5 victory. This one wasn’t a walk in the park but what can you expect when playing against a powerhouse team. The win was important, like any other win is but [...]
Hughes is not panning out and Yankee fans know it well. But one doesn’t need to focus as much to realize that Hughes simply doesn’t have what it takes to be starter. Hughes has become a dilemma and there’s no place to put him in this pitching staff. When will you use him? Middle relief? [...]
The Yankees beat one of their arch rivals, the Angels, to win the 2012 opener. It was a full house in Yankee Stadium and the first pitch featured retired Jorge Posada tossing a baseball to his father as the whole Yankee team huddled around. The Yankee fans at hand cheered on, as all the others, [...]
Who said winning in baseball cannot be ugly? A win is win, of course but they can also come in ugly fashion. That’s how the Yanks won tonight, not very pleasant to see as they squandered opportunities throughout. But the Orioles were even worse, they just couldn’t get out of their own way. Basically, they [...]
This is the kind of victories I love! The Yankees hung in and beat the Orioles 5-4 in another, of what I reference as and call, a “Two Part” game. This my analytical approach towards this particular game. I break it into two games in one. These are the type of games when both teams [...]
