Ditto Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I know we were getting hard up, but I was still against giving this guy another shot. Then he goes out and pitches a hell of a game. I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njsmalls Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I still don't want him to start another game. This was probably a fluke. Like when the Yankees got Al Leiter in 2005 and he pitched one great game against the Red Sox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like when the Yankees got Al Leiter in 2005 and he pitched one great game against the Red Sox. i was thinking of that exact same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditto Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 What's the alternative right now. If the umps don't give Geise the low ones, he's useless in this league. The same with Rasner if he can't hit the corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virginia Giant Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Sydney pitched well for us in his limited time. He's a competent pitcher, the big problem is keeping his head on straight. This is where Tore's knack for keeping people happy would have paid off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MakeMeSomeFoodHo Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 ponson is better than any other option the yankees have internally....and its not even close. Ponson >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Rasner, Igawa, Giese, Kennedy, Karstens, Marquez, McCutchen(well, we shall see about him, he threw an incredible game in second start for AAA this week, but he is still not ready), Horne ect. Make no mistake about it, he IS the Yankees 4th starter right now and its righfully so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lubeck Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 He had another good game today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MakeMeSomeFoodHo Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 He had another good game today.thats because he is a good pitcher. There is a reason why teams keep signing him....he's been a head case, but he has a great arm and good stuff and has had success in the majors. I really dont see how anyone can argue that he doesnt belong in the yankees rotation for the remainder of the seaosn. Wang and Hughes wont be back until september if they even come back this year, he is by far, their best option to fill out the back of the rotation. Is he great? No...but he is decent and better than most teams number 4/5 starter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
