ho hum!

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 February 2012 15:57 (thirteen years ago)

how can you be bored of another 8 months of A-Rod abuse by sports' most entitled goombah fans?

783K img on the first post of a thread that will be updated year round? that will be great on peoples phones. :-/

no, not much traffic when the fanbase is so bored of excellence.

also as David Lynch said, "Don't read my thread on your fucking phone."

no entitled goombahs in the mets fanbase, thats for sure

You oughta be a little more thickskinned rooting for the Team of the One Percent!

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 February 2012 17:57 (thirteen years ago)

uh the "entitled" part comes from the acknowledged mindset that every season is a failure w/out the Series trophy. Yup sure, very Metslike, a team whose history by comparison is the Stations of the Cross.

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 February 2012 17:58 (thirteen years ago)

btw they're reportedly considering Ibanez, Godzilla, or Damon, and not for Old Timers Day.

Literal Facepalms (Dr Morbius), Tuesday, 7 February 2012 18:49 (thirteen years ago)

Maybe we just combine the yankees/mets thred this year and balkanize this discussion? <---I am 95% serious abt this btw

I've been working my way through The Bronx Is Burning--two more episodes to go. Quite a mess. I sure would love to have those two Yankees-Royals series on DVD, though.

@Ken_Rosenthal
Scouts yesterday had #Yankees' Pineda at 88-91 - "and there was some effort to get to 91," one said. Pineda averaged 94.7 last year. #MLB

@Ken_Rosenthal
Re: Previous tweet on Pineda. Yes it's early. But scouts were taken aback, asking each other if readings were accurate. #Yankees #MLB

If it's March 6 and you have to put forth the slightest bit of effort to hit 91 (when your average is 95), you are obviously toast.

Andy K, Tuesday, 6 March 2012 15:04 (thirteen years ago)

If the ball isn't just shooting out of his hand by the end of the week, they better send him to Dr. Andrews.

omar little, Saturday, 17 March 2012 21:39 (thirteen years ago)

Maybe his family realized that he's annoying around the house and wanted him back in baseball.

Garcia does not care either way (sorta):

“I don’t really care,” Garcia said, when asked about Pettitte’s return. “That’s their decision. I’m here to pitch and that’s what I want to do.”

When asked if Pettitte’s addition was good for the team, Garcia threw his hands up, seemingly exasperated by the turn of events.

“I don’t know man,” said Garcia, who like Hughes a day before, gave a lukewarm reaction. “Ask the people. I don’t know. I guess …You play with the Yankees, nothing surprises you.”

ahhhhhahahahahaha, whadda maroon.

Chamberlain had surgery on Thursday night at St. Joseph's Hospital, and is expected to remain in the hospital for several days for the injury, which resulted in an open flesh wound around the ankle. Manager Joe Girardi was at the hospital early Friday morning.

Is this a "broken bone sticking through the skin" situation? AAAAAAAAHHHAAAhahahahahaha

are you using that BP Prospectus odds visualizer? such a great tool. does 0.00% mean infinitesimally small chances below 0.01% or mathematically out of it? thought you might be know the answer.

sanskrit, Tuesday, 4 September 2012 21:15 (twelve years ago)

I suspect that until a team is eliminated, it's an infinitesimal figure above zero.

three months pass...

TOKYO -- Ichiro Suzuki is looking forward to starting the 2013 baseball season the way he ended last season: as a member of the New York Yankees.

The Yankees and Suzuki finalized a $13 million, two-year contract in December that kept the 10-time All-Star in the Bronx after he was obtained in a trade with Seattle last July.

"Signing with the Yankees has given me a new sense of determination," the 39-year-old outfielder said Tuesday after a workout in Kobe. "This is a unique team. A team that can have a player like Alex Rodriguez as a pinch hitter is special, and to be part of that is exciting."
