Yankees.com: Yankees win big as CC handles O’s

BALTIMORE—CC Sabathia enjoyed an early cushion and remained in breezy command of the Orioles’ lineup on Wednesday, helping the Yankees post an 8-3 victory at Camden Yards.

Walking to the mound with a lead already in his back pocket, the left-hander improved to 10-1 against the Orioles—his most wins against any American League East opponent.

Even with today’s win, I’m still annoyed about yesterday’s loss.  But it was nice to see Curtis Granderson get a couple of hits, and Robinson Cano raise his SLG to over .700 on the season.  Cano’s now hitting an impressive .390/.430/.701, and I think he’s probably the Yankee MVP to this point in the year, although I’ll run the numbers tomorrow to confirm it.

For this instance in history.  Cano is better than Pujos, thus is worth $50 million a year.

Girardi said Posada probably won’t play tomorrow.

All checked in for tomorrow’s flight to Nerdfest.

[3] I got into work this morning and learned that a part of a project I work on and thought was on the back burner instead was on the critical path to keeping an [insert Yankees payroll+ here] experiment on schedule and today/tonight is my last chance for a long time to get my electronics in before the area becomes uninhabitable, so I had to spend all day begging people to build the stuff I was designing to make up for the missing/mismade cables not there/there so I can spend tonight trying to get it all to work, as soon as Rilkekindstrich is ready to be put to bed, so I’m glad I’m not going to Nf, but all the same, [Alex the Lion]Damn you all to heck [/Alex the Lion].

Uh, lacking facebook, can someone give a recap on the nerdfest?

Pregame Rally Point for the Cleveland Spiders Strike Team is 11am Saturday. Location still being argued, will involve sudsy beverage intake and statistical predictions. We will then place bets on who actually gets past the gendarmes at the gate in various degrees of semi-intoxication.

Holy schnikies ! I almost forgot to pack Jetes !! And the bonus commemorative Mark Teixeira 24k gold plated hand painted collectible quarter !

[6] Thanks.

Yay win.

[7] You understood [6]? Congrats.

What’s the link to the facebook group?

And yeah, yesterday’s loss and all of the Tampa Bay wins makes tonight’s win a little less awesome - but it IS a good win!

[9] It’s rrlyw

Even with today’s win, I’m still annoyed about yesterday’s loss.

Every time they scored tonight, I was all like, “where the Farns was that Veras last night, Albaladejos?”

[2] it’s a convinent excuse for him to not catch AJ!


eyeballing Fangraphs’ WAR (which is probably not up to today’s game yet and it’s UZR lacks even further behind), Cano’s the current lead by a 0.1 WAR over Jorge and A-rod, and his batting runs is huge , basically the equivalent of Jorge + Arod, yikes
(which also means his current UZR suck balls)

[9] Now that is scary, RLYW posters on Facebook.

For those of you who fret about the Mets (I do not): be heartwarmed.  Fangraphs reports that their run differential is not indicative of their expected run differential, or whatever.  I.e. they have been very lucky.

The Mets have indeed been astoundingly lucky.  Ivy the Met-fan is just waiting for the sword to fall.
