I just have had a bad feeling about this year all year (from even before Mo went down). [231] Precisely. Thank goodness I just got a wonderful message about how well these two cats I rescued are doing - the timing of that was perfect. Still these Yankees. I have not been having any fun watching them. Virtually the only thing I enjoyed about today's game was admiring the skill with which Mathis blocked pitches. Like Al, I thought he did a really nice job. [229] Thanks for the buck up.

I am just beyond frustrated with his outing. Am I off-base in finding losing this series devastating? Our Ace on the mound, shit on the mound for them, home game, team just playing out of the string and you fucking shit the bed. [225] Above all else, though, CC let us down horribly in this game.

OK, CC labored and was not entirely effective. So then he goes with the "long man" for only two batters (getting neither of them out). Then the games really began.

I also think a lot of bad things may happen by the time we have those two back, I don't know what they'll be when they get back - this is a lot of weeks in a row of pitiful, pitiful baseball. Btw, do others agree that Jones' "almost great catch" earlier was a ball that a good RF catches without much trouble?

Seriously. What the hell are we hoping to accomplish with Joba Chamberlain? If this was any other right handed middle reliever, he wouldn't have nearly this long of a leash. Cut him. Another thing.

Cut him.
