Joe Saunders goes for the Angels. Underrated or prime for the taking? Time will tell
by LloydtheBarber at 10/17/2009 11:54:50 PM
Go Yanks!....nah, just kidding. Choke AJ, choke.

Hey folks, the Yankees are taking the field. There's Burnett's personal catcher Jose Molina heading behind the plate. LOLineups!

you son of a bitch
by HumandChuck
hi aj
by HumandChuck
Have they always been doing the country thing??
by dlbrows
On the international broadcast they do

Chone Figgins, free agent and post season flop leads off for the Angels
by LloydtheBarber at 10/17/2009 11:57:49 PM
if they were expecting more from aj, they didn't do their homework
by HumandChuck
Holy shit - is it true? Are the Melonheads in the house?
by BlueJayHunter
First pitch is a strike to Figgins! We're under way!
by LloydtheBarber at 10/17/2009 11:58:17 PM
It's very late, but I can't pass up on an hour or two of prime AJ hatefest.
by dragonzigg
You'll get no AJ hate from me. Damn if I love a man
by LloydtheBarber at 10/17/2009 11:58:41 PM
@HumandChuck did well enough in first playoff start. Though that Twins lineup.... ew.
by dlbrows
A.J. is a lot of fun to watch, he's stuff is as good as it gets
by LloydtheBarber at 10/17/2009 11:58:58 PM
Figgins fouls off a couple fastball, 1-2 count
by LloydtheBarber at 10/17/2009 11:59:07 PM
I want to hate him, but I would love to have him back
by HumandChuck
HAMMER OF DOOM! Burnett sits Figgins down with his nasty, nasty curveball. Best in baseball. One down.
by LloydtheBarber at 10/17/2009 11:59:51 PM
i have a rather sad crush on him
by HumandChuck
plus he looks cute with his head shaved now. Like a stronger, more volatile, Justin Timberlake.
by dlbrows
@LloydtheBarber Don't worry, I hate AJ in the same way as I hate the Yanks, with unlimited venom but grudging admiration.
by dragonzigg
First pitch is a pin straight fastball to Abreu. He, being Bobby Abreu, takes it.
by LloydtheBarber at 10/18/2009 12:00:27 AM
zaun called him george again
by HumandChuck
and basically said george can't handle AJ's stuff

fastball has a lot of movement so far.
by dlbrows
Abreu hits a looping 0-2 liner to Damon in left. He makes an adventurous catch but records the out either way. 2 down with Hunter coming up
by LloydtheBarber at 10/18/2009 12:01:56 AM
What channel is the game on? Abc or what
by Wondering yankee
Game is on Fox in the states and Sportsnet in Canada. Well, FOX in Canada also
by LloydtheBarber at 10/18/2009 12:02:16 AM
pin straight? really? looked like it was off the plate and came in.
by dlbrows
First pitch looked straight to me. The next few have had the "late life" we look for
by LloydtheBarber at 10/18/2009 12:02:41 AM
Johnny Damon, you are an adventure.
by dlbrows
I want a breakdown!!!! damn it!!!! we broke him in and now the yankees get to ride him
by HumandChuck
ON his day, if he's going good AJ can take apart any lineup.
