You fools, it's Jayson Nix. Get it right or he'll tear your ACL.

YA, JINX'S ON

That's even worse!

 

[Brinbe]

Morrow whirling a hell of a gem.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

What the fuck was Mariano Rivera doing running down fly balls in the outfield? Did the Yankees hire Tom Thibedau?

 

[lucius]

I actually hope Mo sticks with retiring this year even though he didn't say it most signs were pointing that way. The Yankees already got way more out of him then they ever should have, yeah it is not the best way to leave but the guy has nothing else left to prove.

Bigger problem Cano has looked terrible at the plate this year maybe worse then Pujols, it's all payback for giving up on Montero!

he has always, ALWAYS, always shagged fly balls in the outfield. always. always. always.

..................this season is over, it's time to rebuild, at least Jeter is going out in style so far. salt the earth and burn everything. let's start anew.

 

[Malo]

This season fucking sucks.

 

[BigJonsson]

Damn, I jinxed Morrow

 

[Fenix]

Not just Mo shags flies, pretty much every reliever does it all the time.

 

[Sanjuro]

I still find it amazing this happened a mere couple hours after I traded virtual Mariano to the Red Sox.

There should be code in all baseball games to not allow that to happen

now that the Yanks are down maybe Jack Z can rip them off again. League for Campos.

 

[Branduil]

It doesn't make any sense, but somehow I feel like Andy Pettitte's shameful lies caused the Mariano injury.

Most recent Yankees FB update asks "What's your fondest memory of Mo?"

So they sound pretty optimistic!

We'll throw in Mason Williams as well if they put in Figgins.

Fuck it.

When he blew the World Series to Luis Gonzalez.

 

[Sanjuro]

Fuck. This means Andy is going to stretch his career as a future closer. Ugh.

 

[RBH]

:lol

 

[Jangocube]

Damn, sucks about Rivera. Always amazed me with his ability to locate and dominate with just two pitches.

Sorry for your loss Yankee fans.

 

[jakncoke]

Pittsburgh relievers kept piling up the strikeouts - the 17 Ks were the most by Pittsburgh in a nine-inning game since 1900, the team said in citing research by the Elias Sports Bureau.

wow

also what the fuck has gotten in Alvarez

 

[weekend_warrior]

Yanks and Sox, sitting in the AL East Cellar.

 

[ZeroRay]

Interesting times.

Hope Mo comes back.

 

[Brinbe]

Good W and a quick, efficient gem from Morrow. No lost sleep tonight!

 

[Fenix]

FUUUUCK YEAH MORROW.

That was basically Halladay.

9IP, 102p 75k/27b, 3H, 0R, 0BB, 8K

That ball would have trickled back to the mound if he wasn't on steroids.

Maybe he's not a bust after all!

When Dave Roberts...and then when Bill Mueller...standing ovation at Fenway in 2005.

I liked '97 better.

:lol

How did '96 and '99 treat you?

[Kave_Man]

Good stuff by Morrow. To bed!

 

[Dominican Power]

MARIANO....NO!!!!

 

[Judderman]

Just saw the news. Fuck.

oh im sure he is, every dog has it's self a hot streak. Would love to be wrong though.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Yankees should have never said anything and offered Rivera to the Mariners for Montero.

 

[Sharp]

Damn, Mariano... what a shitty way to end a career.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Did Jirardi really blame the surface at Kaufman Stadium, or is that just a twitter rumor?

I'm shocked ESPN hasn't gotten on that, even if its just a rumor. Its always someone else's fault when something goes wrong w/ the Yankees.

Why was he out catching fly balls anyway?

He's always shagged BP fly balls since forever.

Not that I saw, but they might not have shown that part of the interview on YES. He said it was a freak accident. Unless you're talking about the fact that he said 'the dirt gave way a little bit'

 

[RBH]

MARINO....NO!!!!

Well that's not very nice!

I predicted this as well. I'm in Nostradamus mode today, not sure if want.

 

[RobotHaus]

Well don't you know, it's that time again. In order to prevent myself from killing myself based on how the Blues are doing, I have to distract myself by saying how poorly Albert Pujols is doing!

Total Home Runs: Zero. How many more players have move than him as of Midnight of May 4th? 257. Anyone new? Just one: Starlin Castro.

How about his AVG? .202 in 104 at bats. 161 players have a better batting average than Pujols this season. His RBI count remains at 5, making him tied for 212th best with 36 other players.

Interesting fact of the night: The Rays currently hold the best Home record in baseball with a 12-1 record.

 

[oatmeal]

No way he ends his career on that. He'll come back, even if only for a game.

His arm is still in great shape.

Let's be honest, he'll pitch until he's 60.

Also, what's going on in the AL East? The Sox have always had shit luck with injuries (last three years), but now the Rays have Longo out, and the Yanks get Pineda and Rivera?

Odd.

 

[Dominican Power]

Catching flyballs.

 

[Dominican Power]

Well that's not very nice!

 

[ToxicAdam]

I think he just stated matter-of-factly that Rivera's foot hit the dirt on the track and he slid, which caused his knee to buckle.

 

[McNei1y]

I'd like to see Mo come back but I don't see it happening. It's going to be a long healing process.

 

[BFIB]

I could see Mo coming back, depending on how his rehab goes. He's a class act though, shame if his career ended this way.
