Agreed, we need to find a way and win this series. String some hits together and lock it down from the mound.

don't look now but the O's lost and the Yanks are due for a degradation. 2 of 3 pitching match-ups look good even for our rag-tag staff.

.500 ball would be great against these two teams on the road. You can't realistically expect them to win either of these series...not with the pitching staff and bullpen as they are.

the rate alvarez and cecil give up the long ball does not bode well for us in this series. as much as i'd love a series win, i just hope we can escape with a game here. you gotta think yanks are thinking sweep here. ultimately, this will be a big time display of where rick is as this is the biggest series we've played this season imo.

i'm sick of seeing Granderson in HR leaders since new Yankee stadium, the carry+dimensions of that place isn't even amusing. it's stupid.

Yah, I dismiss home run totals from Yankee LHBs, too. The league should step in and push that sh it back.

But, the hope is that their LHBs go cold while ours (Rasmus, Lind, K. Johnson) go yard.

It's going to be a massacre this week.

At least we signed Landry Fields.

Especially since it's 3 of 18. 16 games against the Yankees after the ASB. Upside is that through almost 90 games we're undefeated against them. :D
