Man.What a way to open the season,with a blown save and a loss.At least Robertson was able to get out of his mess.I see retirement early for Mo.He was great.

Hey Nelson, he can't be perfect every time. The game was lost when Girardi decided to walk the bases loaded to face Pena. And again, the Yankees failed to get a key hit when they needed it. Same as last year.

 

[ZANYMASTER]

The old man is more hittable than ever.He knows it's time.Soriano has to fill those big shoes.

 

[magicalmets]

I'm not a Yankee fan but really it's game one guys. Respect that man

 

[ZANYMASTER]

He's the best in the business don't get me wrong but one should finish on top.

yea, but, in his prime...it would of been 8 pitches and goodnight...

 

[ZANYMASTER]

AL East is gonna be super competitive this year.

 

[howze01]

This is just absurd! He blew 5 saves all year last season! He blew one save and you're ready for him to retire?? Tell me this, who are you going to replace him with? Who's better than him?

 

[44santababy]

kenny powers

 

[ZANYMASTER]

I had to google him.Lol.Seriously,Maybe Robertson after he retires.Hard to replace a hall of famer

 

[howze01]

My point exactly. A HOF'er is hard to replace. One that is still the best at what he does is impossible to replace. Give him a fair shake, there's no one you, me or anyone else would want pitching with a 1 run lead in the ninth inning of Game 7.

kenny powers

You're f-ing out!!!

 

[thirty6]

Robertson S good, he could develop into the closer role. Ya never know what will happen or who it will be. Mo gonna be really hard to replace, whenever he goes

 

[ZANYMASTER]

Damn. CC sucks.

You're right. Lifetime record of 176-96 is terrible. I wish we could have Burnett back. Think the Pirates will trade him for CC or has CC already ruined his career with these 2 starts?

His fastball was all over the place and had a terrible spring.Maybe he'll warm up in the hotter months lol.The bullpen is what is keeping the Yanks alive.

That's why they call it a TEAM sport. 25 players are on the roster because one player can't play 8 positions and pitch too. Oh, and I've yet to see any team ever go 162-0. Loses are expected. Don't be too hard on your own team Nelson. Gotta give them a chance, only been 6 games (and 3-0 in their last 3 )

Go Yankees
