This is the type of thing that can light some fire under some player's asses, and they need it, just need to make up 2 games in 1 and a half week, hard, but not impossible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoomSlowik Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 Unless Johan can pitch every game they're going to be in the same place in a few weeks. Seriously, how far do you think you're going to go with Boof Bonser, Carlos Silva, and Scott Baker making starts in the playoffs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, he may even resist the urge to shrug his shoulder. You can't light fires under the asses of players when they're practically zombified.

Truthfully, I hope something like this does light a fire under their asses...but...if the standings/Freddy's near perfect game/AJ's walkoff home run/the want to repeat can't do that, I don't think anything in this stretch of the season will. Corpseball at its finest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 I think it's kinda tasteless for the Twins supporters to be having a mock funeral for the Sox after the whole Kirby Puckett incident. Oh well...maybe Blyleven can swear during the eulogy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well...maybe Blyleven can swear during the eulogy. Yea, they are a bunch of panty wastes up here. This afternoon at work i wore my world series sox hat and i get the 'Are you guys eliminated yet?' comments. Then they give the 'Hey, your bears are going to choke this year just like the sox, so why dont you just jump onto our bandwagon when you have the chance' line. They all freakin suck up here.

GoRowand33 Posted September 19, 2006 Share Posted September 19, 2006 if this was last year I'm sure we run the table and shove it in their faces I'd put money on rolling over and getting swept by the Twins this year though unless some small miracle occurs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if I'd go that far. Minnesota has been pretty hot record-wise, and their bullpen is a major asset in the playoffs. However, you would think that the rest of that rotation would be a major detriment, especially considering the Yankees have a much better lineup than pretty much any team in the league. All you need to do is win one of the games that Johan starts and they're just about done (though that can be difficult). I'd much rather face them than Detroit, they have several dangerous pitchers.

Zoomer, I think the only thing that will stop the Yankees is day after day after day good starting pitching. If I were the Jank's the only teams I would worry about are the White Sox and Athletics.

knightni Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 God. I wanna shove the wild card up their ass the last 3 games of the season. I hope the Sox and them get in so we can watch them lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
