Moyer and this bum kendrick and we get shut down.. Honestly this is becomming a problem. we should have been in first place with at least a game or two lead... losing this series is inexcuseable especially looking at the pitching we faced..

A-rod may not be productive at all this year, and tex is playing like a friggin bum.. really those two guys are dragging down the offense. if not for cano, jeter and swisher, and now granderson, we would be dead in the water.. How long can we continue this way?


tex is a joke, he wags his bat too much and is really susceptible to the chageup and has basically become a pull hitter, he needs to swallow his pride and go to long to get help...if he cant do that, bench him

arod seems hurt to me



tex should be forced to go to long. He is the teams hitting coach for christ sakes.. it should not be an option..

A-rod seems hurt and honestly it may linger all year.. we just can't have his bat this silent.. plus we miss his power....

i thought i read a quote somewhere where they said that they just cant go to the player, the player has to come to them recently

whatever the case, tex needs to get his head out of his a** and go get help

Look, every one in the Yanks line up save Cano and Swisher haven't been playing up to their baseball card. Tex feeds off A-rod's production. That doesn't excuse a line up that was beaten by a 100 year old pitcher and a guy who is not winning a CY Young any time soon.

It's baffling after the Yanks shelled Halladay.

Yankees are tied for first without 2 of their best hitters playing to their abilities and 2 of their starters missing a month of the season. They are fortunate to be where they are, lets not complain and act as if they should be scoring 10+ runs every game just because the pitcher isn't very good. Teams go through slumps (e.g. Phillies the last month).

Yes it's frustrating, but to expect them to win every single series is just unrealistic.
