I hate Pettite more then any other Yankee.
He seems to always pitch a gem against us.

I can think of a lot of guys I hate more than him.

There's just something in particular about him that pushes it for me.
I don’t know what it is, but he’s has it.

HOF
If Pettitte goes into the HOF, he better thank the Orioles on his plaque.
I personally like him. He doesn’t seem douchy like the rest. Except Rivera. I like him too. And I also liked Paul O’Neil. Outside of that, if I could punch either Jeter or bin Laden in the nuts, it would be a tough call.

It's also that pick-off move that's somehow legal.
whoever had the ALDS for MFY called it the “greatest balk move in baseball”

Buster Olney doesn't think any of the PED guys will get in.
He was on the BS Report podcast a couple of weeks ago talking playoffs and got on that subject. He said he’ll be voting for all those guys because they were the best players of the era regardless, but he knows too many voters who will never vote for any of the PED guys.

Older votes don't even know what OPS is
"Walk not down that road, I cannot tell you where it goes. Ask me no more questions - some things you're not meant to know." - The Sword
They will never get in
If they did the voting would always be questioned. I personally think that if they used steroids then they dont belong in Cooperstown. Now Pete Rose on the other hand im calling Bud Selig to get his ban lifted.

True that
Just remember there is a reason why it is. But its less addicting then drinking sooo…………

Hated?
I believe we still shoot them when they climb the border?

Well we specifically hated them at the time marijuana was prohibited
and it was a big reason behind the prohibition. Harry Anslinger was an asshole.
What's there to question about it?
The best guys of the era were the best cheaters. Put something on the plaques, give it its own wing, whatever.

You been to Cooperstown?
You walk around this museum and look at all these old records and great players that hold them. Then you come upon the home run record. Barry Bonds is at the top with a huge asterisk by his name. It just drives me insane. If you really want them to be in the Hall of Fame get them their own. Name it Baseball Cheaters Hall of Fame.

ESPN hasn't renewed his contract
So there is hope. Of course they haven’t renewed Jon Miller’s contract, and letting him go is about the dumbest thing ever.

Settling in with a nice dinner to watch Cliff Lee kick the shit out of the yankees
Bone-in ribeye with a kohlrabi puree and crispy leeks.
I mean if you're gonna have leeks, they kinda have to be crispy, right?
What the hell is a leek?

They're related to onions and garlic

the yankees go down in order against a man that josh bell hit 2 homers off of.
thus, Josh Bell > Yankees.

In the post season, it's really important to get that first out
Thanks for the insight, John Smoltz.

Captain Clutch
He K’d merely to allow Gardner to steal second. He plays the game the right way.

Nice work Rangers
pitch count at 97. It’ll be interesting to see who Washington wants to pitch the 8th against the bottom of the Yankee lineup. (at least I hope this is the case.)

since he’ll be facing them so often when he’s playing for us next year.
105 pitches through 7
Looks like Lee can go 8! Maybe the Orioles should sign this guy.

122 pitches through 8
Do you bring soon to be Oriole Cliff Lee out for the 9th? I say yes.
Librarians are hiding something
I remember when he was still a Mariner,
and he was pitching complete games every other games and 8 inning games in-between. I was wondering why he was being kept out so long. Then I was wondering how someone could be awesome enough to do that every start.
Unreal
122 pitches 8 IP 13K’s 2H
I know the Orioles need a power bat but, imagine how pumped the starting rotation would be if they got Cliff Lee, I think the pitching would feed off each other all season long.
by LoveForTheGame13 on Oct 18, 2010 10:48 PM EDT reply actions
Cliff Lee should learn from his experiences.
Does he want to pitch for a team with such a crappy offense as the Yankees? Or does he want to pitch for a team that dominates him?
Lets get a yanker rally going

I'm loving the humiliation factor

I say let the Yankees score seven so all the stupid fans try to turn around
and get back to the stadium then have the Rangers end it once the fans get back in their seats.

Unfortunately, the Yankees are going to spend whatever it take to sign this guy.
Your mother.
in the pinstripe alley thread
they were suggesting they accelerate the signing and get it done before game 7.
