2009 Divisional Series

[Modbert]

I wish the announcers weren't so slanted for the Yankees.

Tex's HR wins it.

It's over.

 

[elvis]

how big is that "foul" ball now?

 

[Modbert]

This has to be one of the dumbest things posted in a baseball thread.

Hughes has been one of the best set up men in baseball this year, only a fool would say he's not 'MLB caliber.'

The Yankees plans for him is to be a starter, not a set up man. His career statistics when you look at them in perspective are worse.

His statistics this year were alright, however they were nothing amazing.

Lucky win for the Yankees though. Time for the Red Sox to tie up their series.

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Shut the **** up with your baby shit and learn the game.

Hughes throws 97 and was lights out all year, and every team in the game wishes they had him coming out in the 8th.

'Luck' had nothing to do with winning, that is clutch baseball and talent that won it, not luck.

 

[Modbert]

V-Mart!

I know the game you ******* homer. The Yankees got lucky many times throughout the game. It was thanks to the piss poor hitting and baserunning by the Twins that the Yankees won.

By the way, if Hughes is so good, why don't the Yankees start him? Oh wait, don't want him giving up another ten runs within the first three innings.

Why didn't the Oakland A's ever start Eckersley?

He was a better closer than starter. We'll see if that pans out for Hughes. Personally I'd say he's better off in the pen. However, the Yankees think he can be a starter.

No you don't obviously, by this again childish post.

Why doesn't Boston start Okajima or Papelbon? That is the idiot scenario you are trying to push as a pitcher's worth.

And since you don't know the game, players like Goose Gossage and Dennis Eckeresly (both in the HoF) were average starters and great releavers.

As to the game, you have to learn the difference between not being clutch (like the twins) and coming through when it counts (as NY did).

great game!

That HR would have been a single in a real stadium like Fenway.

Yes I do know the game, that is where you're wrong.

Remember, the Red Sox did try to start Papelbon. What happened? They found he was a better closer. Guess what? The Yankees still think that Hughes can be a starter. So don't be blaming me if he gets shelled out there again. I think he can be great in the pen, I never said he was bad really. I said he wasn't the best and you flipped the **** out like the homer you are. Perhaps I used the wrong word usage when I said he wasn't MLB caliber where instead I should of used starter caliber. However, you jumped in my shit faster than Sinatra when it comes to Sarah Palin.

I already talked about Eckersley if you cared to read, but you didn't.

As for the game, the Twins weren't clutch, the Twins fucked up. The Yankees capitalized upon the Twins ******* up. This game would of never had gone to extras if the baserunning wasn't crap on that 2nd base play.

 

[Modbert]

Mike Lowell not showing his age there. Hunter was shocked.

 

[Xenophon]

Yes I do know the game

Obviously you don't, because you keep trying to push an infantile postion.

In the modern game relivers are extremly important, you sound like a five year old 'if he can't start he doesn't belong in the majors.'

I thought you were growing up, but I see that is off, you are still a little boy.

When you mature a bit, you will be embarrissed making such silly posts.

I still don't think Eckersley deserved that MVP award.

 

[Andrew2382]

It's not worth it xeno...obviously the best set up man in baseball isn't mlb caliber

You obviously can't ******* read. Maybe you're blinded by your love for the Yankees. I have cited Eckersley and Papelbon as two great pitchers who worked in the Pen. I have even said that Hughes can be great in the pen. Because I made the mistake of saying MLB caliber instead of starter caliber, you freak the **** out worse than a *****. So while you talk about maturity, you aren't showing any of it.

So go **** yourself for jumping in my shit like you did. I'm willing to admit I made a mistake in my word usage, can you admit the same in jumping to conclusions like that?

Oh go **** yourself too if you're going to harp on word usage. I corrected myself, you two talk about maturity but you're both acting five.

Who do you think did?
