Shots Fired!
It was but a mere week ago when everything felt
like a box of fluffy ducks. Things were going so great that little Stephen Drew
almost hit for the cycle and also almost cracked a .200 average in one at bat.
Although he failed at his attempt we Yankee fans didn't care. The Yankees were
looking so great that Drew's attempt was like watching a baby learn how to
walk. They take a step or two, fall on their rear, and then we all laugh at how
cute the effort was.
Fast forward until now and the Yankees have lost one
game to the surging Blue Jays. With the loss of Pineda until September, our
season long wonderment if Tanaka is really fine, and Brian Mcann banged up
suddenly it feels like the Yankees wake up in the morning with no place to lay
their heads that doesn't hurt. It certainly does seem that way for one Jose
Bautista as he had some very pungent comments about the Blue Jays win over the
Yankees.
"We won the first game of the series. Everyone
knows what our offense is capable of doing. We've got David Price going
tomorrow. I don't think they feel good right now going home." Well dumbo
it's a good thing you have big ears. You see because you don't have to put your
head to the ground like your other teammates to hear the rumbling sounds of
momentum shifting. There is a certain intangible that cannot be created by
trading for players. It's called a winning pedigree. If you're not too familiar
with what that's like why don't you go ask the Twins.
We will treat David Price the way we treat the
Minnesota Twins. Like a predator playing with its prey. Bautista made these
comments thinking that he smelled blood and that the Blue Jays are going in for
the kill. The one thing he will learn and learn it harshly is, you don't throw
rocks at a man holding a machine gun.
Rest in peace Roddy Piper!
