2012 Official NEW YORK YANKEES THREAD.

[gladdyontherise]

yet somehow A-Rod still went 0 for 4 with 2 strikeouts

He did that after the game was postponed and he was not in the starting lineup? Impressive!

Sounds like a lot of bitterness here. The Tigers had the best pitching coming into the postseason and are showing why.

Also, the pitching AFTER Verlander is very good. Doug Fister is very good, Max Scherzer is very good, and so is Anibal Sanchez. (Granted the Yankees offense is well....very bad right now), and you can't get 'destroyed' if the other team isn't scoring much.

Actually the Braves and the Reds Had the best pitching down the stretch. The Nats, Reds, A's, Braves, Giants and Cardinals all had better pitching stats for the whole year. But, you are going to the series so that's all that matters.....Good luck! Hopefully I'll be seeing you in detroit....

Fair, I meant starting pitching, but that's my mistake for not making that clear. I'm sure it's arguable there, but watching Verlander, Scherzer, Fister and Sanchez, they've all been on a roll for a while now.

Yanks down 2-0, some bad defense hurts CC in the 3rd.

I hope there is an overhaul and the yankees bring in good club guys like they did with Tino Martnez,Paul O Neil,Scott brosius and such.What a steal Delmon Young was for Detroit.

Congrats to the Tigers,just got home from work,saw the final on my Iphone and am glad I didn't have to watch the carnage.Well Detroit go on and win the World Series,at least that way I can say the Yankees lost to the eventual champions,anything short of a Tigers series win and their season won't be that much better than the Yankees,as neither will have the grand prize.

[spuds1961]

Still not impressed by the Tigers,is 2 runs the best they can do against 7 different pitchers,good luck in the world series Tigers that is if you get there,the national league champions will destroy either of these teams

Said this on 10/17,didn't realize how true a statement it was,The Tigers weren't destroyed but at the same time a sweep is a sweep.

Would have rather had the Yanks beat the Tigers

Looks like we need a new catcher since Russel Martin is pending a deal with the Pirates.

No big loss on Martin. They have brought back Kuroda, Andy and now it looks like Mo will be back as well so they should be solid for next year.
