Texeria did exactly what scuds said he would do in a big spot - not produce

is this what we should expect out of him this year scuds in these big spots like the 8th inning?

You forgot to mention that they are on pace to lose 162 games this season.

Im even more disappointed than either of you. I bet a friend that they would go undefeated.

we saw things yesterday that make you wonder about why thye gave these guys all this money , that's all i'm saying

scuds has been right about this Tex guy - he had shots against Boston last year with men on in the playoffs and didn't come through - he picked up right were he left off from last year

Well, i see a lineup that will be fierce at the plate and weak in the field. I see a very good pitching staff with extremely suspect middle relief and setup and an aging closer.

Texiera will hit his and he will come through sometimes and sometimes he won't.

Sabathia will win 15 games at least but I don't remember him being one of those shut down guys when the bright lights were on. Someone correct me if that is inaccurate.

not against boston is he anyway - cc and carmona couldn't get anyone out in '07

Do you remember the start that Sabathia got of to last year? He was 0-3 in his first 4 games. He gave up 27 earned runs on 32 hits.

The only thing I know about Tex is that he is usually much better after the all star break (a lot of good that does them now). But I guess A-Rod is not around to take the crap, so it falls into Tex's lap. But Nady and Matsui left 4 men on base too.

But you should probably wait at least another 2-3 games before you declare these guys as busts.

scuds will fill us in on Tex later i'm sure

but as a yankee fan that was not the start you were looking for from these 300 million dollar men

no on the other hand k-rod and the other relievers did the job yesterday

Yeah you got me, that awesome Mets pitching staff is only going to give up 1 run every game. Since that's the case, it's no big deal that they left a small village on base yesterday.

you're missing the point , i am a yankee fan , the mets big time new guy showed up yesterday and mowed them down in the 9th with the game on the line

as for cc and tex well , they looked like the guys in the banks getting all that and not giving up a thing in return except cc got an early shower
