Marwin isn't on this team for his bat. He's on the team cause he can play 7 positions. Just quit batting him 5th.

True. But you have to bat him somewhere. And this year, competition for the 9th spot in the order is fierce.

    Two Diamond Club tickets available for the Sunday night game.  Free.  Need to pick them up from me in 77027. Rules: Poster must be a big contributor to this thread/last years shag thread.  No gue

kemp should hit 9th any time he's in the lineup.

and gattis ain't going nowhere.

Know marwin is on roster for his Swissarmy knife ability. He should only be hitting 7th or lower. Others right now are more deserving of playing time than jake,gattis and marwin

The NY media were having a party over Torres a few days ago. I suppose what we've seen from him so far today is the old "chalk it up to youth."

All true.  But I'm starting to think of him as a double-switch guy.  That .303 with 23 HR last year was apparently a career year, and by a lot.

Marwin how the hell do you not make it to 3rd one that? 

Eh, unlucky hop.  I don't blame Marwin for being aggressive there.  Gattis moved up to second at least.

On balance, I suppose I can live with Marwin making the first out of the inning at third. But only because I'm still stunned he got on base to start with.

I don’t think aggressiveness is the issue. Gattis was practically on second before Marwin started his slide.

Exactly, and Gattis is slow. Should have had more that inning. 

ravech talks about all the youth in mlb and how they're responsible for winning games now.  then he says "judge, bird, sanchez due up, speaking of youth."  i know 25-26 is young-ish, but come on.

When your older players aren't that great, I guess you do have to depend on utes. 

altuve is getting hot, but shit, why is he lunging so much more than previous years?  makes him off balance.

German looks like a AA pitcher or a Cy Young candidate depending on which innings you watch.

german has looked pretty solid against us this season.  not sure what other teams are doing that we can't figure out.

4 runs in 5 2/3 doesn’t do it for you?

pretty much made one mistake today (couple of our guys got walks or reached on error) and pitched 4 scoreless last time.  several low stress innings today.

92 pitches thru 6 for jv.  the way he's pitching to weak contact (so many pop ups) today, instead of k's, i actually would've thought the count was lower.  unless he has a crazy efficient 7th, he's probably a 7 inning guy today.

i definitely throw devo in the 8th, then who?  i guess peacock only faced one dude, right?

if ever there was a time for a bloop and a blast, maybe let's do that.

As Sheriff Justice would say...German's got nothing to do with it.

Devo for 8th and 9th.  He only threw 9 pitches yesterday.

I appreciate that gentleman's willingness to serve, but today is memorial day not veterans day. They should have had a family that lost someone in a war. 

 Ok bullpen, hope you got the fuck ups out of your system in Cleveland. 

I like Harris. I just don't particularly like the way he's pitched in a few games lately.

Yankee fans are such mongoloids.

Especially surly’s Mr Heblow

No one in recent memory has parlayed as many 2-0 or 3-0 counts into outs as has our own Mr. Gonzalez. Sigh....
