Twins-Yanks Open Thread: Orlando Cabrera Refuses to Go Away
Baseball October 7th. 2009, 6:10pm
Undervalued shortstop Orlando Cabrera has somehow been traded five times. His last pitstop prior to coming to the Twins was Oakland, a place where apparently everyone spends a few months to catch some needed rest before jumping into an exciting playoff run.
He likes October. He’s been hot over the last 15 games or so, and last night smacked a two-run shot in the seventh to give his team the lead.
Tonight, he’s in the Bronx. Again. Trust me, Yankee fans don’t want to see this guy. He was a nightmare in the 2004 ALCS* and again in 2005 as a member of the Angels.
Clutch hitting, great defense and a general knack for doing something important late in games. This is what he does.
Let’s just hope he goes into a five-game skid.
Stay cottonmouthed, my friends.
*Always forget, Yankee fans, always forget.

2004 never happened, Hernia.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:15 pm
this thread is packed. Everyone must love the Yankees.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:15 pm
Needs more Gargamel.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:17 pm
Chip Caray is announcing the Yankee series?
I won’t be watching this.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:17 pm
jax’s flesh beard on sons of anarchy is the stuff legends are made of.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:18 pm
is morneau hurt
October 7th, 2009 at 6:18 pm
That show is fucking awesome. This season has started off really well.
/I didn’t get at all that George Lopez joke.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
if you can suspend your belief real it is awesome. opie is gonna turn on jax, his dad will probably get killed and jax will tell opie who killed his old lady(probably while opie is kicking the shit out of him.) and clay will be fucked hard.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
all that will happen after the sons find out peggy bundy was raped and pwn the aryans
October 7th, 2009 at 6:25 pm
No one said it was realistic.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:27 pm
GSG, did you see the asterisk? Definitely never happened.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:27 pm
Any show that has Henry Rollins getting his ass kicked by Jax is not realistic. Opie beating up fucking Bam Bam Bigelow was sort of dumb, also.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:27 pm
i didnt say it wasnt awesome. i can suspend my beliefs
October 7th, 2009 at 6:28 pm
I like how the police chief just stood around and watched as the two groups fought though. It’s going to suck when they kill him off.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:29 pm
word. i just saw that scene. rollins would grab jax by his greasy long ass hair and make him pay for not having the urge to herbal
October 7th, 2009 at 6:29 pm
Caray already painful. Need Sam the Eagle to replace him.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:30 pm
I think Darling is worse than Caray. Darling can barely put a sentence together.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:31 pm
Isn’t it based on Hamlet?
October 7th, 2009 at 6:32 pm
Can we get Peter Pascarelli in there?
October 7th, 2009 at 6:32 pm
98 percent of everything is based on Shakespeare. How I Met Your Mother is inspired by Othello.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:33 pm
I love these early ds games*. I remember skipping school because the astros would get their asses beat by the braves before school got out
*fuckin idiotic
October 7th, 2009 at 6:34 pm
yea, it says it’s loosely based off of it.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:34 pm
whooooo look at the smart person with fancy readin book smarts!
/the wiki page for it says it is.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:35 pm
Is How I Met Your Mother really that good? Can’t bring myself to watch it.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
I can’t tell if you’re being serious or joking.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
so sons and himym is 98% of everything evar? no one has ever had an original thought that wasnt based off of shakespear? i admire your admiration for shakespear but i think your wrong.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:36 pm
I think HIMYM is overrated. I still watch it regularly though.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
Jax in real life has a really heavy English accent
October 7th, 2009 at 6:37 pm
Big Bang Theory >>>>> HIMYM
October 7th, 2009 at 6:38 pm
watch green street hooligans.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:38 pm
GROWN MEN SHOULD NEVER WEAR FOAM FINGERS! AND SIT DOWN!
October 7th, 2009 at 6:39 pm
Wanna knock the character of Jax down a peg? He was in the show “Queer as Folk”.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:39 pm
Your sarcasm detector’s low on juice.
He used his real accent in Undeclared and was kinda good in Cold Mountain. He was also in a shitty Katie Holmes movie where he disappeared then came back and was uber creepy.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
Holy crap! Jax is Lloyd?!
October 7th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
I support this. Other than Alec Baldwin, Jim Parsons is currently giving the best male comedic performance on TV. Can’t believe he’s 36, either.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
Jax looks like he’d be related to the blonde guy on House.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
They also say grown men shouldnt wear jerseys but i have 2 astros jerseys. Fuck you!*
*not YOU, them or everyone.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:40 pm
Never saw Undeclared. Might have to put that in the Queue
October 7th, 2009 at 6:41 pm
your face is low on juice!
/a /sarcasm tag works wonders
October 7th, 2009 at 6:43 pm
I really liked it. It’s not as good as Freaks & Geeks and it’s not laugh-out-loud funny, but it’s really true to the college experience. A lot of people don’t like it, though, so take my opinion for what’s it worth. Not much.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:43 pm
I wear jerseys. Just grown men should never ask for autographs, wear foam fingers, wear band tshirts at concerts, or bring a glove to a baseball game.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:44 pm
Ha!
October 7th, 2009 at 6:45 pm
I know, this threw me through a loop, too.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:45 pm
I disagree (while being a big, big fan of both). Sheldon is by far the best character on either show, but I like the entire ensemble on HIMYM while I hardly ever laugh at anyone but Penny and Sheldon on Big Bang.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:45 pm
I still have no idea why the guy from “Two and a Half Men” got the nod for Best Supporting Actor.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:47 pm
Don Draper is a victory.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:47 pm
To each his own. I just rarely laugh when I watched HIMYM.
Then again I’m in the “Always Sunny” camp.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:47 pm
He owns that character.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:48 pm
Charlie might be my favorite character in all of TV.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
I burn he trash and it flies up into space and makes stars.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:49 pm
What is this crap on the right? Get that shit out of here.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:50 pm
for nyone who missed VH1’s Anvil!: the story of Avnil i suggest you watch it. It is the best doc i have seen in a while.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:50 pm
You don’t want to start your own zoo, Hernia?
October 7th, 2009 at 6:50 pm
Actually, Shakespeare stole 98% of his plots, so it just goes to show that there’s only so many plots available to writers.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:50 pm
Larry David owns his more.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:51 pm
Yeah, it’s good, reminded me of Overnight, about the douchebag who made Boondock Saints. His name was Duffy (really).
October 7th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
That doesn’t sound right, but I don’t know enough about stars to dispute it.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
charlie is the funniest dude on television
October 7th, 2009 at 6:52 pm
Eh, he’s playing himself, but I’ll give that to you. But Parsons is a theater actor playing a science geek with full-blown (but unannounced) Asperger’s. The degree of difficulty is higher.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:53 pm
Thanks Darling, I had no idea that a Game One playoff game was huge to the Yankees too.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:55 pm
ENOUGH WITH GARDENHIRE USING THE TERM BASEBALL PLAYERS. I’ve heard that quote about 100 times today.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:56 pm
bsanders you can be weird and really really smart and not have aspergers.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:56 pm
Also, Chip, Girardi wanted #25, what he had as a player, but Giambi had it. So he didn’t really care.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
why the fuck is a marching band playing outside
October 7th, 2009 at 6:58 pm
Yea but he has all the socializing problems as someone with Aspergers.
October 7th, 2009 at 6:58 pm
Believe me, I know, but that guy couldn’t display more traits of it. Parsons has said this in several interviews. He fits the description of it to a T.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:00 pm
anyone ever see or listen to ARNEZ J? hes a comedian and hes coming to houston tomorrow night and im wondering if hes any good?
October 7th, 2009 at 7:04 pm

Mauer once punched a hole in a cow just to see who was coming up the road.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:07 pm
Nice brisk jog to get that ball, too.
About fucking time.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:08 pm

chip is jubilant after that clutch homerun from captain clutch clutchity clutch clutch. so much for being impartial
October 7th, 2009 at 7:16 pm
I think Chip Carey studied Thom Brenneman tapes before the post-season.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:17 pm
i missed a lot of shit today. how soon after his first 2 drop game (this sunday) until TBL takes back calling Braylon a star/gamebreaker/whatever other stupid shit?
October 7th, 2009 at 7:18 pm
i would come back just for one comment and start my time all over

while clown may enjoy sex with men he is still a stand up guy and wont do that.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
Now he sits back down.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:21 pm
He can’t comment because of a). The ban and b). you try typing with a dick in your mouth, a dick in each hand and a dick in the butt.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:22 pm
If Brian Duensing tells his grandkids he struck out A-Rod swinging in a playoff game, are they impressed? I say no

HE’S CLUTCH, DAMMIT!
A-rod, meanwhile, continues to blow in the postseason.
Sabathia for 6, hughes for 2, rivera for one.

who the hell is brendan harris?
October 7th, 2009 at 7:27 pm
TBL – we need the lead first.
There’s no such thing as clutch. There is such a thing as choking, though.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:28 pm
JETER WILL NOT PASS ROSE. This announcing team is worse than anything they can throw together on YES.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:28 pm
no one in baseball would make that play? really? really?
darling is fcking awfuller than caray
October 7th, 2009 at 7:28 pm
if Jeter is clutch, why doesn’t he try that hard/perform that well all of the time? if he can turn it on, why is it ever off?
/there is not clutch.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:30 pm
I’m not watching the game, but why is a home run in the third inning clutch?
October 7th, 2009 at 7:30 pm
furiously tries to find a website that would have something like that.
shatner: try “My Pictures” on your “c” drive, or your Facebook page
October 7th, 2009 at 7:30 pm
Exactly. Why turn it off if you can do it all the time? Why coast?
October 7th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
I’m not watching the game, but why is a home run in the third inning clutch?
Because “Jetes”, the Human Stain, hit it
/I’d love someone to go Tony Conigliaro on that douchebag
October 7th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
What ever happened to Frank TV? I could really go for one of those commercials about now.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
Because the pitcher just happens to be MORE clutch all those other times. Duh.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:31 pm
To be fair, that photo was for a Childrens Charity.
/don’t bother. I’m throwing myself out.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:32 pm
They traded them in for The George Lopez Show.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:33 pm
Usually like Darling on SNY but he’s screwed with Caray.
He does a great job with Keith in the regular season.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:33 pm
Because “Jetes”, the Human Stain, hit it
please please please tell me this is a Philip Roth reference, because it’s perfect

Clutch hit by Swish.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:42 pm
He was safe anyways.
That Nick Swisher is so clutch
October 7th, 2009 at 7:43 pm
hes the quiet one
October 7th, 2009 at 7:45 pm
Swisher brought a fun atmosphere back to the clubhouse. He’s a partier that’s just having fun out there. Cashman threatened Kenny Williams with nude photos of him having sex with Clown to force him to trade Swish for Wilson Betemit.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
Cano steered an extra 9 feet from Mauer. Surprised he reached the plate with his hand.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
You left out “scrappy”, GSG.
October 7th, 2009 at 7:46 pm
Sorry. It’s my first day.

October 7th, 2009 at 8:02 pm
funny how TBL (and others) despise all the media infatuation with Favre (who holds almost all NFL QB records), but when Jeter gets the same attention with with his 2,800 hits and average SS play, they can’t get enough of it
October 7th, 2009 at 8:03 pm
A French/Somalian body odor war would makes Saddam’s supposed WMD’s look like bottle rockets and black cats on the 4th of July
October 7th, 2009 at 8:04 pm
AROD in the clutch!
October 7th, 2009 at 8:05 pm
Did you see how Jeter clutch Jeter was scoring that run off the bat of the clutchless Arod? So damn clutch.

Jesus fucking Christ
October 7th, 2009 at 8:09 pm

Average jpq? Your Boston boner shines brightly.
Plus, Jeter didn’t lose a playoff game to Michael Vick at home.
HOWEVER, I hear you on Caray’s lovefest tonight. He’s overdoing it on your boy Jeter and its ugly.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:18 pm
woot.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:20 pm
average ss play would be a compliment to Jeter. Defensively anyways.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:20 pm
The jeter love is horifying, JPQ. Also, I hate the Favre love and think they overdo it with Jeter all the time, and I’m one of the biggest yankee homers here.
You should try living on LI having to hear about it on WFAN all the time.
…Scratch that.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:21 pm
Jeter’s been a lot better this year defensively than in years past. He doesn’t deserve the Gold Glove, but he’s not like the last two/three years.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:22 pm
I swear to God, I just noticed that someone put a “Clutch” stat column on Jeters graph on FanGraphs.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:23 pm
Plus, Jeter didn’t lose a playoff game to Michael Vick at home.
hernia: you got me there. Jetes only lost a Game 7 at home after being up 3-0 and 1 out from sweeping.
/bloody sock’d
October 7th, 2009 at 8:24 pm
No one does it like Michael Kay. I don’t think any Yankee fan likes listening to that.

This whole Postseason.TV thing is annoying as all hell. I just want to watch the normal feed of the game, I don’t want to choose one of 10 fucking cameras where I see no information on count, outs, score, replays, anything. It’s not even remotely helpful.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:26 pm
I say about time GSG
October 7th, 2009 at 8:27 pm
Derek Jeter and his 33.4 runs below average since 2002 sure are great.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:29 pm
@jpq: That was a great Boston team with far superior pitching. Pedro and Curt from the car.
Jeter willed them to be competitive in that series.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:29 pm
Fetch, who are you arguing with?
October 7th, 2009 at 8:31 pm
Yanks had Kevin Brown, Javier Vazquez and Estaban Loeiza. Against Pedro and Fat Ass

But yea, we lost. It’s not like we don’t compete every year or something.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:33 pm
Fetch, who are you arguing with?
shatner: fetch knows my hatred of Jeter has no analytical analysis. Just the “eyeball test”. He’s backing it up w/ the Bill James Bible

He’s like the crazy old uncle at the dinner party who sits at the end of the table and yells to himself.

you guys have any numbers left to give out, or are they all retired? Looking forward to the Leyritz and Brosius monument ceremonies
October 7th, 2009 at 8:40 pm
No, but he has got a truck deserving of a place there.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:41 pm
It’s not like we’re retiring scrubs numbers, here, JPQ. You could have an argument if we retired, say, Ruben Seirra or Paul O’Neill’s number.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:43 pm
I am, however, looking forward to the retirement of Hideki Irabu’s number.

It’s not like we’re retiring scrubs numbers, here, JPQ. You could have an argument if we retired, say, Ruben Seirra or Paul O’Neill’s number.
shatner: I know, I’m just kidding the Yankees over their overinflated self-importance

Judging by my comments I pretty much added to that.

I don’t even think Jeter can make Kelsey Grammer’s new show funny.
October 7th, 2009 at 8:48 pm
How could you give $12 million to Hideki Irabu?!?

Ron Darling sounds EXACTLY like James Woods.
Take a listen…

It’s fucking awful. He fucking walks and they just acted like he cured cancer.

Why the hell did you trade Jay Buhner!? He had over 30 home runs and 100 RBIs! You don’t know what the hell you’re doing!

I’m so mad we gave Tex away for fucking Casey Kotchman. Fuck that’s awful. Especially after we traded so much to the Rangers to get him.

My favorite Frank Costanza line is when he’s not even on the set:
“Jerry, it’s Frank Costanza. Mr. Steinbrenner is here, George is dead, call me back!”
or
“This…is Frank Costanza. We’re moving in to Del Boca Vista lock, stock and barrel. We’re gonna be at the pool. We’re gonna be at the breakfast bar. You can’t tell me what to do!”
October 7th, 2009 at 9:27 pm
Dunno, possibly my favorite Frank Costanza moment is in the police station where Elaine says she’ll drop him like a sack of dirt. The outtakes are hilarious from that, too.

I met Hank Steinbrenner once in Tampa. One of my best college buddies (like 3-4 years older than me) and Hank were best friends, and my buddy worked for George in Tampa.
Went to Tampa Bay Downs (Hank ran it then) and the Oyster Shanty and had literally 10 pitchers of beer and 30 dozen oysters between the 3 of us.
Hank was really cool then (but it was also like 20 some years ago

Tabasco, pepper and lemon oyster guy JPQ? Or like a little vodka? Or straight up?
I don’t like that there aren’t oyster bars anywhere in the Midwest. Disappointing.
October 7th, 2009 at 9:30 pm
“You want a piece of me?? YOUUU GOTTTT IIIIIIIIIIITTTT!”
October 7th, 2009 at 9:33 pm
What time was first pitch in this Yankees game? Can they drag it out until like 11:30?

SC: tabasco and horseradish is my fave. I never ate so many oysters in my life. They had “Sad Hour”, so you bring all the losing tickets in and the oysters were like $.10/each (again, think like 1986). We had to have eaten 300 at least.

OMG, If you are an insomniac, listening to these two is the cure you’ve been looking for.
And I’m a fan of Darling on Met telecasts.
