Jones OK after rolling his left ankle

Posted by: Chad Jennings - Posted in Misc on Jun 20, 2011 Print This Post Print This Post | Email This Post Email This Post

Andruw Jones said he’s OK after rolling his left ankle in the third inning.

On a ground ball to third base, Jones rolled his ankle during his swing. He took it easy going to first base — which let the Reds turn a double play — but Jones said he’s rolled the ankle a lot, so after the initial concern, he was able to tell Joe Girardi that he was fine. That’s why he stayed in the game.

“Right when I first moved, I just kind of take it easy,” Jones said. ”Just make sure everything is OK.”

    Didn’t I tell you not to worry about Phil.
    ______
    MTU, I liked that he was not only keeping his velocity up and showing good FB command, (He really kept the FB ball down in the zone), but that he also was always ahead and throwing that tighter (vs. the loopier) CB which got lots of swings and misses. He only got hit at the beginning and at the very end on the changeup. However, Hughes was feeling so good at 61 pitches that when he was being removed he argued to continue to stay in and pitch. A great sign.

    Ghostwriter,

    First of all, I’m not remotely thin-skinned. And second of all, who exactly did I criticize on this blog? Is Joe Girardi part of this blog? Does criticizing Joe Girardi automatically mean that one deserves criticism?

    Also, please feel free to explain to me how my writing is at all long-winded. It’s hilarious that you’d suggest that you didn’t take the time to read my post… yet criticized me for it because it’s verbose.

    You’re a legitimate douche, Message Board King.

    Flores has a 1.45 ERA and. WHIP of .975 for Scranton. How is that “not doing well”

  4. MTU June 20th, 2011 at 10:51 pm

    YF-

    Thanks for the report. I’m glad you enjoyed the show.

    I hope Hughes reduces the use of that cutter,simplifies his approach, and goes with what got him to the dance in the 1st place.

    For me that means a lively FB spotted to any quadrant, that CB you spoke of, and an evolving CU.

    I think he will be a weapon in 2nd half after he shakes the rust off and gets his legs under him again.

    :)

    MTU….This is a volatile subject on a very volatile evening for some unclear reason……Club’s doing well and we have brawls all over the place

  6. LGY June 20th, 2011 at 10:53 pm

    Andruw Jones rolled his ankle like Posada hurt his back.

  7. yankeefeminista June 20th, 2011 at 10:55 pm

    MTU, I too expect him to have a strong second half. I am hoping he does his 3rd rehab start at Trenton vs. the Fisher Cats (Toronto AA good hitting farm team who are fighting it out with Trenton for first place.) That would be a good team to face over 90+ pitches. On Friday, I think he is supposed to go around 75+.

  8. MTU June 20th, 2011 at 10:57 pm

    Pat M.-

    ?

    What can I say.

    Nova shined tonite. That’s what I choose to focus on. Others can focus on what they wish.

    So much so that in the AM I’m giving him a tribute.

    He earned it.

  9. GreenBeret7 June 20th, 2011 at 10:58 pm

    Those 10 hits and 2 walks against mostly left handers facing Flores is a little troublesome, don’t you think? he’s ok if he comes in with nobody on base. They have Wordekemper facing lefties as much.

  10. GreenBeret7 June 20th, 2011 at 10:59 pm

    YankeeFem, is there a radio station up there that broadcasts the SI games? MiLB isn’t carrying them this year.

  11. Bo knows June 20th, 2011 at 10:59 pm

    I must be one of the few that really enjoys Nova pitching. The kid is a rook, can dial it up to 95 has four pitches if you count the two fastballs. Throws nice and easy, rocking chair style, before you know it, the game’s over. This is a dream rookie pitcher, on pace for 15 wins. Last year when I compared him favorably to Hughes I got my head handed to me. I still say Nova has a better arsenal than Hughes. You want to talk about developing pitchers, you’re seeing it right now, that’s what it looks like. Love the job Rothschild is doing.

  12. G. Love June 20th, 2011 at 11:00 pm

    It’s a great win, although the 9th inning bothered me. I hate to see us push Mo too far with the pen depleted.

    The shame about Logan is the minute this team gives up on him he’ll go to an NL team and be lights out. He has the tools to be a great lefty reliever, but he’s not putting it together this year. I wonder how far the patience goes with him.

    I’m actually excited to watch Gordon pitch another game. Just from a pure storytelling point, he’s a fun guy to watch and root for. It’d be awesome to see him pitch well and somehow get a big hit tomorrow night.

    As for tonight, Nova was brilliant. He’s got 7 wins way before the ASB. You can’t ask for more than this from a young starter still figuring it out. I hope his confidence keeps building and he gets to that point where he’s automatic in his mechanics/delivery. If that happens, he’s a great pitcher for this rotation and a good way the Yankees can save money and spend in other areas. If guys like Nova and Montero pan out, it gives the Yankees such an advantage because the millions normally spent on those positions can be used other places.

    GB, not sure about Staten Island radio, but I would doubt I could pull it in where I am located. I cannot even pull in Trenton radio, but luckily that is online. If I find any live streams of SI radio I will let you know.

  17. GreenBeret7 June 20th, 2011 at 11:02 pm

    i said earlier this year that as long as NYYs get around 12 wins each of the pitchers from the back end of the rotation and Burnett is what he was in 2009, the pitching will be fine. They are well above that pace, even with a mix and match rotation.

  18. LGY June 20th, 2011 at 11:03 pm

    Girardi doesn’t trust Logan vs lefties anyway. He is basically a mop up man now and is bordering on being a wasted roster spot.

    It really does suck he has now options left. He should def be in AAA right now. But I guess you have to leave him out there and hope he rediscovers the fastball he had last year when he is pitching once a week.

  19. Rich in NJ June 20th, 2011 at 11:03 pm

    Ayala isn’t good and Logan stinks despite Girardi’s public pronouncements to the contrary.

    Noesi needs to be third in the bullpen pecking order.

  20. LGY June 20th, 2011 at 11:04 pm

    Burnett is what he was in 2009, the pitching will be fine

  28. GreenBeret7 June 20th, 2011 at 11:07 pm

    burnett has given them all they need. If the team had scored 2 runs in the games that he allowed 1 run in 7 innings+ in, he’s 9-3. His ERA is exactly what it was in 2009. He’s had 2 bad games….as has Sabtathia. not comparing one to the other, just stating a fact.

  29. Jerkface June 20th, 2011 at 11:09 pm

    His ERA is exactly what it was in 2009.

    But the run scoring environment is much weaker as evidenced by his ERA+

  30. Rich in NJ June 20th, 2011 at 11:09 pm

    Burnett is their 4th starter. If you view him that way, he’s OK.

  31. GreenBeret7 June 20th, 2011 at 11:09 pm

    YankeeFem, I need to look closer. I skimmed over it yesterday looking for the game and didn’t see it. Brooklyn doesn’t carry their games, either.

  32. GreenBeret7 June 20th, 2011 at 11:11 pm

    Whatever you say, Little Ricky.

  33. LGY June 20th, 2011 at 11:12 pm

    People need to realize how much scoring is down when evaluating pitchers.

  34. Daniel in Toronto June 20th, 2011 at 11:13 pm

    Burnett’s ERA+ is 101. Which means that he’s been a league average pitcher. He was far better in 2009. Then again, he was far worse in 2010. It’s still absurd how much he is being paid.

  35. Rich in NJ June 20th, 2011 at 11:14 pm

    Burnett is a career .500 pitcher who was in the right place at the right time. He had a very good year in his walk year and was rewarded by the pitching starved Yankees (at that time) with the absurd contract he has.

    A very lucky man I’d say.

  46. Bo knows June 20th, 2011 at 11:19 pm

    Girardi is doing a hell of a job for all you bashers. He’s got his top three setup men hurt as in Soriano, Joba and Feliciano so it’s a patchwork BP. Swisher, Posada and Jeter were into the non perform phase for much of the season, yet he hasn’t panicked. Boston is on a great run and the Yankees are keeping pace. The clubhouse with all the egos, is quiet and in NY that’s a blessing. Defends his players, keeps problems in house, doesn’t unload on his players in the press. In other words has done a professional job. Probably this year is Joe’s best year managing. That’s my take on the situation.

  47. Niblick June 20th, 2011 at 11:20 pm

    OK. It’s just weird, because the Scranton website has a roster that lists several guys on the DL (Brewer, Maxwell), and Vazquez isn’t even listed.

    I don’t mind the people bashing Girardi so much (they are entitled to their opinions), but I just find it a waste of time if they don’t suggest a better solution. No one is perfect, and JG has the team in a good spot for a second half run in spite of all that you mentioned.

  52. LGY June 20th, 2011 at 11:25 pm

    Girardi is a better manager with a patchwork bullpen because he doesn’t get obsessed with formulas and god forbid making a veteran like Soriano uncomfortable.

    You got it backwards, he needs to buy me dinner and then I can say it to his face. I will gladly take pizza or whatever else he imagines I eat in my mother’s basement.

    Scoring in the AL East is higher this year over last year, except for tampa. It’s about .15 or so less than 2009. since nearly half of the games are agaist the east, I’ll stay with what I said. If anyone else wishes to compare the other teams, have at it. 15 starts, and 5 against the East….five more agaist teams that are first or second in their divisions.

  89. Bo knows June 20th, 2011 at 11:42 pm

    It all started in ST when he let Soriano dictate his schedule.

    ———————————

    Now that’s legitimate. Totally agree.

    Girardi was called Fiery Joe for a reason. Considering Soriano was the front office poster boy, I’m sure it was a tough pill to swallow.

    Girardi, Pena and Rothschild, that’s a power combo when it comes to pitching.

    Just a thought – maybe it was give him enough rope.

  90. Crawdaddy June 20th, 2011 at 11:42 pm

    Rich,

    By the way, I’m starting to agree with you about Gardner. Girardi needs to play him every game if he’s not injured or giving him a blow.

    Hitler should be made a joke, also for someone who is against blog stalkering you sure know a lot about Bojo, also you keep calling him a pretty offensive name which I seems to go against your prior rants about blog decency!

    Man. Don’t show up around here if the Yankees get trounced. This is what it’s like after a great win from Nova. Whew !

    VY/WCYF

    That is the fifth or sixth time you or WCYF have brought up the topic of Hitler or the Nazis on this blog in the last few months.

    Do you really think it is appropriate to bring his name into a baseball discussion without anyone else discussing anything to do with him? Do you have a sick, perverse need to cause anguish to others and draw attention to yourself that compels you to throw around his name with impunity?

    My father and 2 uncles fought in WW2 against the Nazis, and one was shot down and killed fighting over North Africa. Many others lost family or suffered from that madman. Yet you continue to bring his name on to here just to gather attention to yourself.

    This is just part of a pattern of bad behavior you (and your puppet master) have brought here, including your obsession with me, making false allegations against me and others, using multiple account names to start fights, etc. You should act more like the 57 year old man you are rather than a 12 year old girl scout you emulate.

    If you continue, there will certainly be repercussions. You will continue to alienate more and more posters. You will continue to be the laughing stock of this blog and scorned for your ignorance, arrogance, and hypocrisy. I’m sure you’ll wear that scorn like a badge of honor…but you continue to march the same path as on other blogs where you have eventually been banned.

    And those are repercussions that you can take to your Third Reich Bank and Trust.

  95. Crawdaddy June 20th, 2011 at 11:46 pm

    Hitler? It’s time to go to bed if that’s now the discussion on a Yankee blog.

If anyone else wishes to compare the other teams, have at it. 15 starts, and 5 against the East….five more agaist teams that are first or second in their divisions.

    His ERA against AL east teams is over 6. He has a 5 ERA against teams over .500, 2.93 against all others. In 2009 he actually had a lower ERA against over .500 teams. Hitters in 09 hit below average against burnett, this year they are batting better than average.

    Josh Romanski was amazing tonight. Working on breaking down numbers and stuff but he was just amazin. 11 strikeouts mostly on his curve and change(4 a piece)

    Cant believe they moved up Lyerly, hopefully they play him at 1st where he is much better, Suttle is just too good at 3rd to have to move for Lyerly. I heard that Segedin is moving up to take his place but not sure. I cant wait for the josh norris “Lyerly is brutal at 3rd” tweets.

  106. Jerkface June 20th, 2011 at 11:51 pm

    The league average for runs per game was higher in 09 than all but NYY and BOS this year! Its pretty fallacious to ignore the run scoring environment when comparing burnett. Given all the evidence, Burnett should be doing better than 09 this year. As it stands he is only giving similar production in an easier environment.

    Its not an accomplishment that Burnett has a 4 ERA. The yankees have to take it due to his contract, and its better than 2010, but he isn’t really living up to the contract.

  107. Bo knows June 20th, 2011 at 11:53 pm

    In my world Nova and Noesi come through and Burnett and all the excitement get dispensed.

    ———————————————————————————————————————-

    Lyerly will most likely anchor first base to replace Maruszak, though he and suttle may switch on occassion. Segedin can play both third and left. Not sure if the Yankees are fully committed to putting Murphy in a corner outfield or third base just yet.

    They are getting very close to breaking the blog guidelines here and being banned as they have been on other blogs. Just history repeating itself.

    No one is breaking any blog guidelines except you. Receive any communications lately requiring you to stop offending people? Let’s see if you can tell the truth.

    You mean this–

    Hey Bojo,

    I don’t believe you meant any offense with the Hitler videos from a few days, but people in our office — people way above me — were emailed complaints and took them seriously. No one is asking me to ban you from the blog, but I have to ask you to stay away from that reference. It just sets off a firestorm, regardless of intent. Thank you,
