No A-Rod tonight vs Verlander

[Sunde91]

geraldi trying to flex too much here

cano has the longest hitless streak in mlb playoff history 0-26 and not a word about him. Swisher whiffs at the game winning hit in gm1 and can't hit. Granderson striking out everywhere

[SuddenDee]

I just put in my first MLB in months. Tigers ML like the square I am. Hopefully this is a good sign

This is my first post in months... Good luck S ( batting eyelashes ).

[HOT WINGS]

Probably helps Yankees if anything. Just trying to load up the lineup with LH bats against Verlander and play some small ball

No way you can bench an MVP-caliber player who hit .313 on the season with 33 bombs. A lefty facing a righty at that

[lakerboy]

Good. His #'s versus verlander means nothing. In playoffs he is a strikeout artist.

this is what happens when you try and get a girl's digits on a baseball during a playoff game

[kfranz31]

who will strikeout for him tonight

[Jago2008]

Not sure why there are so many talking about the Lefty v. Righty matchup in this game?

Justin Verlander has struck out 22 batters in the postseason, 18 of them being lefties. I'm sorry, but there's not much to that statistic in this matchup.

And what will everyone say about Girardi when the Yanks win this game?

And what will everyone say about Girardi when the Yanks win this game?

The point of the thread I started before it was merged with this one was not to say if it was the right move or not. I personally think it is the right move.

But the point I was trying to make is about ARoid being disrespected by upper mgmt and Cashman who I have a feeling made the call on this one

Everyone and there fukkin mother had ARoid in the lineup tonight playing SS

It is a shocker

Nunez is quite possibly top 5 worst fielding shortstops in baseball history. He is atrocious. ARoid in his fukkin sleep at his age is 10x the fielding SS Nunez could ever dream of being. On top of that ARoid is 4 for 7 with 2 hrs vs Verly this yr. Upper Mgmt just wanted to bitchslap and humiliate ARoid so they made the call to bench him

[Big Bear]

Chavez is a left handed hitter, it makes sense boss.

Would not of affected Chavez being in lineup

Again, Aroid would of played SS

[lakerboy]

Obviously Cashman made the call. HE even said so.

I am sure ownership probably chimed in also

Bronxer common man A Rod cannot play short. He's old and no longer on roids and has no fukkin range

It's been like a decade since he's played SS

[Big Bear]

Maybe A-rod is a liability as a big league SS.

Nunez is a pretty solid ball player.
Yanks have some speed in the line-up tonight.

[TheMoneyShot]

A-Rod is injured. There's a reason for all of this...

[PAYTON20]

A Roid was flirting with a woman in the stands during the game, signing baseballs for her and shit

[Br0nxer]

A-Rod is injured. There's a reason for all of this...

I dont think that is the case

I thought 10 days ago he might be injured but the way he has looked he would of leaked it

He is being thoroughly fukkin embarassed and humiliated

If he was truly injured he would of made sure that info got out somehow

No reason to be a hero at this point

He isnt even playing

Cashman just interviewed on Yes

"ARoid is healthy"

For the 10th fukkin time

have any of you ever seen eduardo nunez play SS

the guy is quite possibly top 5 worst fielding Shortstops in the history of the game

if i was to set a line tonight on errors by Nunez it would look something like this

o1.5 -115
u1.5 -105

[bleek88]

I had sex with your mother and she LIKED IT!! GO TIGERS !! -1 to cash BITCHES!!!!

Haha you're trippin. Under easy

Nunez > A-Rod at SS, Hits for higher AVG, and gives them speed on the bases

If A-Rod played short there would be so many basehits in the 5 hole and up the middle
