Yankees' bats are overrated in the postseason. Ace pitchers are always able to silence them.

And Cliff Lee is just absolutely amazing.

Yankees lose! Yankees lose! Yankees lose!

Ahh that felt good. It's kind of annoying when the majority of your friends are yankees fans and they put up the Yankees win' signature after every big win lol.

was too tired to watch live (1am here) but good to see - replay isnt until 4.30pm, but should be fun to watch

Quoted from an espn article:

Following Lee will be young right-hander Tommy Hunter, who lasted just four innings in his postseason debut in Game 4 of the ALDS. Yet, the Rangers might be more confident in what Hunter will give them than the Yankees can be in mysterious, enigmatic starter A.J. Burnett.
In a simulated game Wednesday, Burnett's first pitch sailed over the catcher's head. Then he hit two batters, guys on his own team. When asked prior to Game 3 if he would consider starting CC Sabathia on short rest, Yankees manager Joe Girardi simply said, "We're on rotation."
After the game, asked if Burnett will still start, Girardi said "yes."

If you are a Yankees fan, you CANNOT feel good about heading into game 4. If Girardi doesn't turn to CC with short rest in game 4, I think he's going to really regret it. If a game 7 happens, do you want your best pitcher CC on short rest or Andy Pettite going up against that monster?

Girardi is a fool not to get 3 games out of CC in this series. I still think we see CC game 4 !

Lee made the Yankees Lineup look horrible, I just want a game 7, can be very interesting if the Yankees make the right adjustments against Lee, but if they don't and Lee kills them again, there's no way he is going to be playing for another team in MLB next year other than the Yanks.
