Hey, if his goal is to throw many mediocre fastballs
speaking as a fan of a team potentially competing with the Yankees for a playoff spot, I am strongly in favor of this goal.

Easy there, Godzilla.
He’ll throw you something easier the next time around.

How much longer do we have to watch this Morrow shit?
Cmon, this guy can’t even get to the fifth inning
FUCK
Sure as hell seems like Joba’s been getting that pitch
This is all Johjimas Fault
Rob Johnson would never let this happen He would make Morrow throw more strikes
I've been looking at Johjima's glovework
And it seems like he’s learning to frame the pitches a little better.
My friends gave me some videos and yes , he did look awfully counterproductive in catching pitches, buthe’s looking pretty good in that department.
At least so far
and for tonight.
You guys have watched him longer, has he improved?
Nice catch Johjima.
Morrow has such good control, usually.
I have no idea why this is happening.

Are you watching the game? I can't possibly say he's pitching okay when
half his pitches this inning have been 2 feet out of the zone

I understand, but he still has dreadful command. He's gotten great results on balls

Define awful
it sounds like he can’t hit the broad side of the barn.

He looks amped up to you? He has the same emotionless look on his face every time

especially the one that almost ended up in Melky Cabrera’s face.

I'll be honest.
I posted that comment expecting him to pop out.
It’s true – the fact that he walks really is valuable for our club. The team’s patience at the plate, on a whole, isn’t nearly as unbearable as it was last season.
Joba's sucking is all part of his plan to pace himself.
He needs to get to a certain number of innings, so some of them will just have to suck.

Yo cats, I have a random and totally desperate question:
If I’m flying from the U.S. to Montreal (i.e. it’s international, but only sorta), with a layover elsewhere in the U.S. (so it’s not direct), how early do I need to arrive at the airport? Is one hour enough? Two hours? If I get this wrong I don’t get a vacation.
Oh, and Ronny Cedeno WTF??
I don't know how to stop.
With flying, always err on the side of caution - two hours should be OK.
Typically two hours is super safe for domestics, should be just about right for internationals
by seattlebruin on Jun 30, 2009 6:56 PM PDT up reply actions
Actually, this sort of depends.
Long Beach is a ridiculously small airport. It takes me about 5 minutes to clear TSA there, and since I only pack carryon, 45 minutes before departure is fine. Las Vegas, on the other hand, back before the economy crashed, I’ve been in stupidly long lines to clear TSA, and I wanted more time than that.

I've flown multiple international itineraries in the last couple of years.
The domestic segment is just that.
You may need to show your passport before you board and get the boarding pass stamped, though. I’ve done that at the gate at the international gateway on one airline (Alaska) and at the beginning of the trip at another one where I was flying a domestic connection to the international gateway (Northwest), but I had a tight connection.
What airport are you flying out of, and at what time? That affects the answer, too.
by eponymous_coward on Jun 30, 2009 7:07 PM PDT up reply actions
O'Hare? Hmmmm.
Big airport that is ugly and full of lines and travelers, early morning = extra time.
The upside is that if you get through early, you might be able to stand by for an earlier flight. Sell your girlfriend on that.

So even though we're flying from Chicago to Montreal via Cleveland, I should still get there at 6:30 for an 8:30 flight?
Meaning we’re in the cab by 5:45AM? Just making this clear. Sorry to be dumb about it. She’s not happy right now as I’m telling her this.

If you want to shave it closer, I have, on occasion, going carryon only. I wouldn’t want to take it much past 90 minutes, though. I drop my car off at T-60 minutes at McCarran in Las Vegas, but that’s because I could go through that airport blindfolded, and I can use the first-class TSA line.

Morrow got boned today (only about 25% self-boning too)
Two of those pitches called balls were strikes to Posada, plus Woodward!
So is there a special channel that I can watch this self-boning on?
~I "write" about the Mariners. section331.com~
Can you tell us about this?
I mean, we Seattle fans always here about the wind tunnel out to right field, but we don’t know many Yankees fans to confirm this.
It's not "confirmed"
We don’t have any computer models, but there are 3 theories:
(1) According to the Yankee Brass, it has something to do with a ducting effect produced by the neighboring OLD Yankee Stadium. They think the “jet-stream” which is pushing the ball towards the outfield will be eliminated once the old Stadium is torn down.
(2) There are openings behind the stands in the outfield which allow airflow to duct through; this might exacerbate the effect of the old Yankee Stadium.
(3) The dimensions of the new Yankee Stadium are shorter in Right Field. The old Yankee Stadium’s Right Field was more convex (curved outward). To the untrained eye, the new stadium’s Right Field Wall looks the same, but it’s actually many feet shorter. The walls are also lower. The result is that a number of homeruns in the New Yankee Stadium have been found to have landed in this differential area.
Not a "problem"
But the homeruns hit in Yankee Stadium have skyrocketed noticeably.
As a result of this reputation, alot of pitchers have concerns (especially Yankee pitchers)
Funny, I hadn't heard anything about this.
You think something like this might get some ESPN airtime or something.

Gardner and Cabrera are platooning in CF
But Gardner has the tools to give the Yankee game an extra dimension.
The guy has as many steals as Jeter in half the playing time.
Is the extra dimension time travel?

You can't build extra dimensions with regular tools can you? I have hammers, some saws, a few nails (from a recent project I didn't finish).
It’s really embarrassing. Anyway. Extra dimensions! Yes, like a fourth dimension? Do you have to build them in consecutive order, because I’d like to skip right to the 6th! It’s always been my favorite.
I think part of that issue was we were going to be taking back Kei Igawa.

I love how YES stays with the game while they play 'God Bless America.' Makes me proud to live in New York.
I hope you die. I hope we BOTH die.
There are all these NYC LLers that I was unaware of.

I assume NY is the only city where this is still played at every game.

FUCKING DEFENSIVE SUBS WAK. FUCK FACE
I fucking hate you Mariners
Griffey in left makes me pine for Raul Ibanez.
Is that the light at the end of the tunnel, or the headlights of an oncoming train?
It's like saying "the sun is setting tonight".
Just because it’s happening tonight, doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen every other night as well.

What was that weird little run Kenji did towards the mound after that pitch?

I just got back-who is this Jerek Deter guy? They mentioned him on the radio.
Maybe he has some range.
Morrow had the right idea. Aim for his fat fucking asshole head.

Oh fuck me with a rusty spoon.

I blame that homerun on my being distracted by the Portland/Seattle rivalry.
Terrible mistake. Seattle shouldn’t hate Portland; all of our negative energy should be focused on New York. Fuck you, yankees. Fuck you, Alex. Fuck you, City.

After that homerun, I'm ready to refocus on Portland.
I bet they celebrate Bastille day there.

The Yankees could really stop being so unlikeable.
How hard were they trying to be douches during that home run celebration?
My point exactly. Actions like that basically make me feel completely justified in my irrational anger toward this team.
by Seattle Rodiners on Jun 30, 2009 7:45 PM PDT up reply actions
Oh I hate them.
I don’t get quite as angry though.
by Fuckmikereilly on Jun 30, 2009 7:46 PM PDT up reply actions
I know.
It’s not like they personally mock the other team or anything.

Oh hey check it out Jak has a curve ball too
and sometime’s he doesnn’t even put it in the wheelhouse. Huh.

That network is insufferable. I honestly have no idea how that many people actually like this team in America.
Does everybody feel so insecure about their lives that they have to root for the team that’s most likely to win?
