Joe Smith was dealing but now he's replaced by Pressly of the 27.00 ERA to face Gardner.

dealing? he was replaced after walking a batter

Gary Sanchez strikes out after a 10-pitch AB.

On to the bottom of the 11th, and I've had enough. Five hour game.

Cashman signed Happ. 

[Angelsjunky]

Well, that was good.

F*ck the Yankees.

To elaborate... in case you missed it.

In the top of the 10th with two outs, Gary Sanchez swung and missed at what should have been strike 3.  He tried to plead to the umpire that he fouled it off and the ump bought it.  It was an AJ PIerz;ynski move.  Then... he took a called 3rd strike next and complained about it all the way until the bottom of the 10th when he took his spot behind the plate. 

The Carlos Correa homerun was perfect justice.

Gary Sanchez is a POS, of the AJ Pierzynski variety.

Of course if the Yankees were to just give him to us for a low level prospect you would no longer call him a POS.

That’s a pretty good assumption since I respect you and your points of view on just about everything.

Great. I've been meaning to talk to you about a business proposition.  You like clean clothes?

No, I take care of those.

Mutual funds then?

Long distance calling cards should be a booming industry in the future.

I don't think Sanchez is a POS. Ryan Braun is though.

Sanchez sure made himself look like a POS last night.

I agree.

He really reminds me of AJ Pierzynski.

AJ was doing "color" for one of the play-off games and I don't remember the exact details, but a player came up to bat that was struggling.  He took a pitch that came close to hitting him.  AJ said something to the effect of "if I'm him, that balls hitting me some how."  Typical AJ. 

POS for sure.

Yeah well he shouldn’t talk sh*t about someone he doesn’t know personally. The home plate umpire working a ALCS game blew two calls in succession. That’s disturbing. 

Gary Sanchez is a competitor. He’s also very charitable with his time and money. Last season my son who is a student at Yale University was an invited guest along with a few other Ivy leaguers. They were separated in four groups and each assigned a player to tour the dugout and clubhouse before they all joined together for a hosted lunch. My son’s group was with Gary Sanchez. He was very accommodating with his time and was very respectful to the students. He was the only player out of the four that joined everyone for lunch. The rest of the players had other obligations. Gary Sanchez asked the students if they needed tickets for the game later that evening. Most of the students didn’t have any so he then gave them his game suite. POS? No way!

That second call was a makeup call for the mistake. 

Thats a cool story about Gary Sanchez and your son though. It’s always nice to hear about players doing positive things for others. Also congrats on having a son that goes to Yale. I walked that campus a couple years back and it’s beautiful. Must be a smart kid.
