I expect Matt Harvey to pitch his best game of the year today. Only hope C.C. can come close to matching him and the Yanks squeeze out a “W”.

Never mind the late afternoon spring light:

Let’s Go Yank-ees!

Let's see, Shane Greene got lit up, the Tigers, the erstwhile, best team in baseball have lost four straight, the Yanks are blooming like spring flowers and the Hal is not too cheap to put a good team on the field. Surely we will need some new story lines for next week.

Go down quickly, Indians.

3 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 3:08 pm

Good. Only missed the first two pitches.

4 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 3:26 pm

I'm not liking this CC start.

5 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 3:29 pm

Good recovery

6 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 3:43 pm

Nice snag, Didi!

7 RIYank   ~  Apr 25, 2015 3:54 pm

Steal here? (Third inning, Brett on first with two out.)

I wouldn't.

[7] I general, I'm not a fan of "stand there and hope we string together three consecutive two out hits against Matt Harvey."

9 RIYank   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:01 pm

Whew.
Like Ellsbury in the field, for sure.

10 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:01 pm

Nice catch, me.

11 Mattpat11   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:01 pm

That was one of them there scary fly balls.

12 RIYank   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:02 pm

[8] Yes, I think I might remember you mentioning that!

I'm not a fan of CS. I like base runners when we hit our homers.

13 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:03 pm

Crud

14 Mattpat11   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:04 pm

Ack.

15 RIYank   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:04 pm

Damn.

(Too bad Murphy didn't get caught stealing before that triple.)

16 Mattpat11   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:05 pm

[12] Planning to hit homers against Matt Harvey may not be the best strategy either.

17 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:06 pm

Goddamn 2 out runs. Fuck!

18 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:08 pm

Dammit!

19 RIYank   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:08 pm

I just hate giving up outs. It's the worst thing a team can do against a good pitcher.

Speaking of which, this doesn't seem to be CC's night for getting people out.

20 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:08 pm

Sweet. Back to the Isles game.

21 Mattpat11   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:08 pm

Crud

22 Mattpat11   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:20 pm

[19] I think you really need to take into account who the pitcher is. Station to station baseball and wait for a homerun seems like a foolish way to combat a guy that really doesn't give up homers (or baserunners, really, but that's neither here nor there).

Its like when we used to face Curt Schilling or David Wells and take the first two pitches of every at bat. A gameplan that relies on the pitcher doing something out of character just doesn't make sense to me.

23 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:20 pm

Even the outs have been loud.

24 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:33 pm

Yeesh.

25 Ara Just Fair   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:34 pm

Quite the expensive 5th starter.

26 Mattpat11   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:36 pm

These games happen. Just win tomorrow.

27 Greg G   ~  Apr 25, 2015 4:41 pm

I'm glad CC is finally out of there.

He is a great guy but he is looking awful now with diminished velocity and doesn't have control to get away with the lack of gas.

I hope he figures it out but he looks like a BP pitcher right now.

28 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 5:03 pm

Teix!

29 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 5:43 pm

Harvey out for the ninth.

30 rbj   ~  Apr 25, 2015 5:54 pm

just tip your cap to Harvey and lace 'em up tomorrow.
