****Official Royals Vs Yankees Gamethread 5/16****

[SPchief]

Duffy on the mound, has to turn the corner tonight. But the pen is well rested.

Thinking about buying a brand new truck - any tips? Test drove the Ram - can't invest $45k in a Dodge - like the Tundra Crew Max but they get 12 mpg...

He would've been pulled at 97 pitches and two on if it was later in the game.

CC's 5.4 ERA coming into the game haven't really painted the right picture

he's been pretty good this year but has been roughed up in a few 7th innings ... so let's hope we can continue that trend

I'm thinking Girardi goes to Betances at the first sign of trouble though

and we aren't hitting Betances or Miller

hell, the only way to get to Betances is to take pitches and we all know the Royals don't do that

When you go to the Toyota dealership, keep your hands offa Jan or I'll end you.

Don't buy a Dodge. Never.

And once you get something with shitty gas mileage, filling up starts getting easier quickly actually. I'm learning this right now and I thought it'd be harder but I guess my give a **** on it's broken.

I don't know much about trucks but I like the Tundras you mentioned. How much would you drive it a day?

I love my GMC Sierra Crew Cab. I get 22mpg on the highway.

The Yankees are so ****ing old, I bet they have to piss every couple of innings....

Sorry, GE, I don't see it that way. Four runs in five innings is not good.

I agree that the ump was inconsistent, but good pitchers can handle that stuff.

I'm about ready to get rid of my 2010 F150. It's been a great truck, but 90,000 miles later it's time to find something new. I'll either get an aluminum F150 or Z71. The dodges are trash compared to those. The Tundra is close, but the rear doors/space on the quad cab isn't as good.

I've always liked Joe Blanton.

Usually truck would sit at KCI airport - probably 10k miles a year - I don't mind spending but I really like value. Fords Platinum line are very nice but damn Ford has a $10k premium compared to similarly loaded trucks
