Ritchie Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 hey, hey, hey... my brother in Florida texted me to say the Rays hammered Cole in the last 2 innings being down 6 to zero have now tied the game at 6 to 6... way to go Cole.. 6 to 0 lead and you flushed it down the drain. back to 10 games in the division. SLIP, SLIDING, AWAY!!!!! and again, nothing the STINkees do makes me happy..

Expand Sure there will. Yanks lost a tough one today. The margin of victory this weekend was 1 run in each game. A few timely hits or better pitches and the Yankees could have won all 3 games. At the same time, they could have lost all 3 games. The Rays didn’t blow out the Yankees in these games despite the disparity in their records.

Can add to the list Montas (wasted prospects for this bum), Rodon (who knows if he'll pitch this year - often injured but stayed healthy last year to get his big contract).
