Why the hell is Putkonen in again? Damn relief pitching is sucking it up again! This kid does not belong in Bigs. It figures our bats start to warm up for second game in a row and our pitching takes a shit.

Horrible loss (aren't they all horrible?) This one definatley falls on pitching (aren't I Mr Obvious!). We need to get this bullpen on the right track now. Scherzer and Porcello were due for there bad starts.

Agreed...like Grilli & Schlereth, this poor kid seems to be Leyland's new "guy"...shouldn't be in a close game and should've been left out to dry...

Porcello didn't pitch well, which was the problem in this game, but I just do NOT understand the thought process behind some of these in game management decisions. At least we didn't friggin' bunt three more times tonight.
Eliminating that Yankee odor since 2006!

Of the six runs charged to Porcello, only two were earned. The defense really sucked tonight. Wind sprints for the whole team.
