Rivera if he will ever pitch again: voice cracking, "I don't know."

[Mr. Enigma]

At age 42, he can forget coming back this season. He can't go out this way.

 

[JambiBum]

Mo

 

[Malo]

Feels bad man

 

[Pollux]

Damn...hate to see such a great player's career end like that.

 

[sf2fanatic]

Well it was a great 5 yrs having MO in my keeper team. Even paying tons of money to keep him...

So who's the closer now?

Soriano?

 

[rekameohs]

I hope that's not how his career ends.

now someone is just fucking trolling, right?

According to the MLB.com front page, Mo has a torn ACL and may not pitch again this year. I'd love to hear some scenarios in which he could conceivably pitch again between now and September (since we all know there won't be any October ball in Yankeeland this year).

Maybe some kind of magical brace on his plant leg combined with some fucking Bondo, perhaps?

Dude is out the year. Let's not kid ourselves.

As a speaker of British English, 'shagging fly balls' has always sounded like a bad idea.

Those scenarios involve suspicious packages from Brian McNamee and Ryan Braun's herpe medication.

Steroids can make your body great, but they can't heal a turn ligament any faster, or can they?

Shocking. Like his cousin in his swimming pool.

 

[BigJonsson]

Jays are 14-6 if you don't include the Orioles =/

 

[jman2050]

Welp, David Robertson, step right up

 

[talisayNon]

lol mo retire so yankees can fire cashman and hire minaya

 

[ConradCervantes]

Welp, David Robertson, step right up

He was in contention for the Cy Young award last season if I'm not mistaken.

 

[Y2Kev]

Guys, when is Assfaceman going to be held accountable for Texieira contract? HMMM?

 

[h3ro]

This is pretty much the worst thing ever.

 

[mYm|17|]

wow just read about Mo

sorry yankee fans

 

[yankeehater]

When he blew the World Series to Luis Gonzalez.

I am not sure if you are being serious but if you are picking best bad Mo moment I would think blowing the save against the Red Sox which allowed them to come back from down 0-3 would be much worse.

 

[Square Triangle]

I really hope Mo's career doesn't end like this.

I keep laughing at A-Rod's reaction though.

 

[jakncoke]

Something I just found funny. Alvarez has a higher batting average than Pujols now.. and more homeruns and rbis.. :me

 

[cuevas. PhD.]

C'MON PEAVY STOP THE BLEEDING, with yours!

The man is on fire! finally bro

 

[jakncoke]

Won't last , but like last years team. Fun while it lasted eh

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

wow my team in MLB gaf Fantasy Rejects is being destroyed by injuries. Ellsbury, Longoria, Gardner, now Mo!!

 

[Parch]

I can see Mariano hanging up the spikes now. He probably was planning it anyway.

Great career. Best cutter in the history of the game.

 

[eznark]

Yankees should probably trade for KRod now.

 

[yankeehater]

Cano for Bastardo.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

Dodgers have signed Bobby Abreu.

 

[storybook77]

Hoping the Bravos can turn it around against the ageless wonder that is Jamie Moyer tonight.

EDIT: That's not tonight. That's what I get for half-listening to the broadcast.

 

[ToxicAdam]

Jason Kipnis is quietly becoming a star. He posted an 841 OPS last year in 36 games. Now has an 883 OPS in the first 23. Not bad for a 2nd baseman.

 

[eznark]

Doug Melvin is a fucking idiot. Why look into Derek Lee? Why call up Brooks Conrad? Just fucking move ARam to first and call up Tyler Green. Problem solved. Good lord.

You can have our Tyler Greene.

Moscoso should provide an even better opportunity to turn it around. I mean if the Mets can get 6 runs off of him . . .

Conrad was hitting .400 in AAA. After seeing all the clutch, late-game hits he had with the Braves in 2010, he's worth a shot.

He was kind of garbage in 2011, but I don't think he was ever going to escape the shadow of that game while wearing a Braves uniform.

Besides, what if Ramirez doesn't want to move to 1B?

I was there live for that game and I don't think I'll get it out of my memory anytime soon.

I was there too. Two of the people we were there with started pulling out their cell phones when Kimbrel had Sanchez at two strikes. I told them they were asking for trouble.

I left this forum last night after the Knicks game, having punched a wall in frustration because of that bitter loss.

I found out about what happened to the greatest closer of all time literally 30 mins ago, and I just have nothing left to give. My girlfriend took care not to tell me before today, because she knew I was going to flip out.

I don't know if I can watch sports right now, man...everything sucks. What are we going to do without GOD closing games? :*(

 

[BFIB]

This week has truly sucked donkey balls. Mo out for the year, not a Yankees fan, but the man is clutch. Junior Seau's suicide, and now MCA's death.

Fuck this week, seriously.

EDIT: Forgot Stan Musial's wife also passed. That means The Man to my left might not have long left himself.

 

[Mr. Enigma]

They say celebrity deaths comes in trios. Who's next?

 

[Little Green Yoda]

I keep laughing at A-Rod's reaction though.

Same. MLB-GAF has conditioned me to laugh at A-rod's expressions.

 

[Sanjuro]

Hey, you guys want to see Kevin Millar sing Tessie? Here is the lin...no, just no. Not going to do that to anybody.

Pics or it didn't happen.

The Yankees will be fine, but I feel like I've been deprived of the excitement of seeing him pitch his last game (hopefully to close out the WS).

 

[Mr. Enigma]

As it stands right now, his save against the Orioles on April 30 may be the last game Rivera ever pitches.

Cashman just announced Robertson is the new closer.
