That’d be C.C. Sabathia and David Price, fat and skinny, but both large men.

I wouldn't shit you, you're my favorite turd!
To the point of "fat and skinny":
A source of security for four years, Sabathia has become a mystery this season — mostly a disappointment with ongoing hope that he’ll turn it around before the end of the year.
“He’s had a tough year,” Joe Girardi said. “There’s a lot of things you could say. Could it be this? Could it be that? I think that’s just speculation. The bottom line is, his fastball has cut more and his changeup has cut more, and that’s what’s led to the problems.”
Is it a minor mechanical glitch?
“That could be part of it,” Girardi said. “That always plays a role in pitching. Whenever you don’t locate a baseball, it’s usually because your mechanics are off, or if the baseball does something it’s not supposed to do, your mechanics are off.”
Is it because of the considerable workload in his career?
“I think that’s something that people might attribute it to,” Girardi said. “We all kind of have our ideas what it is, but I think that might attribute to it.”
Is it because he’s too skinny this year?
“I don’t think so,” Girardi said. “It’s not like he’s 210 pounds. He’s not Mr. Ramirez that we used to have here. He’s still a big man. He’s still strong. I think he’s in tremendous shape.”
Yes, that was an Edwar Ramirez reference. Didn’t see that coming today.
From over at LoHud ...
That's very interesting.
I wonder if Joe just thinks it looks like his pitches cut more, or if they actually checked the Pitch F/X data.
Bright side: hitting the ball hard.
Nice throw A-*tod.
Now that's what I call a good At Bat. Vern, take note.
That, on the other hand...
Fuck Damn Shit. God continues to piss down Austin Romine's barrel.
Grrrrrrrrrr.
[7] Again. About 9 inches in the last 3 games, and we all would *all* be rid of our great Stewart Nightmare.
This ain't on A.R., it's on luck ... or, if you would prefer, a cruel, uncaring, merciless God ...
[9] When you say it ain't on AR, you must mean Austin Romine. Because our other "AR", well, there is no way he escapes blame for this (or anything).
Fat/skinny cc off to a nice start. Coney thinks this is the best his fastball has been all year. Will be interesting to see his pitchfx graph after the game as his location *seems* much better.
[10] we should definitely blame Lou's inaneness on AR.
Man, Sweet Lou really sounds likes he's losing feet off his fastball ... as we listen ...
Looks like old fashioned CC
Hey, Vern!
Promising start to this inning.
Oh, god. Joe G has Trop Disease.
NO FUCKING BUNTS.
Grandy bringing???
Meh.
Well, fuck.
Load of Bollocks, CG ...
Geez, A*rod has lost at least 2 steps.
LET'S GO AUSTIN!
This is exciting.
Nice at bat from Romine here.
So far ...
I call that highly acceptable.
Excellent work, Young Austin.
Grittsy n Gutsy at bat. Best of his young MLB career so far?
I'll take that. Good job Austine.
[23] You're about 90 seconds behind again, huh?
Nice.
[27] Yup. MLB through my tv just gets lagged and lagged ...
Oh yeah.
And now good base running by Austin.
Weren't pretty, BUT IT COUNTS!!!
Dammit, I predicted a hit from Eduardo.
Like his fat old self.
Nice, CC.
Have I ever mentioned how much I hate that this team can't get Sam Fuld out?
shitdamnfuck
Aw fuck!
Modamnit!
Disappointing. Again.
This game turned fast, huh?
Another backbreaking rally started because the Yankees are completely incapable of getting the awful Sam Fuld out.
Oh Nunny.
Stop the shitstorm please, CC
Finally
Nice Curtisss
Blergh
Crap.
Man this is turning into a bummer but I have faith they can pull out a win!
Shitfuckpisshell.
Why is "that'd" not an acceptable contraction? That's a bunch o' shit.
Got to say that TB has some D.
Let's go asswipes
[51] you make me to laughing!
Here's where I have the clicker handy to avoid Rodney's little show
our old friend "wormburner" "tiger" "CMW" wang is pitched for the blow jays tonight and sucked shit against the 'stros...
and we're back to our season being doomed to shit...
goddamn motherfucking SHIT!!!
shitty shit fuck shit.
