wheeler- Phil Hughes just went on the DL according to this tweet

YankeesWFAN: Phil Hughes being placed on DL with what Girardi is calling "a dead arm." Colon takes rotation spot. RHP Lance Pendleton takes roster spot.

so Sabathia, Burnett, Nova, Garcia, Colon is the rotation now..thats quite cringeworthy..hopefully the bats can score your team some runs

yaaawn let it go already. Not cringing at all

CC and AJ are fine. SuperNova is a stud. Colon has looked fine and freddy has not started yet. Pitching is so weak in the league it will come down to bullpen. That is on lockdown.

You act like other teams in the AL have these great rotations

Anyteam that has Phil Coke in their rotation should be worried regardless of having 2 decent starts in 5 years

talk about cringe worthy with that lineup the kittens are putting out I would be worried they could not overcome the issues they have

Yanks just need to shorten games and it is ballgame.

I was simply letting you know what had happened..man you're getting kindof sensitive to this?

I just prefer to not see my pitchers have ERAs of 4.50+ thats all i'm saying..

Great, not so much, but there are teams in the AL with good/great rotations, or atleast better than NY..

Phil Coke started in the minor leagues, I don't get how you can go off acting like he's awful, one good start and one great start, i'll take it all day long right now..he was changed from a starter to reliever because it benefited the Yankees at that time..he would've started for Detroit last year if Bobby Seay didnt get hurt..now that Schlereth becomes the 'left handed specialist' Phil Coke can go back to his natural role..

I do find it odd though, you tell me how i'm blinded and hating on the Yankees, yet you think Phil Coke is horrible for now apparant reason..

Is Oakland a bad offensive team? 100% they are, but it still is a good/great start, 7 innings 3 hits is great, especially from your #4/#5 starter..his start against KC, it was very solid..kept the team in the game, did what he could, offensive couldnt help him out though..I'd take Phil Coke over any pitcher on the Yankees aside from Sabathia (obviously) that is starting for them right now

To each their own though..I hate when my pitchers don't do well, but if a 4.5 ERA is good enough for you, thats great

What are you showing me? I love the flawed chart..I'm talking about Starters ERA, not team ERA..i'm aware the Yankees have a solid bullpen

http://espn.go.com/mlb/stats/team/_/stat/pitching/split/127/league/al

Is that what you were looking for? 5.56 team ERA for starters and its going up..sure teams start off slow..I don't expect the KC or Cleveland to be that high on the list and I don't expect others to be as low on the list..but the Yankees have 1 quality pitcher on their staff right now..

talk about cringe worthy with that lineup the kittens are putting out I would be worried they could not overcome the issues they have

Its not cringeworthy at all, its not great, some days its not good (i'm talking about the days where Leyland for some reason plays all the bench players on a Sunday; now that is cringeworthy, or Don Kelly hitting 3rd, thats one of the most cringeworthy thing i've ever seen in my life)

Teams/players start off slow, we can both acknowledge that, which is then the time to look at track records..if CC got lit up in April, i'd still expect him to finish the year with 17-20 wins, and an ERA between 3.2-3.4..Peralta could be hitting .400 at the end of April (hypothetical of course) but i'd still expect him to finish the season at .240-.270 with 75-80 RBIs..

I don't know what your trying to prove here though..going completely off point for no reason

[Ground Support]

I really hate accepting offers on ebay and having to wait 3-4-5 days to be paid..

[gladdyontherise]

Same here..makes no sense to me

[Ground Support]

lol

[jratliff70]

When you first start selling on ebay, do they have a waiting period before they pay you?

[gladdyontherise]

wheeler, tonight is a night where the Tigers have a cringeworthy offense, i'll give you that..Don Kelly hitting 6th is always a reason to cringe..that and when he plays center field, thats quite cringeworthy..

[jratliff70]

The Bird was my first item I've sold on there. Also have the Robert Meachem mini helmet for sale on there.

[ac-n-mike]

no.. they are just rude and dont pay fast enough LOL

[Ground Support]

No, they pay you first.. They have 7 days to pay you... Or you relist it..

45 was a decent deal on the bird. Don't think you lost out on a lot of $$$. I bet would have a tough time gettin $60 for it...

I don't ship anything until I get paid for it.. Bottom line.. 397 Feedback now, 1 negative... My 1 negative is such B/S too.. I sold the guy a Jordan.. He pays by echeck. PM's me asking if I sent yet, and I told him no the check didn't clear...

The Check BOUNCED. So I sold it to ewilkens instead, and told the guy he lost out.. We both agree to cancel the trade. But 2 minutes before he agreed to cancel, he left a negative feedback.. I didn't catch it.. I was working 7 days a week at the time.. 30 days past, I caught it and realized I was screwed.. Nothing can be done to get it removed...

However, its been a year now so its gone anyways..

[ac-n-mike]

got $140.. but the guy sent me a GIFT.. and paypal wot allow it.. so I refunded it

so now I am awaiting him to resend it so i have $1500 raised for the MS Ride tomorrow !!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
