Worst call I've ever seen. If Gleyber didn't walk anyway, I would have thrown my laptop through my TV:

Happ wasn't happy:
In his postgame news conference, an evidently frustrated Happ said he was informed that he would be going into the game after a particular batter, but he refused to expand and referred all strategy questions to the Yankees' skipper. "I'll let Aaron talk about that" was Happ's go-to answer any time he was asked about his usage Tuesday.
Happ did say that though he would have preferred to start Game 2, he would not use the unfamiliar situation of coming in after Garcia as an excuse for his poor performance. Happ gave up four earned runs on six hits over 2⅔ innings pitched and was tagged with the loss.
"I've been here for two years. And if I've made an excuse for my performance in the last two years, you know, anybody can speak up?" Happ said. "I just think that hasn't happened. I just didn't perform. I'm frustrated that I didn't. I don't have an answer for it. And I'm not going to make an excuse now for why that happened.
"This is important. I want to repeat. When I'm in there, you got 100 percent of me. So I gave it what I had. I wasn't worried about when I was coming in at the time. I wasn't. I was trying to focus and trying to execute. [The Yankees] know how I felt about it. But ultimately, I pitch when I pitch. There was no hesitation and no dwelling on what was going on. I was focused and trying to perform. I wish I would have done a better job."
Was the lefty put in a position to succeed in Game 2 of the ALDS?
"That's not a question for me to answer," Happ said. "Again, when I'm out there, I'm trying to do the best I can. That's what I tried to do tonight."

Yea this game just leaves a sour taste in my mouth. Yea, I'm pretty pissed. Don't you ever sleep anthony? Usually fall asleep about 4am, but this game has me a bit wired I guess lol. Least there's no off day layoff and its back to another one tomorrow. I still can't believe they try pulling a hoodini with 5th starter J.A. Happ. |

No one will even care because we won the series! |

I'm hoping Boone gets fired after the season. My head is starting to get a little soft from banging my head against the wall so many times this year.

I almost miss Girardi, almost. But seriously, Boone does some stupid stuff. Well said in the video btw. Hopefully this doesn't come back an bite us, certainly doesn't help momentum. |

For tonight’s game, I hope they start Chapman and then bring Tanaka in from the bullpen. Let’s make all the starters relievers. That’ll frustrate the Rays. Or, let’s make all pitchers position players. No way Tampa can prepare for that move.

I really can't believe they would have blown 2 starters in one game like this. But I doubt Deivi will be available for his full allotment of pitches in Game 4 after 27 pitches tonight. Really stupid move. It seems so simple to just play your best guys and stay out of the way, you know, like Torre used to do. |
