yes on a great play the indians win... the white sox have sole possession of first again (for at least the next 5 hours or so lol)

Here's another example of why this team is terrible.

Leadoff man gets on for Yankees. DP.

Leadoff man gets on for Rays. Gets caught stealing. Rays still manage to score.
 
They'd need to miss the playoffs. Can you wish that upon them?

Yanks miss the playoffs, or Girardi survives.

but the Yanks have been going lower and lower with him

2009 World series win
2010 ALCS loss
2011 ALDS loss
2012 ?

if the yankees lose the division but get in as a wild card and lose the ALDS again he might be gone.

I think the issue is more that the team is getting too old and injury prone. This is the same thing that started happening in 2001 and really began to show in 2002...

They should just admit they have a ton of money locked up in players who are like 3 WAR players now in a good year! You can't spend 90MM on like 11 WAR and expect to be good. :)

It's funny seeing all these yankee fans having a meltdown. Should be pretty entertaining when the O's take over first. (Still probably not happening.)

see I am torn. On one side I would be happy if the yankees missed the playoffs. On the other side of the teams still in the running I think the White Sox would have the easiest time beating the yankees as the white sox have played really well against the yankees for a while now.

how are we having a meltdown? Yankees had a ten game lead now it's one. I think that's quite normal for fans to start getting mad.....

Are we really having meltdowns? I thought we are all being very realistic.

It's GAF tradition to predict and induce embellished meltdowns. We're a video game forum, after all. The armies of Nintendo and Sony amass along Microsoft's Maginot Line every year at E3 time. :)

I never pictured Microsoft as cowardly. I am just hopeful they will raise the graphics bar so I have a reason to upgrade to 2560x1600.

Mets keep knocking on the door but just can't break through. Not sure why Collins pinch hit Bay against the lefty instead of Hairston.

Torres led off with a double. Appeal at first, he was out. Missed the base. Replays were inconclusive but he mite have touched the corner.
Jesus Christ, Torres has got to be the shittiest baserunner ever.

EDIT - I don't even know why I actually give this team the benefit of the doubt at all.
 
Holy shit Murphy is KILLING the ump. Umps being escorted off by police.

EDIT: Why would you have faith now? That's Jason Motte man, he's a good closer.
 
Damn he got the base. Stupid rookie ump trying to join the fraternity of imcompetent umps. Welcome, go suck off Joe West and Angel Hernandez.
