The Yankees seem to have an offense again. Building a three-game winning streak, the Yankees beat the Orioles 13-2 tonight. Every Yankees starter reached base, Mark Teixeira and Eduardo Nunez went deep and struggling Jorge Posada and Nick Swisher each had key doubles and reached base a total of six times. CC Sabathia looked like his old self with eight scoreless innings, and the Yankees are coming home feeling much better than when they left.

Thank you baseball and rain gods!
Imagine this Oriole team without buck? They might be in even laster place
Hope the offense keeps rolling against the Mets. I am going to the game tomorrow night and don’t want to hear any cheers from Mets fans.
Good night, all.
Let’s beat on the Muts!
Good night all. I think I’ll have a cookie and a glass of warm milk and go to bed!
Good night night people,,,a game thread with no trolling….very nicely done.
Morales has really good stuff. Knowing the Sox they will fix his mechanics and he will turn into an all star.
Nice win. Let’s keep it going.

For Charleston, Anderson Feliz hits a walk off homer in the 12th inning against Savannah Sand Gnats. He ended the night with a double, triple and homer.
Here’s the final box score.

Good for him. I saw he had the double and triple. Here comes the projected power. I really liked his bat when I saw him in Lakewood. Do you know which side he hit the homer from?

They can’t even fix their own pitchers, but, they’re going to fix somebody elses?
I always liked Okajima if the Sox don’t trade him which they probably will the Yanks should try to sign him if he becomes a free agent. Hopefully he will want to get bak at the Sox like Aceves did with the Yanks.
They fixed Gagne, didn’t they?
Well, didn’t they?

Yankfem, Anderson Feliz is going places.
YankeeFem. I didn’t pay any attention to which side Feliz was hitting from. I wish that MiLB.com would use the instant update Gameday instead of having to wait 10 minutes to update the game. Same with pitch counts and types of pitches.
Morales’ mechanics need a lot of fixing; his control/walk rates are abysmal and he has been downright putrid vs. lefties the past couple of seasons.
The Tampa Yankees have had 2 come from behind wins in their past 2 games. Hopefully they can finally win 3 in a row tomorrow night.

Following some of these games can be excrutiating. I would kill for an milb gameday w/the mlb perks.
ty, how’s Abe looking these days?

Tampa didn’t follow the pattern; they were supposed to go into extras like the Yanks last night and Trenton and the RiverDogs did today. I heard that they have to give back one of the wins.
If a team is trading a hard throwing young left handed pitcher for a 35 year old junk baller that is nothing special…..there are issues somewhere.

lol.
Chokajima got DFA’d. This is a sad day.
Good night, good game, nice and easy just what the doctor ordered

When Bretts mom can’t listen to the games and I am there she has me update her. She sends frantic texts if the thing hasn’t updated after a while. I never like to let her know if he has given up runs. I know today they had an early game so I was updating it at work and I would get nervous if they were still in the top of any inning.
Extras also affect ex-Yankees. The Melkman is 3/5 for Royals and is the winning run on 3rd if Francoeur can get him in.
I’m pretty sure the Red Sox broke Gagne.
He was pitching great until the Sox traded for him.
The Melkman is delivered.
Prufrock, are we going to get rained out in Trenton tomorrow?
Looks like Matsuzaka may be going into the James Andrews Body Repair Shop to have the dents taken out of the fenders. Apparently, something went wrong after somebody stole his gyroball and threw him out of balance and ge crashed.
Yankeefem
The game last night was intense. We were losing then tied it up. Top of the next inning we gave up the go ahead run, in the bottom of that inning we tied it and got the go ahead. Surprisingly we were out by 930. Brett wasn’t very sharp but he only let them score 3 runs in 5 innings and they were able to come back which hasn’t happened much this season. Last time he gave up 3 runs the TY only had 3 hits.
Prufrock
Abe has looked better lately. His avg is still below 200 last I checked but he is looking better at the plate. He is okay I center but he is no Melky Mesa who really knew how to work centerfield at GMS field.
Lately he attempts to bunt the first pitch of every at bat but hasn’t been successful yet.
tyanks, did you see GB7′s posts on Melky Mesa’s catches?
Marshall has been pitching well generally, so he is entitled to not be sharp once in a while. Remind me who took J-Ram’s place?
And no, Chad didn’t send me your email.

The Melkman is delivered.
////
I just watched that too. He’s having a nice season batting lefty & has 11 2B on the season.
///
Hope not on rainout. It can rain after 95 Dellin pitches
. Maybe we can steal the other Melky from Trenton for the Sat/Sun games against the Mets.
Melky just pied Frenchy. LOL.
lol, Melky just got Francoeur with a pie. Melky smiles too much while pie-ing though; he doesn’t have the dead serious look and stealth moves of AJ.

I’ll happily take 95 pitches from Dellin, but I have my doubts he will get the chance with the intermittent thunder storms predicted. Here’s hoping.

WOnder if his shoulder’s still an issue? I’m going to give him a couple years’ rope & see what we have. As for bunting, maybe they’re training him so he can come up here & tutor Brett in the art
. Thanks for the info.

That’s because he’s too lazy to learn the moves.
Oh, wait. It’s Cano that’s lazy. Cabrera is the fat one.
Less than a month until opening day of short season. I am hoping we get Cito, Gumbs, and Mason Williams at SI. I will live there.

I don’t know why Chad isn’t forwarding my emails to you. I have sent him 2 already.
I haven’t seen GBs posts on Melkys catches.
Brett has been good his last 3 outings before this one but 3 runs in 5 innings when he allowed 7 hits and 4 walks to a 1st place team is pretty good. He was just a bit wild.
Scott Allen took over for Ramirez and he hasn’t been much better. If not for his start yesterday the TY would have won 5 in a row but he and Quintana allowed st. Lucie to blow the game out of the water.
The rotation now with Marshall as the # 1 is Marshall, Black/solbach(who pitched today) Heredia, Romanski and Allen.
I keep wondering about both Aceves and Beckett both having their backs miraculously doing so well. Aceves couldn’t even pitch last year, no surgery other than his clavicle, and he is fine? Beckett too.
If they got epidurals that could come back on them big time, as it only masks pain, and doesn’t do anything to cure the back. That could lead to more damage that can’t be covered up by a shot.

Gagne was an early adopter of the stem cell therapy, but they gave him chowdah instead.

All over those 3, especially curious about Cito live. Fortunately for him, I think Sanchez has rebounded enough to avoid the demotion.

Thanks for that info. I hope Heredia can stay healthy and get it back. Do you know what his velocity is these days?

Compared to Swisher, they’re both grumpy.
Maybe then inject some smile cells into Posada.

I don’t know what his velocity is but I could probably find out tomorrow. It would probably be a lot easier to know what they were throwing if they had pitch speed displayed but that don’t which is wierd because with the Yankees doing ST at GMS field its something you would think they’d have.
Ramirez has lost the strike zone (always his strong point) and when he has to throw a cripple strike, they hammer it.

Just wonder what Heredia is sitting and topping out at, but only if it is easy to find out.
Trenton has no velo or pitch counts either. Last Banuelos game I sat next to an A’s scout who shared all his velo’s with me. Funny thing was before the game, he and these other scouts were talking about how they had never read and some refused to ever read Moneyball. It was pretty hilarious.

Yes, I am very concerned. Anyone give a reason on radio broadcasts or do you have any theories? When I saw him last year with Charleston at Lakewood he had impeccable FB command and a filthy changeup. He rarely walked anyone. I know he was trying to implement a curve but couldn’t really spin it, so they changed his breaking ball to a slider/slurve, which he was still having trouble with but it was OK. However, here he is again in A- and he should be able to repeat his delivery there and get batters out. Yet he is walking guys in A-. What the heck is going on? I wonder if it is physical, mechanical or psychological???
I know with Brackman they were making him throw the change in any count and that resulted in walks while he was at Charleston. Could they be doing likewise with J-Ram and the slurve?
Yankeefem
It won’t be a problem. I can just sit behind the guys with the radar guns for a while.
YankeeFem, the only thing that I can think of with Ramirez is that he’s still gurting or, at least tentative to cut it loose. He’s still really young and I’m guessing fear has something to do with it. He tried to compensate for the pain and not, it’s turned into a flaw. If ever there was a pitcher that needs t go to a pitching doctor, he’s it. Maybe send him to Tommy Phelps at Trenton for a couple of weeks and get him straightened out. Not to pitch in games, just to get his mechanics straightened out. Not totally on the Billy Conners/Contreres bandwagon.
Sux signed Millwood to a minor league deal huh, You knew that was coming.
I want to thank the inept O’s for showing up.
Can’t wait to play the birds again, but the equipment guy will have to order in a heavy shipment of body armour for our hitters. Buck is ridiculous…
the sox signing millwood after a spring of watching him throw 82 is a complete indictment of the upper levels of their system. they don’t have a single aaa pitcher better than kevin millwood? no nova, noesi, phelps up there.
for all of the anti-cashman chatter on this board, he’s shown that he can build a better farm system than the boy genius in boston
