Hands off, son, Cubs are getting Epstein and Francona.

**Akiyama** · 2011-09-30 01:42

Fuck the Cubs. You bitches should've been smart and let Mark Cuban buy the team, but NAW. That'd be too hip.

I DO NOT WANT FREDIOT ANYMORE. OH GOD. He's so awful.

GREINKE XFIP SO GOOD

Francona's officially been canned. The best thing I've heard about it is, "An unlikeable team got a very likeable manager fired."

it'll be interesting to see how rays rookie Moore does in his 2nd career start...ESPN has him ranked as the top pitching prospect

His first career start was last week or perhaps the week before at Yankee stadium. 6 scoreless innings, 11 strikeouts...

Might buy this shirt, or at the very least send one to my family who are all Yankees fans.

Did the Yankees have all their starters in? Still impressive.

CJ has been really good against the Rays though, they haven't been able to hit him.

**Cail** · 2011-09-30 11:53

This was the Yankees line up in that game:

Jeter
Nunez
Tex
Swisher
Jones
Montero
Posada
Laird
Golston

Moore's line, 5ip 4h 0r 1bb 11so 59/84 strikes, 14/20 first pitch strikes

**Valisk** · 2011-09-30 11:59

No Cano or Granderson, but either way, that's a tough place to pitch as your first start. Kid has some major potential. I just hope the Ranger bats stay on fire throughout the entire post season.

**Olo401** · 2011-09-30 12:34

It seems the real reason behind Tito's dismissal has been revealed:

If they fire Tito then he'll have a job in a matter of hours. He managed some pretty piss poor Phillies teams, but he's a great manager.

**Trichocyst** · 2011-09-30 13:06

I need to change my profile to reflect more Phillies pride, especially after seeing things like this:

Wow. They had the kid of the fireman that died earlier this year.. throw out the first pitch. What a moment :<

Demosthenes11 · 2011-09-30 16:05

that moment should have been a wakeup call for the kid not to be a dallas sports fan

he missed his chance

**Drunkenmonk** · 2011-09-30 16:32

**Man0warr** · 2011-09-30 16:40
