The Yankees try to avert the sweep in Fenway, with Lefty (2-0, 2.53 ERA) taking the hill against Masterson (1-0, 3.18 ERA). As per His Abeness, the lineups are below. According to Abraham, JD is unfortunately out of the lineup:
Johnny Damon is out of the lineup with a sore right shoulder, a sore knee and a sore back. Girardi said he hopes Damon will be available tomorrow.
That’s too bad, since he’s 9 for his last 21 (.429) with 4 runs, 2 HR, and 4 RBI, and in the process raised his average from .256 to .317. Clearly, after the extra innings on Wednesday and Friday, and yesterday’s pummeling of the pitching, Lefty needs to be good and go deep in the game.
Move back to two above .500, guys. Let’s Go, Yankees!

berroa is totally hopeless.
I just not signed out then could not sign in.
Joe is here
Hey Joe how are things
ok, u?
oh hey joe!
see how excited john miller gets when it goes foul?
Well, that was close. That is masterson’s weakness, the inability to perform passably against lefties (as a starter)
Im ok just tired its late here in the UK
Damn I thought Mats hit a homer
Yea, sui ripped that ball.
i saw him last july 5th at the stadium last year–he “lost” but it was a 1-0 game …
did a great job…
so joe–i’m surprised you didnt join a fantasy league with OBP
I joined a league with some guys at work. They chose the stats. i didnt even really want to play but did it anyway. It is OK.
To be honest, I would like to play in a league with only WARP as a stat.
you should make your own league..i’d join up so would nick i bet ya
nah, im ok, thanks though. i prefer real baseball anyway.
maybe next year
Ortiz is just hoping that the pitch he is thinking of is actually coming…
Pettitte has looked impressive.
Well, aside from that.
Damn 2-1 down
Wow!
