Delmon fucking Young.

Fucking rain delay.

Girardi has to send CC back out no matter how long this rain delay is.

Leyland needs to do the same with Verlander.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

Well, that really sucks... Wow. Postponed..

 

[Giantmetfan07]

Resumed in Bot 2nd tomorrow night when it will probably still be raining. Game 2 is on Sunday @ 3:07pm.

....that's a shame.

Girardi says Sabathia won't start Sunday, and it looks like he will start only one game in this series. Nova Saturday, Garcia Sunday.
----------
Girardi sounds like he is leaning toward using Burnett in this series if he needs a fourth starter.

postponement fucks up everything.

Porcello Game 4, Fister Game 5, Leyland says... Acknowledges dilemma because NYY will have a RHer instead of LHer with his lineup set.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

From the weather i've looked at, still seems like a 50/50 shot at rain tomorrow night. Sounds like if they can't fit that game in tomorrow there could be a doubleheader on Sunday.

#Yankees have issued statement on ticket mess: "There are no refunds or exchanges for tickets" to either Game 1 or 2. (Or for $45 parking)

that's rough

 

[elcheato]

Good break for the Yankees though, now they only have to face Verlander once. But I guess you could say the same for CC and Tigers.

 

[Elite]

We were only going to face him once anyway.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

the parking should at least be refundable. Thats just a dick move.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

CC was expected to pitch Game 4 and I heard Verlander would go possible Game 5 because of the day off would actually give him an extra day's rest. Now that the rotations are changed it won't happen that way.

 

[Giantmetfan07]

On the bright side, whoever advances has their Ace rested for games 1 & 4. Could be a blessing in disguise.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

We were only going to face him once anyway.

Yeah, it doesn't change the fact for Verlander at all since he wasn't going to pitch two games in this series anyways...

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

the parking should at least be refundable. Thats just a dick move.

Gonna be a lot of pissed off fans...

 

[Giantmetfan07]

But a lot of fans are also local and probably took the train to the game. Still sucks.

 

[elcheato]

Confidence

Well, they paid big bucks for them tickets to see two innings... I know I wouldn't be happy.
