I Hate This Team

This team is not only bad, but completely and utterly not enjoyable. I can't even stand watching the games. If it's not one annoying or frustrating thing, it's another. I keep watching because that's what fans do, but this season is torture. 3-0 Seattle in the 4th with chance after chance for the Yankees wasted by Cano and Cabrera. Melky is a scrub right now. He is a negative VORP, useless waste of a roster space and he HAS to go down. We can do better and we HAVE to do better. The Red Sox lost and we can't cash in.

It's still early in the game, but it's painful. What happened to "Matsui's Best Year"? What happened to Cano's coming out? What happened to the ultra-patient and On Base nutso lineup that Abreu would contribute to? It doesn't exist and it's burying us along with the hamstrings of our starting pitchers. I hate this team.

Mike, I hear ya, the game was just excruciating tonite, but we are 7-4 so far in May, that's not totally awful. We've had some bad calls, balls hit right at people, tough luck. It'll get better. Keep the faith.

Mike,

I felt exactly like you do in 2005 when the Yankees were even worse.

I'm not ready to call it a season, but I agree with you: yesterday's game was not fun...

Let's win the next 2 against Seattle and hope Baltimore can win one or two against Boston....
