Yanks (27-23) @ Detroit Tigers (24-27): Strange Days

[Dr. Detfink]

Despite all the injuries, disappointments, and questions...Yanks are only 1.5 games out of first place. 2 games from AL leading Texas Rangers. WHAT IS GOING ON HERE?!?!?!

Well, last night the Yanks bats came alive and battered the Tigers around 9-4. But there's no question when CC is on the mound that the Yanks have more confidence.

But the Tigers are one of those sleeping giant teams. I can see this team erupting in the second half on offense. Hopefully they won't wake up against the Yanks.

Kuroda @ Porcello

Hughes @ Verlander (that's a loss)

Clueless Joe 2.0 strikes again.


First and Second, no outs and Jeter has a 2-0 count and goes for a sac bunt.


What a dumb FC UK. Giving away outs, playing for the tie on the road against a pitcher about to be on the ropes.

[Christophersp10]

Jeter going for another bunt with a runner in scoring position and a 2-0 count



ARE YOU F'ING KIDDING ME? Playing for a tie on the road?

[Dr. Detfink]

Seeing how Cabrera and Fielder are the All-you-can-eat infield...it's not a bad try.

Corey Wade, I LOVE you.

Tomorrow verlander vs Hughes.

[Dr. Detfink]

This bullpen is a mess.

[Dr. Detfink]

Jeter and A-Rod go yard...Yanks get to Verlander early. 5-1...let's home they hold it.

So who predicted the Hughes complete game and easy win against Verlander?

[Dr. Detfink]

Right? I think I like this Seinfeldian opposite is true!

Hughes 5-5.

[TKF]

[Christophersp10]

Hughes start was much more impressive than the Johan * 1 HItter
