If can falter against Scherzer, I feel good about its ability to falter in friendly Comerica Park to this year's MVP.
I said it'd be a miracle if we weren't down 0-2 heading back to CoPa, well just call him "Miracle" Max Scherzer. -- TheRock ~ Death By Misadventure, Not Suicide "Would've liked to see that." - Ayuyu on my boner ... Copied to Clipboard!

oh well GG and a great game 3 match. Should be pretty sick. Your BP is pretty worn down, I think it's more imperative Verlander is stellar rather than good. Valverde was really worked as was Benoit.

The Yankees can run Verlander out in the 7th even if he's got his best stuff though, to be honest.
Still, we've got Coke and Albequerque to make up for the lack of Benoit and Valverde, somewhat. It'll be a tough close, that's for sure, but today's win was more important than tomorrow's bullpen! -- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://img.imgcake.com/Icon/Punkjpguh.jpg ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah, not having Benoit and Valverde for game 3 is not good. Still have Phil Coke, though, he's been pretty solid since moving back into the bullpen.
But please, no more non-save Valverde. My heart can't take it! -- TheRock ~ Death By Misadventure, Not Suicide "Would've liked to see that." - Ayuyu on my boner ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's not even non save Valverde, you heard what they said. Lack of postseason experience and a choke. If that lead is any smaller, he chokes it.

No, there really is a difference between save and non-save Valverde.
Gotta look at the numbers, but it's like his ERA is below 1 in save situations and over 5 in non-save situations. -- TheRock ~ Death By Misadventure, Not Suicide "Would've liked to see that." - Ayuyu on my boner ... Copied to Clipboard!

Here we go:

the rays are exciting because they actually have preposterous levels of farm talent and beat good teams to make playoff berths the diamondbacks if they advance will just spread their cheeks for cliff lee and roy halladay to examine who THE F wants to see that except soro? -- *~The Swiftuation~* ...

From: TheRock1525 | Posted: 10/2/2011 7:50:32 PM | #475 all i'm alluding to is that he shouldn't be dancing if he ain't the best. Because the best shows composure and class.

I'm probably more numb to playoff losses than most at this point. It's the life of a Philly sports fan. We make the playoffs in pretty much every sport every year, and then lose. At least in baseball I can take solace in the fact that it's pretty much a crap shoot and doesn't say anything about who the better team was. The other sports are way more agonizing to lose playoffs in.

i think for every single time any fan, be they mets, phillies, whomever says the yanks buy a WS...
look at the phillies this year. It's so 100% evident they're gonna win it. And ti was bought really. The dump of nearly their whole farm for halladay. their splurge on lee. another send off for oswalt. Hamels is the only home grown talent that's gonna win the post season for them, the other guys aren't factors yet. So yeah, baseball is changing fast. -- *~Swift~* ... Copied to Clipboard!

Rad Link 5 10/02/11 6:33:00 PM #512: |
Howard, Utley and Ruiz are homegrown, along with most of the bullpen (including Madson). Not saying we didn't "buy it," though.
And I've never complained about the Yankees and their salary (that's still almost twice as big as our own ridiculous salary). There's no cap, so if you've got the money, use it. It's not the Yankees' fault they make so much more money than any other team. What are they supposed to do, sit on it?
