    If you ignore all the runs and hits and walks he's given up, Flexen's been very good.

    This fuckin' team, folks. This fuckin' team.

    I picked a good night to leave the TV off, apparently.

How can you trade Matz after he wins two games in the LCS and then throws a shutout in Game 3 of the WS? Don't forget him hitting for the cycle in that second LCS game. Yeah, but that was only because they changed the scoring from a three-base error to a triple after Bryce Harper crashed into the wall and dropped the ball. Should really have been an error.

    It was definitely raining (obviously) -- I remember being at the Greenwich HS college fair that night, and was on the LIE headed home listening on the radio when Endy caught that ball and nearly skidded off the road in the combination of excitement and rain.

Found Molina and Beltran, and then searched... and there he is. Somehow, he's NOT the most hated person in that photo.

    Lyon-Rice-Hefner-Gee. Not exactly Doc-Ronnie-Sid-Ojeda, eh? John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: He'll be fine in the first 2 innings, it's the 4th and 5th that worry me. The 4th more, only because he won't pitch the whole fifth. Fifth? He'll be watching the fifth, showered, in the clubhouse. He won't make it out of the third.

    I love love love that now both Don Mattingly AND Cap'n Intangibles will be tainting their pinstriped memories with a franchise with the most garish color scheme in the majors.

On the other hand I don't put it past the Sox to lay an egg and let them right back in. Friday: Eduardo Rodriguez vs Jamie Garcia -- 2nd MFY start for Garcia who was not very good in start #1 Saturday: Drew Pomeranz vs Luis Severino -- Severino's been their best pitcher by far this year and particularly lately Sunday (the ESPN game of course): Chris Sale vs Jordan Montgomery -- Montgomery has been in and out of the rotation, in now because Sabathia's not. And Sale's been Sale so if the Sawx have already taken the first two the bridges in the Bronx may be crowded well before game time The pain in the ass part is that even though the Yanx are just 3-6 in August, their 2.5 game WC lead has stayed more or less steady as the rest of the WC contenders seem to take turns floundering so no one ever gains any ground. It feels like the Yankees and Red Sox play each other sixty times a year.

    Because if you claim a player on waivers, his current team has three options: they can pull him back (in which case he can't be traded at all), or they can let you have him and his contract, or you can work out some kind of deal. If the player CLEARS waivers, then he can be traded for anyone not on the 40 before 9/1. So what probably happened in this case was that every team passed on him -- Cleveland didn't think they wanted to take on his salary right at that moment -- but then as time went on, they were like "yeah, let's do this."

    That's an interesting question. I'm going to pick a random Phillies home run hitter and say Ryan Howard.
  23. seawolf17
    In 153 games with us, he hit .245/.313/.482, a 107 OPS+, with 37 homers. I'd say he was exactly as advertised and I hope he wins a ring this year.

    I'm sure, as Grimm noted, that the Wilpons would be happy to take nothing more than a 50% off coupon for a frappuccino in exchange for him.

    So glad we waited until waivers to trade him. Crikey.
