YANKEES LEFT DAZED & CONFUSED IN MOTOWN

The Yankees stink, what else can I really say about it?  I know the Tigers are good, but there is no reason why the Yankees can't hit Doug Fister. 

Our pitching was flat today, the hitting was flat and we look off balance and other than Kevin Youkilis hitting a 2 run homer and Brennan Boesch smashing into the wall to make a terrific catch in front of his old club... There wasn't a decent highlight to speak of in Yankeeland.

Eduardo Nunez got hurt today and while not serious (a bicep bruise, read HERE), it's still a blow. I like Jayson Nix but he's third string at this point and we just can't depend on having this group of misfits in our field. We need our stars, we're the Yankees and this scotch taped lineup just ain't cutting it. We don't look like the Yankees. We're not playing like the Yankees. There's no offense, the Yanks need to start playing together. They need to get in sync... Bottom line... they need to start winning.

 

 Ivan Nova didn't pitch well (4.2 IP, 5 H, 4 R, 5 K). Boone Logan (0.1 IP, 1 H, 1 R) and Shawn Kelley didn't pitch well (2 IP, 3 H, 3 R). What do you make of that? To me, I think we need to seriously figure out what to do with Nova... He ain't super... He's fair. I'm tired of fair and so are you.

Boone Logan? Come on. He's a lefty specialist who can't get out lefties. Disgraceful.  Joe Girardi looked like he was nervous all day. Sweaty, thinking too hard and most of all embarrassed. We didn't look good at all.

Final Score today: Tigers 8 - Yankees 3.

Yanks need to get it together... We don't look like a franchise team... We look like amateurs. When the hell did this happen?
