Is there a reason why shes your teams waifu does she have anything to do with the Yankees?
Why are sox-yanks threads so shit now
>>69574918
Because both teams havent been real conpetitors for some time
please be good today erod
>>69574876
She's helped to spark a meme winstreak that >we weren't able to sustain at all. Other than that, she's done nothing
>>69574918
Because both teams are shit

IT"s OVER YANKeES -- -- YOU AsKED foR ThiS
Yankee's fans are pathetic.
>>69574953
How long was the win streak?
Btw for Yankees fans whens the last time you went to a game and how much were your tickets?
>it was 86 years
>>69574996
Tbh I miss the 1918 chants
>>69574995
6 games. That streak is pretty much the only reason they've been hovering around .500 for so long.
>>69574941
>>69574953
Except only the Yankees are shit
Post yfw the Yankees don't have any relevant prospects like the Red Sox had with Cander, Mookie, Jbj and shaw so they will never be able to bounce back without spending tons of money and waiting years for draft picks.
is an 8.59 era good
>e-9od
>>69575058
True but we have finished last place since 2013, the Yankees however are gonna be a mediocre shitheap like they were in the 80s for a long while
>>69574995
>when's the last time you went to a game
2014, I go to college outside of New York so I can't go much anymore
>how much were your tickets?
No clue, I got invited by my rich friend. Probably a lot.
>>69574996
>to finance broadway play
lmao boston
>>69575094
Nah. The clearout starts at the end of the season, and >we have more than enough money to build a solid team quickly. We're not going to see a Cubs-tier turnaround, but we'll be back soon.
>The Yankees are going to make this faggot look like an ace
hehe wow if the game keeps going like this they're going to play a lot of extra innings (infinite )
>>69574995
Last one I went to was 6/26. The tickets were $6 for grandstand seats. I've been to 12 so far this season

I don't know if I buy the Pomeranz meme yet.
>>69575176
I just get them the night before or the day of the game off stubhub. You have to walk to the Bronx terminal to pick them up though. Obviously games against teams like Boston are more.
>>69575203
>great
that's bad
>>69575214
I'm expecting his ERA to go up to 2.80-3.00, but I think he'll be better than any of the alternatives like Buccholz or an AAAA shitter

don't bully him. he just tips his pitches sometimes.
go yanks
I thought the red sox we're winning with their "homegrown" prospects, whats with all the trades.
>>69575301
using homegrown boys as bargaining chips is the best way to use them so you get rid of them before they bust
>>69575301
You can never have too many aces.
The fact that this team hasn't been no-hit like 20 times this season is absolutely astounding.
>>69575301
Dombrowski likes proven talent.
is anyone watcching this lol
literally name a single player on this Yankee team that was drafted by them
You can't
>another meme outfielder in the middle of a meme hitstreak
>>69575315
That said, Kopech throwing 105mph peaked much interest. Him & Groome are nothing to sneeze at.
why are they letting it rain

Hey my Reddit friend
>>69574918
I quite like them actually. These threads were dogshit when both teams were good because every "neutral" would flock to them and shitpost about the quality of the cities which has nothing to do about the game, and complain about other sports like handegg. I'd rather have a conversation about the teams and game going on than meme about the Yankees for the 9000th time in my life tbqhwy Joe
>>69575301
Doumbrowski loves cleaning out good farm systems for mediocre talent to make "runs" and then failing.
>>69576128

>>69576093

>>69576160
Haha great we get to enjoy Mendoza. I can't wait to hear some of her stories from her college softball days! (Me in the pic I don't actually want to hear her stories)
>>69576148
Yankees/Sox is one of the only baseball matchups that gets consistently good national ratings, so there's always at least 1 ESPN game per series.
>>69576172
>>69576175
didi is terrible
Does anyone here miss 2004?
>>69576209
yeah man haha
yankees fans probably miss 2003 though :p
or maybe not they didn't win that year
>>69576209
No, only started watching in 2013
>>69576209
1998-2009 were the GOAT rivalry years

I can't even imagine the shitposting that would've happened if /sp/ were around when Boone hit his home run.

So much shitposting that it would make post-slip Liverpool look like lighthearted teasing. And it wouldn't stop until 2009.
>>69576265
The shitposting after Rivera's blown save would've been annoying as fuck, because all of the Red Sox fans would've posted shit like >we /comeback/ now
It doesn't help that they would've been right either

Jackie BradElite Jr.
>>69576265
honestly the 2004 yanks weren't even a good yankees team
core four era peaked 1998-1999, all down hill from there
With that hit the Sox are back up to 5 regular starters batting .300 or higher
Meanwhile Leon still batting over .400 somehow and Brentz batting .300+ as well
Feels like May again
>>69576291
I think Slippy G would still have more shitposting because of all the non-Americans, it was Gerrard's last chance, and Liverpool had never won the Premier League. The Yankees at least had the 2000 WS to fall back on.
>>69576265

Dude what, what about 2000 and 2001?
SANDY THE GOD
Sandy Leon is Elite
No denyin' the Lion.
Jacoby Ellsbury comes up with his team trailing by 1, with a man on 1st and 3rd and two outs. What does he do? He swings at the first pitch, pops it up to the infield.
And we get the pleasure of watching the further decline of Ellsbury's bat, the further decline of his power, and the further decline of his range in CF. But hey, at least we only have to pay him $21.1 million dollars a year for the next four seasons.
Bonus: another year of useless CC Sabathia, too. Good times will be had by all.

both flukes, 2000 team just got hot at the right time and 2001 was only there as a result of the mariners choking
>>69576348
Good post
>>69576352
People give the Red Sox shit for letting Lester go, but letting Ellsbury go was completely the right move. Some will work out, some won't.
Let's just buy Cuba, take the 9 best guys there, and put them on the field.
>>69576352
don't forget that the guy in front of him had just walked on four pitches
>>69576377
The 2000 team was great. 2001 was probably one of the weaker teams the Yankees have sent to the WS though
>>69576352
>yanks try to cuck the sox by stealing ellsbury
>end up cucking themselves
lmao
>>69576352
That's pretty depressing
>>69576344
2001 was possibly the greatest WS ever even if it wasn't the best Yankee team
I think 3 or 4 of the seven games ended in walk-offs
>>69576383
exactly, Ellsbury is going to get fucking rekt at some point and be useless for the rest of his contract
Anthony "White Flag" Swarzak in to mop up for the Yankees.
>>69576385
You joke, but Bud Selig is taking steps to keep the Red Sox from doing exactly just that.

We MLB Forums, circa 2012 nao.
Ellsbury was an amazing base runner, with great potential. Who just so happened to have one lone MVP type year that everyone blew out of proportion.
For his dinky arm power alone, he was not worth the money, but hey... it's not like the Sox didn't go right out & sign Carl Crawford to ungodly money.
>>69576437
Whoops.
why do japanese people love the red sox
>>69576451
I disgaree its a bad post that brings up unfavorable memories
gary stop racially oppressing this man
>>69576460
Boston is really no different New York or LA when it comes to spending insane amounts of money, their fans just delude themselves into thinking that they're somehow morally superior because they play in a shitty broken-down stadium.
>>69576460
>Crawford
I still see #13 Crawford jerseys shopping sometimes. Still slightly amusing.
>>69576472
They don't, it's just that the Red Sox were mentioned in a popular textbook for Japanese children.
gary wtf
he gave you the perfect end to the interview with the knicks comment
why are you still bothering him
you idiot i'm glad you got fired
>>69576456
god can you imagine knowing that you are constantly being watched while you eat?

>E-Rod only 1 run over 6 innings
>>69576528
I know
the real winner in that AB was Eduardo's rod in Alex's girlfriend's ass later tonight after the Sox win
The Yankees need to start scoring runs if they want to win the game
>>69576477
The real thing here is up until very recently Boston didnt have the deep pockets to contend with New York and LA
>>69576551
or they could take away the runs they let up
>>69576580
Thats not fair tho

I deem you an OP
>>69576618
John Henry bought the Sox in 2002, so that would be 16ya
>>69576618
Really believe it all changed with Bob Kraft buying the Patriots.
Finally a serious owner, all about investing in a Boston area team.
>>69576615
Thanks, I'm trying to get hired by ESPN
>giving up a HR to Aaron Hill
>>69576641
yeah, the Patriots were always at the bottom of the Boston sports power rankings, now they're a close second behind the Sox

How much of a head case tho
Daily reminder that the Sox traded based Andrew Miller for this kid who has finally not shit the bed
>>69576821
You now remember that he gave the "suck it" move and rustled a lot of jimmies
>>69576871
FOR ONE GAME
He's fooled us like this already. Don't be a sucker again.
