Point to the standings all you want. The Yankees don’t need to finish in 1st place in the division to make the playoffs. As long as they make the wild card, they have just as good a shot at winning the World Series as the Sox do.
This $1 million per game, 45 year old pitcher just whipped the Sox ass. And the precious Josh Beckett who Sox fans talk about like he’s the second coming gave up 13 hits. Yeah sure, the Sox will probably win the division. But I know Boston fans are scared of the prospect of facing the Yankees in the playoffs.
Enjoy the view from the top now Sox fans, it’s gonna hit hard come October.
And where was he last week in Anaheim? Or Detroit? Or how about the game in Chicago when the pathetic White Sox lit his ass up? Roger pitches a game where he walks 5 guys and you want to talk about a great performance? (Hint, Roger wasn’t anything great last night but the Sox offense was even lamer)
I love how Yankee fans want to talk trash when you can look up major disappointment in the dictionary and see the Yankees. Your team should have run away with it this year and they didn’t. They allowed a team like the Sox with sub-par or average offensive talent in most of the line up to be in 1st place all year. They are paying $30 million a year to starting pitchers who are either in the minors, tanking it or too old to get AAA hitters out. They are paying a known cheater $19 million to platoon with Andy Phillips.
If your team makes the playoffs you should consider yourself very, very lucky.
